This is a fully loaded
99.9 RUSTFREE 1978 F250 3/4ton 4x4, with
the premium "Ranger XLT" trim package, and heavy duty "Camper Special"
package. The Ranger XLT package gave you the pretty stuff, and Camper
Special package gave you the heavy duty stuff, as well as extra coolers and
a rear anti-sway bar. This 4x4 was built in California
and has spent it's entire life out there. This truck
features a rebuilt 460 that runs strong and smooth, & rebuilt C6 automatic
that shifts nice and snappy. It also has working A/C (converted to
134A), PS, PDB, Cruise, Tilt, int. wipers, factory chrome tie down hooks,
locking hood, etc. It also has the very rare and desirable cab lights.
The interior is nice, and hasn't been cut up. The suspension is tight.
The shocks and exhaust are ok as well. The 4x4 system works fine. It
also has brand new stock size radial
tires. The body
is straight for it's age. Even the bed floor is nice. This truck
isn't a beat abused ranch truck. Looks like the front bumper got some
use. There are only two spots that have rust in the entire body, above
the right rear wheel, and the outer rear door corner on the drivers side.
Both are only in the outer structure with no signs on the back side.
These spots are very minor and common even on CA trucks, but I just want to
be absolutely clear. See pictures at the end of the list.
All these old 4x4's are
getting tougher for me to find. On my last trip to CA, I went with the
specific purpose of buying Fords and this was the only Ford I found worth
buying. I looked at lots of junk.
