This 1969 Ford F-250 is a long-wheelbase Flareside 4×4 pickup powered by a Y-code 360ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Factory equipment includes a divorced dual-range transfer case, a Dana 60 rear axle with a locking differential, a wood-planked floor for the Flareside bed, a power take-off, and a Philco AM radio.
This truck is finished in red and features an earlier-style grille, towing mirrors, and a drop-down tailgate for the Flareside bed. Fading, wear, and corrosion are noted by the seller, as are remnants of removed side graphics from the truck’s use as a fire department vehicle.
The truck rides on 15″ steel wheels wearing a set of Firestone Winterforce tires, both of which were installed by the seller. The truck is equipped with power-assisted brakes, which were serviced by the seller with replacement of the master cylinder along with the right-rear wheel seal and brake shoe, and the system was also bled. A Chelsea power take off runs off of the transfer case, and is said to have powered a bed-mounted water pump.
The interior features body-colored metal surfaces, gray carpeting, and a bench seat clad in a saddle blanket-style covering. Equipment includes a Philco AM radio, a dome light, and a heater, the latter of which is equipped with replacement controls.
The three-spoke steering wheel frames a horizontal 100-mph speedometer, an ammeter, and gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 64k miles.
The 360ci V8 is equipped with a single carburetor and was rated at 215 horsepower and 327 lb-ft. of torque when new. An oil change and replacement of the carburetor, steering column bearing, and mufflers were completed in preparation for the sale, and ignition components and axle pinion seals were replaced during prior ownership.
Power is transferred to the rear or all four wheels through a four-speed New Process manual transmission, a divorced two-speed transfer case, and a Dana 44-6CF front axle and a 60 rear axle with a locking differential and 4.10:1 gears.
