A little ad I made for the truck.
1956 Ford F250 Long bed
223 ci 6cyl , 3 speed manual on the column
Dana 60 rear with 4.88:1 gears
Tires are new circa 2009 w/ plenty of life left. Truck tires.
Engine purrs!
Bought truck from friend of original owner. Have trade-in sales slip when purchased new from Ford. Truck was used to haul a 250 gal diesel tank to sites and fuel up equipment. Name on door is real and not fake patina. Note pads and other letter heads w/ company name on it included w/ sale.
Purchased truck in 2008. Redid brakes and basic tune up to put truck on the road. Radiator is new Desert Cooler. Truck runs and drives great. Hate to sell but I dont use it as much as I'd like too. Fires up every time! Everything works.
Engine looks to have been rebuilt prior to sitting in '84 based on rod cap stampings and fresh cross hatches in cylinder bores. I do not know anything other than that regarding who, what, & when of engine build.
Included with sale:
Good used OE Ford fenders, long bed running boards, hood, grille & valance.
Bedwood cut to this bed
NOS dash wiring, bed chains and some other misc items.
No its not perfect in a shinny sense although, I'm not asking 20k+. It does however, have loads of character that a restored shinny truck cant provide! People of all life forms love this truck. You will get attention.
Asking $7,400 obo with all parts included
Also have a 292/ 312 engine and 3speed w/ OD trans
