This is a nice 1955 Ford F250 V8 Stake Bed Truck. Better than average condition normally seen, especially in this neck of the woods. Truck is in original condition, has not been redone. Was used as a farm truck for most of it's life. First in Wisconsin, then in Minnesota until about 1977. Originally came with a 239 V8, which put out about 113 HP, but owner in Minnesota ran it out of oil and replaced it with a 59-60 292 V8, which was a nice upgrade because it put out about 193 HP. Engine runs great. Always starts, even in below zero temperatures. Truck has been used at least weekly on short trips to neighbors since I've had it, which is over a year. Prior to that is was stored in a pole shed for about 30 years. Last year it was registered prior to me was 1977. Drives fine. Has four speed manual transmission with granny. Clutch works fine. Has manual steering. Has manual brakes that work, but should be upgraded if to be used on longer trips. Heater and defrost seem to work. All gauges work except fuel and temp. Tires are pretty good. All glass is good, except drivers door window is cracked. Body is not bad. A few rust spots in the corners, but looks good. Frame is also in good shape. Floor is in decent shape. Original mats are still there. Interior isn't bad either. Dash and doors look good. Seat is a little worn on drivers side back. Was stored in pole building most of it's life. Hood is nice. Has the F100 emblems on the hood for some reason unknown to me. Original metal identification plate in glove box. Has 12 volt electrical system. All lights, horn and blinkers work. Has 43320 original miles and odometer does work. Have clear title and is currently registered/licensed. Identification plate says it is a F250 3/4T made in Dallas, Texas, 6900 GVWR, 118" wheel base, 4.86 differential. Would make a fun driver the way it is, or a nice base to start with on a restore. See pictures for best description. Contact me with questions of if more pictures are needed. Will assist in loading. Can be driven on to trailer. Delivery is a possible option depending on distance. Can be discussed with buyer. Accepted offers, over my starting price, is always possible, using the "buy it now" option, as long as no bids have been placed.
