THIS CLASSIC BLUE OVAL BEAUTY IS IN AMAZING CONDITION AND IS A TRUE RARE FIND TIME CAPSULE!
WITH ONE LOOK AT THE CLARITY OF THE HEADLIGHTS, THE IMPRESSIVE CONDITION OF THE ORIGINAL PAINT AND NEAR PERFECT INTERIOR IT IS EVIDENT THIS HAS BEEN A GARAGED, WELL LOVED AND CARED FOR TRUCK. THIS IS A VERY CLEAN EIGHTH GEN F150 THAT HAS BEEN A LOCAL NW WASHINGTON TRUCK SINCE 1999 WHEN THE OWNER MOVED FROM DEVILS LAKE ND AND WHERE THE TRUCK LIVED FOR IT'S FIRST TEN YEARS OF LIFE. IT HAS HAD NO ACCIDENTS, NO MODIFICATIONS, NO PAINT WORK, HAS A CLEAN WA TITLE AND AMAZINGLY IS 100% BONE STOCK ALL THE WAY TO ITS ORIGINAL WHEELS, FACTORY EXHAUST AND HAS ALL IT'S ORIGINAL KEYS, BOOKS AND MANUALS. HERE IN WASHINGTON STATE THERE IS NO SALT USED ON THE ROADS, SO THE BODY IS RUST FREE AND ROCK SOLID FROM TOP TO BOTTOM! WE LOVE THE ICONIC AND TIMELESS LOOK THESE BULL NOSE F-SERIES HAVE AND AS MANY OF YOU HAVE SEEN WE SEARCH ALL OVER FOR NOT JUST LOW MILE TRUCKS, BUT SUPER CLEAN ORIGINAL TRUCKS, SO WHEN WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE THIS GORGEOUS 1 OWNER WE JUMPED AT THAT CHANCE. THIS F150 TRULY PRESENTS AND DRIVES LIKE A MUCH YOUNGER TRUCK WITH A QUARTER OF THE MILES AND STANDS TALL IN CONDITION AGAINST VEHICLES THAT ARE LESS THEN A THIRD OF IT'S AGE. THIS BODY STYLE HAS A CULT FOLLOWING AND WHEN YOU SEE HOW CLEAN THIS TRUCK IS WITH THAT PERFECT FACTORY LIKE OFF THE LOT LOOK YOU CAN SEE WHY.
BODY- THIS IS AN AMAZING ORIGINAL 28 YEAR OLD SURVIVOR TRUCK THAT IS A NEAR 10 IN COMPARISON TO OTHER 28 YEAR OLD VEHICLES YOU SEE ON THE ROAD TODAY, ESPECIALLY TRUCKS. IT IS IN ITS ALL ORIGINAL FACTORY 1989 FORD PAINT AND PIN-STRIPPING AND THE PAINT IS INCREDIBLE ESPECIALLY FOR BEING NEARLY THREE DECADES OLD AND HAS THAT GLOSSY WET PAINT LOOK. IT SHOWS EXTREMELY WELL FROM TOP TO BOTTOM WITH A VERY HIGH SHINE AND DEEP GLOSS THAT IS VERY REFLECTIVE AND THE DEPTH CAN BE SEEN IN THE REFLECTIONS IN THE VIDEOS AND PICS. THIS GORGEOUS LATTE AND MOCHA LOOKING TWO TONE PAINT IS ON A ARROW STRAIGHT ALL ORIGINAL ACCIDENT FREE BODY. ALL PANEL GAPS ARE PERFECT, ALL PANEL AND BODY BOLTS ARE UNTOUCHED SHOWING NO ALTERATIONS OR ADJUSTMENTS AND THE DOORS OPEN AND SHUT LIKE NEW WITH NO DOOR SAG, HINGE ISSUES AND JUST GIVE THAT KILLER DEEP VAULT LIKE SOUND WHEN THEY SHUT. EVEN THE PAINT UNDER THE HOOD, ALONG FIRE WALL, DOOR JAMBS, INSIDE INNER TAILGATE JAMBS IS NICE AND SHINY LIKE YOU SEE ON THE OUTSIDE. ALL GLASS IS ORIGINAL EXCEPT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD THAT WE JUST HAD REPLACED.THE INSIDE OF THE BED IS IN UNBELIEVABLE SHAPE THAT HAS SEEN VERY LITTLE USE WITH NO DENTS, HAS ONLY MINOR WEAR MARKS ON THE BOTTOM RIBS FROM A RUBBER BED MAT AND THE INSIDE OF THE BED HAS BRIGHT SHINY TAN PAINT. THIS F-SERIES IS IN FAR BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE 28 YEAR OLD CONDITION AND WOULD RIVAL NEWER TRUCKS AND EVEN THE LOWEST MILE TRUCK OF THIS ERA IN CONDITION. MOST