1968 Ford F-100 Pickup Truck 390 V8 4 Speed Manual Classic Vintage Collector

Description

You can buy this 1968 Ford F-100 because it's an affordable vintage pickup in a quickly appreciating market. But really we know you've peeked at the A/C interior, four-speed stick shift, and performance-built 390 V8 under the hood and realized how much fun you can have with this ultimate sleeper. This truck has great lines and terrific sheetmetal that comes from the right investments. The factory-correct Lunar Green was expertly re-applied. There is a hint of workman attitude... on the surface, so people's first impression can easily be a terrific survivor (but the undercarriage photos really show you the full picture of the cleanliness and care that has gone into this classic pickup.) This clean and coordinated attitude extends to the silver bumpers that match the grille and F-O-R-D lettering on the tailgate. And not only does the red pinstriping coordinate with the two-piece wheels, but this also hints at some of the power within. The exterior green continues on the metal parts of the interior, and now it's joined by nice elements like the cream-colored headliner, visors, and bench seat. But this is more than just a good 'ol honest pickup. After all, cold-blowing air conditioning is an extravagance they didn't have back then. And the Hurst floor shifter and ProTach prominently mounted on the steering column tell you there's something special under the hood. Not only was Ford's 390 cubic-inch V8 the largest offered in this generation F-series, but also you can see there has been plenty of fresh investment in this one to get it looking clean and mean. Ribbed valve covers, shiny air topper, new HEI distributor, and much more give this a nice performance attitude. And it has the power to back this up, too. This big V8 inhales deeply through an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with authority as the headers add even more power while contributing to the rumble of the dual exhaust. Making sure that you have the most control over these power upgrades is a four-speed manual transmission. Plus, you have power brakes, Ford's twin I-beam front suspension, and wide BF Goodrich T/As. This one is a true classic sleeper pickup that you can love every day. It doesn't even skimp on the vintage touches, including its owner's manual. Don't miss this one, call today!
