Vehicle Description
This tidy 1969 Ford F-250 Camper Special pickup gets things right
where it matters: a nice-sounding V8 engine, plenty of useful
features, and a vintage interior that still gives you cold-blowing
air conditioning. So with classic pickups being red-hot right now,
this is a great way to look cool while getting your work done.
Looking at the door tag, you'll see this truck is wearing the
correct code Lunar Green. In fact, it's even suspected of being the
original application. Even if it isn't, you're going to have a hard
time convincing people it's not factory. After all, the patina has
that ideal look of being weather from decades of true work. But
that's also a clean and straight style to the sheet metal that says
this one has been well respected. It's even on an actual mileage
title! This has a terrific classic look with the stock wheel
covers, a chrome front bumper, and the Ranger's premium trim
looking like an unbroken line running down the sides. The F-250
came standard with the longer wheelbase and larger eight-foot long
bed. So when it's time to get to work, this truck is up for doing
more. Also speaking of work, we bet you noticed the Camper Special
badges on the fenders. This adds features such as a beefier
suspension, extra wiring harness, and larger Western mirrors. But
where this distinctive option package really adds value is its
sought-after status in the pickup community today.
While there's a well-earned patina on the outside, the interior has
plenty of updates. But that might not be what you first see. They
took extra time to make sure this continues to look and feel
vintage. For example, the seats have the classic premium bench
style with textured inserts and insignia trim in the seatbacks. But
this is a fresher cover and beneath it is newer padding to really
keep you comfortable. And while the under-dash air conditioning
unit looks like the classic-style dealer add-on it actually has a
newer compressor and blows nice and cold with modern R134a
refrigerant. Classic gauges, an artful factory steering wheel,
smooth wood-like trim, and working dome light are all part of a
well-done stock style. Even the upgraded AM/FM radio with cassette
doesn't get too modern to take away from the classic
atmosphere.
We've already hinted that this Ford was built to take on the big
jobs, and now look under the hood for more proof. That's the big
blue oval's 360 cubic-inch V8. This was the largest motor offered
in its era, and the trim tag tells us this was born with this
displacement. This motor starts easily with the feeling of a
well-respected feeling, and it has a nice burble from twin
tailpipes. Power steering, power brakes, front discs, and the C6
three-speed automatic transmission are nice to make work or play
easier.
There is a long-lasting and well-respected look to this whole
truck. It's the kind of honored robustness that we bet people will
take one look at and start telling tales of their war hero
grandfather. It's just that kind of well-earned attractiveness
that's irresistible if you're a real truck person. Call
