1979 Ford F-250 Ranger Additional Info:
With its slick paint, freshly rebuilt V8, custom A/C interior, and much more, this 1979 Ford F-250 Ranger is exactly what we all want in a vintage pickup. So dig deep into all the features, because this one keeps impressing you more the longer you look at it. The red paint seems like the perfect color for an attention-grabber like this one. There was a significant investment in restoring this truck in 2017, and that included getting the paint to look this good. The correct Candyapple Red now has an attractive clearcoat luster to really make this a memorable pickup. These Fords are quite popular because they combine the square-jawed tough appeal with some nice brightwork. That's why the mirror-like appearance of chrome bumpers and grille help complement the glossy paint, especially out in the sunshine. Plus, the complete Ranger side trim, wide towing mirrors, and upgraded 17-inch polished ProComp alloys really lets you know this is a shining star. But as cool at the presentation is, this pickup still knows how to get to work. After all, the F-250 name means a serious upgrade in power, and the clearance lights on top of the cab lets everyone know you mean business. And this longbed pickup has a nice red textured liner paint, so you can haul home your weekend chores on Saturday and still be ready to show off this truck on Sunday. Open the door and you'll again see even more great investments. The red theme continues, and it feels absolutely premium with velour seats, plush carpeting, taut headliner, and even custom inserts in the door panels. Plus, the Ranger trim means some nice wood-like inserts on the dash. While this all looks quite vintage and correct, there are also some nice subtle upgrades. This includes integrated cup holders and a retro-style AM/FM stereo with digital tuner. But your favorite upgrade will be the R134a air conditioning. After all, we know you'll want to use the side vent window and slide open the rear glass for those old-school truck breezes. And with ice-cold A/C, you can keep doing this long into the summer season. While the Ford's red is bold, an even bolder piece is the big blue block of the 400 cubic-inch V8 in the engine bay. This big displacement motor was professionally rebuilt during the restoration, and today it has less than 1,000 miles on it since completion. So it fires up nicely, and makes a terrific sound out of the new dual exhaust. Not only is this truck powerful, but it's also built to be comfortable. It has Ford's twin I-beam front suspension, power steering, a three-speed automatic transmission, and front disc brakes, so this truck can maintain its manners the road. Plus, the dual fuel tanks mean it's ready for the long haul. Complete with the owner's manual and build receipts there was thousands $$$$ invested in creating a classic pickup that's bright, powerful, useful, comfortable, and absolutely memorable. So if you want the best of everything, don't miss this F-250. Call today!!!
