junk yard find

at my local junkyard there was a centurion 4 door psd 350 bronco, iv never actually seen one in person before. looks like its been sitting a while. last inspected in 08. debating bout grabing the motor, its 100 plus 25 core plus tax. it at least make a good mock up motor if i were to make new uppipes/ turbo mount or something. hpop is missing too.

Yeah, sad to see both the pre-scrap (body) and post-scrap (engine parts) rust on what was once a rare and formidable vehicle. Gotta wonder if it was the body rust that sent it there.

Hey, this is gonna sound crazy, but if you do go back for anything, it looks like one of the studs for the missing "Darth Vader" engine cover is there, and the black capped nut is there. Any chance you could snag that nut and throw it in an envelope to me? I can PayPal you if so. Please PM me if this is possible.

Oh to be able just to scrounge through that! I'd love to have those rear window rain caps.

That's it exactly. And just the nut. I know, very minor thing, but it's my wife's truck, and I lost the nut. PM coming shortly.

So I wonder, were these built on a CCSB frame? Or an ECLB? Or was even the frame a one-off. Notice, also, the sooper-doody F350 badge... (...or is that an early '90s vintage badge?...)

Pretty bad to the bone! I would rather have one of them than a Excursion.

I got a '97 Powerstroke this summer for $100 myself with all accessories. I kept the engine and put the oil pan on my fathers '97 F-350 and I used the ICP sensor. All ready got my moneys worth. I say get it QUICK!
