1979 FORD F-250 XLTLess than 82,000 original miles!Great running 460 V8 w/ 4 barrel!Drive home! Here it is folks--the tough old pickup you've been looking for! This survivor Ford is in way above average condition. It's been on a farm for the last few years, and throughout its life it was mostly a summer vehicle. I believe it's only had 2 or 3 owners. The Ford starts and runs great. It has a new fuel pump, new brake line, and 1 new tire. In the last year it received new exhaust and new brakes all around. It comes with a ladder rack that is easily removed. About the worst of the rust is the cab corners and a little above the rear wheel wells. I believe the other rust spots are generally surface rust. The bed has a few very small rust holes, but nothing major. See the photos. The lower passenger side of the box is dented, as you can see in the photos. These dents would probably pop out fairly easily and the sheet metal is still strong in this spot. This truck received Ziebart rust proofing when new, and I think that is why it has survived as well as it has. I believe all of the electrical except for the horn works. The AM/FM cassette radio works well! There currently is no trailer lights hook-up, but there is a 2" trailer hitch ball on the heavy duty ag bumper. This truck would be the ideal pulling vehicle! This is a NO RESERVE auction. Please only bid if you have the money now and are ready to buy. Bidders with an eBay feedback rating of below 5 please contact me through the eBay Message System before bidding so that I can verify your good business intentions. Failure to do so may cause your bid to be cancelled. Please remember that you are bidding to own this truck; you are not bidding to come take a look at it to decide if you'd like to own a 34 year old pickup. This truck is not new, it is not perfect. But for what it is, I believe it is quite solid. Enjoy the auction! People in the area are more than welcome to contact me for a test drive. The truck does come with a spare tire and rim. The front driver's side tire is new and the other 3 are older, but still seem decent enough (they're not all cracked up and weather checked). I wouldn't worry about driving it home. This would be a great truck to restore, or just drive as is. Happy Motoring! Enjoy the auction! On Jul-01-13 at 19:46:52 PDT, seller added the following information: Couple items I forgot to note: The pickup is running off the front tank only. The switch was faulty that switches it from front to rear gas tank, so I just ran it off the front tank only. Gas guage works great. Also, the power steering pump leaks a bit. This is pretty common with this vintage truck from my experience. I just top off the power steering fluid once a month and it seems to be fine. Enjoy the auction!
