Did drive a '96 F-150 5 speed with the 300 cid I6, was nice and torquey back in the day. I ended up though with an Eddie Bauer F-150 5 speed with a 302, short bed, short cab, dual tanks. I wouldn't turn down any of the 90 - 96 F-150s, they were a solid truck. If I find one with a 351 Windsor it may end up in my garage, although I do not believe one could get the 351 with a manual. Good luck in your quest.
