OBS Strokers?
 
Come on boys, I know your here. Lets see who has an OBS here! Dont tell my truck but the OBS is my favorite Powerstroke! Classic looks and great potential. Way ahead of its day.

heres mine it was a 95 with 175k on it, i sold it for $8000 on ebay last october

JON 06-11-2007 02:44 PM

Nice
 
Good looking ol truck. It would have been real sharp with a set of the OBS aluminum rims.

DBogo 06-11-2007 04:01 PM

yea i kept trying find them but i couldnt cheap, then it started to nickel and dime me so i sold it and went for the cummins, it was a great truck, ran like a top but the auto was much to be desired

Hey
 
Sweet ride! I like it. What kind of power did she put down on the dyno?

DazedandConfused 06-11-2007 07:05 PM

sweet!
 
That is a beautiful OBS!

4rcFed 07-24-2007 11:59 AM

Thanks man!!:up:



Just been drivin' the wheels off of it!! Got a shelf load of parts waiting to go on, but trying to get some progress on my car as well. Oh well, in due time I guess!

DazedandConfused 07-24-2007 02:41 PM

Rich has the best looking OBS I've ever seen. Waiting to see the 60 go under the front, new wheels/tires, and everything else he has to do to it.

Thanks for the compliments!!!


You think you're waiting to see these parts go on!!!!:w2::c:

DazedandConfused 07-24-2007 09:10 PM

You have more will power then me, they would already be on there if it was mine. Or maybe it would be in pieces and I would be scratching my head wondering what I was doing.lol

4rcFed 07-24-2007 09:12 PM

I also hear there is a heck of a clean F350 OBS (reg. cab), possibly for sale too, locally - - - - - that has 8,600 miles!!! Yep, you read that right!:up:


But the price is ummmmmm........pretty high!

Naaaa, no more will power. Just my older Camaro hasn't seen the track in many, many moons!! So it is time for it to see the daylight again!



............and burn some tires off of it again too!:c:

LOGANSTANFORTH 10-19-2007 08:30 AM

i need to get some pics of my moms, hers is a 97 F350 crew cab long bed 4x4 5 speed with chrome grilleguard, tool box, bed rails, gooseneck ball, 285/75/16's on the forged aluminum factory wheels, maroon with the silver center. its called "Red Rock", says "if your aint strokin it, your just playing with it" around a big maroon ford emblem in the back window. she had a 1993 crewcab 2wd dually automatic with a 7.3 IDI before that with 180+ miles.

Diesel Nut 11-01-2007 10:18 PM

I have 306k on my 96' with many pulls on it. I will try to git pictures up soon.

Michael 11-09-2007 11:36 AM

Mine is neither good looking or fast (but it's at least faster than the Banks-equipped OBS trucks which show up at the local dragstrip). I bracket race it every week during the racing season. I agree Rich's OBS looks like it just rolled out of a car show.

Michael Pliska

Thank you, I try to keep up on it..........Would you believe it's been on construction sites everyday for the past ten years? Has well over 200k miles, all towing 8,000lbs. and hasn't given me the least bit of brief. Love it, I'd give up my new Dodge before ever letting go of the Ford.

Wow - that truck looked SWEET with those harley looking wheels and clear lights!

did he upgrade???

2500HeavyDuty 12-13-2007 03:35 AM

well he got a newer vehicle... a Mustang GT. Hes lives breathes and eats fords. His Stang Is pretty fast, But he hasn't seen my truck lately:guns:

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

When he had a PSD in it he had true Duals looked sweet doing down the road seeing a puff of black smoke coming out alternating sides. Then turbo came and just had duals. But when he dropped the cummins in he got this exhaust

Here's mine. Not the greatest pictures in the world, but i took em after it snowed. OBS trucks are the best ones Ford ever put out IMO. Now the whips are off of the mirrors too, I'll get some new picts when I can.
