Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is proud to present this 2001
Ford F150 Lightning. This unit is #4012 of 6381 produced in 2001
and comes with its SVT letters and plaque. Introduced in 1993, the
1st gen Lightning was produced for just 3 model years until 1995.
For those who might be unaware, the Ford SVT Lightning is a
high-performance version of the F-150, which Ford's Special Vehicle
Team (SVT) put their magic touch on. Intended as a competitor for
the Chevrolet 454SS, the SVT Lightning received extensive
modifications to the front and rear suspension and frame, as well
as a serious power bump over mere mortal F-150s. After a brief
hiatus, Ford released its second generation of the SVT Lightning
for the 1999 model year. This new generation was powered by a
supercharged version of Ford's potent 5.4L V8 that produced 360 hp
and was mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission from the F-150.
The truck was factory-equipped with SVT-tuned dampers and springs
as well as front and rear stabilizer bars. Stopping power is
provided by power four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes. The cab
features a 60/40 split bench seat upholstered in Medium Graphite
Alcantara with black leather inserts, and embroidered SVT logos
accent the backrests. Amenities include air conditioning, aluminum
wheels, cruise control, driver and passenger airbags,
power-adjustable driver's seat with lumbar support, power locks,
power steering, power windows, high performance radial tires,
overhead storage compartments, and a cassette stereo with a
six-disc CD changer. The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel
frames a white-dial 140-mph speedometer, a 6k-rpm tachometer and
auxiliary gauges that include a boost gauge, coolant temperature,
oil pressure and fuel level. This bad boy has been treated to an
upgraded 5.4L V8, which features JE Pistons and Rings, Scat
connecting rods, ARP 2000 hardware, Patriot heads and cams (with
adjustable cam gears), had its mid-intake plumbed for a Nitrous
Express NOS system (but, for the nervous out there, according to
the owner, it's never been used), a new lower pulley with
interchangeable rings, 60 lb/hr injectors, Caltrac traction bars,
Phantom gauges, SCT 2400 MAF (with SCT tuner), PSP Cold Air Intake,
Kooks long tube headers, high flow catalytic convertors, and dual
exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers. This Lightning is a beast - don't
let someone else beat you to it!
