  1978 FORD F-250 RANGER XLT HEAVY DUTY 2WD 3/4 TON 460ci V8 SUPER NICE & CLEAN TRUCK! THIS TRUCK WILL MAKE SOMEONE VERY HAPPY! DRIVES LIKE IT WAS NEW! MECHANICALLY IN VERY NICE SHAPE. THE 460 V8 RUNS GREAT! THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS NICE. SMOOTH & VERY SOLID! WE ALWAYS SUGGEST A FRESH TUNEUP & OIL CHANGE BEFORE DRIVING CARS LONG DISTANCES. WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO HELP YOU ARRANGE GETTING ANY PRETRIP PREP WORK DONE AT OUR WHOLESALE COST. FRONT END, GRILL, FRONT BUMPER, ETC. ARE ALL INCREDIBLY NICE & CLEAN. IN FACT THE GRILL & FRONT BUMPER ARE IN SUCH NICE SHAPE THEY ALMOST LOOK BRAND NEW. IN FACT OVERALL ALL THE PANELS & TRIM ON THIS TRUCK IS SUPER STRAIGHT & CLEAN! THE PAINT IS OLD & SHOWS IT, AS YOU WOULD EXPECT ON A 35 YEAR OLD TRUCK, BUT OVERALL THE PAINT JOB LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD STILL BUFF OUT & LOOK GREAT FOR A DAILY DRIVER. REALLY EXCELLENT FOR IT'S AGE! AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, THIS TRUCK IS SUPER SOLID! WE HAVE HAD THIS TRUCK UP ON A HOIST & LOOKED IT OVER THOROUGHLY & IT IS VERY SOLID THROUGHOUT. THE CAB FLOOR, CAB CORNERS, ROCKERS, FENDERS, DOORS, BUMPERS, ETC. ARE ALL VERY NICE & SOLID. HERE ARE THE PARTICULARS: VIN: F25JRCG2168 ODOMETER READING: 65646 ACTUAL??? ALTHOUGH WE BELIEVE, BASED ON THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THIS TRUCK, THE WAY IT DRIVES, THE CONDITION OF THE SEAT, THE HEAL PAD, THE CARPETING, THE PEDALS, THE DOOR PANELS, THE DASH PAD, THE WAY THE DOORS SHUT, THE REST OF THE INTERIOR THAT THE TYPE OF WEAR IT HAS IS MORE LIKELY AGE RELATED THAN ACTUAL WEAR DUE TO USAGE & THAT THE MILES ARE PROBABLY ACTUAL ON THIS ONE, WE HAVE NOT VERIFIED IT. SO, LIKE ALL OF OUR VEHICLES 10 YEARS & OLDER IT IS BEING SOLD AS: TRUE MILES UNKNOWN. SOLD AS: MILES EXEMPT. ALL GLASS IS GOOD. HAS A SET OF HEAVY DUTY CHROME STEEL RIMS WITH A PRETTY MUCH NEW SET OF MATCHING RADIAL TIRES THAT HAVE ABOUT 95%+ TREAD. ONE RIM WILL NEED TO BE RECHROMED, THE OTHER 3 ARE IN NICE SHAPE. OR...IF YOU'D PREFER: WE HAVE LOCATED 2 THAT ARE THE SAME SIZE & MATCHING STYLE THAT HAVE NICE CHROME FOR $100 FOR THE PAIR. COUPLE VERY SMALL DINGS IN THE UPPER BEDSIDES, BUT AS MENTIONED BEFORE BODY IS IN AMAZINGLY NICE SHAPE! THE FACTORY LOCKABLE TOOLBOX IN BED SIDE IS ALSO STRAIGHT & HAS ONLY LIGHT SURFACE CORROSION THAT WOULD ALL COME RIGHT OFF WITH STEEL WOOL. TAILGATE LOOKS LIKE IT IS A REPLACEMENT & IS NOT QUITE AS STRAIGHT AS THE REST OF THE TRUCK. BUT OVERALL IN GREAT SHAPE! THE MISSING TRIM FROM THE TAILGATE IS SITTING IN THE BED. IT IS OVERALL STRAIGHT & COMPLETELY SOLID. PAINT IS WORN OFF IN THE BED, BUT BED FLOOR IS STRAIGHT & SOLID. DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT WAS EVER MISTREATED. THE REAR BUMPER IS ALSO TOTALLY STRAIGHT & SOLID! (YOU CAN SEE WHERE I USED STEEL WOOL ON THE RIGHT SIDE & IT CLEANED RIGHT UP.) BUT IT COULD USE A FRESH COAT OF PAINT. BOTH BEDSIDES ARE NICE & CLEAN! HAS TWIN FACTORY FUEL TANKS. INTERIOR: FACTORY GAUGE PACKAGE. GAUGES ARE IN VERY NICE SHAPE. HAS AFTERMARKET DASH LIGHTS THAT WORK QUITE WELL, BUT IF YOU WANT TO RESTORE IT TO ORIGINAL, YOU WOULD WANT TO REPLACE THEM. FACTORY AIR CONDITIONED TRUCK, BUT THE A/C COMPRESSOR IS MISSING & WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED IF YOU WANTED TO GET THE A/C WORKING AGAIN. HAS THE FACTORY CRUISE CONTROL OPTION AS WELL. IT IS TIME TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL CARPETING. IT IS FADED & TORN ON THE SIDES. BUT IS IN REMARKABLY GOOD SHAPE FOR BEING A THIRD OF A CENTURY OLD. IF THE BUYER WOULD LIKE, WE CAN GET NEW CARPETING & HAVE IT PROFESSIONALLY INSTALLED FOR OUR WHOLESALE COST. SEAT HAS A HOLE ON THE BOTTOM CUSHION ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. OTHERWISE IT IS STILL FIRM & COMFORTABLE. LOOKS REALLY GREAT FOR BEING 35 YEARS OLD! WE CAN ALSO HELP BY ARRANGING TO HAVE THE UPHOLSTERY WORK DONE AT OUT WHOLESALE COST. HEADLINER & VISORS LOOK GREAT! INTERIOR SHOT BEHIND THE SEAT. REMARKABLY NICE & CLEAN! DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR & PANEL LOOKS GREAT! PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR & PANEL LOOKS GREAT AS WELL! VIEW OF THE PASSENGER INTERIOR. PASSENGER SIDE VIEW OF PASSENGER SEAT. THE 460ci V8 RUNS GREAT! SMOOTH, QUIET & PLENTY OF POWER! MECHANICAL: SIZE: 460ci V8 TRANSMISSION: TYPE: AUTOMATIC SHIFTS GREAT. POWER BRAKES CONDITION: SMOOTH & SOLID! POWER STEERING CONDITION: NICE & SMOOTH. EXHAUST: QUIET & SOUNDS GOOD. (DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THE TYPICAL FORD EXHAUST MANIFOLD LEAKS EITHER!)
