One of a kind wide body high top conversion by Cabriolet. 7.3 diesel, Banks Sidewinder Turbo, Gear Vendors overdrive, US Gear exhaust brake. Title and truck show 93,200 miles but I suspect it is once around. About 20,000 miles on extensive and expensive full mechanical overhaul including engine with all new injection, transmission, driveshafts, rear, brakes, front end and more. 6 new tires. 60 gallon aux. tank in bed. 5th wheel hitch and class 3. I have most original paperwork, documentation, and receipts. Truck runs and drives well but needs a list of minor items adressed. Body is good with a couple small bumps. Interior is all there and decent but aged. This is a former Texas truck so underneath is very good. I no longer have the time or money to take care of it so it needs a new home. I am interested in possible trade on a nice Excursion ONLY.

Email reply or call Mike for more info. 609 - 694 - 3845

IT has Aerostar tail lights. I would love one of these.

I called on this one ....

Work was done over 8 years ago
Exhaust rusted away
Turbo does no spool up - no exhaust backpressure
Titled as a truck

Not inspected - exempt because it is between 10K and 18K

Not run regularly in years

High dollar project in my opinion

So the turbo doesn't spool because there's no back pressure? Wonder why both my 7.3's ran with no muffler, one of which is a very short system (both straight pipes)... is it because the exhaust is rusted away or a bunch more issues?

That's sad to hear, other than the Aerostar tail lights it looked like a good clean truck, which is why I posted it.

FYI for others that are on the lookout for a Centurion, I'm using www.craigslook.com to search a couple different things nationwide easily. Adding the search string Ford centurion and 350 centurion to the saved searches seems to catch just about all these trucks.

Ya, did you tell me mine are Chevy taillights? I'm sure it was just a cross over at some point where they found it easier or more cost effective to use the Aerostars.

they are, 73-87 p.u. taillights... see em on a lot of service boxes as well. Simple, effective, D.O.T. compliant.

Just like seeing 87-97 F series truck head lights on newer motor homes.
