Up for you consideration is my 1991 Ford F-350 2wd Dually. I took this in trade with the plans to overhaul it and make it a tow rig for my show car. Unfortunately we are already in mid October with winter approaching quickly and my time working on the truck is being cut short. That is the only reason for sale, both my garage bays are occupied and working outside in the cold is not an option. The Ford is turn key and ready to go in its current state, however I would recommend some small things to be done before making this a daily driver. First let me start with what i consider good on the truck: (4) brand new rear tires (235/85/16) Firestone Transforce A/T paid just over $650 for them not even a month ago.(2) Newer Motorcraft batteries from ford. 10 months old now paid $350 (see pictures)New positive battery cables $80New Alternator $97New Steering box $160New Brake lines $ 50 (I still have one line new in the bag ready to replace haven't done it because its not leaking and in good shape)Coolant changed with Fleet charged antifreeze $75 (no need to worry about sca levels)Transmission fluid just changed with mercon fluid (15 quarts) $80Fuel Filter wix $50Brand new low pressure power steering line $40New Power steering Fluid $10Brake Fluid Flush $40 (see the picture of the fluid condition)Brake pads front $25 (not installed yet haven't got to them, they still have 30% left)(2) Axle Pivot Bushings (not installed yet) $30All new Injectors $300All new Glow plugs $140Frame is clean!Upper and lower balljoints are good THE TRUCKS NEGIVITVES ARE: Paint ( it was repainted at one point and the prep work wasn't done well, its flacking and chipping please see pictures. She still looks good and presentable but the real fix would be a repaint)Dings and Dents (they can be found here and there on the truck as it was used before as a work truck)Scratches (loading and unloading, its the nature of the beast)Driver side window motor is bad.Upholstery on driver side seat is rippedNeeds (2) new front tires Needs Alignment (replaced steering box so steering is not centered)Passenger side valve cover is leaking oil, its a slow leak that runs down the back of the head down to that starter area and eventually drips to the ground. very little drip no puddles ( easy do it yourself fix)needs rear brake shoes (I haven't got to them yet but will be included with purchase)Rear dually tubs need fiberglass work. ( they have nicks and cracks I rattle canned the passenger side one black for the time being might get to the driver side if the weather doesn't get colder)Rear tail gate handle broke (this just happened) Exhaust needs work ( use to have stacks but previous owner removed them and returned it to rear tire exit, very easy fix for a muffler shop) Has cheesy aftermarket grillTPS sensor is quirky, needs changedDoors have to be shut "hard" to close them. Never tested the rear tank (might get to it soon) so it may or may not work? I only use frontand just other little quirks related to a 24 year old truck. Some common questions and answers that might help you: Will this truck drive to California or any other State? I believe you could with my only concern being the rear brakes as they are worn and stopping power is reduced, and the front 2 tires are iffy. But if you are familiar with a youtube channel called "roadkill" (they literally drive junk yard cars across the country) you will quickly see why i would personally have no issues doing a trip Why am I selling this? As previously mentioned this truck was purchased primarily to tow my car to shows and track events, With the cold weather approaching in a hurry and the race season is over i will not have the space or time to finish tinkering with it. Its a big truck that takes almost half my driveway! Can I see this in person? Absolutely! I encourage all local bidders to come see it in person. Just send me a message via Ebay and we can set a time for you to come out. Is there any warrantee or guarantee on the truck? The Answer is "YES" and "NO" let me explain. Since I am selling this Ford as my personal vehicle and not a one from a Dealer or Lot, I personally cannot give the new owner any warrantee or guarantees in the trucks mechanical or cosmetic condition. It will be sold as is where is. But i will be happy to provide the invoices and receipts to all the items i have purchased so that the new owner will have access to manufacture and store warranties assoicated with them. For example, if the steering box decided to fail, you the buyer could take the invoice along with the steering box to the store where purchased, and get a replacement for free. Will I ship the truck? If the buyer arranges for shipping after payment has been received and cleared, I will aid with buyers shipping company. How do I accept payments? I will accept cash in person, paypal for the deposit, cashier or bank checks as well. but all payments must clear before new buyer takes possession. How bad is the Rust? Actually you will surprised to hear that it is very minimal! small surface spots here and there.... but for a new England Ford this truck is clean! come take a look for your self. Who would this truck be perfect for? Anyone! it would be great as a work truck, awesome for a modified low riding dually, make it a ramp truck, a farm truck, a huge grocery getter etc.... list goes on! I hope these answer a few of the questions you might have on the truck. Please feel free to contact me and ask other questions you might have. This truck is a great candidate to be put back to work, or made into a lowered tow toy.... that choice is yours. This is the the last of the easy to work on diesel engines! you can virtually do all repairs and maintenance on this old idi yourself with basic hand tools; and that is a beautiful piece of engineering by international! I just feel the truck is not a cream puff, and not quite a basket case... its got personality :) I think they call these "10 footers" in the classic car scene. They are very presentable, but up close is when you start seeing the flaws and such. no garage queen here. I have sold on here before a few years back (a 1972 VW Thing) and it went flawlessly. So I'm trying again. My buy it now price reflects all the work I put into this rig, and I believe to be a very fair price for a diesel dually. All parts not installed currently will be included with sale. I will entertain offers, but only to serious buyers with good feedback record. Thank you for taking the time to read this novel of a listing!
