Vehicle Detail

1979 F-150 Custom 2009 Frame off restoration (with start-up, idling, and revving walk-around video--LINK at bottom) NO RESERVE AUCTION!! I bought this truck at an area swap meet last summer from the original owner but now wish to part with it because I am trying to become a 1st time homeowner. I hate to see this go, but it gives the opportunity for someone else to enjoy it as much as I have. It is one awesome truck that always gets compliments wherever she goes. The truck has 1,122 miles since the frame-off restoration in 2009. 54,149 miles are on the odometer (and original body.) Here are the spec's: Frame off restoration (completed 2009) of a 1979 Ford F-150 “Custom” Garage kept for 31 years, no rust (interior, exterior, or undercarriage) The following has also been done in 2009 in addition to the frame off restoration: Completely rebuilt V8 5.0L engine from an ’89 Mustang w/less than 1,000 miles • AOD transmission swap (YES IT GETS 23MPG BECAUSE OF THE 3.50 REAR END) • New 7,000$ 2 tone paint job (light jade/dark jade) • New gas tank • New tailgate New rear bumper, triple plated nickel • New radiator, battery, alternator • MSD ignition • New wheel cylinders, brake lines, brakes, fuel pump, fuel lines • New shocks • Heavy duty leaf springs • Dual FLOWMASTER exhaust • Chrome American Racing rims with Firestone Firehawk tires • New tonneau cover • New Fuel sending unit in 2010 New radiator bypass hose 2010 Questions: Call or text 330 212 9979 (or simply just contact me on this listing) *A lot of the receipts for work done to this truck (frame off, engine swap, paint, etc) are with the original owner still; his house got hit by a tornado and I figured I would give him time to get around to it. He lives near Wheeling WV and that’s where this truck has spent 98% of its life. I have his name and number (to be given after auction if desired.) Thanks for your interest! Bid with CONFIDENCE! 11 YEARS 100% FEEDBACK. ** 1 area of mention just because I am anal about this show truck: The thin metal trim on the tailgate could use new clips, it is a little loose (does not vibrate when driving however.) It is not mandatory though. If you have less than 3 feedbacks, please contact me prior to bidding or your bid will be deleted. I do not wish for the headaches of deadbeats. Hundreds of dollars go into listing and selling a vehicle! (eBay users with feedback history of zero are blocked from bidding, so contact me if this pertains to you.) SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: 500$ non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours via Paypal. I would assume if you are purchasing this truck, you have the funds to do it. I would strongly prefer a cashier’s check or cash of the remaining balance upon greeting you. If you have some reason you wish to do ALL Paypal, 2% of the total will be added to the total winning bid (Paypal charges 2.9% so I’ll eat the .9%) Options: Buyer is assumed to pick up vehicle and drive home. I can meet at Akron/Canton or Cleveland airports and pick you up and you drive truck home. You, the buyer, are to arrange delivery of this vehicle if that is your request. I can keep vehicle garaged for up to 14 days following end of auction (specifically May 14.) If you can not get vehicle in that timeframe, please contact me PRIOR to bidding.) Link to Video of the truck starting and running:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut8iHEAPIUA*****Note: THIS TRUCK HAS 380 AIR. 3 WINDOWS DOWN, 80 MILES PER HOUR. NO A/C.***** (Driving at normal speeds, I have never gotten uncomfortable, especially because of the classic automobile windows that are equipped which rotate horizontally on an axis allowing the full movement of air inside the cab.)
