Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1985 Ford F-350 for your
consideration. This classic American workhorse has been
meticulously maintained and comes with a history that reflects its
careful ownership and light usage. Originally purchased from
Grennell Brothers Southern Trucks in Muskegon, Michigan, this F-350
has spent nearly 24 years mostly parked in a garage, lovingly
covered, and started only occasionally to keep everything in
working order.
Under the hood, this F-350 is powered by the highly regarded
International 6.9 IDI diesel engine, which has only 5,000 miles on
a professional overhaul. This engine is known for its durability
and will bring a smile to your face every time you fire it up.
Mated to a C6 automatic transmission, it also features a Doug Nash
aftermarket overdrive, ensuring smooth cruising at highway speeds.
This one-ton, two-wheel drive truck, with its single rear wheel
configuration, is an ideal choice for those seeking a dependable
and straightforward vehicle.
The exterior is finished in a striking two-tone red, with the
lighter red center section potentially being a later repaint.
Despite this, the body remains in spectacular condition, a
testament to its life away from snow and salted roads. In 2023,
extensive maintenance was completed, including new front brake
calipers, rear wheel cylinders, and a full fluid change covering
everything from brake fluid to power steering lube. The tires,
V-belts, and batteries were also replaced in 2023, with only 150
miles added since these updates. The interior of the box was
repainted, ensuring it remains in excellent condition, free of rust
and blemishes.
Inside, the truck features an immaculate interior that shows little
wear, with floor mats that have kept the carpet nearly flawless. It
comes equipped with A/C, cruise control, manual windows and locks,
and aftermarket gauges for monitoring transmission, overdrive, and
exhaust gas temperatures. The truck's cabin reflects the careful
usage over the years, making it a rare find in such a preserved
condition.
The 1985 Ford F-350 is a prime example of Ford's legendary
durability and engineering, built to last without the need for
modern, complicated electronics. This truck is more than just a
vehicle; it's a piece of American automotive history, offering a
unique opportunity for the next owner to continue its legacy.
