Super clean western truck in great colors. Bulletproof 300 cubic
inch inline-6 with 4-speed manual. Cold A/C, dual tanks, tilt,
cruise. New wheels and tires, 2-inch lift, fresh tonneau cover. A
functional hauler with lots of charisma! We've seen it happening
first-hand: these trucks are red hot. Sure, Ford built millions of
them but how many have survived? Better still, how many are this
attractive, functional, and ready to go today? Regatta Blue is one
of our favorite colors and it looks especially good on the angular
F150 bodywork. It's a nice change of pace and doesn't have the
dated look that so many of its siblings have (remember teal-colored
trucks?). Hailing from out west, rust is a non-issue and that's
100% original paint so you know there's nothing nasty hiding
underneath. There's an appropriate shine that suggests factory
enamel with 30 years of living behind it, but aside from a few
minor bumps and bruises and one touched-up scratch, it really
presents nicely. The big chrome bumpers shine up nicely, all the
factory emblems are still in place, and even the headlights are
bright and clear, not foggy and discolored. Someone took really
good care of this truck! The interior is functional, which is what
you want from a truck. No worries about the vinyl seat cover
getting stained, and the floors are rubber so you can hose it out
after a day of playing in the dirt. ON the other hand, it's also
nicely optioned, including functional A/C that blows cold, a tilt
steering column, cruise control, and a complete set of gauges. It
shows 82,906 original miles, and there's service documentation to
back that up. And besides, that 300 cubic inch inline-6 is just
getting broken-in at this point. The interior remains in great
condition with no damage aside from some stretching of the driver's
seat cover. The dash isn't cracked, the steering wheel isn't gouged
and frayed, and everything works, including the AM/FM radio in the
dash. This truck also features dual gas tanks, which you'll
undoubtedly find useful if you use this truck for serious hauling.
The 4-speed manual transmission makes it fun to drive and the
transfer case is accessed by its own shifter just to the left of
the transmission. It's not fancy, but it gets the job done quite
nicely. The heart of this big blue pickup is Ford's 300 cubic inch
inline-6, which is famous for both its torque output and its rugged
reliability. By 1992, it was fuel injected, which means easy
starts, a clean idle, and even more torque on tap than before. It
moves the big 4x4 with ease and has the kind of low-end grunt that
almost makes the transfer case's low range superfluous. The engine
bay is extremely clean and completely stock-you can still see
factory decals and markings throughout. It has been nicely
maintained, including a record of oil changes roughly every 3000
miles, so it's healthy and ready for another 30 years of fun. The
aforementioned 4-speed manual transmission shifts nicely with good
clutch action, and with both power steering and power disc brakes,
it's easy to handle in today's traffic. The suspension features a
modest 2-inch lift with new springs and shocks, along with an
aftermarket steering stabilizer. You can see just how clean this
thing really is, with just a light coat of western road dust on the
undercarriage and no issues in the cab corners or rockers.
Shockingly, there are 3.08 gears in the pumpkins, which gives this
big truck an easy highway demeanor-you can get away with such tall
gears thanks to the big six's prodigious torque. There's also a new
gas tank hanging out back, along with the auxiliary tank inboard of
the frame rail, and all the fluids are fresh. New 17-inch alloy
wheels were just fitted and carry big 285/70/17 off-road radials
that really fill the fenders properly. Documentation includes
original owner's manuals, some service records, factory marketing
brochures, and a Deluxe Marti Report. With an 8-foot bed, there's
not much this truck can't move. If you're a Ford fan, you already
know the legend of the 300-six and with such great colors, we doubt
this one will stick around very long. Add in a decent list of
useful options, and you get a truck that's ready to work or play
and does everything well. Call today!Harwood Motors always
