Vehicle Description
This 1968 Ford F250 4x4 Pickup is a Highboy Ranger XLT!! This was a
lifelong California truck that was frame-off restored over a 5 year
period and has less than 1,000 miles since being completed around 3
years ago. The only reason we were able to obtain this truck is
because the last owner became ill and had to sell it. This is a
really really nice frame off restored original highboy. The truck
was a labor of love for this person and he restored everything
cosmetically and mechanically. When it was restored he searched
long and hard to find original Ford parts for the restoration. The
body on this truck is as straight as an arrow and the black paint
proves it. The paint is gorgeous and straight as well. With black
paint you would be able to see if there were issues and there are
none. The body work and paint are excellent and the truck was
totally dis-assembled when painted. All of the chrome and stainless
are excellent and he spent long hours searching for New, Old Stock
Parts or the best used parts he could find to complete. This truck
has the Ranger package with the full trim and it gives it a great
look. When he restored it he put a 70 Grille in the truck because
he liked it better. We do have the original 68 Grille if you want
it. It is still in good original condition.
The interior is also restored and excellent. Everything was gone
through and is working. Everything is either new, replaced, or
repaired. This includes recovered seat, new weatherstripping and
new window seals.
Mechanically this truck was completely gone through and is either
new or rebuilt. The engine is a 390 V8 that came out of a 2WD 1968
F250. He had the engine completely rebuilt and it runs strong and
runs excellent!! Transmission is the NP435 4 Speed manual that
shifts really nice. It is mated to the DANA 24 Transfer Case. All
of the 4WD functions as it should. The Rear Axle is a DANA 60 with
4.10 Gears and locking Differential. Front Axle is a DANA 44 with
4.10 Gears. This truck has Power Brakes and he added a nice set of
Vintage Style Aluminum Wheels with 33 Inch Tires. He restored this
Highboy to look stock and it really runs and drives excellent. A
true Show and Go truck!!!
