Here is a solid old pickup at a budget price. This 1976 Ford F150 short box comes from Arizona and has a lot of nice features including a 390ci engine, air conditioning, and Bluetooth stereo.
The F150 was introduced in 1975 as a step between the F100 and F250 models. This one has the desirable short box so it is easier to maneuver and will fit in any garage. Being from the southwest means this truck doesn’t have the rust problems that you often see on northern examples. The frame, floors, cab corners, etc. are all in great shape. The two-tone paint looks nice from a distance though fit and finish are commensurate with a work truck.
The engine appears to be the original 390ci FE with a 2-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock air cleaner. This is backed by a robust C6 automatic transmission and 9” rear end. Everything is in good operating condition. This F150 is also equipped with power steering and power brakes for easy driving. Recent maintenance includes a new drag link, tie rod ends, front end alignment, starter, voltage regulator, rear wheel cylinders, and rear exhaust pipes.
The interior is in nice condition with the Custom trim package. It features a recovered two-tone bench seat that is quite comfortable. The carpet, door panels, and headliner are in good shape too. There is a tall floor shifter with a wooden knob for operating the automatic transmission. Additional aftermarket items include a Grant steering wheel, underdash temperature gauge, and a touch screen stereo with Bluetooth capability. There is also an aftermarket air conditioning system – a must in Arizona!
While today’s market is full of classic trucks priced at $50k and beyond, this one is something different. It is a complete, turn-key driver with big block power and air conditioning along with a desirable body style and a reasonable price. Such pickups are getting harder to find every day.
