    1995 f-150 Centurion

    Per request about my truck here it is.
    To my knowledge Ford NEVER made a 4 door f-150 till 1997, ONLY f-250's and f-350's. And per helping a friend of mine look at new trucks in 1996, he was forced to buy a f250 for work.
    Centurion would extend the frame, and put together a factory looking 4 door F150. You would never know it was converted until you looked underneath it. They also made 4 door broncos. Now the story behind finding out about centurion 4 doors. Well about 12 years ago I am driving around and see one for the first time, and once I saw the five lug wheels I had to have one. My last truck was a 93 extended cab, 6.5 foot bed with the 5.0 and was on its last leg, so the hunt started. I looked off and on for a while and one late night on ebay led me to the chosen one, and I won the auction. Of course I am super excited, but the truck is in Texas over 1000 miles away on a sunday night at 11:30. And being self employed 6 days a week at the time. So I call up a good friend of mine and tell him to pack his bags, because he is flying to Texas in the morning at 8:00. And a couple days later its here. that was 10 years ago.

    The truck from the factory was a single cab truck, with the 5.8, cloth seats, and the 3.55 tow package. Then sent to Centurion for the conversion.
    Why own a truck when owning so many panthers? Well towing boats, motorcycles, cars and fitting in living in the south.

          That is how you're supposed to jack it.

          Up and down.

            long or short bed?

            A high school friend had a centurion bronco. Seems like it had 8-lugs if memory serves. Was twice the size of anything else in the parking lot.

              Will get more photos later in the day. Just hit 180,000 miles. It is a short bed, and centurion made 150's and 350's 4 door broncos, and 350's have 8 lugs. The friend I mentioned who bought the F250 new in 96 had a 8 foot bed crew cab and it was a beast.

                And just like the Centurion bronco I had to have my roof repaired a couple times also, because of how they made the cab.
