For Sale: 1979 Ford F150 in Lavergne, Tennessee

A powerful V8, bright paint, and true 4x4 prowess headline this 1979 Ford F-150. It makes for a great truck for work AND play.

This truck has the right attitude. The blue paint is a newer application with a nice metallic that looks great in the sunshine. It shows off the well-chiseled lines of this beefy pickup. The bright chrome front bumper and new grille love to highlight the special 1979 front end. There's even more shine coming off the new ProComp wheels. But while this pickup is straight and clean, it's not so fancy that it misses out on true truck usefulness. There's the tall 4x4 stance, painted rear step bumper, and liner paint in the bed. So this is ready for everything from off-road fun to the weekend chores.

The interior makes good investments in the right truck fundamentals. That means fresh carpeting, good door panels, and a new cover for the bench seat. The dash has a clean look, and it keeps classic elements like the dealer air conditioning (you will need components and servicing to return the function.) The factory gauges look crisp and clear. And now it's easier to see them because the upgraded chrome steering wheel is mounted on an updated tilt column.

Under the hood is Ford's mighty 460 cubic-inch V8. It has the fresh look of a solid investment. This includes performance upgrades like a Brawler four-barrel carburetor and Weiand intake. It's supported by the right pieces, too, like a serpentine belt system, Ford Racing plug wires, and an aluminum radiator. It makes a nice rumble out of the dual exhaust, and the V8 also delivers good power for off-road work. Not only do you have a two-speed 4x4 transfer case, but also upgraded Skyjacker Black Max shocks and brand new Nexen Roadian A/T tires. Plus, power steering, power brakes, front discs, and the stout C6 three-speed automatic transmission are fine anytime features.

This is the sought-after '79 F-150 made even more desirable by good looks and added ability. So if you want a sharp classic pickup that still has prowess, call today!
