American iron in its most capable form, this 1979 Ford F-250 XLT
wears a bold red finish that leaves zero doubt about its dominant
presence on the road. Silver decals add definition to the
paintwork, emphasizing the truck's hard-working character. The long
bed layout can handle lumber, tools, and equipment with room to
spare. An upgraded trailer hitch and rear sway bar tell you this
F-250 was built to tow without flinching. Those 16-inch wheels with
265/75R16 tires give substantial ground clearance and load-carrying
ability. The included small toolbox adds everyday utility for
keeping essential gear within reach.
The black vinyl interior keeps things straightforward and durable -
exactly what you want when work gets dirty. The bench seat gives
you elbow room while maintaining the tough-as-nails vibe throughout
the cabin. Large, clear gauges provide critical information at a
glance, with the added bonus of an aftermarket tach on the steering
column for monitoring engine RPM during heavy pulls. Air
conditioning keeps summer jobs manageable, while the Kenwood CD
player supplies the soundtrack for long hauls. The column-mounted
shifter leaves the floor space open for tools, gear, or extra
passengers.
The 460 V8 big block provides massive displacement when you need it
most. This truck moves with substantial force thanks to the
factory-style Holley 4-barrel carburetor feeding the big V8. The C6
3-speed automatic transmission takes the power without complaint
and puts it to work through the 3.54 Dana 60 rear end - giving you
the torque multiplication for towing and hauling that made these
trucks famous. Twin I-Beam front suspension works with leaf springs
and shocks in the rear to maintain stability even under load. Power
disc brakes up front provide effective stopping ability, while
power steering reduces effort when maneuvering this substantial
truck through tight spaces.
