Can you spot the Bullnose in this pile?

Rembrant
So I came out of the gas station this afternoon, and there was a truckload of crushed cars parked on the side of the road directly in front of me. I spotted a couple of Fords, and what looked to be a tutone Supercab 4x4...



And, from being an avid Gary's Garagemahal reader, I could also tell that this Bullnose was a 1985 model, correct?...lol.

Yes, probably an early '85.  But, there was some discussion of late about that trim being used on late '85 and maybe even '86 F250's.  However, my bet would have been with you - early '85.

Yeah, you and Lariat85 were discussing it in the thread below, that's where I learned about the trim. Otherwise I would never have known.

The crushed truck above was an F250, so maybe it was an 86. Who knows.
