1979 Ford F-250 Ranger XLT. I have owned this truck since 1996 and have done a lot of work to it.

Has 2 small dents, both on the back of the cab, see pictures below.
Known issues: Motor has an oil leak, pretty sure it is coming from the rear seal of the oil pan. If I were to keep this truck it would get crossover steering. It steers tight as it is but with the large tires it does get a bit of bump steer. I put around 200 miles a year on this truck.
Auction DOES NOT include the front push bar.
I am open to entertain all offers on the truck. I am not looking to trade for anything, already have to many other toys. If you have any questions you can send me an email or can reach me on my cell phone at eight four seven 774- four five four seven.
