Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to digitally present this
1997 Ford F-350 XLT
Up for sale is a classic 1997 Ford F-350 XLT Crew Cab, one of the
most sought-after heavy-duty trucks from Ford's legendary OBS (Old
Body Style) era. Combining rugged capability with the comfort of
the premium XLT trim, this crew cab offers seating for the whole
family while maintaining the durability and work ethic that made
these trucks famous. Crew cab F-350 models were among the top
configurations available in 1997 and remain highly desirable among
collectors, truck enthusiasts, and diesel fans today.
The XLT package provides upgraded interior appointments, power
features, chrome accents, and a comfortable cabin designed for both
work and long-distance travel. The spacious four-door crew cab
offers exceptional passenger room and practicality, making it an
ideal truck for towing, hauling, road trips, or weekend
cruising.
Built during the final year of the classic OBS body style, the 1997
F-350 has earned a reputation for reliability, simple mechanical
design, and timeless styling. Whether you're looking for a
dependable workhorse, a tow rig, or a collectible Ford truck, this
F-350 delivers the strength and character that modern trucks often
lack. Models were available with the legendary 7.3L Power Stroke
diesel, big-block gasoline engines, and heavy-duty drivetrain
options that helped establish the F-Series as America's
best-selling truck line.
This truck represents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Ford
truck history. Clean OBS crew cab F-350s continue to grow in
popularity and value, especially well-maintained examples. If
you've been searching for a classic heavy-duty pickup that combines
vintage style, proven durability, and everyday usability, this XLT
Crew Cab deserves a look.
