Vehicle Description
This 1968 Ford F-100 has farm truck appeal with a touch of hot rod
flair. So you have long bed utility, terrific vintage details, and
plenty of V8 power - all for an affordable price.
We're told that this one was a Kansas farm truck for most of its
life, and it really has that right kind of honest workman attitude.
The factory-correct Lunar Green paint looks to have been updated
later in life, but it has the right aged-in style that many people
may just suspect it's the original application if you say nothing
to them. And the long bed has the useful look you want on a farm
truck. But while it loves to be a true pickup, it also likes to do
it with a touch of flair. The premium Ranger level means
full-length trim, and those ribbed rockers and dual exhaust tips
also have a sporty appeal. Those upgraded 16-inch wheels add some
extra polish without looking out of place on this classic.
The interior continues the very honest and very vintage style. So
while there are some people who may use the value price to reinvest
in updates and upgrades, there are also many of us who are excited
to see the premium two-tone upholstery with bright trim that comes
on a Ranger. The dash has the right stock look, right down to the
working heater and AM radio that's still on display. The steering
wheel has a great classic feeling, and it gives you a clear view to
the full gauge package.
This was born a 360 cubic-inch V8 truck, and while it still has
that desirable displacement, you can tell there has been a later
investment in this powerhouse. It's well-dressed in blue block,
matching valve covers, and an Edelbrock air grabber. Plus, there's
added pep from Edelbrock AVS2 four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock
aluminum intake, and headers feeding the dual exhaust. The C6
three-speed automatic transmission feeds a 9-inch rear for a stout
setup. And while this truck likes you to feel the road, it also has
modern tires for better all-around grip.
Complete with factory buildsheet, this is the ideal classic that's
as useful as it is affordable, and that makes this Ford one heck of
a deal. Call now!
