This is my Ford Superduty 4x4. It has a new 7.3L diesel crate motor (10K on it) with an ATS turbocharger, intercooler, and pyrometer. The transmission is a 5 speed manual with PTO pump and rear outlets with an in cab control box. The transfercase was replaced recently. The clutch was replaced with a kevelar clutch with the new engine and the 4 wheel disc brakes are all newish. The tires are solid but not new (I'd say around 25%). The flatbed was shop made and solid as a rock and has a gooseneck and rear hitch with a brake controller. The exterior is pretty clean for its vintage but there are a few dings plus rust coming mostly at the door bottoms and mirror attachments and the rockerpanels have been patch welded. The underbody is in excellent condition for its age with little rust, it is as clean as I've seen on a truck this old. The exhaust is 4" and new. The interior is in decent shape with power windows and locks. Overall just a solid workhorse. Will handle more weight than my newer 450's, its basically just an old, reliable tank. Not fancy but pretty sharp and definitely unique. Call Josh at 515-291-7420 with any questions. I will try to answer emails but I'm better about answering a phone.

Ford Transit production fires up, American Pickers among first takers

Wed, 30 Apr 2014

Not long ago, the History Channel showed a seemingly unending stream of World War II documentaries, but it made a switch a few years ago to include an increasing mix of 'reality' programming. American Pickers was one of the early attempts at this new formula, with cameras following hosts Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz around the country in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter as they tracked down collectibles and "rusty gold" for their Iowa shop, Antique Archeology. The show has since gone on to become one of the channel's most popular programs.
Starting in the new episode airing tonight, the affable hosts will swap their Benz for a 2015 Ford Transit, a nicely timed bit of marketing to coincide with the launch of the model's assembly at the Blue Oval's Kansas City Assembly Plant, which also kicks off this week. Ford is touting 2,000 new jobs created as part of its $1.1-billion investment in the plant.
No strangers to product placement, the guys from American Pickers say their switch away from the Sprinter is because they wanted to balance cargo capacity and fuel economy to make the most of their cross-country jaunts. They opted for the largest Transit available with a long wheelbase, extended body and high roof, giving them 487 cubic feet of cargo room. Hauling power comes from a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel engine with 190 horsepower and 346 pound-feet of torque and a six-speed automatic transmission with rear-wheel drive. Fittingly, the van wears the same Antique Archaeology logo over white paint as their old Sprinter.
