Not enough pictures.

Right. No where near enough. But let's preserve the two that are there, neither of which show the crewcab or the bed - which is supposed to be its claim to fame.

And here's the text:

This is the only short bed ‘Bull Nosed’ Ford crew cab that I am aware of. This is the only body style that Ford didn’t make a CCSB combo. Bed is 7 1/2 ft long, custom 35 gallon tank with external fuel pump.

Brand new headers and carb.

1-ton Dana 60 front

460 v8 big block runs great

Tow package w front and rear receiver hitches

Cons

No smog equipment on the truck, if needed must be added by buyer or registered as Classic Vehicle in Nevada. That's what I did.

Cracked dashboard. Could use some bodywork & paint. No rot or rust.

$11,000 OBO Might trade for another AWD car or truck.

You can see the rear door hinges in the interior picture, so definitely a crew cab. But as for the 7.5' bed, is that with the tailgate down?

Good point. Good ? on bed. Basically little to no info.

Looks like they did a little better ad.

Edit: a little pricey to me.

Wonder what the stripe is on the front of the bed. And it has two fuel fillers. Did short-beds come with two?

They cut down a longbed and made it into a shortbed. The stripe looks like primer to cover the seam. I'm sure there's a ton of Bondo in that section. There's NO way I would even touch this truck without crawling under and seeing how the frame cut was done, as well as the driveshaft shortening. If done incorrectly, either will be a bad time.

Agree. That looks very suspicious.

I honestly never did get the reason why people shorten frames... I like long beds!

If you're racing, sure... but otherwise? I digress.
