1990 F-150 - I6 5-Speed - Best Offer
Here's the listing on craigslist:
http://detroit.craigslist.org/mcb/cto/5055945578.html
Truck looks rough (we call it character) but has never left us stranded and believe it or not, it has been the most reliable car in our fleet. Selling because we bought a GMC C3500. (GMC is currently in the shop for dead fuel pump haha) Floor pans are still solid but the rocker panel on the drivers side is gone.
Over the past two years we've done the following to it (We have a folder with all of the receipts):
New front gas tank
Coolant flush
Changed rear diff oil
Changed trans fluid
New brake lines
New rear brakes (hardware, pads and wheel cylinders)
New tires (They don't leak) Alignment done at the same time so it drives straight.
New starter solenoid
Instrument cluster & interior trim swapped out for Bronco unit with tach, red engine light & trip odometer (original odometer was also swapped to preserve actual mileage) All lights inside cluster & interior lights also replaced at that time along with XLT Lariat trim pieces (wood grain stuff).
Oil changed every 8 months or so with Valvoline 5W30 Synpower & FL-1A Motorcraft filter, still nice & golden in color.
New heater core
Previous owner did:
Plugs, wires, cap & TFI module.
New fuel injectors
New radiator
New thermostat
New alternator
Rebuilt front end (Belle Tire found a bit of play in two of the ball joints, I forget what the paper works says but the tires are wearing evenly & it drives straight.)
New oil pan.
Rebuilt transmission
Things that could be fixed but don't need to be & things we noticed over the years:
Oil leak (Probably from valve cover, can smell oil from inside the cab when stopped and engine is fully warmed up.)
Fix heater blend door (Doesn't go to full hot unless moved manually from behind the glovebox, we just set it to full hot & leave it.)
Driver's door doesn't lock
Rear gas tank leaks (We used both tanks up until about four months ago when the rear started leaking, gauge worked & so did the fuel pump.)
Area around the floor mounted high beam switch has rotted away so the brights don't work.
Best to use the wipers in delay only, as anything else causes the wiper motor to get hot & it will stop until it cools down.
That's it. We drive this thing everywhere without worry, fires right up even when it's -10 or colder. Despite the rust it's a great spare vehicle and we'd hate to see it go to scrap. Please message me or AshleyTheGreat for more information or a test drive.
Thanks for reading!
