1970 Ranger XLT. I am 2nd Owner of this truck. It was bought and used as a furniture delivery truck in western mountains of Virginia. It was used local and driven very little over the years. It was parked in 1997 and stored until 2012 when I purchased it. The truck is fully documented with 46,100 original miles. I have almost every year that it was inspected and mileage was documented each time. Also, the 1997 inspection sticker is still on the windshield. I have all the literature with the truck, power train warranty card, owners manual, inspections checklist, maintenance records, and factory truck literature. The truck was thankfully stored in a garage from 1997 to 2012 or it would be junk now. Once I got the truck home, I installed a new fuel cell, did a complete tune up, and it fired right up. I put all new wheel bearings and seals in each of the four axles, new power break master cylinder, all new breaks (power drum) in each wheel. The tires had no dry rot, but had flat spots, so I installed 4 new Cooper Discoverer (M&S - Mud and Snow) 245/75R/16 Tires. After that, I only had to change a few light bulbs. The truck is tight, drives straight, stops straight, and is ready now to drive daily. I drive the truck local each week. This is a truck that would be perfect to drive as is or fully restore to make show quality due to how original it is with low miles. Options: this is a behind the seat fuel tank delete! The truck has the factory fuel cell under the bed with factory tool box behind the seat. I have owned many of these trucks and this is the first one I have ever seen with this option. Manuel 3 speed w/ Dana 60 rear end powered by 360V8. Truck drives and shifts great. Truck has factory clearance lights on the top (they work), rear cargo light (works), back up lights work (almost never the case). Even the interior lights work (even when both doors open) so it has been well preserved. The truck does have surface rust but now major rot. The only exception is the two front cab mounts need to be replaced. They cost about 40.00 each and labor would be about 150.00 to install so that could be fixed for about 230.00 to 250.00. No modifications have been made to this truck as it has same 4 hub caps as it came with, original paint, carpet, motor, trans, and rear end. Also, when you look at 1967 - 1972 (same body as this truck) on e-bay motors, you never find more that about 10 or less of this at one time. Also, all of these are for sale on the West coast, so finding them on the East coast (in the South) is particularly hard to find these days. Truck has a very fair and firm reserve price. If you want to contact me (if you are a serious buyer) to set up a time to inspect/drive truck, then please feel free to call. I hate to sell this truck, but I am almost finished with a 1966 C-10 and I want to finish. This is not a must-sell situation, so if reserve is not met, I have no issues with keeping. Thanks for looking at my 1970 Ranger XLT F-250. Contact Mark with questions at (828) 755-4642.
