hello. I am in search of a truck that was for sale. bit of a long story. I was at the coop on 18th st. in the summer, and I saw the type of truck my son is looking to buy. when I went in, I saw the owner in line and started talking to him about it. he said he had another one that he would sell me. he asked for my number, so I told him and he dialed it on his phone and hit call. he then hung up and said that his number would be on my phone to call him. well, the call wasn't long enough so I never got his number. I have a pic of his truck he was driving. so I am asking if anyone knows the gentleman, if they could pass on that I am looking to get ahold of him. sorry for the long winded post, I thought I better explain myself before someone thought I was after him or something!!!  
thanks for your help

I used to live on the 600 block of 15th street, and when I turned south into my back lane off of McTavish Avenue between 14th and 15th street, there was that exact truck parked right there at that very house on the corner.  
 
To help, it would be the northwest corner lot on the 600 block of 14th street.

thanks for the reply. although the same color, not the same truck. but maybe that guy would sell his as well!! I remember the guy telling me that he did live in Brandon, and that the other truck he was selling was in his back yard. if that helps anyone.  
thanks again.

I tried. Wish I knew more but I'll keep one eye open.

That is one big ass truck! My brothers neighbor was selling one almost identical not too long ago. I think the engine may need rebuilt however and it is also located in Melville but I will call and ask and if its for sale I will get you a phone number.

thanks. not too worried about the work. I expect that that year of truck will need work. my son is 13 so this is his dream, and he wants us to work on it. if anyone is asking, we are looking for a 1994-97 ford f250/350 crewcab, longbox, 4x4 diesel. prefer a 5 speed manual, but by no means a deal breaker if its an auto. if its a gas, I can work with that also. we would just swap in a diesel.  
thanks

Another source may be Government of Canada Surplus. It is a Canada wide site where various government organizations liquidate assets they no longer need. Personally have picked up several items.  
 
A hobby of mine is to read ads. I bid low and have been able to pick up several items at a very good price. It is crown property. Descriptions are honest as poster has no personal agenda. '  
 
Hope this helps

Check bismanonline.com. I remember seeing a 92 or 93 f350 on there a couple days ago. Crew cab. 7.3. Cant remember the price. Think it was out of Dickinson ND. Might be worth checking out. Other than that all i can say is if you find one scoop it up cause theres lots of ppl looking for that exact truck.

I have seen a truck like this parked out at the duck barns on 17st east. At the second last barn on the south west side. Sure if you take a ride out there you would find it......seen it there lots....hope you find what you wanting.......I think the guy that owns it does something with putting in fake ice
