For Sale: 1986 Ford F250 in Kentwood, Michigan

Few trucks capture the rugged dependability and timeless appeal of Ford's legendary "Bull Nose" generation quite like this 1986 Ford F-250 4x4 Extended Cab Pickup. Finished in handsome Spruce Metallic over a Tan interior, this remarkably original, low-mile example stands out as one of the finest surviving heavy-duty Ford pickups of its era. With just 51,957 original miles and ownership history tracing back to only two owners in Oregon, this truck represents an increasingly rare opportunity to own an honest, well-preserved classic.

Power comes from Ford's legendary 460 cubic-inch big block V8 paired with a desirable 4-speed manual transmission and a true 4-wheel-drive system with locking front hubs. This combination delivers the authentic driving experience truck enthusiasts appreciate, while offering the durability and capability that made these F-Series pickups legendary. After spending more than 100 miles behind the wheel since acquiring the truck, we can confidently say it is one of the best-driving Bull Nose Fords we've had. The engine runs exceptionally smooth, the clutch engages confidently, the transmission shifts with ease, the truck tracks straight down the road, and the brakes perform exactly as they should.

Inside, you'll find a refreshingly original cabin featuring a bench seat, rubber flooring, roll-up windows, a folding rear bench seat, sliding rear window, tachometer, power steering, and power brakes. The straightforward, work-ready interior perfectly reflects the honest character these trucks were built around while remaining remarkably well preserved.

Tasteful upgrades have been added without compromising the truck's originality. These include a durable Line-X bed liner, diamond plate side steps, a diamond plate bed rail kit, and an upgraded stereo, making the truck even more enjoyable while maintaining its classic appearance. Additional features include an 8-foot bed and tow package, making it as functional today as it was when new.

One of this truck's greatest strengths is its originality. It retains its original body panels and the majority of its original paint, with only the hood and cowl having been refinished. According to the CARFAX report, the truck has no reported accident history, further supporting the exceptional condition and careful ownership it has enjoyed throughout its life.

As appreciation for Ford's Bull Nose pickups continues to grow, finding highly original, low-mile examples has become increasingly difficult. This F-250 checks all the right boxes with its desirable big block engine, manual transmission, extended cab configuration, documented low mileage, outstanding originality, and exceptional driving manners. Whether you're a serious Ford collector, an enthusiast looking for a show-quality classic truck you can confidently drive, or someone searching for an honest vintage pickup that still performs exactly as intended, this F-250 is sure to impress.
