ok guys my10th gen truck got toatalled in a crash dec 18 now im looking for a new truck. i found a 92 f150 with a 302 and a 4 speed manual tranny, 4x4 reg cab long box on 33" mts no lift kit 139,xxx miles am i looking at a good truck? what should i be able to get the truck for?

 

really hard to tell you what the trucks worth with no pictures, but what condition is the paint in? interior? is it a base model with manual windows or is it a XLT? is rust an issue where you live and if so how rusted is it?

 

interior and paint are in perfect condition zero rust and i believe its an xl idk if its power windows or not i dont think it has power windows but the back window is a slider

 

1500-2000 would be my best guess. maybe a little less.

 

hes asking 3500 just by looking at pictures it loks worth 3300 is there anything i should look for when i go look at the truck personally?

 

offer him 3k and just look for any leaks, rust on the rear leaf spring hangers, sagging front ends because the front springs wear to light duty for these trucks. listen for any ticking, look for bald spots on the tires. uhhh thats all i can think of right now, someone else will chime in with mores stuff to check out im sure.

oh and dont forget pictures lol.

 

It should be a 5 spd. Check to see how trans shift if it shifts kinda hard you could bent shift forks that seems to happen a bit. Cracked or broke leaf and coil springs. If xl probly no pwr options. If its 4-4 check to see if it works good ect.

 

ok thanks tires are brand new! including the spare they are all mounted on 15x10" rims

 

when i talked to him he said 4spd but i will find out sunday im gunna offer 3300 if it all checks out

 

From description and what I am picturing on my head, I would guesstimate anywhere between, $2500--$3500 depending on what all track has and over all condition.

Make sure both tanks work if it has duall tanks. Check fluids, for overall condition. Ask when clutch and brakes were changed. Common areas are the inside door lever breaking off, if rear slider window the lock tab comes off and clocksprings are know to give trouble. Good way to tell on that is Cruise wont work, or work irregularly, (or airbag light blinking) but truck being 92 wont have air bag.
