1990 C150 @ U-Pull-N-Pay junk yard, Denver, CO

[Oregon_C350]

The U-Pull-N-Pay in Denver, CO has a C150 in the yard. has complete 2nd seat and Bronco rear 3rd seat.

I had never checked out a C150 and wow are they different than the C350. Using all the bronco panels in the rear, different headliner, different floor pan etc.

It had f150 badges on the fenders, and the "product of Centurion Vehicles" had been removed, no other centurion specific parts that I could find.

Interior is blue.

Did you nab the luggage rack? Those are few and far between.

Very cool find.
Kind of sounds more like a metropolitan conversion though.
They stuck more closely to ford factory parts and had stickers in similar places.

if thats a metro and it has the folding second row seatback(standard doesnt fold) GRAB THAT SEAT!!!

Poor little feller.......

well, you can clearly see that on the front fender, that looks like where a badge was that c150 centurion like some of the centurions do. i would ask everyone on here if they are looking for a particular part and grab everyone something that way everyone will be happy.

[4doorbronko]

Look closer. It's an F as previously stated.

With F150 badges I'm guessing it's a 87 or 88

Why?

There's no cutoff date where Centurion switched to exclusive C badges.

My '89 was is an "F" badge, the '94 1/2 ton was a "C" badge, my '94 350 is a "C" badge and my '95 350 is an "F" badge.

It wouldn't surprize me if Centurion sent a few out with a "C" on one fender and an "F" on the other.
I think they sent the "F"'s out when they were out of "C" badges from time to time. No sense holding up a $45K paycheck over a set of badges.




































































Almost forgot.................................

it is an f, but it has to be 87-91 body style because thats when they used the kool looking badges when they changed them over in 92-97 on the f series and broncos. the first pic is a 78-91, the second is a 92-97

Jeff, my understanding is not until late 88 or 89 is when the C badges where put on. Then the last FDB's to roll out the door in late 96 didn't get any do to there being no more.

Not sure if your post came out the way you wanted it to or not. This is how I know the Badges over the past almost 40 years.

1973-1976


1977-1979


1980-1981 (Die Cast Metal)


1982-1986 (Die Cast Metal)


1987-1991


1992-1996


1997 same as 92-96 with Heavy Duty for F250/350. Custom, XL, XLT was not on these badges.

[Traveler]

Y'all noticed the title said 1990 right?

[4doorbronko]

Yeah, but since that fact had already been bypassed I just went with the flow.

There are no absolutes when it comes to what Centurion did from one year to the next.

[aceman]

I'm new here, my 1991 C-250 has the same interior, is also a metro?
