1985 Ford F-350

"TONNER"

Your looking at a beautiful 1985 SRW F-350 4X4 1 ton single cab truck converted to a Dually.   I spent 2 years doing a frame off restoration on this truck about 10 years ago.  All sheet metal is new except the cab which was very solid. The Fenders are Brand new from LMC. The hood is a fiberglass cowl induction style. the doors are from a 1996 F-150 with the smaller power chrome "cup mirrors" and power windows.  The bed is from a 1997 F-350 Dually with a new LMC tailgate.  The Engine is a bored out 460 big block completely rebuilt. MSD ignition. Elect fuel pump. Edlebrok intake and carb. long tube headers and full 3" exhaust. The Suspension. Lift. Centerforce dual plane clutch. custom exhaust with flowmasters and stainless tips. brakes. Alcoa wheels. tires. paint. (all steel body NO PUTTY) seat. grille and chrome. bumpers. bed liner. bed cover. etc etc etc. were all NEW!  The 4-speed transmission with granny gear. transfer case and axles and cab are original/stock with approx 120K.  There are many parts that I searched for to complete the truck and make it "show worthy"  that were not availible new so I had to find nice used pieces such as interior trim. etc.   The carpet should have been replaced but I didnt get to it.  The tires are 35" TSL Super Swampers.  All body/paint work was professionally done.


After restoring the truck it was used ONLY for shows and pleasure.  (it won a few trophies too)  For the most part other than starting occasionally and driving around the block this truck has not been on the road for several years.  I would suggest going over it and fully detailing before any shows (if you want to win)  I would also go over it mechanically to make sure eveything is up to par.  there is no signs of wear or needed repair but time has a way of taking its toll.  This summer I poured in about 10 gallons of fresh 93 octane and put a new fuel filter on. I also charged up the battery and it fired right up without hessitation.    I do suggest towing/trailer it home and going over it before putting it back on the road for any serious distance driving. not to mention it may be embarrasing to call a tow truck from the showfield because a dry-rotted belt.
This truck is registered as a Classic in PA.  I will transfer the tags to the buyer if you are a Pennsylvania resident who plans to enjoy it as a pleasure vehicle and pay VERY LOW insurance premiums.  (I had the truck appraised after I finished it for insurance reasons.  It is insured for the full $25. 00 appraisal with no deductable and costs less than $500 a year!)
Please feel free to contact me with any questions. I know this truck inside and out and I would be happy to answer any questions. send pictures. or meet with you to take a closer look. before you bid.  610-509-6583  Dave
Located half way between Reading and Allentown PA. 1 mile off 78/22 


******** This truck began its life as a Single Rear Wheel F-350.   IF you dont want it as a dually I am willing to remove the bud wheels and adapters.  I would take my 6 wheels and tires off along with the adapters and knock off $1500 from the purchase price.  You would then have to bring your own 4 wheels and tires with you when you come to pick it up. ********
