1990 F-150 Clean Start Rat Rod Project

Description:

1990 Ford F-150

This truck, in its current condition, is good for a farm or ranch. The rear main seal and power steering line leak. 5.0 V8 is strong and smooth and runs surprisingly well. Tires are 4 months old.
This truck is literally a barn find out of Texas. It wasn't run for a while so gaskets, etc., seep a little oil, as expected, but for the most part - surprisingly well built!
Kudos Ford!
The truck's real value, however, is in its ability to be transformed into something spectacular.
What you have here is a straight body, long wheel base truck that could be lowered and rat-rodded to be something very special. Just imagine a clear coat and pin stripe on the patina, tinted windows, some 20 inch wheels tucked underneath the wheel wells. Imagine this thing on air bags with tinted windows and a killer sound system. Maybe a freshened up V8 with mufflers. Wow! If I had the money ...
Or go the other way, turn this thing into something lifted, like a classic California pre-runner.
The truck would be best suited to a home that intends to build it into something special.
In either case, we are looking for $1,500. No reserve so the first bidder wins. Email with all questions or pictures. It will need to be towed to its new home, although she runs and drives, she is not inspected or registered.
Good luck and thanks!
