Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to offer this high quality original,
1988 Ford F250 XLT 4X4 Centurion Edition Super Cab Pickup.
Centurion Vehicles, inc., located in White Pigeon, Michigan was
known for their high quality conversions of Ford Trucks and
Bronco's when the status quo offered by the Factory was just not
good enough. These vehicles were mostly special ordered through
your local Ford dealer. Centurion was noted for producing the most
luxurious conversions available at the time.
This Centurion Classic was ordered and sold new by Landmark Ford,
inc, of Trigard, OR. It is powered by Ford's legendary 460 V8 Big
Block engine, automatic transmission and 4 wheel drive system.
Centurion Vehicles inc outfitted with vehicle with handsome
appointments not offered by Ford to included: Centurion Graphics,
chrome brush bar, special aluminum wheels, full running board
options, special bumper, Centurion badging, exterior illumination,
roof visor, folding mirrors, exterior entry handle, special
interior wood trim, custom cloth upholstery, 3 way front bench with
center storage and folding desk with cup holders, Cobra CB Radio,
custom overhead console with illumination. This truck still came
equipped with all the XLT options offered by the Ford Factory, to
include power steering, power brakes, power windows, power locks,
cargo light, cruise control, air conditioning, dual tanks, tilt
wheel, etc.
This Centurion XLT 4X4 remained in the same family and resided in
the Salem, OR area until our recent aquisition. At just over
106,000 miles, it remains in amazing original condition to include
original paint, original decal package, all original interior,
unmolested clean original frame and underside and original engine
and engine bay. It benefited from overall light use and indoor
storage when parked. This combined with the Pacific Northwest
climate ensured a well preserved special order Pickup. The exterior
paint shows very well with some minor chips and defects due to use.
The bed is clean and used, we chose not to line it to show off its
integrity. The inteiror is overall very clean showing off an
excellent original dash and gauges. The original seat upholstery
remains very clean with expected minor wear on the driver seat
bolster, the wood is in good condition showing proper patina, and
the original carpet in very good condition. The frame and underside
of this behemoth is excellent original. No rot, no undercoating, no
fluff; just clean and honest.
These trucks remain very popular and clean, honest examples are
becoming harder and harder to find. This, being a Centurion
Edition, will stand head and shoulders above the crowd and when
comparing size, strength and girth. Values are rising and this
generation of Ford pickups have become quite collectible with
quality originals being the most sought after. Documentation
includes: Original dealer info, original Ford Warranty Card with
owner info, original Centurion Warranty registration card with
owner info, Original Ford Owners Manual with factory supplements,
Centurion supplement, and a perfect CARFAX. Consider with
Confidence.
