1,035 th Truck Built at Norfolk Originally built as a Bright Dark
Blue Metallic (S) truck. During the restoration the vehicle was
refinished in Ford Azure Blue, which is a 2003 model year color,
also 1970 Grabber Blue. The repaint is in modern base coat
clearcoat and has seasoned very well since completion in 2012. The
exterior body straightening and preparation has resulted in a very
clean up to date look, they certainly didn't build these trucks to
this high standard in 1978! Frame, suspension, axles and all
related assemblies are either new or refurbished with most being
powder coated for durable longevity. Power is from a non-original
351ci V8 equipped with Holley 4BBL carb and is backed by a 4-speed
automatic transmission. This F100 rides and drives like a new
truck, very tight, very quick too! A custom black soft toneau bed
cover can be stretched over the bed side rails to cover the
beautifully installed and stained real wood bed floor. Seats are
trimmed in blue knit cloth and equipped with matching lap belts. A
horizontally-mounted stereo is installed on the lower dash, and the
factory steering wheel is in like new condition. The 5-digit
odometer currently shows 45k miles. This F100 is being offered for
sale with a clear Ohio title with true miles unknown (TMU).
Although every mechanical and drive train component has either been
refurbished or replaced. The actual miles driven since completion
in 2014 are less the a few thousand. Please call us for more
