Classic 4x4 is proud to present this exceptional custom-built and modified 1975 Ford F-250 Ranger 4x4 Power Stroke.
Blending vintage style with modern capability, this one-of-a-kind build features the original 1975 F-250 patina body mounted on a 1997 F-350 chassis powered by a legendary 7.3L V8 Power Stroke turbo diesel four-wheel-drive powertrain.
This distinctive truck was professionally built by Mintonyes Conversions and Hodson Motors, combining the heritage aesthetic of the “Dentside” F-250 with the strength and reliability of a modern “OBS” F-350.
Finished in its original two-tone Medium Green patina, the truck is complemented by a custom upholstered color-coordinated interior in green, gray, and black. It offers comfort and convenience with a suite of modern upgrades.
Key Features:
History:
Known among enthusiasts as the “Dentside” generation, the sixth-generation F-Series (1973–1979) is celebrated for its clean lines and rugged styling. This 1975 Ford F-250 was built on May 20, 1975, at the San Jose, California, plant and sold new on September 11, 1975, at Wilson Motors in Corvallis, Oregon. Documented history shows ownership in Oregon, Nevada, and California.
The restoration and modifications were completed in 2024 by Mintonyes Conversions of Junction City, OR, and Hodson Motors of Las Vegas, NV. The truck entered the current owner’s collection in December 2024 and is currently located in Los Angeles, California. It has a clean and clear California title in the current owner’s name. The replacement odometer shows 721 miles since the restoration; true mileage is unknown.
There are no known mechanical, electrical, or systems deficiencies. Aside from the original preserved patina, there are no known major cosmetic or structural issues.
Exterior:

The body was polished and buffed to highlight its character, while the hood was replaced and painted to blend seamlessly with the original finish. An AcustiHood hoodliner was also installed.
