This one is for sale in a little town near me. I think it started life as a 72 f100. :? but it is now "The Phantom". Sorry about the pic quality

Capitola?! Lucky!!!! That's my favoritest place ever :D
It's nice there isn't it! When I met Kasie she lived on the hill behind Capitola Village, so I've been on many walks through that area.

Gosh that's excellent (on both counts)! What are the odds huh!?

Classic! That's an amusing coincidence, considering the infinitesimally small number of Bumpsides randomly spotted, photographed, and posted in this thread.

Today Kasie and I drove by this Bumpside on Highway 101 just north of Prunedale. Kasie took these photos with her iPhone. Y'all can click on them for 800x600 versions.

Good afternoon Papabug71 and Hazelnut!

That's exactly what it seems to be--I can tell for sure by checking the quantity and density of its repair bills. :)

It does look similar to #50 doesn't it! It's the same color and has the same funny-looking, stick-out mirrors.

Wow!
One month since this one was "bumped". :D
Here we go:

On a car lot about 15 miles from me. I think I looked at this truck last year, (but maybe was a different color then)?

Image

On another car lot, (also about 15 miles from me). The grass was grown up 2 feet around her today when I passed by! :eek:

Image

And the 67 stepper in Lakeland that we looked real hard at:

Image

They're all fur sale, anybody interested just give me a shout. I see so many bumps here everyday, just can't get to the camera fast enough. :(

This one's just out of town.

There are a lot of bumps and dents around here. I usually see them driving the opposite direction and can't get a picture.

Was going thur some of my photobucket pics(took these last spring while cleaning out the garage) and found one that qualifies for this thread. If you look in the upper right corner you can see my neighbor lady across the streets truck. IIRC it's a '70 model her late husband bought the truck second hand at a local Ford dealer. This truck is virtually untouched( I think she told that she had the motor rebuilt) and she drives it weekly.

Yup. I assume it moves under it's own power, but no idea what the actual condition is like. I like it though. Peering through the windows (over the wall) interior looks good. :D
