It was dyno tuned at 463 hp and 510lbs of torque

The last few pictures are some flaws to the truck. The bottom of my front lip was scraped from pulling into a parking spot..... I back in everywhere now just to be safe. The seats have some wear on them, they are the origional seats. The center consol has a worn spot from where my elbow sits. As you can tell from the pics I put in after market black carpet. The steering wheel plastic for the cruise control is gone on the left side and starting to fall apart on the right.

Call 954-649-7043 during the weekends/nights and Text me Mon-Fri 9-6 for any questions that you want answered.

Nice truck, any vids?

No videos of it, I only have a cell phone camera and that won't do it justice. The truck sounds mean.

Any accidents? Why was it painted?

I painted it because I had the opportunity to do it for little cost. A family friend owns a body shop and does great paint jobs. The motor was out at the time so the motor bay is painted as well. His name is Alan Goldstein and has a show on PBS called "Musclecar Workout"

I have been meaning to wash it and take some better pics, hopefully by the end of the weekend I have better pics up

Where is the truck located in Florida? I have a friend who would be very interested. Do you have the title or is there a lien. Are the Lightning logos put back on it yet?

Sent PM. I have the title in hand. The logo's have yet to be put back on. I keep calling the guy who painted it but he keeps putting it on the back burner... I will get them from him soon

Wow, great shade of yellow! You should slap some new cruise control buttons on the steering wheel, it would make the interior look much better. They aren't that expensive through Tousley Ford and are extremely easy to replace, I had to do the same to my '99.

Where in Florida is the truck, as my buddy is quite interested.

Do you have any touch up paint or a paint code?

Wow! This would be a sick tow vehicle for my Screaming Yellow Mach 1. I'm looking to sell my BMW S1000RR which I bought new for $18k and I'm looking to get $15k for it.. Any chance you would be interested in a trade?

Your right, that would be a pretty cool set up! Thanks for the offer but I'm not interested in bikes. I'm looking for an outright sale, I would only trade if someone wanted to trade their 06+ F150.

I hope that is a typo, most guys make 400/500 with a 6lb lower and a few bolt ons. Might want to clear that stuff up

Does this have a clean or salvage title?

The title is clean.

Good catch. 12lb lower pulley lol... it is a 4lb lower

I have stopped putting forth effort in selling the truck until I figure out this dispute with the shop that put the tune on my truck. I have been calling them for weeks now letting them know that the check engine light has came on after they tuned my truck. They kept brushing it off like it is no problem. At first it didn't effect the performance but it slowly started to spit/sputter. After countless attempts of trying to get them to fix their tune I keep getting the same response, we don't have room right now. I may have to bite the bullet and buy an SCT tuner and get it tuned else where. I have not gone past 1/3 throttle since the check engine light has came on


Once I get everything settled and the truck running right I am going to put up videos of it at idle and while driving (Thanks to my new HD Video recording on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus:rockon:). I don't want to try to sell a vehicle that isn't running to its full potential.

I will update the thread once the check engine light issue is fixed
