BaT Auction: Single-Family-Owned 1997 Ford XLT F-350 Power Stroke 4×4

This 1997 Ford F-350 XLT 4×4 is finished in Oxford White over Opal Gray cloth and was purchased new by the seller and his father from Friendly Ford in Las Vegas, Nevada. The truck is powered by a 7.3-liter turbodiesel V8 mated to a four-speed automatic transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes 16″ alloy wheels, dual fuel tanks, a Banks Technicooler intercooler, a Magnaflow exhaust system, tow mirrors, and air conditioning. This F-350 shows 99k miles and is offered in Nevada with service records, a window sticker, original purchase documents, manufacturer’s literature, a Carfax report, and a clean Arizona title in the seller’s name.

The crew-cab pickup is finished in Oxford White and features towing mirrors, tilt-out front vent windows, and chrome bumpers. Additional equipment includes a hitch receiver, black side steps, a rubber bed mat, and a diamond-plate tailgate cap and bed rails. The seller notes that the inside of the bed and tailgate have been re-painted.

Factory 16” forged alloy wheels are mounted with 235/85 Firestone Transforce AT2 tires. The truck is equipped with manually-locking front hubs, front Bilstein shocks, and a rear airbag supplemental suspension kit.

The cabin features two rows of seating upholstered in Opal Gray cloth along with a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpeting. Amenities include air conditioning, cruise control, power locks and windows, and a Kenwood CD player with an aftermarket amplifier, subwoofer, and speakers.

A black leather-wrapped steering wheel frames an 85-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and factory auxiliary gauges. The digital odometer shows 99k miles. An auxiliary gauge pod has been mounted to the A-pillar and contains Auto-Meter boost pressure, pyrometer, and transmission temperature gauges.

The 7.3-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel V8 has been modified with an aftermarket air intake, a Banks Technicooler intercooler and turbo housing, and a Magnaflow downpipe and exhaust system. Recent service is said to have included an oil change. The seller notes that the camshaft sensor was replaced prior to the recall.

Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission, a dual-range transfer case, and a limited slip differential. The seller reports that the front and rear differential oils and transmission fluid were recently changed. Corrosion is visible on underbody components, and additional underside photos are presented in the gallery.

The window sticker shows factory colors, equipment, and a total price of $35,325.

The Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists history in Nevada and Arizona. An open factory recall for the camshaft position sensor is noted from 2007.
