dhill_cb7 ◊ 2021-03-06 23:16	250 never came with overdrive. Edit: here is a 1/2 with overriders https://www.smartmotorguide.com/L49683470 Link to "www.ford-trucks.com" Another. It has the 250 bed aka the long bed. That is why the overriders are present. Quote 1956 Ford F-100- First year for 8 ft. Long Bed on 1/2 ton chassis. Changing. -- Last edit: 2021-03-06 23:23:28
