  • In this episode of What The Truck? we chat with Riley over at @hodsonmotors about his one-of-a-kind 1964 F250.
    This 64' F250 is far from original with an F600 front end treatment, an F800 firetruck roof, a unibody big back window, custom made bed with widened & lengthened fenders rolling on 38" tires powered with a Ford Racing 460ci V8

      @@FordEra Beautiful build! A great balance between retro and mod. Raised roof, MD F series fenders, widened bed and rear fenders... all subtle touches that look like the belong. One suggestion: take that forest surface badge off and clearcoat it... If you let it tarnish it will kinda disappear. I like the way it attracts attention as is!

      Stepside was Chevy's term for a narrowbed but it became a generic term by truck enthusiasts for narrowbeds from other manufacturers as well.
      GMC called them fendersides, Ford, flaresides, and Dodge called them utilines.

    Hello Soloman thats a really cool truck. I had a 1964 F850 Super Duty, (the original super duty) tandem axle tractor. it had Bostrom seats but it didn't have the tall cab. and I bounced my head off the headliner quite a few times. It was a pretty cool old truck, it was a gas pot with a 534ci V8 and six speed automatic transmission. I had a 40' flatbed trailer for it, but the person I was going to contract it to went out of business so I sold it. this video brought back quite a few memories thanks brother.

    Great truck! I think that it truly is an F-250. I say that because you have a leaf spring suspension in the front. I had a 1966 F100 4x4 short wheelbase stepside. Mine had coil spring suspension in the front (same through 1979) and a single speed transfer case. You guys really did an EXCELLENT job on that resto.
