1989 F-350 BRONCO CENTURION 460 V8 on Kijiji http://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars/winnipeg/1989-f-350-bronco-centurion-460-v8/1053793288
1989 Ford F350 Centurion 4 Door Bronco, very rare vehicle sold new in Canada.
In order to offer a competitor for Chevrolet's four-door Suburban, a four-door conversion of the F-series crew cab by Michigan-based Centurion Vehicles was offered through Ford dealerships. Centurion would start with a Crew Cab pickup, on which they shortened the wheelbase to 140 inches (3,600 mm) and applied a Bronco rear end.
This paticular Centurion is a 1 ton F350 based example with the added desirability of 4 wheel drive. This is the most heavy duty Centurion that was available and possibly the rarest.
It is powered by the legendary 385 Series Ford V8 in 460cid guise with electronic fuel injection. This motors are very desirable and well known for the excellent torque and longevity. Still a favourite choice for many high performance boats and industrial applications where power and reliability are a must. It is mated to the very strong Ford C6 automatic transmission. Both motor and transmission in this Centurion are in excellent condition so it runs and drives very well.
It has seating for 9 passengers with 3 rows of seats and a large trunk. The interior is complete and in good condition showing minimal wear in keeping with the age and mileage of the vehicle.
The exterior of this Centurion is very good for its age. There is no severe rust, just a few minor paint blisters. The original paint is very good and there is no dents or body damage to speak of.
Overall an excellent original example of a very rare vehicle.
