Few trucks capture the rugged durability and timeless appeal of
Ford's legendary OBS generation quite like this 1997 Ford F-250 XLT
HD. Finished in a striking and rarely seen two-tone Bimini Blue and
Oxford White color combination, this highly original heavy-duty
pickup stands out as an increasingly desirable example of one of
Ford's most sought-after truck platforms.
Powered by the dependable 460ci V8 engine paired with an automatic
transmission and four-wheel drive, this F-250 was built to handle
demanding jobs while providing the comfort and convenience expected
from a well-equipped XLT model. Whether you're looking for a
capable workhorse, a weekend hauler, or a collectible OBS Ford to
add to your garage, this truck delivers the versatility and
presence that have made these pickups so popular among
enthusiasts.
Showing just 132,015 miles, this well-kept two-owner truck presents
exceptionally well and retains much of its original character. The
Grey Custom Cloth interior remains inviting and functional,
featuring a desirable 3-way split front bench seat with a folding
center console, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, air
conditioning, auxiliary power outlet, sliding rear window, and a
folding rear bench seat. These comfort-oriented features make this
truck just as enjoyable on long drives as it is on the job
site.
Additional highlights include aluminum wheels, an 8-foot bed, and
the Heavy Duty rear bumper that further emphasizes the truck's
purpose-built capability. Tasteful upgrades consist of a Pioneer
stereo head unit, Uniden CB radio, and Lund fiberglass running
boards that enhance usability while preserving the truck's original
appearance.
According to available records, this F-250 has no accidents
reported and has clearly benefited from careful ownership
throughout its life. The combination of its rare factory colors,
desirable Heavy Duty package, strong original presentation, and
legendary OBS styling make it an increasingly difficult truck to
duplicate.
As demand for clean, unmodified OBS Ford trucks continues to grow,
examples like this are becoming harder to find and more desirable
among collectors and enthusiasts alike. This F-250 represents an
excellent opportunity to own a highly original, well-preserved
piece of Ford truck history that is ready to be enjoyed today.
