This truck was planned to be used for a project that I never had the time to finish.
Being sold just as you see in the pics. The truck used to have a rack/stake body that could
be tilted as a dump truck but that has been removed, The hydraulic lift is still operational.
GREAT THINGS ABOUT THIS TRUCK:
-mileage only 59,284 actual miles
- Ford gas big block 460 Fuel Injected engine
- Wheelbase is 161"
- 5 speed heavy duty transmission is a ZF542 with a good clutch
- 10 lug wheels with all 6 tires having very good tread left
- Dana 80 Dually rear axle with overload springs
- Solid beam type front axle with heavy duty leaf springs
- Muncie PTO-Power take off with controls inside cab still fully operational-rear dump still works fine
- pretty good body panels and trim with minimal rust
-sliding rear glass window
-Heavy duty front suspension
NOT SO GOOD THINGS:
- driver's seat has a wear and impression spot the size of the prior owners butt. Could use a better seat.
- Surface rust on rear portion of the frame but the metal is so thick there is nothing serious.
-right side door glass sticks on track , may need a new track. I have the parts and will include in the sale
BAD THINGS:
- One of the rear brake lines rotted and leaking but a very easy fix with no bed on the frame
- No tail lamps, the old ones junked with the rack body. wiring is intact and I could
wire in some lamps if that's a deal breaker for anyone
- one of the dual fuel tanks may leak fuel, probably the steel forward one but not sure
In 1992 this version became known as the F-450 Super Duty and the GVW is rated at close to 15,000 pounds
this would be an ideal truck to turn into a small flatbed, dump truck, Wrecker tow truck, landscape truck or even a trailer tow rig

Ford Transit Skyliner Concept is a Gulfstream for the road
Sat, 12 Apr 2014If you are afraid to fly or just want to arrive at your ultimate destination in absolute comfort, then the Ford Transit Skyliner concept might be the perfect vehicle for you. Built by Galpin Auto Sports and based on a 2015 Transit, the van is basically a private jet on wheels. It even has a touch of Transformers about it with the ability to switch between four modes by pressing a button in a smartphone app.
Based on the long wheelbase, high-roof model with 487 cubic feet of cargo space and 6 feet, 9.5 inches of interior height, the Skyliner has movable captains chairs that shift around among four modes. In theater mode, the seats turn and recline to face a 52-inch retractable movie screen with 7.2 surround sound. For business, a motorized table unfolds, and the chairs gather around it. There is a mode for tailgating where the door opens four-feet wide, and, when traveling, passengers can recline back with footrests that extend for maximum comfort.
To make the ride even plusher, there is a satellite and media server to meet your entertainment needs, and there is even a built-in bar in the back. If this Ford had a bathroom, you could live in it. Of course, you would need to hire a driver to enjoy all the amenities in the back.
Bill Ford augments his power by nearly doubling stake of supervoting shares
Fri, 28 Jun 2013Bill Ford Jr. has more sway than ever over the automaker that bears his surname, as the great-grandson of Ford's founder has reportedly doubled is holdings of Class B Ford stock. According to a report from Reuters (which cites a newly discovered securities filing), he acquired some 3.7 million Class B shares from an unnamed family member.
Class B shares of Ford stock are held by descendants of Henry Ford and offer expanded voting power to their holders - Bill Ford Jr. now controls roughly 11.5 percent of the total Class B pool. Ford Jr. is also a one of five trustees that manage a voting trust that oversees the majority of these "supervoting" shares. In total, Reuters reports there are 71 million Class B shares that account for 40 percent of the voting power in the company, despite making up just 2 percent of the total volume of all Ford stock.
Ford Jr. served as Ford's CEO until 2006, when he stepped down to hire and make space for current CEO, Alan Mulally. The move to consolidate Ford family voting power, at least somewhat, is seen by many as a comforting sign with Mulally's departure from the company likely to happen in the next several years.
Ford calling in 28k Edge crossovers over fuel line leak
Thu, 16 Jan 2014A problem with the fuel line on certain examples of the Ford Edge has prompted the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to issue a recall. The issue revolves around the metal housing on the fuel line pulse damper, which was apparently improperly manufactured in the first place and is prone to crack in certain circumstances, leading to a fuel leak. And as we all know, a fuel leak is not a good thing.
The problem affects model year 2012 and 2013 Edge crossovers equipped with the 2.0-liter engine and manufactured between September 2, 2010 and April 25, 2013 - a total of 27,933 units. Although the Lincoln MKX is closely related to the Edge, since it isn't offered with the same engine (to which the problem is related), the recall does not include the premium-badged version. See the recall notice below for further details.
