Someone shared this beautiful photo from 1967 in the Fordification Facebook group recently.This got me inspired to dig into the history of my truck once again and see if I can track down any of it's previous owners and talk to them, maybe even get an old picture of it! That would be awesome!
In the meantime I thought it would be cool to start a thread with pictures of Bumpsides from when they were new or slightly used cars in the 60s - 70s. Doesn't have to be your truck. Just cool old photos!
PS: I did a search but surprisingly I could`t find a thread like this yet. If there is already one, please let me know, would love to see it!
Here you go... 1969 F250 Camper special with a camper!

Out of order, I show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I'd show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too [censored]' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I'd take a FLAMETHROWER to this place! Out of order? Who the hell do you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know?..And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, [censored] YOU TOO! - Lt Col. Frank Slade

How COOL is that?! That's beyond awesome! Love the picture and that you still got the truck now! Few people can tell such a story about their truck. Congrats!
I know this is not a bump... more of a ridge side but I had to share.
this was my first truck I ever bought. 1972 Courier was born a white GTE (general telephone) company truck. someone painted it brown.
I paid $1,100 for it and that was too much....I tried to make it off road... I installed a lift kit, rims and tires, light bar, brush guard, stereo, etc. All the things a 19 year old does.
nobody ever had trouble finding me at night with those KC hi-lighters
I thrashed it about in the desert for quite awhile. amazingly I never broke anything. it was a pretty tough little Ford (I mean Mazda). that little 4 banger 4 speed did its best to keep up... with the mini bikes.
This photo was taken circa 1979 at El Mirage dry lake bed which is near Victorville California. Right after a rain, it was slippery as snot and tons of fun
