Ford F-150 351 M 1979

General description : Description
This 1979 Ford F-150 is the right year, has the right look, the right recent investments, and has the right V8 power to give you proper 4x4 ability. So when it's also priced-right, you're looking at the right deal.
The '79 F-Series is quite a desirable truck. After all, the sixth-gen pickups are some of the most sought-after around, and this final-year came with the distinct grille and square headlights. And these Fords always look good in Wimbledon White. This is a later application, and so you get quite a nice gloss in the sunshine. And speaking of shine, there's also some good brightwork in the chrome bumpers, new grille, and full-length trim. But what we really like is the well-coordinated look of black against the white. You see in in places like the rub strip of the body trim, tailgate trim, and the upgraded 15-inch vector-style wheels. They even invested in a new bed liner that not only adds to the black accenting, but also it means this F-150 is still ready for real truck duty.
The black really takes over the inside, and now the white is the accenting. The presentation is absolutely vintage, right down to the wood-like trim on the dash. But as you look a little closer, you can also see they made all the right investments. The new seat, new door panels, new floor pans, and new carpeting give this a fresh feeling where you know you'll want to spend some time. So the truck is inviting without losing the classic atmosphere. This even has the side vent windows and slidinging rear glass, and together they provide a breeze through the cab like only an old-school truck can.
You can instantly see more great investments under the hood. The 351 cubic-inch V8's engine block has fresh paint so the bold blue radiates from within the dark inner walls. Plus, it has all the right stout equipment, like a rebuilt carburetor, newer distributor, plug wires, and a fresh tune-up. The V8 fires up strong, and the headers help the dual exhaust make a sweet rumble. The two-speed 4x4 transfer case, lifted stance, and Nexen Roadian all-terrain tires are great for off-road work. And the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes with front discs are there to make sure you can easily enjoy this one in-town, too.
You know this F-150 gets it correct in all right places, including the price. So it makes for a classic 4x4 you need to get your hands on right now. 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
