1979 Ford F-150 Ranger XLT Description

This is a classic 4x4 for true truck people. It's a 1979 Ford F-150 Ranger XLT with rare original details, the right upgrades, and correct V8 power. So look over the features on this one, because if you love trucks, this one will make your mouth water.
Dressed in its factory-correct shade of black, this has a high-gloss finish that's attractive even before you add in the premium Ranger XLT trim. This top-level package meant you get plenty of added bright work with rocker moldings, wheel arch accents, an ornate tailgate, and stainless body line moldings that follow the profile's sheet metal crease. And because this pickup has been so well cared for all its life, these features look crisp against the straight sheet metal. But a truck like this is more than just presentation. You have the extra ability that comes with a long bed, and so there is liner paint protecting it now. Plus, the long bed also means this is one of the few that could receive the rare locking storage box option that was integrated behind the passenger side door. Plus, the lifted stance, side steps, and Pacer wheels add to both the form and the function of this classic pickup.
Open the door to a nicely preserved interior. The black bench seat has textured gray inserts to make it comfortable for where you sit, and Ranger-level premium wood appearance is on the door panels, dash, and dual-spoke steering wheel. You even have rare features for this time like cruise control and an AM/FM/cassette stereo. But what we all love most on a classic pickup is when we see a sliding rear window. When combined with the side vent window, it creates a breeze through the cab that really embodies classic motoring.
This was born with a 351 cubic-inch V8, and there is still a correct-displacement motor under the hood. This gives the truck the kind of low-end power that's always welcomed on a tall four-wheel drive pickup. In fact, combine this stance with the two speed 4x4 transfer case and BF Goodrich All-Terrain tires, and you know the fun doesn't end when the pavement does. Because this also features a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes, it's an easy any-time, any-place driver. But there's more to this truck's story. Between the upgraded aluminum radiator, modern trailer hitch, and full trailer electric plug, this classic F-150 is quite capable of towing all the best toys, too.
Cool classic style meets plenty of utility in this vintage pickup. Since you can get it all for far less than the price of a new 4x4, you know this is one hot deal. Call now!
