For Sale: 1977 Ford F100 in Rogers, Minnesota

This 1977 Ford F-100 Ranger XLT Pickup is a gorgeous restored shortbed pickup truck, with southern history, fantastic options and is ready to cruise! Few vehicles defined the spirit of 1970s America quite like the Ford F-Series pickup truck. Dependable, capable, and unmistakably American, the F-Series had already established itself as the best-selling vehicle line in the United States - a reign that continues uninterrupted to this day. The 1977 Ford F100 Ranger XLT represents one of the finest expressions of that legacy, arriving at the peak of what many enthusiasts consider the golden age of the classic American pickup truck. The 1977 F100 was part of Ford's sixth-generation F-Series, introduced for 1973 and representing the most significant redesign in the nameplate's history. Larger, stronger, and more refined than any F-Series before it, the sixth-generation trucks delivered comfort and capability that had never been associated with American pickups. Ford widened the cab, improved the chassis, and introduced interior refinement that began transforming the American pickup from purely utilitarian workhorse to capable everyday transportation. Within the F100 lineup, the Ranger XLT represented the pinnacle of comfort and refinement. At a time when most pickups were spartan working vehicles, the Ranger XLT arrived with woodgrain interior trim, plush seating, upgraded carpeting, and a host of convenience features that set it apart from lesser trim levels. It was a truck that worked as hard as any F100 but pampered its driver in the process - Ford's vision for what the American pickup could become. For years, classic F-Series pickups flew quietly under the radar of the collector car market while muscle cars commanded the spotlight. That era is firmly over. Today, clean and well-preserved examples of 1970s Ford F-Series trucks - particularly well-optioned Ranger XLT models - are among the most sought-after classics in the hobby, prized for their versatility, timeless styling, and the powerful sense of American nostalgia they carry. The clean, uncluttered lines of the sixth-generation F-Series have aged remarkably well, giving these trucks a purposeful appearance that looks as good on the road today as it did rolling off the assembly line nearly five decades ago. Powering this particular '77 Ranger XLT is an upgraded 400 cubic inch V8 engine fed by a single 2 barrel carburetor. Anybody can easily drive and enjoy this luxurious Half-Ton Pickup Truck since the Ford V8 is backed by a C6 Automatic transmission. Exhaust exits this Ford F-100's upgraded powerplant via a dual exhaust setup that features a pair of glasspack-style mufflers, producing a terrific rumble cruising down the road. This 1977 Ford Ranger XLT comes absolutely loaded with options! With power front disc brakes, bringing this half-ton pickup truck to a complete stop is a total breeze and the overall driving experience is much improved. Power steering is another wonderful feature on this '77 Ford Pickup since it makes maneuvering into a tight parking space a one-handed operation. Further aiding parking and lane-change efforts are dual chrome outside adjustable mirrors that give you more visibility. The steel shortbed pickup box sports a custom upholstered liner that will easily haul your cooler and chairs to the local car show; and, its covered by an accessory hard tonneau cover trimmed with chrome rails and a Ford emblem for added pizzaz. Further elevating the exterior look of this Styleside pickup truck is the optional special upper and lower body side moldings. Riding on a set chrome American Racing wheels, each mounted with a Cooper Discoverer RTX 235/75R15 radial tire, this '77 Ford F100 Ranger has a fantastic customized look and an even better ride. The exterior of this F-100 XLT pickup has been refinished in Castillo Red paint that completes the exterior look of this awesome 70s truck. The interior of this 1977 Ford F-100 Ranger XLT Pickup Truck is sublime! The bench seat has just been restored using Red upholstery. The matching red upholstered door panels, black carpeting, and woodgrain-trimmed dash and steering wheel further add to the luxurious look and feel of this classic Ford pickup while retaining a wonderful stock appearance. Like the exterior and drivetrain, the interior is also incredibly well optioned. With factory air conditioning, outfitted with modern components, you'll be able to stay cool even on the hottest summer days and a fairly rare option to see on a classic pickup truck. Additionally, if you just wanted to enjoy a breath of fresh air, you can open the back window of the cab of this Ford truck which comes outfitted with the optional Sliding Rear Window. The instrument cluster comes equipped with a 100 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, alternator gauge, oil pressure gauge and fuel gauge. The dash is finished off with various controls including HVAC and lighting, a locking glovebox, and a Pioneer AM/FM/CD/AUX entertainment system so that you can listen to all of your tunes while cruising down the road.
