This 1979 Ford F-150 Ranger is a short-bed example that is finished in red over black and red vinyl and powered by a 400ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission and a two-speed transfer case. Equipment includes a lifted suspension, an aftermarket Kenwood stereo, a diamond-plate bed floor and rear bumper, power steering, power-assisted front disc brakes, a Holley carburetor, and 15″ Vision wheels with 35″ tires. The truck was acquired by the seller in February 2021 and service during current ownership reportedly included replacing the windshield and renewing the suspension, braking, ignition, and fueling components. This F-150 is now offered with a clean Florida title assigned to the seller’s LLC.
The truck is finished in metallic maroon with black Ford lettering on the tailgate and features a chrome diamond-plate rear bumper, Western-style side mirrors, and bright side trim and rocker-panel moldings. The bed is fitted with a diamond-plate floor and black spray-on liner has been applied. The seller notes the windshield is a replacement and that over-spray is visible in multiple areas of the body.
Polished 15″ Vision wheels are mounted with 35×12.5″ Cooper Discoverer SST Pro white letter tires. The truck is equipped with a suspension lift, power steering, and power-assisted front disc brakes. Service in 2021 is said to include replacing the following components:
Drag link
Tie rods and tie rod ends
Steering stabilizer
Steering box
Brake master cylinder
Front brake calipers, rotors, and pads
Brake hoses
The bench seat and headliner have been reupholstered in red and black vinyl with white piping. The carpets, dash pad, and door panels were also replaced during current ownership, and equipment includes vent windows, a Kenwood Bluetooth stereo, and aftermarket cabin speakers.
The two-spoke steering wheel wears an aftermarket cover and frames an 85-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges. An aftermarket 8k-rpm tachometer is mounted to the steering column. The five-digit odometer shows 87k miles, approximately 1k of which were added during current ownership.
The 400ci V8 was installed during previous ownership and is equipped with an Edelbrock air intake, a Holley carburetor, and tubular exhaust headers, and Flowmaster mufflers. The seller states the following components were replaced in 2021:
Fuel pump and hoses
Carburetor gaskets
Spark plugs and plug wires
