Vehicle Description
Under the hood sits a 400 cubic inch V8, a member of Ford's 335 series big block family that earned a reputation for stump pulling torque and bulletproof durability. Topped with an Edelbrock aluminum intake, Holley 4 barrel carburetor, HEI distributor, and long tube headers, this powerplant breathes deep and responds with authority. Ford Motorsports valve covers and matching air cleaner add the right amount of attitude when you lift the hood. Rowing through a 4 speed manual with a floor shifter, this F 150 keeps the driving experience raw and mechanical just the way a classic truck should.
The Ranger XLT trim was the top shelf package in its day, bringing comfort and style to the job site. Inside, you are greeted by a Brown vinyl bench seat, billet steering wheel, and an aftermarket sound system with 6x9 speakers tucked behind the seat. Air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes make this truck easy to live with whether you are cruising Main Street or heading out to a local show. The sliding rear window adds that unmistakable period correct cool factor.
Rolling on 16 inch American Racing wheels wrapped in aggressive 285 75R16 tires, this short bed Ford has the right muscle truck posture. A fully rebuilt brake system, steering stabilizer, and spray in bedliner ensure it is as functional as it is sharp. The 1979 F 150 has become increasingly collectible, especially in short bed Ranger XLT form with V8 power and a manual transmission. This is the kind of honest, square jawed Ford that reminds you why these trucks built a legacy that still dominates the road today.
