You might have just thought this 1978 Ford F-100 Stepside was a
great value with a cool paint job on a well-priced truck. But as
you dig into the full-color package, solid V8 power, and so much
more, you realize this is a truly irresistible buy.
The bold yellow color and deleted badging set a sporty tone for
this truck. The yellow even matches the aerodynamic tonneau cover
that's over the classic wood bed floor. It all makes for a
stand-out package that is also unmistakably built to have fun. It's
a driver's truck with a road-ready presentation. Plus, we bet you
noticed the upgrade to classic Cragar SS wheels. They are part of
an intimidating stance that comes from larger rear tires and a
forward-leaning look. But the best sporty piece has to be the extra
curves you get on the stepside bed. It's a style we don't see too
often on F-100s of this year, and so that just adds to this truck's
distinction.
The bold yellow continues inside on the door tops, dash, and
steering column. It's joined by a tasteful back and gray for a
stylish appearance. Just like the exterior, the interior is
currently about being a sports truck real driver. So you have
upgrades like racing seatbelts, a Grant GT sports steering wheel,
and a proper oil pressure gauge. And in the lower center, you have
a good pairing of the Sunpro tach and a B&M floor shifter.
Under the hood is the mighty 351 cubic-inch V8. It inhales deeply
with a Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, and headers let it exhale
with added power and authority into the dual exhaust. There are
also nice newer supporting components like the battery, Ford Racing
plug wires, and radiator. It's a solid power package, and it's also
made to be an easy cruiser with a C6 three-speed automatic
transmission, power steering, power brakes, and front disc
brakes.
There's a lot of fun to be had in a vibrant stepside classic like
this. The value price leaves room in your budget to continue this
truck's custom style by adding your own personal flair. You can
restore the front ghost flames, add new tires, recondition the
factory A/C, add custom upholstery, or give the motor a
service/tune-up for added power. So it's a unique presentation for
today and a ton of potential for tomorrow. That makes for a great
classic you can really make your own. Call today!!!
