390 big block solid f100 value long classic vintage v8 records manual truck 1969
1969 Ford F-100 Longbed Description
Plenty of V8 power, serious long bed utility, and a rock-bottom price means this 1969 Ford F-100 is the two-tone classic pickup that delivers a ton of value. This Ford has that cool old-school look. It's a factory-correct two-tone Wimbledon White and Marlin Blue, and it was resprayed a while ago. The result is a nice gloss and shine, but not so pristine that people would ever accuse you of having a trailer queen. The same goes for the bright bumpers and up-market Range trim. They even added a nice set of 15-inch Pacer polished alloys for added flair. But the biggest appeal of this truck is its utility. The long wheel base with long bed means you're only making one trip to Home Depot before a project, and the proper trailer hitch means the toys don't have to stay at home. Who knew you could have this much usefulness in a classic? Inside this one really embraces its workman attitude. It's a highly original interior with basic repairs along the way - almost like what you'd see in a barn find - even the blanket-style seat cover is truly old-school truck authentic. This is not yet ready for those who want a show truck, but there is an undeniable charm to the originality seen here. Plus, they even added a retro-style AM/FM stereo with digital tuner, so that there's the right driving tunes without jeopardizing this unique atmosphere. Under the hood is a 390 cubic-inch V8 that's just as honest as the rest of this pickup. There's been good maintenance, so it fires up readily, and it makes a nice low-level rumble out of the dual exhaust. This is a historically stout and powerful motor, which really goes to the heart of this truck's appeal. After all, you want a proper V8 powerplant when utilizing the big bed, trailer hitch, or both. And no matter if you're using this for chores of just pleasure driving, the control of the three-speed manual transmission is always welcomed. Complete with maintenance records, this is the ideal classic for someone who want something entry level, something useful, and/or a fine driver to restore as time goes on. It's as useful as it is affordable, and that makes this Ford one heck of a deal. Call today!!!
