1988 Ford F-250 XLT Lariat.

**EDIT** I just looked at the Vehicle History Report and it clearly indicates that there are more miles than I thought. More fool me - I was basing the current mileage on what the previous owner told me.  Sorry for any confusion.

I am the third owner of this truck and it does have less than 100,000 miles.  It is an excellent workhorse and really fun to drive (much more entertaining than the Service Van I've upgraded to).

Specs:
460 ci V8 engine with fuel injection
5 speed manual transmission
Locking rear axle
Twin fuel tanks
Curt manufacturing class 3 receiver hitch
Electric brake controller
Fibergalss Service Box with three doors per side.  Some doors have shelves, others have hooks.  All six door's locks work and are commonly keyed.
Box has 4 "D" rings in each corner for tying down large loads.

Interior:
Cloth bench seat in brown/tan.  Behind the seat storage bins.
Sliding rear window.
Instrument cluster has full complement of gauges.  Voltage gauge in cluster does not work; there is an 2 1/8" aftermarket voltage gauge added to the bottom of the dash.
A/C components work, but there is a slow leak and would need to be recharged to get much out of it.
Cassette player in original radio works - play your .mp3 device through the adapter.

Exterior:
Two-tone brown paint with some paint fade/peel on hood and roof.  Passenger side door gently dented (could be pushed out) and left front fender has a crease above the turn signal.  Some surface rust in the lower cab corners, but no holes.  Large aftermarket mirrors bolt through the doors and those spots are rusty and need attention.
Fiberglass box in good shape with no cracks.  Won't rust!  I miss that with my larger metal box van.
Tires have plenty of life yet.  Rims are non-sexy black steel (I swapped the alloys seen in the pictures over to my new van)

Wipers are weak and need some attention.  I've replaced the switch (that didn't fix it) and bought a wiper motor that I haven't installed yet.  Headlights are a bit cloudy; I have a better set that will go with the truck.  Exhaust system is a a little loud, but not so much that you'll get in trouble (in my experience).  Truck starts and runs faithfully and is ready to help you earn some money or serve as your portable tool or toybox.

Please arrange to view and drive this truck prior to bidding.  I have described the truck honestly and will answer all questions the same way.  More pictures available on request (please allow me 24 hours to respond).

Shipping, if requested, to be arranged by purchaser.  There is a possibility I could deliver the vehicle to within a few hundred miles of Southern WI - please contact me prior to bidding to discuss.

Chris Harris checks out Ken Block's Hoonicorn '65 Mustang

Thu, Dec 4 2014

Ken Block's Hoonicorn, which stars in Gymkhana Seven, might still bear a passing resemblance to a vintage 1965 Ford Mustang, but underneath the skin, the car is one of the baddest custom machines to ever do a smoky burnout on the road. The ever enthusiastic British auto journalist Chris Harris is now showing what really makes Block's new ride tick on video, and Harris even gets to go for quite a ride. The only Mustang components really left on the Hoonicorn are the A-pillar, B-pillar and roof, according to Harris. Everything else is ditched to create Block's ultimate Gymkhana tool. The 845-horsepower, 6.7-liter Rousch Yates V8 sits behind the front axle, and the grunt is routed to all four wheels through a Sadev gearbox usually found on Dakar Rally vehicles. The whole drivetrain is packed with cool little touches; like that giant handbrake that also disconnects power from the front wheels when in use. The superlatives about the Hoonicorn could go on forever, but settle in and let a very excited Harris tell you about just some of them. He's like a kid in a candy store here, and the look that combines surprise, fear and joy during his ride with Block is the kind that lacks a suitable word in the English language.
