Beautiful 1978 Ford F-250 Ranger Lariat Super Cab Camper Special Welcome and thanks for looking. Background Assembled in the Kansas City, MO Ford plant in June of 1978, a custom order for the Seattle, WA district market. I purchased the vehicle from the original owner's family, who were from the Washington/Oregon area, in December 2012 and it was my daily driver until November 2016. I moved from WA to TX in 2015 and continued to drive the truck daily until my work commute increased significantly and so I purchased a new car and that is why I am selling this truck.
