1989 Ford F-350 Lariat XLT Description

This is one fantastic 1 Ton (11,000 lb GVWR) truck! 1989 Ford F350 - 4 door crew cab - 8' bed - 7.3L IDI V8 International motor with a Banks Sidewinder Turbo. Full tow kit, inc. trailer brake controller. Upgraded aluminum wheels and heavy duty tires. Leather wrapped steering wheel, tinted rear and back windows, power windows up front (rear windows - only factory option was manual windows), power locks, cruise control, fitted dash carpet, windshield sunshade. Interior was upgraded to Roll Along, they made the front seats and they have foldaway armrests. The seats are in good condition. Center console was custom made out of wood and has a removable main storage box and four cup holders. Truck has rear bed cap in matching paint finish (rear window of cap does not lock). Bed of truck, sides and top of rails is Rhino Linings lined and is in good condition. There is no rust and the body overall is solid. Truck has two fuel tanks. I have a full cover for the truck. The heads were replaced (see photo - full body removal to access the engine at 247K). I own the cd-rom from Ford for the 1989 Truck Shop Manual (6 Volumes) which covers this truck. I have the owners manual and other paperwork that comes with the purchase of the truck.
Issues: The truck has some dents/dings/chips - see photos. The power window switch on the passenger side (front door) does not work. The power lock switch on the drivers side (front door) does not work. The right rear door lock does not lock with the power button, it only works manually. The stereo is a Blaupunkt removable face unit and it works, but is old.The turn signal switch is function and works well but the reset spring broke and you have to manually turn it off. The truck has a sensor out of wack, when reaching shift points if you sit at one (35mph as an example) it will "search" for the shift and do 1K rev's until you go a little faster then it will make the shift. The meeting point where the turbo attaches to the engine the seal leaks a bit of oil. The windshield is old and has some chips. The gas gauge works but is "off" center E is just past mid marker for both tanks. The tailgate Ford reflector (red) came loose (it is double stick taped on from the factory) and I liked it better with it off so I have it and it is in perfect condition but I did not reinstall it. The interior headliner is in great condition, on the passenger side the plastic trim is bent a bit. Folks it is 30 years old.
I use it everyday and love to drive it, but it has gotten too big for me. I do not need to pull with it anymore (I own a motorcycle training company and move bikes from site to site) and it is usually just me driving it. If I could afford to, I would keep it and get something else, but I can not afford two vehicles worth of expenses.
So I am selling my love :-(
