WOW!! Thank You for sharing. The Interior and engine compartment are as nice as the exterior!


...don't think because my ancestors came to the US from Holland back in 1653 that I'm prejudiced and only like Bumps from the Netherlands...

Haha , well , maybe a bit ... .
Yes , she is a good looking lady , and here in Holland she is quite rare because here are more F100's from before 1964 and also Chevy's are more popular overhere . It's just great to drive a V8 !!
So you say Bump to your trucks ?

Yup! It's a term that defines our trucks. The following terms help us all differentiate production run differences between these three groups, and they primarily refer to external body line differences:

'61 - '66 = smooth external body lines = Slick

'67 - '72 = convex external body line = Bump

'73 - '79 = concave external body line = Dent

Hope this helps!

...well...hmm...ahhh... kinda hard to describe my Bump, especially when it's compared to yours.

I guess the best way to describe my Bump is it's a thrown together, low dollar, hodge podge of mismatched parts with various multiple other Bump parts thrown in, left to simmer on the stove until burnt and than driven with God as my co-pilot.

If I even had a camera, I wouldn't want to scare other members here with pictures of it's questionable appearance. It's a 1970 in theory only.

The Great thing about it is it runs like it looks and on "Trash Day", I can't leave it next to the curb for fear it'd be hauled away.

...but LOVE IT, I DO!!!
