looks like it would be a pretty easy clean up. it would be a good work truck.

Its not something worth dumping a ton of money into but it could be a good work truck or beater truck.

'87 F150's just arent worth much even in good shape.

Anything is worth restoring that you want to put your money into. Around DFW these older Ford and Broncos are starting to be sought after. I love that body style.

Honestly, its not a year model that i like the looks of. I like the 1969 and earlier models but not anything above 1969. I would put some money into it and make it a work truck for sure, but i wouldnt totally redue it like i would an older, more antique looking model.
