This 1978 Ford F-250 for sale. Motorcar Classics is now offering

until 2015 the truck is finished in Bright Dark Blue Metallic and

replacing the starter and flywheel. The F250 featured a 3/4-ton

auxiliary battery connection in the bed, a larger radiator, and
front and rear sway bars. Dual fuel tanks and an external storage
compartment were optioned, and a front bumper bar, wind deflector,
side steps, and color-keyed wheel arch flares are believed to be
accessories added by the dealership at the time of the original
sale. The bed was repainted by the previous dealer. Pacer eight-lug

front bench with additional seating in the rear. Wood-look appliqus
and carpets were included with the Ranger XLT trim level. The

operated with the floor shifter. A period Kenwood cassette deck was
installed under previous ownership. The woodgrain-accented steering
wheel fronts square gauges including a five-digit odometer that
