In the age of cell phones, it’s always a little surprising when a seller claims their vehicle is a “barn find” but there are no photos of the vehicle in the actual barn. You would think someone would take a minute to snap at least one or two pictures of it before it is hauled out of its resting spot. Well, this 1960 Ford F-250 appears to be the real-deal (shed find at least). It is located in El Cajon, California and can be found for sale here on eBay with a current bid just over $1,700. The seller includes several photos of the truck with years of dust on it, then some good photos of it in the daylight after a light cleaning. Let’s take a look at this awesome truck and let us know what you think.

The interior is dusty from storage, but will probably clean up well. You can tell it has an aftermarket Hurst-style shifter and gauges under the dash. There isn’t much information in the ad other than it is believed to be a California truck. The transmission fluid doesn’t show on the dipstick, but the engine is said to run. The ad says it’s a “very rare” V8 long bed automatic. I’m not sure what the production numbers are, but this combination doesn’t seem to rare to me? Maybe an automatic transmission in a 3/4-ton truck is the rare part? Unfortunately, the only photo of the engine is blurry but you can make out what looks to be an aftermarket intake and carburetor, which is confirmed by the ad. The seller believes it to be a 352, but it’s hard to tell. It does appear to have power steering and brakes, which will help the drivability of the truck a whole bunch.

The tires are 33 x 12.50’s which are mounted on cool slotted mag-style wheels. The truck also features custom front and rear bumpers. These trucks have huge body panels, which can be difficult to bodywork, but with the amazing patina on this truck, maybe the new owner will drive it as-is. What direction would you take this project if it was yours?
