For sale is a 1989 Ford F-250 longbed 7.3 IDI DIESEL pickup truck. $3500

It’s not without it’s flaws, but would make a solid work truck for someone.

Odometer shows 51,878 miles, but it’s an old 5 digit so no way to know if it’s rolled over, or how many times it has rolled over.

The good: - Runs well
- Starts every time
- Brakes work well
- Overdrive E40D automatic transmission shifts through all the gears
- Longbed to haul lots of material
- Good tires with decent life left
- Seat upholstery in great condition for age
- Old school vent windows
- Sliding rear window
- Toolbox
- Bed crane
- Dual fuel tanks
- Recently serviced
- Clean Arizona title in hand, in my name
- Smog exempt in CA
- RUST FREE!!!

$3500

The bad:
- Takes a little longer to start, give you time to drink your coffee while you wait
- Smokes on start – so you can get that beautiful diesel exhaust smell every start
- Rear fuel tank pump doesn’t work, so you’ll save a lot by not having to fill the tank as full
- Bed and rear bumper is dented pretty bad, so she has plenty of character
- Headlights, radio, and some gauges don’t work.
- AC and heater are installed and complete, but neither work. Thankfully we live in San Diego and don't need either!
- Windshield has a crack
- Passenger window doesn’t roll down, but the vent window works
- Paint was originally white, but was repainted black at some point. It's faded in some areas. A nice patina!

$3500

Needs new glow plugs, the resister type, that will fix the slow start and smoke. There isn’t any pump in the rear tank, the only pump is on the right side of the motor.

It might be the valve then that it's missing. Yeah, probably needs new glow plugs but I don't have the time to work on it personally.
