1997 Black F150 Extended Cab XLT. Was a bit of a project truck of mine, but I still have driven it a TON of miles. Its been engine swapped with a 5.0, but still has OBDII EFI.
The Good(read slow, take it all in):
5.0 Engine from low miles 97 Explorer. Has E303 cam, Scorpion 1.7 roller rockers, FMS 1 5/8 Stainless Steel Shorties. Has the Explorer intake, GT40Ps, 24lb injectors and the big throttle body. Runs AWESOME.
True dual exhaust consisting of 2.5" Flows...2 Chamber.. It sounds bad as f*ck.
4R70W automatic trans. Replaced 40K miles ago with genuine Ford trans. Bought it at the dealer in Kissimmee.
SCT X-Calibrator 2
Way oversize radiator
Good interior. Some stains, but none of the grey cloth interior is torn or has holes in it.
Power windows, power locks, power mirrors, etc. Avital alarm with remote start, but for some reason its only cranking the engine, not actually firing it.. Probably a relay gone bad.
Ice cold A/C
All new control arms, shocks about 15K miles ago
I think I did brakes and rotors on it too, cant remember.
NO RUST.
ARE Fibreglass locking tonnaeu cover
Engine swap was done in Summer 2006... Has been trouble free.
Bed mounted subwoofer enclosure for 4 10" subs. The enclosure takes up the front foot of the bed, but NONE of the cab. The rear wall of the cab was cut out(below the gussets) along with the front wall of the bed and joined with a rubber boot. Was performed in 2004 or 2005, and has not leaked a drop of water.
Truck has 3.08 gears, but will throw in a set of 3.73s with the truck.The bad(skim over this, LOL):
Typical dings for a 1997 pickup that gets used. Could use paint and some quick body work.
Heater core needs hooked back up. Heater core was actually replaced a few years ago, but an adaptor on the hose broke so I bypassed it on the side of the road.. Never got around to hooking it back up.
Im keeping the stereo(unless someone wants to pay for it). The enclosure stays.
This thing will make a great hauler for taking a car to the track, towing a boat, etc. Would also make a great project truck to put on bags. I had no plans of getting rid of it for a long time. I wanted a 4wd and was going to convert and lift it using a divorced box and straight axle but I dont have the time and just went out and got an F350. I'd drive this thing anywhere though. Hell, I just lent it to a girl friend for 2 weeks and she had no problems with it(if the swap worries you).
I want $1700 for it... Pretty firm because much less and it gets worth more at the scrap yard once the engine is pulled.
