1978 Ford F150 Supercab 4x4

Description

Complete restoration of a solid AZ truck. 2nd owner, 129,000 miles, approximately 1000 miles on restoration. Truck is very nice, not perfect. Everywhere I drive it people tell me how awesome it is. Truck is all original #s match, except for ¾ ton conversion. Dana 60 installed in rear, 8 lug rotors and larger calipers up front on original Dana 44. New 8 lug, 16" aluminum mods with 33" TA All Terrain Tires. 1st Repaint by Hollie Spack of Auto Body Specialists in Mesa using DeBeers orange paint and Dupont Cream ( original colors). Body has no rust and truck has never been wrecked. Nice sprayed in bedliner and bed is nearly free of dings.

Rancho 9000, 5 way adjustable shocks. Truck drives like a Cadillac. Steeringis tight and the truck absorbs speed bumps like they don't exist.

Trannie and Transfer case were rebuilt by AJ transmission In Mesa. Jerry has built 10 transmissions for me and was one of the best. God rest his soul, miss you.
