A 4-speed manual! Nice! Well, keep taking good care of that beast, it is one fine truck. My dad used to have a 77 F-100 with the I6 and the 3-speed manual. Unfortunately the rust killed that truck. But it sure was a beauty!
He also used to have an 84 with the I6 and a 4-speed manual too:
Man that is a beauty! What engine and trans does it have? How many miles? Looks really clean for up north! I'm guessing that's an only summer and nice weather truck. Keep it running forever! I love old trucks!
I had a soft tonneau cover on mine, came with the truck when I got it. I was a pain in the neck to take on and off. I got sick and tired of that and just picked up a really nice tool box instead. Much much better! A lot of room for all my stuff, locks, and I still have my bed open for hauling stuff. Win win situation in my opinion.
