1985 F250 4X4 one owner w/29,000 original miles

Rembrant
I love seeing these low mile one owner trucks coming out of places like Idaho.

Love the color combo on this one as well. This thing doesn't look like it was worked much.

I guess the holes in the roof mean that it had a visor on it at some point...

Those holes in the roof will easily turn that $8k truck into a $1k truck if they aren't sealed properly. These cabs will rot from the inside out if left like that.

I like the look of visors, but I would never put one on my truck for that reason.

Agreed. I've seen the roof of Bullnose cabs rotted out without having had visors installed. I've never been much of a fan of visors myself, but I know a lot of people do love them. My old 1980 Bullnose I had years ago had a roof spoiler on the back of the cab, and although it was sealed well, it was full of screws too. It was on the truck when I bought it, so I left it alone. It's not something that I would have installed personally.

Yep, my old cab never had a visor but it did have a poorly sealed cb antenna hole as well as failed drip rail sealant and so it was rotting away on the inside.
