Seat belts didn't become an option until the second generation, and visibility wasn't the greatest in those first trucks. You won't see power windows, doors or seats, and what was regarded as comfortable back then would be a hard-sell in any contemporary pickup. But they were pure truck, and owning one is on the to-do lists of Ford truck fans throughout the world.