TRUCKS OF THIS AGE USUALLY THE LOWER AREAS OF THE PAINT ARE PEPPERED WITH STONE CHIPS FROM DECADES YEARS OF USE, BUT AMAZINGLY IT ONLY HAS A SMALL AMOUNT ALONG THE BOTTOM AND ARE NO LARGER THEN A PENCIL TIP. EVEN THOUGH THIS F150 4X4 IS IN IMPRESSIVE SURVIVOR CONDITION IT HAS SEEN 28 YEARS OF USE, SO IT WILL HAVE MINOR WEAR AND MARKS WITH SMALL STONE CHIPS ON THE FRONT VALANCE BELOW THE GRILLE, ALONG THE FRONT OF HOOD, A COUPLE SMALL AREAS WHERE THE TOP CLEAR OF THE ORIGINAL TOP PIN STRIP IS CHIPPED, BOTH DOOR EDGES HAVE A FEW ENTRY CHIPS ALONG WITH SOME SMALL FINE SCRATCHES NEAR KEY HOLE AND DOOR HANDLE AND THERE IS A AREA ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE ROOF WHERE THE PAINT HAS LIFTED, BUT THAT IS THE ONLY AREA ON THE WHOLE TRUCK. THE REAR ALUMINUM TAILGATE TRIM PANEL HAS A FEW SMALL DINGS IN IT, THE TOP OF TAILGATE HAS SMALL CHIPS AND SCUFFS IN THE PAINT ALONG WITH AROUND THE TAILGATE OPENING AREAS. THE PASSENGER SIDE BED SIDE HAS A THIN HAIRLINE CREASE NEAR THE TAIL LIGHT WITH A SMALL CHIP RIGHT AT THE LIGHT, A FEW SMALL AND MEDIUM SIZE SCRATCHES IN THE CENTER DARK BROWN JUST BEFORE THE TAIL LIGHT AND A SMALL SCRATCH BEFORE THE REAR TIRE OPENING. THE DRIVER BED SIDE HAS SOME SMALL SURFACE SCRATCHES NEAR THE GAS DOORS AND BOTH BED SIDES HAVE A FEW SMALL CHIPS IN THE PAINT NEAR THE TAIL LIGHTS. ALL CHROME HAS A NICE DEEP MIRROR LIKE REFLECTION CHROME SHOULD HAVE WITH NO CLOUDINESS, BUT THE REAR BUMPER HAS SOME DINGS, AGING IN THE CHROME AND CHIPS IN THE CENTER BLACK PAINTED AREA. ALL BLACK EXTERIOR TRIM AND ALL COLORED AND CLEAR LIGHTS HAVE GOOD CLARITY AND COLOR WITH NO CRACKS, ALONG WITH THE HEADLIGHTS THAT ARE CRYSTAL CLEAR ALL SHOWING THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN GARAGED AND CARED FOR. THE ONLY AREAS OF SUN DAMAGE OR FADING IS THE OUTER RUBBER DOOR FELTS FOR THE GLASS ARE CRACKED, BUT ARE EASY TO INSTALL AND COST AROUND $60 FOR ALL 4 . THE CAB A & B PILLARS HAVE NO HAIRLINE STRESS CRACKS LIKE YOU CAN OFTEN FIND AND THE TOP RAIN GUTTERS ARE CLEAN WITH FACTORY SEAL AND GLOSSY PAINT ON BOTH SIDES. THE REAR TAILGATE OPENS AND CLOSES NICE AND SMOOTH WITH CLEAN AND FREE HINGES AND A FULL DIAMOND PLATE TAILGATE PROTECTOR AND BED RAIL COVERS. THE FACTORY 15" CHROME WHEELS ARE IN EXCELLENT SHAPE WITH ALL FACTORY CAPS, SCREWS, NO RUST AND HAVE NEAR NEW FACTORY SIZED TIRES WRAPPED AROUND THEM. ALL OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED WEAR AREAS ARE VERY MINOR AND FAR LESS THAN EXPECTED ESPECIALLY ON A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE AND ESPECIALLY A PICKUP TRUCK JUST BECAUSE WHAT MOST PEOPLE BUY A TRUCK TO DO AND WHAT THEY ARE DESIGNED TO BE. YOU CAN TELL THIS F150 HAS BEEN WELL LOVED AND HIGHLY CARED FOR AS IT IS NO EASY TASK TO USE AND ENJOY A TRUCK FOR 28 YEARS AND KEEP IT THIS CLEAN. THE AVERAGE PERSON DOESN'T KEEP A VEHICLE FOR NEARLY THREE DECADES UNLESS THEY TRULY LOVE IT AS ONE OF THE FAMILY!
