Well, owning one OBS F-150 wasnt punishment enough so when I found a killer deal on this 1992 F-150, I jumped on it. Popped up on OfferUp for $2000 and I figured at that price, it probably needed some work, but the bones looked pretty solid. Figured screw it, the guy lives 4.5 miles from me might at well look at it. Took about a month of lining everything up, but finally went over to the guys house yesterday. Much to my surprise the truck was in really good shape, so I gave him a deposit and came back with the rest of the cash later.
1992 F-150 XLT
5.8
E4OD
4x4 w/ manual t case
204,000 Miles
AC Works
Passes smog
Super sweet 90s paint (you know this thing had a matching jet boat back in the day)
Not really sure what my plans are 100% yet, initially I bought it to flip but I think I'll just clean it up and drive it for now, immediate plans are to get some better wheels on it and fix the driver window (motor slips) and align the rear bumper better or replace it.

I wonder if that paint scheme was part of a post-factory applied package like the Mark III’s and Centurions? Any different badging or trim inside?

Nice score. Some alcoas and Tony paint magic on that red and you'll have people trying to buy it off you I bet.

I did get an offer 3k more than I paid the same day I bought it actually
I’m gonna clean it up and see if I can sell it in the 8-10 range if not I’ll keep it

no, leaving it as a clean blank canvas for the next buyer, but if you were interested in buying it we could make that happen before it ships!

I love it, but the last thing I need right now is another rig/project.

Update: added a saginaw pump and tinted the truck. Small exhaust leak coming from the passenger side manifold, I have a replacement and it will get done for the buyer unless they want to negotiate a lower price.
I am flexible and ready to move this truck so I can get my supercab out from Arizona.
