Ford F-150 390 V8 1976

General description : NICE QUALITY 4X4, FACTORY COLORS, 360 V8, AUTO, PS, PB W/FRNT DISCS, FUN TRUCK!

You can get all the workhorse features you want in a 4x4 pickup – including a mighty V8 and large bed – and still not have to give up the cool custom vintage appearance. Best of all, this attention-grabbing 1976 Ford F-150 Ranger will cost you a ton less than a brand new 4x4.
The factory-correct Bali Blue has the kind of standout appearance you would expect from the high-end Ranger. The has been given a professional respray at least once in its life to make sure this tough 4x4 retains its bright personality. Plus, one look at the super-straight body, and it's obvious this wasn't some contractor's beater. Because this truck was a top trim available in 1976, it came with all that great brightwork running down sides and across the tailgate. However, some of your favorite appearance pieces also add to the truck's usefulness. For example, the diamond plating along the side of the bed help protect the paint when you utilize the extra utility of the long bed to the fullest. And the side steps are a great addition because of the tall 4x4 stance. Plus, we know that trailer hitch is making you think about all the toys you can tow with this vintage Ford.
Inside is great period-correct comfort. This is an original blue interior, and so we like how the exterior color has returned on the dash. Plus, the darker blue carpets and door panels coordinate nicely. The vinyl bench seat is now covered in a comfortable cloth. So it's easy to hop in and go for a ride any time. You'll love all the originality of the steering wheel, gauges, heat/defrost controls, and AM/FM stereo. But the best piece you'll love is a true vintage truck classic feature. On any given day, you can open the side vent windows, slide the rear glass, and it creates that perfect breeze that makes you fall in love with vintage pickup motoring.
This is a big truck, but fortunately, there's a big motor to move it around. The 360 cubic-inch V8 is a powerful Ford legend. More than just the nice wallop of power, the V8 has the right look for an original vehicle, right down to the jack still mounted under the hood. This is a dual fuel tank vehicle, and when you combine that with the two-speed 4x4 transfer case, you soon realize this one can take you further than most other trucks. But even when it's just running around town this is a great pickup. The four-speed manual transmission is fun to take full control of the V8. Plus, power steering and front disc brakes make it easy to drive anywhere.
Complete with owner's manual and original warranty card, this is that perfect kind of vintage vehicle that is great to show off and still earns its keep. And at this value price, a mix of fun and utility won't stay with us long. Call today!!!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.

Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.

During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.

In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.

In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.

Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
