1978 Ford F250 Crew Cab 4x4 - Rare Awesome Truck NO RESERVE!

Description

NO RESERVE! If you're reading this, you already know how awesome and rare this truck is. This is a 1978 Ford F250 Crew Cab 4x4. It has the 400 engine, very similar to the 351M, and the C6 automatic transmission. It has the column shifter. I bought this truck about 18 months ago and it has been my project. I do not have to sell it but I just feel it may be time to move on to other projects. It has new paint with a new front grill. It has new true dual exhaust with dual Flowmaster mufflers. The inside has been Rhino-lined. I have replaced much of the trim such as door panels, window handles, drip rails, side mirrors, and badges. It has the original seats but I had them recovered and had the Ford Logo embroidered on them. I replaced both fuel tanks with brand new ones, in addition to the fuel lines so you can be sure the carburetor is getting good clean gas. This truck came from the factory with Dana 44 axle in the front and Dana 60 axle in the rear. I upgraded to a HEI distributor. I replaced the floor pans, but this truck is not a rust bucket. I have the framed Marti report which shows this has always been a South Carolina truck. I believe it was used to haul race cars to the Laurens Motor Speedway in Laurens, SC. I also have the original build sheet which I found behind the dash and I also have it framed. I have driven this truck approximately 90 miles a few times, and it has never let me down. It has the factory power steering and it works great. I was considering changing the dash from the stock version to a diamond plate dash with new gauges so I have a brand new set of Dolphin gauges that go with the truck in addition to some Ford Racing valve covers and new valve cover gaskets.
This is a beast of a truck with a lot of great years left in her. My intentions were to build a slightly custom show truck but I'm ready to move on to other projects and I think its time for someone to enjoy this truck.
To go along with this classic truck, I'm throwing in my classic boat: 1967 Larson All-American w/ the original 60 HP Evinrude motor 15 ft with trailer. I had it tuned up last year and took it out last April. Ran great. Just add a battery and some gas.
Two American classics in one auction. Happy bidding and good luck!
