Description of 1974 Ford F-250 |
For sale: Originalsurvivor 74 Ford F250 Ranger XLT Camper Special truck that was one family owned from 1974-2015. Purchased new and livedhere in high desert of Montana, land of the sagebrush and prickly pear cactus. This truck was owned by a wealthy rancher and used as his "sunday truck" for runsto town and occasional camping trips.The truck was passed on tohis granddaughter, he and her husbandused the truck fordump runs andhauling firewood.Nicely equipped withRanger XLT package, actory A/C, actory camper mounts, ide tool box,and top of the line 460 engine.Complete correct original, till wearing it's factory jack and handle!Very well maintained by local Ford dealership, hatever the truck needed it got. Great truck for those trips to Home Depot or to the Cracker Barrel on Sundays with the wife. I'll do my best to describe this neattruck below: Exterior:Original paint still shines well, ith the typical scratches and dings from daily use.Great driver quality rig.The ginger color is verythin ina couple ofspots,like the roof and below rear fuel door. Looks like there was asmallrepair on driver doorand the painthas a few cracks in one spot there. Dent in passenger side front fender as shown. NO ROT or rust other than minor surface rust in bed. See link to underside pics- this truck has none of the typical Ford rust out so commonly seen on these trucks. This is arid country and wedon't see major rot here - there's just not enough moisture. Tailgate is bowed and there's a large dent under the chrome cap. Glass is good with no cracks. Chrome moldings have a few dings here and there butnopitting, rille and grillesurround in good condition. Front bumper chromenice, ut it'stweaked a bit. Factory camper frame mounts are included. Overall great driver quality rig that won't win any shows but will draw plenty of compliments and thumbs up. Interior: All original and in good condition. Dash, eadliner, nd door panels all excellent with no damage. Original XLT/Lariat seat in great conditionwith justa fewtears on driver side as shown. Original floor mat has a few cracks. Passenger side map pocket below door panel is missing, ut that's the easy side to find. Most everything seems to workincluding horn and original radio.A/C blows but doesn't get cold. Just a nice clean original truck. Mechanical:Starts, uns, nd drives out fine.Original 460 has good oil pressure with nonoticeable smoke, oises, r major leaks. Truck was serviced regularly and well maintained.Stock and original with the exception of carb, hichwas upgraded to anEdelbrockPerformer. I've driven the truck to work and lunch a few times and to a couple of cruise night shows, nd its tight and nice. Probably could use a tune up, dles rough at times. Tires have good tread but they are older and have weather cracks, o plan on replacing them soon.Only one gas tank (front)has been used recently and gasin therear is soured. Would needto address that if you wanted to use both tanks.Only issuesbeyond that I can see are tires, ndpassenger side rear wheel seal looks like it's been seeping fluid onto backing plate. Pricing/Misc:NO RESERVE. I got a good deal on this truck and you will too. Remember, his is an old vehicle, nd even though there are nomajor issues, tuff happens with old rigs. If you haven't fooled withvintage cars and trucksbefore, djust your expectations accordingly. Title is clear and open inthe previous owner's name, eady for you to sign as purchaser.
