Ride Info:
Nickname: F250 No Detail Missed
Engine: Engine 466cu.in engine (no expenses spared) I have dyno data and dyno video of engine break-in. I will only share the data with the winner of this auction (FYI - in makes LOTs of power (well beyond 500hp) on pump gas, no disappointments here!!). Engine will idle at 750RPM and tack beyond 7000RPM. It’s a beast, but calm enough to drive everyday. For the curious, the engine has steel rods, roller cam, aluminum heads, ceramix coated headers, and stainless steel tuned exhaust system with stainless steel flow master mufflers.
Drivetrain: Chassis Dane 60’s with positive traction front/rear. 4.56 Ratio. Summers Brothers axles in rear 35” Mickey Thompson Baja Claws with 17” Classic II rims Stainless Steel Traction bars Powder coated frame 4 Speed transmission with granny gear. Chromed plate shifters on transmission and transfer case 4” lift kit with bump stops and limiting straps, overload springs in rear Dual front shocks and dual steering stabilizers Cross-over steering with high pressure AGR power steering pump (really nice feature!!) 33 gallon fuel tank (the engine makes lot’s of power)
Description: 1978 F250 4x4. I’ve owned this truck since 1984 and completed the frame off restoration last year. This is one of the nicest F-Series trucks you will find. I will highlight a few of the trucks details now and can provide more details for serious inquires via email.

The list goes on and on…no detail was missed or expense spared during the restoration.

This truck can be driven daily, used for sled pulling, taken to shows or simply kept in your garage for pure enjoyment.

I hate to see this truck go, but I’m entering another phase of life.
VIN: F26HNAG9993
