Vehicle Description
This is what a vintage pickup truck is all about. There has been
care and investments here to keep this 1968 Ford F-100 Ranger
looking authentic. So look over everything from the slick paint to
the stylish interior, and soon you'll discover a true V8
classic.
The factory-correct Raven Black on this truck is that great kind of
color that was made legendary by cool cruising Fords like the
original Thunderbird. It's a timeless hue that that's very
desirable today, which is the theme of this pickup. It has the
classic square-jaw appearance we all love in these pickups that are
a reminded of a hard day's work set to sheetmetal. But you can also
tell from the nice condition of the body that, if this ever pulled
a double-shift, those days have long since been erased. The
range-topping Ranger gives you nice upgrades, like the bright trim
that runs from front to back, and below that, there are stylish
stainless rocker and wheel well moldings. So while you're enjoying
brightwork like the big chrome bumpers, don't forget to appreciate
how authentic this truck looks - right down to the factory wheel
covers.
The moment you open the door, this pickup gives off the premium
impression a Ranger should. The exterior black returns, and now
it's combined with a tasteful red. We especially like the look of
the bench seat with a nicely interwoven two-tone and even insignia
trim on the seatbacks. The color theme and pattern continues on the
door panels, and that combines with fresher investment in the
carpeting and headliner to make this a nice place to spend some
time. And because this wants to truly feel vintage, there are some
well-aged pieces to remind you of the originality. The stylish
steering wheel looks like it still has the grooves of the workmen
that have come before you. The dash is so original that rather than
replace the AM radio, they left the separate FM receiver for a true
period-correct touch.
The 360 cubic-inch V8 looks great under the hood with its big blue
block, proper blue "Powered by Ford" valve covers, and even the
blue air cleaner. It's a standout package that feels like it's
radiating power out of the engine bay. But more than just bold
looks, the V8 fires up with the kind of eagerness that tells you
the investment and care in this pickup was far more than just
cosmetic. It makes for an appealing cruiser that includes a
three-speed automatic transmission and modern Hankook rubber behind
the classic tire look.
When you need a vintage pickup with a true feeling of authenticity,
you know it's hard to be the presentation on this one. So don't
miss this deal. Call now!
