classic vintage chrome fomoco f100 351 v8 auto transmission black
1979 Ford F-100 Description
We love a 1979 Ford F-100 Ranger for its classic look and upper-level trim. That only gets better on a pickup with a cool color combo, A/C interior, and proper V8 power.
The Ranger package was created to showcase a very stylish pickup. Full-length trim, wide chrome bumpers, and upgraded polished wheels help to continue that impression nicely today. And don't forget, the distinct grille with square headlights is sought-after because only the last two years in this generation had those. You can see all of this so well because the factory-correct code-A Raven Black makes a nice backdrop for it all. This retains a nice gloss, but it's not perfect...after all, this isn't a trailer queen (it's for towing them!) That's also why you have useful features, like the step bumper with trailer ball, wide towing mirrors, and a bed liner that's ready for Home Depot runs.
The red interior is highly correct and absolutely distinctive against the exterior black. Features like plush newer carpeting, premium wood-like trim, and comfy cloth inserts in the bench seat make this a nice place to spend some time. The essentials have a period-correct feel with the dual-spoke steering wheel, factory gauges, and knob-style AM/FM/cassette stereo. But your favorite classic feature comes when you open the side vent windows, slide the rear glass, and let the breeze flow though the cab like only an old-school truck can. And any time that's not enough, the factory air conditioning is also blowing cold.
Under the hood is Ford's mighty 351 cubic-inch V8. It's the correct displacement for this truck, and it's even believed to be original in this quite stock engine bay. They did upgrade the V8 for added power now that it inhales deeper with a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with authority as headers feed the dual exhaust. The motor has been well-maintained, and that makes for a solid runner. That's especially nice, because it also has easy driving features, like the C6 three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes with discs up front.
Complete with owner's manual, this Ford has the vintage look and strong-running attitude you want in a classic pickup. And since it also has all the features you want, you know this is an irresistible deal. Call today!!!
