This Ford F-Series 1992-1997 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1996 Ford F-150 XL is a standard-cab long-bed pickup that is said to have remained with the original owner’s family until November 2022, and it was acquired by the seller on BaT in January 2023. Work since that time consisted of refinishing the bumpers and replacing the windshield, wiper arms and washer nozzles, bed support brackets, and the rear fuel tank along with the fuel pump, filler neck, and cap. The truck is finished in Dark Toreador Red Clearcoat Metallic over gray vinyl upholstery and is powered by a 4.9-liter inline-six linked to a five-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes styled 15″ steel wheels, a drop-in bedliner, dual fuel tanks, air conditioning, and an AM/FM radio. This F-150 has 45k miles and is offered with a clean Carfax report and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.
