We are excited to have a 1993 F150 Ford Lightning with a Vortec
Supercharger. This truck has 11000 original miles and shows as it
did new 24 years ago. Finished in Red it is 1/ 2585 built for the
model year. Entering the full-size sport truck marketplace in 1993,
the SVT F-150 Lightning brought a more balanced approach to
high-performance pickups. Instead of focusing only on straight-line
acceleration, Lightning added sporty handling and towing
functionality to the mix. It could lap a race course as fast or
faster than a Mustang GT of the same vintage. It could also tow up
to 5,000 pounds. Developed by the F-150 team and given to SVT to
market, the Lightning featured a high-output 351 cubic-inch V-8
rated at 240 horsepower, good for 0-60 mph sprints in the mid
7-second rang and quarter-mile times in the mid-15s. This Lightning
takes that to a higher level thanks to the addition of a Vortec
Supercharger. SVT and Ford of course are famous for their
supercharged super cars and trucks but in 93 the Lightning was
naturally aspirated. The engineers at Ford would not add a
supercharger to the Lightning until 1997. Performance enthusiasts
are drawn to the Lightning, as illustrated by the number of owners
who brought their hot-rodding ways to the truck. Making vehicles
like this one very hard to find. The original owner kept this truck
for 17 years and it had under 10,000 miles on it in 2010 when he
sold it. To view this 1993 Ford F150 Lightning in greater detail,
