5.8 HO / Automatic / Air Conditioning / 2WD

Price: - Item location: Salt Lake City, Utah, United States
Description:

1985 Ford F-250 XLT Lariat

Clean Utah title in my name. I believe I am the third owner of this truck. The reported second owner provided a Utah title dated 1994 and reported they purchased the truck from a dealer at that time. I believe the truck spent the majority of it's life in Cache County, Utah. Currently in Salt Lake County.
Options I am aware of:
  • 5.8 Liter / 351CI High Output V8 and C6 Automatic transmission
  • Factory air conditioning (works but charge is low)
  • Tow package; includes receiver hitch and wiring, front and rear sway bars, transmission cooler, Oil/volt gauges, extended mirrors
  • Power steering
  • Sliding rear window
  • Dual fuel tanks (both operational with switch and read levels)
  • Carpet with OEM floor mats, map pockets in doors
  • Tilt wheel
  • In-dash clock
  • Cruise control
  • Headliner (backing is present but fabric failed long ago and was removed)
  • Map and footwell lighting
  • Under hood work light
  • High altitude package (assists the OEM carburetor for elevation over 4000 ft)
The truck is very solid and drives quite well for an old truck. The brake master cylinder is weeping but does not affect braking performance. The brakes are strong. The power steering pump is quiet. The truck leaks a small amount of engine and transmission oil (dime-sized each per day or so). I have recently replaced the heater core, 4 shocks, all engine belts, spark plugs, air/fuel/pcv filters, ignition module, and lower carburetor gaskets. The dash is covered with a "dash mat" but is crack-free underneath.
The OEM carburetor (Holley 4180C) is included with the sale. The truck is currently running an Edelbrock 1407.
The wheels are not OEM but are some very cool vintage aluminum 8-lug "wagon wheels". They are in great condition. The tires are old but hold air without issue.
There is a 7-pin & 6-pin trailer wiring harness at the bumper. There is another 7-pin in the bed. I believe there was a 5th-wheel hitch installed at one point.
Both bedside fenders have rust issues. The rest of the truck is very solid outside of some surface rust in the driver door jamb. There is a dent in the front of the passenger fender corner, where it meets the headlight. The driver headlight bucket surround has a crack.
