1973 Ford F-100 Ranger

Description

In the vintage truck world, there's often the choice of form OR function, but this 1973 Ford F-100 Ranger offers both. You get modern shiny paint and plenty of other new upgrades that combines with a rebuilt 390 V8 and spray-in bedliner to give you an affordable classic that has style and substance.

This truck is a well assembled package. It starts with a nice application of aqua blue that shows what happens when you invest in a modern clearcoat paint. When sunshine hits this pickup, it has a radiant effect off the deep luster that makes you proud to own this classic. You can also tell there has been investments in the bumpers to keep the chrome just as shiny. And those large 22-inch Boss Motorsports wheels are another great touch that brings modern attraction. And as you look at the grille, and realize the satin finish matches that on the alloys, you start to realize this pickup is the product of a very thoughtful planning. Even the matte black stripe on the hood nicely coordinates with the F-O-R-D lettering in the rear. It also matches the spray-in bedliner, so that this very functional piece can still be a part of the overall thoughtful design.

Inside is a handsome and correct black interior. The bench combines durable vinyl with comfortable cloth for where you sit, so it couldn't be a nicer combo. The exterior blue returns on the door panels and dash, so this whole pickup was painted properly during the respray. But more than just look great, you're going to enjoy upgrades like the AM/FM/CD stereo w/USB input, upgraded speaker system, and sporty Grant GT steering wheel. And you can also feel the extra quality in this truck simply by the way the doors close with authority and the newer weather-stripping really seals this classic.

But the best work in this pickup was reserved for under the hood. You'll love showing off the 390 cubic-inch V8 with its big blue block, bright air topper, and Cobra fined valve covers. But this one also has some nice substance. It was rebuilt a few years ago, and now includes upgrades such as an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and Dougs long tube headers - all of which gives this a throaty rumble out of the dual exhaust. The full package truly makes this a muscle machine, but there is more here than just pure power. It feels nice on the road thanks to the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and Ford's twin I-beam front suspension. Plus, you have the added roadholding of front disc brakes and grippy low profile tires at all four corners.

Complete with build receipts, so you can go over all the expensive and extensive work, this is a unique F-100 with plenty of power and usability. A great vintage package like this won't stay with us long at this affordable price. Call today!!!
