Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"During the restoration the Air Conditioning system was up-dated to R134 and new receiver dryer installed. Was blowing cold till the front seal started leaking on the compressor. The truck will need the A/C compressor replaced with re-built unit. Then recharge the system with R134 Freon and it will blow cold again. This should not cost more than $300 to have this done. The Heater Core has been replaced as well as the electric blower motor, it blows very hot on full heat.I never use Cruise Control but truck is equipped with it. However, it is not currently working and will need to be looked at if you like Cruise/Control and need it working."

Up for your serious consideration is a one family owned, completely frame off restoration 1986 Ford F-250 HD , XLT Lariat, Camper Special , 4X4. My father, who has passed away, purchased this truck all those years ago brand NEW of the lot from Don Kott Ford of Carson, California on March, 22nd 1986 . This completely rust free truck has spent all of her days in sunny Santa Monica, Ca until my uncle took it over after our dad died. He drove it a short time and then parked it in his garage for a few years till my husband and I took it over and put it through a major restoration that took four years and over $20K . Since the restoration the truck has been driven very little, only weekends and car shows.

Engine Rebuild:

The engine underwent a complete dis-assembly, thorough cleaning and inspection of all internal parts. All necessary  machine work was done, high quality USA made parts were used to rebuild this 460 Ford.. The engine is running well and only has ~5000 miles since the rebuild.
Other parts on / around the engine that have been replaced include--- New 5yr Battery - Battery Cables - Starter- Rebuilt Carburetor-  Fuel pump-  Water Pump- Thermostat-  All Rubber Hoses was replaced- New Super Cooling Radiator from Ford -- Factory Ford Fan Clutch--  New!! Left & Right Exhaust Manifolds-- Solid Copper Exhaust Manifold Gaskets -- Tune Up Parts -  Distributor Cap -Rotor -Spark Plugs - Plug Wire Set - Electronic Ignition Module - Rebuilt Distributor - High Heat Boot Protectors .

Transmission and Transfer Case:

 We remember the transmission had been rebuilt before dad died and did not have many miles put on it. It was opened up anyway and inspected and only needed a filter kit ,  fluid change , and  the seals replaced. We also chose to install  a new chrome "Oversize" pan & filter kit. Transmission works great with no issues.
Transfer case was opened up inspected & rebuilt with a kit, all seals bearings were replaced as well as a new chain.  Both units are working great. Low gear /  Low Range she will climb up a mountain.

Body and Paint Work:

All the metal - cab, doors, fenders, bed box, are the originals and true to the truck. None of the body parts were replaced with imported after market parts. The front bumper, grill and headlamp bezels were replaced with high quality replacements. The truck body was very straight and rust free before the restoration work and did not need much if any body work at all, just needed normal prep in front of laying down a high quality paint job. The original color of the truck was red with red interior but we decided to go with "Viper Blue" and black interior which really made the truck look awesome.

Chassis:

Truck has never been in an accident, which is why the body is so straight and the chassis is perfect. Just needed to be cleaned and repainted. This was done during the restoration process. Front suspension was rebuilt .
