This custom 1968 Ford F-250 is powered by a 460ci big-block V-8
engine sourced from a 1968 Lincoln Continental and paired with its
rebuilt original C6 automatic transmission. The engine features an
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, aluminum intake manifold, mild
camshaft and short-tube headers. Power is delivered to the original
Dana 60 rear end with 3.55 gears. It has dual exhaust, Camper
Special Flexomatic leaf springs and KYB shock absorbers installed
in 2026. Factory power brakes include front discs and rear drums.
The truck retains its unrestored special-order Highland Green
paint, which has received touch-up repairs, and its build tag has
no color code. Exterior equipment includes complete Ranger trim
with a replaced passenger bedside trim piece, reproduction chrome
front and rear bumpers, satin-finished stainless-steel mirrors for
a 1968 fastback mustang from Scott Drake, original 16x6 Ford steel
wheels powder-coated Corinthian white, polished hubcaps and
Michelin all-terrain tires. The original Camper Special telescoping
rear bumper and stainless-steel tow mirrors accompany the truck.
The original interior features factory air conditioning updated in
July 2026, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power steering, an
AM/FM radio with cassette player and two under-seat speakers. The
original AM radio also accompanies the truck. Additional equipment
includes two factory fuel tanks operated by a manual switching
valve, an overhead rear cargo light, original Ford Carlite glass,
rear sliding window, under-seat jack tools and an under-bed spare
tire. The rear auxiliary tank fuel-gauge sending unit is stated to
be inoperative. The truck was originally sold in Los Angeles and
spent its first five decades registered and operated in Southern
California. Documentation accompanies the truck, which is stated to
have had two owners, with the first retaining it for 50 years.
