1978 Ford F-100 Custom

Description

Time for some honest truck adventures with this 1978 Ford F-100. It has a great classic style, useful features, V8 power, and above all, an affordable price.

This generation Ford F-Series is one of the most iconic tough trucks out there, and the 1978 models are particularly desirable because they were the debut for the distinct front end that only lasted two years. This was born a Wimbledon White pickup, which is arguably the most attractive classic Ford color. It was updated later in life, but it doesn't take away from the driver-ready feeling. The attraction is also in the details, like the full orange/brown pinstriping. And the upgraded chrome on the wheel well trim joins the front bumper for a good shine you want on a classic American. Plus, there's plenty of function in this classic. You have wide tow mirrors and a hitch ball on the rear step bumper. And the back paint in the bed makes it easy to make a Home Depot run in this classic pickup.

The interior keeps the vintage style going in a clean and comfortable atmosphere. The brown on the door panels and dash have that 1970s earthtone vibe. The seat vinyl coordinates with that, too, and it also has comfy velour inserts for where you sit. There are well integrated upgrades. For example, the AM/FM radio still has the classic tuner look, but there's now an aux input if you want to plug in your iPod. And the steering wheel is a grippy sports piece that still has a vintage style.

The engine bay is attractive without being flashy. You have clean white inner fenders, and even the jack is still mounted inside. The motor and air grabber have fresher paint to stand out from the darkness, and the polished valve covers add the right flair. And within this style is the substance of Ford's 302 cubic-inch V8. It's a nice-running motor that makes a sweet tune out of the newer dual exhaust. So it's a package that's ready to hit the road thanks to easy driving features like the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, front discs brakes, and a deep tread on the Uniroyal tires.

Complete with owner's manual, this F-100 has the right look for a fun classic that's ready for work or play. It has a great gone-tomorrow price, and so that's why you need to call today!
