HELLO THIS IS A 1978 FORD F-150 RANGER XLT 4X4 STEPSIDE SHORTBED, FACTORY BLACK ON BLACK . 460 BIG BLOCK C6 AUTO 6 INCH LIFT ON 35S. ALSO HAS THE QUAD SHOCKS FROM THE FACTORY WITCH IS A RARE OPTION AS WELL. ITS GOT THE GOOD GEAR DRIVEN NP 205 TRANSFER CASE, NOT THE CHAIN TYPE. ENGINE IS A 1969 429 BLOCK WITH 460 CRANK AND RODS, HAS A LOWER DECK HEIGHT TO HELP WITH COMPRESSION WHEN RUNNING THE D3 HEADS FOR PUMP GAS. ENGINE NEEDS SOME TLC FROM SITTING, ITS RUNNING RICH BUT STARTS RIGHT UP WITH GOOD POWER AND GOOD OIL PRESSURE IT HAD A HOLLEY DOUBLE PUMPER ON IT AND I SWITCHED IT TO A EDELBROCK, THAT MIGHT BE THE REASON FOR BEING RICH, I JUST HAVE'NT MESSED WITH IT. THE TRUCK WAS REDONE ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO OR SO BY PREVIOUS OWNER, THEY HAD IT IN THE MOUNTAIN HOME 4X4 TRAILS CLUB. THEY DROVE IT FOR A WHILE TILL GAS WENT UP THEN IT JUST SAT. HAS LOTS OF POWER TRANNY WORKS GREAT AND DRIVE TRAIN. VERY COOL AND RARE 4X4. IT HAS THE 4 KC LIGHTS AND CHROME ROLL BAR A ALPINE CASSEtTE DECK. IT WAS BUILT JUST LIKE WHAT WAS POPULAR IN THE 80S. REMINDS OF THOSE OLD STOMPER TRUCKS WHEN I WAS KID. THIS WAS GOING TO BE MY PERSONAL TOY PROJECT TRUCK, THIS TRUCK IS SO COOL. TRUCK HAS A GREAT BODY FRAME AND UNDERNEATH LOOK GREAT AND A VERY SOLID TRUCK, THE Only SPOT OF RUST IS THAT TYPICAL AREA IN LOWER FRONT OF THE REAR FENDERS. A SUPER EASY FIX AND THATS IT. HAS GOOD TIRES WITH ABOUT 3/4 TREAD. I HAD THE ORIGINAL BLACK SANDED OFF AND SEALED IN 6 COATS OF FLAT BLACK BODY SEALER TO SEAL OUT THE ELEMENTS, LOOKS MEAN. HAS A BRAND NEW WINDSHIELD. INTERIOR NEEDS SOME TLC. THE BENCH NEEDS REDONE DASH HAS A COUPLE CRACKS CARPET IS GOOD BUT OLD AND THE DOOR RUBBER IS OLD AND COULD USE SOME FRESH STUFF. GRILL IS GOOD LIKE NEW, FRONT BUMPER HAS A BEND IN IT FROM PULLING OUT SOME ONE, BUT NOT BAD. THE WOOD BED NEEDS REDONE BUT ITS ALL THERE, I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT, I WAS GOING TO USE SOME BEAUTIFUL WALNUT BUT ITS NOT GONNA HAPPEN NOW. ALL IN ALL NOT A TRAILER QUEEN YET BUT A VERY COOL AND MEAN MACHINE. THE TITLE IS A CLEAR IDAHO TITLE THAT IS IN THE PREVIOUS OWNERS NAME. I NEVER REGISTERED IT. SO THE TITLE IS READY FOR YOUR NAME AND TO BE DATED AS WELL AS BILL OF SALE. WILL IT DRIVE ACROSS THE USA? I HAVE NO IDEA I DONT KNOW A WHOLE LOT ABOUT IT. BESIDES ITS A BUILT 460 AND IT DOES LIKE GAS, IT WOULD BE MORE PRACTICAL TO TRAILER IT. I WOULD'NT WANT TO PUT WEAR AND TEAR ON IT ANYHOW, BUT IT DID DRIVE ALL OVER IDAHO. THIS IS A GREAT RARE TRUCK AND A GREAT INVESTMENT. I PAID A PRETTY PENNY FOR IT SO ITS NOT SOME FARM TRUCK THATS BEEN SITTING IN A FIELD. HATE TO LET IT GO BUT JUST GOT DIVORCED AND WE ALL NO HOW THAT GOES. NO RESERVE AUCTION MUST SELL TO HIGHEST BIDDER. PERIOD SO BID TO OWN IT. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE FUNDS AVAILABLE, I ALWAYS PAY IN TIMELY MANNER SO I EXPECT THE SAME. FULL PAYMENT DUE WITHIN 5 BUSINESS DAYS THATS PLENTY OF TIME IF YOUR A SERIOUS BUYER, WIRE TRANSFER, OR CASHIERS CHECK, OR CASH, BUT MUST CLEAR BEFORE TITLE AND VEHICLE CAN BE RELEASED. A NON REFUNDABLE 500.00 DEPOSIT IS DUE WITHIN 48 HRS UNLESS SOMETHING ELSE IS WORKED OUT WITH ME. YOU CAN PAY PAYPAL BUT YOU HAFT TO PAY FOR THE TRANSFER FEE LIKE 4% THATS UP TO YOU THOUGH. I WILL NEXT DAY AIR WITH TRACKING THE TITLE AND BILL OF SALE ONCE PAYMENT IS RECEIVED. THIS WAY YOU CAN TRACK YOUR TITLE RIGHT TO YOUR FRONT DOOR AND EVERYTHING GOES SMOOTH. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR TRANSPORT, BUT I WILL HELP WITH WHAT I CAN. ITS EASY THEY JUST TAKE YOUR INFO AND YOU SET UP A PICKUP DATE AND THEY CALL ME WHEN THEY ARE A COUPLE HOURS OUT. IVE SOLD DOZENS CARS THIS WAY AND ITS EASY, BUT IT DOES PAY TO SHOP AROUND FOR QUOTES. ILL CONTACT YOU AFTER AUCTION END JUST TO TOUCH BASE. EMAIL IF THERE ARE ANY ?????? THANKS AND GOOD LUCK ITS A COOL MACHINE SOMEONE WILL BE SUPER HAPPY.
