For Sale: 1984 Ford F250 in Cleveland, Ohio

Vehicle Description

Super clean F250 4x4 long bed. Great-running 460 cubic inch V8, automatic transmission. Loaded with options, including power windows and locks, A/C, dual tanks, and more. Numerous upgrades. A big truck restored to look good but still equipped to work hard. Big Ford trucks are red hot right now, so what could be more appropriate than this bright red 1984 Ford F250 4x4? Coming from a home where it was lovingly restored, it is one of the best of its kind that we've seen. It benefits from a thorough restoration that stripped it down to just a chassis and cab and rebuilt from there. The bright red paint is the truck's original color, and it's a nice change from all the beige and brown examples from this period?it looks awesome. Finish quality is surely better than when Ford was doing it in the '80s and the doors still close with that distinctive sound. The 8-foot bed was removed and repainted, then finished with a spray-on bedliner so it's ready to work if that's something you decide to do. Much of the chrome is original and in excellent condition, although a few items are new, including the NOS tailgate insert. There's a new bumper out back, chrome tubular step plates to make getting in a little easier, and big side mirrors in case you want to tow a trailer with your new F250. We also like the cab lights, which give it a big rig vibe, and all the stainless trim has been buffed so it looks as good as new. From every angle, this truck looks fantastic and that's not an illusion. The interior features numerous upgrades, not the least of which are those stylish bucket seats with a custom center console (the original bench comes with the truck). Matching door panels with built-in speakers were added (the originals are included with the truck), which gives the whole interior a consistent look. You'll note a full complement of modern instruments, which are all operational, as well as a simple Ford steering wheel (the original gauges and steering wheel are included, too). Factory options include factory A/C which blows cold, power windows and locks, as well as dual tanks for exceptional range on the highway. The original radio is gone, replaced by a Sony touch-screen AM/FM/Bluetooth/USB head unit that sounds worlds better, and it includes a back-up camera that makes hitching up a trailer a snap. Carpeted mats protect the carpets and a sliding rear window makes it pleasant to be inside on days when you don't need the A/C. Even the headliner was replaced and shows extremely well. Obviously a lot of money went into this restoration. For power, the F250 uses its original 460 cubic inch V8, Ford's biggest and most powerful engine at the time. It remains largely stock and runs great. It makes plenty of oil pressure, doesn't smoke, and delivers big torque right where you need it. A few dress-up items make it sparkle under the hood and almost everything around the engine is new, including the water pump and master cylinder. It starts easily, idles nicely, and generally works like it should, making it easy to forget that this truck is celebrating its 40 birthday. It's backed by a freshly rebuilt 3-speed automatic transmission and 2-speed transfer case, which works with manual locking front hubs to provide exceptional off-road traction. The front end is Ford's legendary 'Twin I-Beam' suspension with massive disc brakes, while the rear is full of 4.10 gears which give it plenty of pulling power. You can see that the underside is extremely clean and while it hasn't been restored, there is absolutely no sign of rust or rot anywhere on this truck. It runs a true dual exhaust system that sounds muted but muscular, and sits on 17-inch aluminum wheels with big 265/70/17 Continental radials all around. Documentation includes the original owner's manual plus some restoration receipts and photos. All the original parts from the interior upgrade are also included. This is one of those honest trucks that seems to have lived a good life. It wasn't bashed and abused on a job site, but rather seems to have been a weekend worker that stayed out of the elements. The restoration work is very well done and we can't argue with the result?it runs and drives quite well and looks awesome. If you've been looking for a big Ford pickup, we think you'll have a hard time finding one better than this. Call today!
