WANT TO SELL TRUCK BEFORE WINTER IS HERE, DONT WANNA SEE IT UNDER A BIG PILE OF SNOW!
WOULD MAKE A GREAT PLOW TRUCK OR WORK TRUCK!!!


87 F250 Lariet 4x4 Auto (c6 trans) International 6.9 V8 Turbo Diesel
Inspected till July 2012
Selling because I no longer need it! I just bought a 1 ton dually and I have to sell my little white truck to pay the new rig off.

Truck has 238,000 miles on it. Engine and trans are in great shape! Starts up fine in the cold! Block heater works! Does not burn any oil, shifts great no slipping. Body is not rotted out like most. Frame is mint. I used the truck weekly until about a month ago, but i have still been going out and starting it regularly. It will tow ANYTHING.

New parts in last 10,000 miles-
K&N air filter $90, injection pump $800, fuel injectors $250, glow plugs $80, glow plug controller $30, fuel lines $40, injector return lines $30, front and rear fuel tanks $180, front and rear fuel sending units $120, front tie rod ends and tie rod bars $110, new off road tires 33 inch $750, oil change $90, trans flush and fitler $70
total- $2640 in new parts

Performance parts on truck-
Banks turbo kit non-waste gate running 10 psi $1500, mild trans shift kit $120, gear vendors over drive $2500, 4.10 gears in the rear and front $350, 1 ton leaf springs in rear $350, american racing wheels $500, reese tow package $200, towing brake controller $100
total- $5950 in performance parts

Meaning there is around $8590 into this truck in just parts!!!
I know the truck is not worth that much, but i'm just trying to put out there how much has been done to this thing!

The truck has some rust on the bed of the truck on the passanger side but I have a whole other bed that goes with the truck, it needs some tlc and some paint and it would be ready to throw on, the dark sports that you see on the truck in the picture are spots where i spray painted over surface rust to help prevent it from getting any worse.

UPDATE-
Just installed brand new u-joints in rear drive shaft, front brake pads and rotors and repacked front bearing with greese.

$2200 OBO Cash talks
NO TRADES please
I can take more pictures on request!

Dangit! There are sooo many of these old pickups for sale in the north east and so few here. If that was closer to me it would be sitting up at our cabin right now with a plow affixed to it.

That first pic looks like an early 90's ranger with that paint an the angle the pic was taken at.

If it has all he says it does and he can prove it, I can't see why it would be a bad deal. Sounds like a truck that has been taken care of to me. The things he has listed make me think that he knows a little about the IDIs. If you have the cash and need a truck, I can't see much wrong besides a little rust but that is common up there.
