1992 Ford F150 XLT Flareside review from North America
"Good truck, bad rust"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rusty frame issue.
General comments?
Rusty body + frame, but try to restore. These models 1992 to 1996 F-150's short box standard cab Flaresides are probably the nicest truck out there, but you need the 5 litre or (302) motor.
But now I have to sandblast everything underneath of the truck. But if Ford won't rustproof or undercoat, it's your responsibility to do it. I worked at a scrap yard for many years. I see what comes in. Usually rust overcomes mechanical issues.
