Car description |

IT HAS IT'S ORIGINAL 300 4.9 LITER INLINE 6 CYLINDER ENGINE WITH 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION.
IT HAS 132,536 ORIGINAL MILES.
POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES.
IT WAS PURCHASED NEW AT TWIN FORD SALES IN STUART VA.. THIS DEALERSHIP WAS LOCATED ABOUT 2 HOURS FROM MY DEALERSHIP NEAR THE NORTH CAROLINA & VIRGINIA BORDER AND IS NOW CLOSED.
THIS TRUCK WAS OWNED BY AN ELDERLY GENTLEMAN AND SAT FOR SOME YEARS ONLY BEING DRIVEN ON OCCASION. SO, SOME REPAIRS WERE NEEDED TO GET IT ROAD WORTHY. THEY HAVE BEEN COMPLETED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER AND ARE AS FOLLOWS.
SHOCKSTIRES AND WHEELS ( I DO NOT HAVE THE ORIGINALS)EXHAUST SYSTEMTUNE UPREPACKED THE FRONT HUB BEARINGS AND REPLACED PARTS WHERE NEEDED.
THE INTERIOR WAS FRESHENED UP WITH THE FOLLOWING
THE SEAT WAS PROFESSIONALLY RECOVEREDNEW RUBBER FLOOR MATDASH COVERLAYNEW HEADLINERNEW DOOR SEALS
THIS TRUCK STARTS RIGHT UP ON TIME. EVERY TIME.
THE MOTOR DOESN'T SMOKE OR MAKE ANY FUNNY NOISES.
THE CLUTCH IS GOOD AND TIGHT AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS AS IT SHOULD.
THE TRANSFER CASE AND HUBS WORK FLAWLESS LIKE THEY SHOULD.
ALL GAUGES WORK AS THEY SHOULD.
THE INTERIOR LIGHTS HAVE BEEN REFURBISHED WITH NEW DOOR SWITCHES LIGHTS AND BULBS AND NOW WORK PROPERLY.
THE RADIO IS NOT WORKING AT THIS TIME. (PREVIOUS OWNER REMOVED SPEAKERS.)
I HAVE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUALS AND WARRANTY CARD ALSO.
NEW VIRGINIA SAFETY INSPECTION.
IT RUNS STRAIGHT, RIDES SMOOTH, AND DRIVES VERY WELL FOR A TRUCK THAT IS 40 YEARS OLD.
IT'S DEFINITELY A HEAD TURNER.
THIS IS NOT A FULLY RESTORED TRUCK. IT WILL HAVE SOME FLUID LEAKS AND OTHER BLEMISHES THAT SHOULD BE EXPECTED FROM A 40 YEAR OLD TRUCK.
ALL IN ALL THIS IS A GREAT ENTRY LEVEL TRUCK TO CRUISE AND IS RELIABLE FOR EVERYDAY USE.
IT APPEARS TO HAVE VERY MINIMAL RUST.
THE CAB CORNERS AND BOTH FLOORBOARDS ARE RUST FREE.
ALL BRACES UNDER HOOD ARE ORIGINAL AND RUST FREE.
CAB SUPPORTS, AND ROCKERS ARE ORIGINAL AND RUST FREE AS WELL.
THE BED UNDER THE BEDLINER WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SOME PAINT RUBBING IS RUST FREE.
THE DRIVER BOTTOM DOOR INSIDE SEAM LOOKS TO HAVE HAD A REPAIR AND IS RUST FREE.
THERE IS SOME SMALL AMOUNT OF RUST UNDER THE BOTTOM OF THE PASSENGER DOOR ON THE INSIDE SEAM.
THE ROOF HAS A COUPLE OF DENTS.
THE FRAME IS SOLID AND SHOWS NO SIGNS OF REPAIR OR RUST.
THE PREVIOUS OWNER TOLD MEIT WAS REPAINTED ABOUT 5 YEARS AGOIN IT'S ORIGINAL BAHAMA BLUE COLO, PRIOR TO HIM BUYING IT.
IT WAS NOT A SHOW QUALITY JOB BUT, A DRIVER QUALITY ONE.
THERE ARE SOME PLACES WHERE THE PAINT IS STARTING TO POP FROM UNDERNEATH. MAINLY A FEW TINY SPOTS ON THE LEFT REAR AND SMALL PLACES ON THE HOOD.
THE PAINT IS STILL THERE . JUST WANTED TO MENTION SO NO SURPRISES.
