Description:
1989 Ford F-150 Custom
I purchased this 3 years ago from an old farmer in his 70's who bought it new, he told me it had original miles on the odometer, and considering how stuff the shifting patterns is I believe it entirely.It was kept in a barn and NEVER RUSTED, the fenders are all original, and the bed has a factory galvanization which I had never seen before.
It has the 5.0 motor, the distributor cap has been replaced, the valave covers have been replaced with the better silicone versions which never wear out. I've changed the oil with synhetic blend in the few thousand miles ive driven it. New plugs and wires as well. Air filter is also good.
Since I have purchased it I have done the following.
Transmission- front, and rear differential- All fluids changed to synthetic Lucas fluids.
Body- The back fenders were line'xed to make sure they stay pristine, the bed was done too including over the rails. The body was sanded down and painted with 2 coats of rustoleum industrial paint with 3 coats of clearcoat acrylic. Tool box comes with it.
Towing- I installed a 7 pin plug, it has a class 3 hitch which is what the truck is rated for, I also included a 4 prong plug adapter as well, so it should accept most standard trailers.
Tires- Installed last year, dont have more than 2K miles on them.
Tanks- This model came with two tanks. The main one was rusting and leaking so I installed the more expensive plastic one, itll never rust again, and I installed a new fuel pump while I had it down. The back tank I have never tried.
4X4-Installed Warn locking hubs on the front, ALL METAL, no plastic to break, and it pops when it slides in place so you know youve done it right.
Cab- Its clean, but not perfect, the seat has a saddle seat cover, the speedometer makes a clicking noise when in motion, I had intended to take it apart and lube it, just havnt gotten to it yet. It even has the factory radio which makes noise, but the volume control doesn't work, its either too quiet or too loud.
Bumpers-Original chrome, which is fading and has light rust, still as solid as can be.
Bed- Replaced the leaf spring shacked on both sides and upgraded to a heavier set of 3/4 ton leaf springs, they have an extra leaf and are 3 inches wide instead of the normal 2.5.
Suspension. New ball joints, steering pieces, brakes, hubs (all the way around), new shocks all the way around (the front has dual shocks), new sway bar links in the back, new tie rod ends, and aligned after all this was done, tires wearing straight with no issue. New front wheel bearings, timken brand.
Why am I selling it? Ive purchased an F250 which will be able to handle more weight.
Cash in person is the only method of payment I will accept.
Its not perfect, but you would be hard pressed to find one in better shape, especially this old. It can be taken for a test drive if you would like. I am swapping the tag and taking it off the road on the 9th next month. It can be picked up no earlier than the 9th as it is still in use until then.
Questions are welcome.