INTERIOR- THIS F150 IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN A SMOKE AND PET FREE INTERIOR WITH AN UNUSED, LIKE NEW LIGHTER AND ASH TRAY AND BESIDES SOME VERY MINOR WEAR THIS INTERIOR IS A TIME CAPSULE NEAR PERFECT INTERIOR. BESIDES THE CD PLAYER THIS IS AN ALL STOCK INTERIOR THAT HAS NO SUN FADING, CRACKS OR HOLES ON ANY PIECE OF THE INTERIOR EXCEPT A LITTLE FADING AT THE VERY TOP OF THE DOOR PANELS. THE DASH IS IN PERFECT SHAPE WITH NICE AND BRIGHT TRIM, CRYSTAL CLEAR GAUGES THAT ALL WORK AND IMMACULATE DASH BEZELS WITH DEEP FACTORY WOOD AND BLACK FINISH. THE DOOR PANELS ARE IN EXCELLENT SHAPE WITH NO CRACKS OR CHIPS AND HAVE JUST THE LITTLE FADING MENTIONED ABOVE. IT HAS THE XLT DELUXE INTERIOR WITH CARPET, CLOTH BENCH SEAT WITH BELTS FOR 3, A/C, TILT, CRUISE, UPGRADED TRIM AND DOOR PANELS, BUT WITH MANUAL WINDOWS AND MANUAL LOCKS THAT YOU RARELY SEE. EVERYTHING SWITCH AND LIGHT WORKS, DOOR WING WINDOWS ALL LOCK, STAY IN PLACE AND MOVE FREELY. THE DOORS WINDOWS ROLL UP AND DOWN EASILY, BOTH ARE EASY TO LOCK FROM OUTSIDE OR INSIDE, THEY BOTH SHUT LIKE NEW WITH NO SAG AND INSIDE THE DOOR JAMBS AND HINGE AREA IS THE SAME BEAUTIFUL BRIGHT GLOSSY TAN PAINT WITH ONLY VERY MINOR ENTRY WEAR. EVEN THE ALL THE INTERIOR TRIM HAS NO SCRATCHES, FADING OR CHIPS.

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTHLY THROUGH ALL GEARS, ALWAYS DOWN SHIFTS QUICK WHEN DEMANDED BY THE PEDAL AND SHIFTS UP WITH SMOOTH CONSISTENT SHIFTS. THE STEERING IS VERY TIGHT WITH A STEERING WHEEL THAT TURNS LEFT TO RIGHT SMOOTHLY WITH NO BINDING, PLAY, NOISE OR SLOP. THE TIRES ARE FACTORY SIZE 235/75/15 ALL TERRAINS THAT LOOK NEW IN TREAD DEPTH AND GIVES THIS TRUCK THAT THROW BACK OFF THE LOT NEW LOOK AND STANCE WRAPPED AROUND THE FACTORY CHROME WHEELS. WE HAD A FULL TUNE-UP DONE, THE OIL CHANGED AND ALIGNMENT. THIS DRIVE-TRAIN IS ORIGINAL AND WILL SHOW SOME DIRT AND GREASE BELOW AND ALONG THE BOTTOM OF THE MOTOR AS IT IS 28 YEARS OLD AND SEEN USE. THERE IS SOME SURFACE RUST ALONG SOME OF THE DRIVE-TRAIN AND FRAME FROM THE FACTORY PAINT WEARING OFF LONG AGO, BUT IT IS ALL SOLID AND NOT CANCER, JUST SIMPLY A USED HONEST TRUCK WITH NO RATTLE CAN BLACK SPRAY PAINT ALL OVER THE PLACE. THERE IS A DECAL ON THE CORE SUPPORT THAT SAYS THE A/C WAS CONVERTED OVER TO THE MODERN 134A FREON IN 2000, BUT IT IS NOW 17 YEAR OLD FREON AND NO LONGER BLOWS COLD. THE EXHAUST IS ALSO THE ORIGINAL 1989 PIECE AND DOES HAVE A VERY FAINT SMALL LEAK STARTING TO GIVE OFF THAT FEATHERING SOUND WHEN THE TRUCK IS COLD AND FADES OUT ONCE THE EXHAUST GETS HOT AND EXPANDS. OVERALL THIS IS A VERY TIGHT AND SOLID CLASSIC 4X4 TRUCK THAT IS A DEPENDABLE, SMOOTH, EASY DRIVING TRUCK THAT CAN BE TAKEN ANYWHERE!

The older the car, the harder it is to define the condition of the vehicle.Most of our vehicles are specialty vehicles or are 15+ years old, and usually trucks. Because of this, it is very difficult to describe each vehicle to everyone's satisfaction. Based on the bidder'spersonal experience, some bidders will be overly pleased with my description and pictures, and others may feel that I fell short. I postthese auctions based on how I want to see auctions when I'm buying, keeping in mind what I look for, and I try to put your eye's to what I can see and touch. Please help me by asking all questions and letting me know if other pictures are wanted. If you do not see a pic or description of a item or a area on the truck please do not assume anything and ask me about the specifics your a needing or for more pics and i will post every question asked by members so all potential bidders can see. Every car is available for inspection and i personally drive each vehicle before listing it and If anything does not work properly I will let you know. Of course I amonly human and these are mechanical creatures and these are usedvehicles, so please keep this in mind when bidding
