1985 FORD F250 BARN FIND 35K ORIGINAL MILES ARIZONA PATINA

Description

ORIGINAL SOUTHWEST JUST SHIPPED FROM ARIZONA. THIS IS A 1985 FORD F250, 4 WHEEL DRIVE WITH 32,000 MILES, I AM THE SECOND OWNER. THE5.8L ENGINE STARTS RIGHT UP AND IS SMOKE FREE, AND IS MATED TO AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH A SMOOTH SHIFTING TRANSFER CASE AND HAS LOCKOUT HUBS.THIS TRUCK WAS MUNICIPALLY OWNER SINCE NEW, AND PARKED IN STORAGE FOR MANY YEARS AFTER HAVING A CARBURATOR ISSUE.

EXTERIOR-ORIGINAL PAINT AND PATINA THROUGHOUT, AND IS WHAT A DRY SOUTHWESTERN TRUCK FROM ARIZONA THAT WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF SHOULD LOOK LIKE. THIN BAKED OFF PAINT ON THE TOP SIDES BUT STILL SMOOTH AND ROCK SOLID FENDERS, DOORS, ROCKER PANELS, BED AND TAILGATE. NO BROKEN OR FOGGY GLASS. THE ONLY BODY DAMAGE THAT I SEE ARE SOME SMALL DENTS NEAR THE HEADLIGHTS ONFRONT FENDERS. ALL HEADLIGHTS, MARKER LIGHTS, BRAKE LIGHTS, AND DASK LIGHTS WORK AS THEY SHOULD (EVEN THE DASK 4X4 LIGHT COMES ON WHEN IN 4X4 MODE). THE DOORS DO NOT SAG AND FIT TIGHTLY WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING JUST AS THEY SHOULD WITH A LOW MILAGE TRUCK. ALL BODY PANELS ARE ORIGINAL METAL AND THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER SEEN SALT. THE PAINT IS DULL AND FADED AND IM PRETTY SURE IT HAS NEVER BEEN BUFFED OR WAXED, YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE WHAT YOU ARE GETTING.

INTERIOR- LOOKS VERY NICE WITH THE ORIGINAL SEAT COMING VERY CLEAN WITH SOME DEEP CLEANING. THE DASH PAD TOP IS CRACKED AND COVERED WITH A DASH CARPET, BUT THE DASH FACE, GAUGES AND INSTRUMENTS ARE ALL VERY NICE. ALL GUAGES (GAS, OIL, AMP, SPEEDO)WORK PROPERLY. TURN SIGNALS WORK AND LIGHT UP IN THE DASH.FACTORY BLACK VINYL MAT ON FLOOR.

MECHANICAL- STRONG AND QUIET RUNNING5.8L 4 BARREL THAT I JUST INSTALLED A NEW HOLLY REPLACEMENT CARBURATOR. DURING THE CARB REPLACEMENT I REMOVED ALL OF THE ORIGINAL FACTORY SMOG/AIR PUMP EQUIPMENT AND SAVED FOR THE NEW OWNER. THE ORIGINAL EXHUAST AIR TUBES LOOK LIKE BRAND NEW AND EASILY UNSCREWED OUT OF THE EXHUAST MANIFOLDS. THE TRUCK DRIVES AND RIDES VERY SOLID AND WAS USED FOR SHORT TRIPS BY THE MUNICIPAL SCHOOL DISTRIC ONLY. PRETTY SURE THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE HAS NOT BEEN USED MUCH AT ALL, IF EVER. THE TRUCK STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL EXHAUST SYSTEM ON IT AS WELL.

THIS TRUCK WILL MAKE AN EXCELLENT DAILY DRIVER OR CUSTOM BUILD, PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, THANK YOU.
