Here's a truck that is ready for some on-road intimidation and
off-road adventure. With a 3-inch lift and 33-inch tires, this 1978
Ford F-150 4x4 long bed carries a serious attitude. The exterior
brown paint still has a deep gloss, while the chrome bumpers and
bright trim shine strongly. This truck is versatile-capable of
everyday hard work, four-wheel driving, or even serving as a daily
driver thanks to its surprisingly calm manners around town. The bed
is in solid condition and features a heavy-duty UWS toolbox at the
front, perfect for securing important cargo.
The interior is tan and kept simple, just as a truck like this
should be. The carpets are clean and protected by heavy-duty floor
mats. The door panels, dashboard, and dash pad are all in good
condition. It retains its original steering wheel and gauge
cluster, with three additional aftermarket gauges mounted neatly
under the dash: Oil, Volt, and Water. For audio, a Pioneer head
unit provides AM/FM/AUX/CD with Bluetooth capabilities. Shifting
duties are handled by the column shifter, while the
four-wheel-drive shifter is floor-mounted. The bench seat sports a
new matching cover, giving the cabin a fresh, cohesive look.
Under the hood, everything appears well-maintained. Power comes
from a Ford Blue-painted 429 cubic-inch V8 equipped with Ford
aluminum valve covers, a Weiand intake, and an Edelbrock 4-barrel
carburetor. It's paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission
sending power to a 9-inch Ford rear axle with 3.50 gears. The
suspension consists of front coil springs with shocks and rear leaf
springs with shocks. The truck rides on 33x12.50R15LT tires mounted
on sharp-looking 15-inch wheels. Stopping power comes from power
front disc brakes and power rear drums. The dual exhaust system is
mostly stock but upgraded with an aftermarket muffler that gives it
a good, throaty sound.
