Backed by Federal Vehicle Title Data
This 1997 Ford F-350 XLT Crew Cab Long Bed 4x4 is a clean, well-kept example of the final-year OBS Ford platform, powered by the legendary 7.3L Power Stroke turbo diesel V8 paired with the E4OD automatic transmission and 4-wheel drive. Known for its durability, pre-emissions simplicity, and long-term reliability, the 7.3L remains one of the most respected diesel engines produced, making trucks like this increasingly desirable among enthusiasts and collectors alike. With 197,387 miles, this truck reflects careful ownership, documented service history, and tasteful upgrades that complement its original character.
Finished in two-tone Oxford White over Light Opal Metallic with a gray cloth interior, this truck presents exceptionally well and retains a clean, classic OBS appearance. The stance has been subtly improved with a 2-inch leveling kit while maintaining factory-like drivability and ride quality. Factory Alcoa 16-inch aluminum wheels are wrapped in brand new BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 tires (295/75R16), giving the truck a proper stance while preserving its original look. Additional exterior upgrades include a spray-in bedliner, adding practicality while complementing the truck’s clean overall presentation.
The gray cloth interior is in excellent condition and shows very well throughout, with clean seating surfaces, carpeting, and trim that reflect careful ownership and minimal wear for the mileage. The spacious crew cab configuration offers excellent passenger room front and rear, while factory XLT trim equipment includes power windows, power locks, cruise control, and a folding center console. An aftermarket Alpine stereo has been installed for improved audio functionality while maintaining a clean, understated appearance. Original owner’s manuals, factory literature, and service records are also included.
Mechanically, the truck runs and drives excellent with strong, consistent power delivery and smooth transmission operation. Performance upgrades include a TS Performance 6-position chip and a Riffraff Diesel intake filter, offering improved drivability and airflow while retaining the dependable characteristics the 7.3L platform is known for. Additional upgrades include a Hughes Performance aluminum transmission pan along with upgraded aluminum front and rear differential covers for improved cooling and durability.
Recent service includes new BFGoodrich KO3 tires, Bilstein 4600 series shocks, all new tie rods, a fresh alignment, and a coolant flush. The truck also benefits from a remanufactured Ford transmission installed at approximately 158,000 miles, adding additional confidence to the drivetrain. Service documentation and maintenance records further support the level of care this truck has received throughout its life.
Exterior condition is excellent overall, with a clean, straight body and a finish that presents exceptionally well. The interior remains equally impressive and retains a highly original appearance that is becoming increasingly difficult to find on OBS Ford trucks of this era.
