Gary Lewis Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 They have another longer cab handle (also w/ all the hardware) But I have my eyes open to the flat Ford ones. I had intended to go to the truck yard down the road from my brothers Carolina house, but all those plans changed with the Covid and the riots. I appreciate the intent. The virus has scuppered a lot of plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdWrknTrk Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I appreciate the intent. The virus has scuppered a lot of plans. Well the whole give it back... or pay it forward plan hinged on my being a mile or so from that big truck dismantling place. But I'm not driving 700 miles to pull a pair of handles. I could buy NOS for what it would cost in gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No? I may be looking for the inside ones as well. Didn't someone post about how he'd done it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArdWrknTrk Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 You found that in the middle of the night? Where? On a truck still in service? You are teasing me! I taunt you with the RED accents on Big Blue, but I'd never tease. I'm not that kinda girl. I put out! 🤫 Yup! I might have to buy an entire, perfectly functional, F600 dump for $2,000 but I found the 19" handles. That 2V 370 purrs like a kitten! So what if I swap some tubular stainless handles on and flip the truck ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what if I swap some tubular stainless handles on and flip the truck ? I had to flatbed it because it's not registered. 2k is a great deal for a clean truck this size with fully functional hydraulics... even all the lights work when we put a 'shop' battery in. Maybe I should keep it so Li'l Red would have a big brother to protect her? And I would have an '80-'86 truck of my own. The interior is dirty, but complete and unbroken.
