"New" '88 f350 dually

[6.9poweredscout]

Picked this gem up for $1100. 8 foot meyers plow, service body is shot, dually 4.10s with brand new tires, 7.3 (all I know about it is its between the rails, dead starter.) Cooked auto in the bed. I thought I may be able to save it but the cab is as bad as my '85 and the frame is all rust, theres plates on the frame that the rust swelled to 3xs its original size. Front clip is solid though, going to part out what I can and swap the springs and rears under my '85. I'm on the lookout for 4 speed parts too....

Nice find! Does it run?

Couldn't get the starter to crank it. On the bright side theres at least $200 worth of wiring on it, its got good battery cables (mine are shot) and wires to the rear bumper with a forklift plug. Going to get a winch for the trailer now!

Is it a 4x4? If so, do you have any plans for the front hubs?

Yessir 4x4, yeah they're going under the '85!

Had a feeling as much, but I had to ask ...congrats

Thanks. As long as my cab stays on the frame I will have a decent tow rig.
