1988 Ford F-250 XLT Lariat

Consigned and available for bidding today we have a one owner low mileage never wrecked or molested California rust free 100% correct and original Ford F350 Lariat with the XLT trim package and a Vista fiberglass shell.You will note in the photos that the truck has a different colored tailgate and I said that it is 98% original and correct. This is because the original red tailgate was removed shortly after the owner purchased it and placed in storage. The purchaser of this magnificent rust free truck will get the as new tailgate as well as the one currently mounted. And the camper too. The camper and tailgate are from a different truck hence the different condition and color to the gate. Buyer gets two tailgates. The spare tire is mounted in the bed.

Because it has had the shell on it all these years and was not used for hauling anything that could not be placed in from the rear the interior of the bed has just a few small scratches and knicks; see the photos. The rear dock bumper has some scratches and scrapes; see photo. Truck was smogged in May and with only 61,910 original one owner miles it passed easily. That's only 2,064 per year on average! The truck has been garaged most of its life and the great paint shows it. It will polish up spectacularly I am certain. The only thing not original is the addition of a set of steps below each door, see the photo, and a dash cover as well as a slide in hitch - receiver on the right front for parking / spotting a trailer. Truck comes with the receiver - slider and a 2' ball.

There is nothing wrong with the original dash under the cover as it, the cover, has taken all of the sun over the years when it was exposed (rarely) to the sun; see the photos. The dash under the cover is pristine.

Truck has the fuel injected 460 V-8 (7.5 liter), AM / FM radio, heater, A/C, power steering, factory tow package and five speed transmission (4 speed with Overdrive). The battery is dated 2016 and cranked the truck up immediately when I went to photograph it despite having not been started "for about a month". The truck has enjoyed regular service and had a new tinted windshield installed about a month ago in anticipation of selling. The old one had a "star" which had morphed into a crack. There is notation regarding motor oil type and quantity inscribed on the left side of the radiator support in yellow paint; see photo.

The only thing about this truck I would change immediately is the tires are not matched with Yokohama 788 LT 235/85R16 on the front while the rears are BF Goodrich LT235/85Rt All Terrain Radials. I would recommend a set of new matched tires. I am pretty sure the A-T's on the rear will be noisy and harsh riding.

I have sold a lot of cars and trucks over the years on eBay and this is one of the finest I have ever had the pleasure of posting. With a good detailing this thing will look fantastic. The owner is selling his pride and joy only because of his age and health.

Please ask your questions before you bid. The title is clear and ready for immediate transfer. If sold to Californian we will smog it. Out of town buyer we offer free pick up from the airport. Fly in, install some new matching tires, gas it up, and drive it anywhere! Shipping it? We will coordinate to a place where a transporter can load as it is currently in a residential neighborhood and semis would not be able to navigate the narrow streets.
