1976

We spent the weekend in Camden, South Carolina working on a home improvement project for Carol's sister and her husband. In the middle of the afternoon we determined we would be a few pieces of wood short. We had to head to Columbia, South Carolina to get what we needed. When we parked we noticed this truck a few spaces over in the parking lot. 


It is a 1976 Ford pickup truck in excellent restored condition. I say restored because I doubt this color was available back then. 


The interior was also very nicely done. 


The truck bed had been lightly used. A few minor scratches. 


A view of the rear. 

As we were walking away the owner was walking toward us and wanted to know if we were interested in buying. We talked a few minutes about old trucks and told him what a nice one he had. He never mentioned a price and we didn't ask. Another vehicle just isn't in the budget.

  1. A quick check to see the available colors for a 76 Ford, and yes, a yellow was available. Around my neck of the woods, specifically, Uncle Ed's region, no yellow trucks were around.
