Lot 138, Guide price: £20,000 to £24,000 Ford F250 1976 pick-up offered for sale in good condition and completely restored. Imported in 2018, this vehicle is a good example of a completely restored F250, showcasing a beautiful interior and good paintwork. Before its complete restoration, this vehicle was in a running but tired looking state and needed extensive repair. The entire truck was stripped, and the chassis and steering arms were sand blasted and then coated in red oxide and finished in a black epoxy for protection. New bushes, suspension and shocks were added to make the chassis complete. All the rotten floors were cut out and replaced with hand replacement panels. The rear bulk head was then straitened, as it had some dents from its previous farm life. All the existing paint was then stripped to reveal a bare metal body and any external dings and dents were repaired and pulled and plenished, once straight it was finished in epoxy primer. The pattern replacement wing had terrible fitment but was needed due to the state of the original wing. The top of the original wing was welded to the pattern wing to give proper fitment. Again they were bare metaled, all dings were pulled, straightened and the wings were finished in an epoxy primer. The same process was done for the bonnet, buck and tail gate pulling and beating all dents until it was straight and the bare metal was coated in an epoxy primer. Once everything was in epoxy primer it was then coated in slick sand high build primer, test fitted and hand blocked for a straight finish, before its final Striking blue finish. For the final build, the vendor sourced a genuine bench seat and had it re trimmed with all new interior. The front grill and seals were all imported from LMC Truck in the US to finish it off as a truly outstanding truck. To completely restore this truck from start to finish it consisted of over 700 man hours with every area of the build being meticulously cared for and finished to the highest level of standard. Unfortunately this vehicle has been in storage for 9 months and due to this, it has developed some chrome spotting on the wheels and engine bay. There are also a couple of small dents from where it has been stored.
