Vehicle Detail
LOW RESERVE! 6.0L Engine threw a rod through the block, needs at least a short block. I have not tried to start it since it let go and I wont try. The bed in the pictures does not go with the truck. I have done a bunch of work on this truck in the last 6 months transforming it into a family hauler. Ran great before the engine blew. Trans shifted fantastic and 4x4 worked great. Tows like an animal, I put 8k behind it and it was like I was towing a lawn tractor. This would be a great truck to toss a Cummins in or possibly a 7.3L. This truck has new Ford head gaskets, ARP head studs instead of the problematic Ford bolts, EGR delete kit, new Ford oil cooler and oil screen, CAT ELC red coolant, new aftermarket water pump (lifetime warranty), new glow plug harnesses, new ford fuel filters, new fuel pressure regulator kit (blue spring), Ford oil filter and 5-40 Rotella. This truck is an XL trim truck but I took out the nasty original seats and put in seats and a center console out of an XLT. The seats and console are tan and the reat of the interior is grey but it doesn't look bad. The seats almost match, just slightly different pattern and they are cloth. The LF seat is power but the forward and reverse does NOT work at this point but the rest of the functions do. Manual windows, locks and towing mirrors, non tilting column. Has working A/C. Nicer Ford radio, has radio data that tells you what song is on if your station supports it, I have not tested the CD or cassette. Has 6 retread tires on it, 5 match ,one is different, the tread is very deep and aggressive and do vibrate a bit a highway speed. The tires are the stock size 225/70-19.5. Included in the BUY IT NOW price are 6 Michelin highway tread tires in good shape. If you don't want the Michelins I would take $500 off, or sell them to you for $500 more on the auction ending price. The RF fender has a dent near the front and a few wrinkles near the badge. The RR door has a dent in it. The body has very little rust, just a few surface spots under.. The front bumper has a small gouge in the chrome and in the plastic. This truck has a rebuilt title. There is no visible frame damage or repair that I can see. Autocheck shows water damage back in 04 but I certainly couldn't see any evidence. I am sure there are other imperfections that I have missed. 4.88 gears in the super heavy duty axles. Rated to tow 17100lbs. GVWR of 15000lbs. The title is a Vermont Rebuilt title and I have it clear in hand. BED SHOWN IN PICTURES DOES NOT GO WITH THE TRUCK! I am keeping the bed for my new truck. I request a $500 deposit and the balance in cash or check funded from a well known bank or I will hold the truck until the check is known to clear (too many scams out there, sorry) If there are any other questions feel free to ask. Serious bidders can call me at 802-782-2279, leave a message and I will get back to you. I am going on vacation on the 23rd and wont be back until the 2nd of July, so pickup will have to take place after that or first thing on the 23rd only, I have to leave the house in the morning. Currently located in Fletcher Vermont, will need to be towed. Can assist in loading with my tractor. The truck is around 22ft long and has a 176" wheel base so plan accordingly.
