Not all of our Ford trucks have been red, but a lot of them certainly have! Here's the 1969 F-600 flatbed dump (factory Ford bed!) and 1985 F-350 diesel:

The F-600 is really badly faded, the bumper and grille had been primed in this picture. Sold it when we left NY, 391 V-8 and 4 speed would've made for a miserable trip. The F-350 lives on the farm now, still works hard, 6.9L International V-8 diesel, 4 speed T19 transmission, 2WD.

I had this 1993 F-250 diesel for a while:

7.3L International V-8 diesel, ZF5 overdrive transmission, 4WD, excellent pickup truck. Started having "transmission problems" and the shop told me it wasn't worth fixing, turned out to just be totally worn out clutch linkage bushings for the push rod to the master cylinder. Sold it to a guy who wanted to plow with it after it pinholed the oil cooler and sprayed oil everywhere. Seen above moving a blue 1984 Ford Ranger factory diesel!

So these jewels while traveling last week. Construction outfit seemed to only run fords. No emissions, no electronics and work gets done. 
 

Real easy trucks to work on.

What could be better (IMO)- a Louisville with spokes!  Where were these right hand Fords built

This one was Built in Brisbane, Prior to 1989 Louisvilles were Built in Melbourne.
