Ford F-250 360 V8 1970
General description :
CLEAN & STRAIGHT CAMPER SPECIAL! 360 V8, AUTO, COLD A/C, PS & B, MARTI REPORT
Sporting a nice, two-tone paint job, a solid drivetrain and a number of great touches to refresh its look both inside and out, this 1970 Ford F-250 Camper Special stands ready, willing and able to begin its next chapter of service, whether that encompasses daily nostalgia-infused journeys to a worksite with equipment stowed in back, or performing as a trusty workhorse to bear supplies for your weekend projects.
More than 45 years have gone by since this truck first saw the light of day, but a quick lap around will provide ample proof that it's still has plenty of life yet to enjoy. It's received some well-planned attention along the way - a nice red and white 2-tone paint scheme replaces its original lime shade and carries a strong clearcoat on top, a recently-installed seal frames the windshield up front in a deep black hue, and a sliding rear window sits fully functional in back. Beyond question, this Ford has aged exceptionally. The bumpers in both front and back and those long stretches of chrome trim on the sides remain straight and level, the gaps between body panels are nice and even, and the fresh-looking raised Ford lettering on the tailgate looms over a new rubber guard in back to reinforce the notion that this venerable pickup is all ready to hit the road and get things done.
Climb inside and you'll find a very nice red and white two-tone interior that's without a doubt the aesthetic superior to the green counterpart it's replaced. Well-padded and showing very little wear, the bench seat is plenty comfortable, even for long excursions, and the door panels, which also carry the red and white pattern of the exterior, are grime free and sit flush inside their shells. Overhead, you'll find that the headliner matches the color pattern and texture of the bench seat, a really nice touch. Just in front of the stock steering wheel sitting on a new, black column, the dash area also remains in its original configuration and is crowned by a fresh black dash pad. This truck came equipped with air conditioning, and it continues to blow strong and cold to keep you and your occupants nice and comfortable. The bed in back shows no major dents and has been treated with a thick coat of liner to make it well up to the task of standing up to any cargo you may wish to carry.
Very much in the spirit of an exceedingly capable but no-nonsense pickup like this one, everything remains stock underneath the hood. The original 360 cubic inch V8 sits inside, running with the smoothness and reliability that will convince you this truck is up to the task of being driven as often as you'd like. It's outfitted with the features that will allow you to navigate with confidence, including power steering and power brakes. Looking to take a nice, long trip? You won't likely have to stop very often on the way to your destination, as this F-250 is carrying not only its standard fuel tank, but also an auxiliary 25-gallon tank that sits right next to it. And, with posi-traction in back, you'll be armed to deal with any uneven roads you might encounter along the way. This workhorse sits on a set of stock 16" Ford truck rims outfitted with Nexen Roadian HTX tires.
Complete with a Marti Report, if you are looking for a well-equipped, sturdy vintage pickup that's ready to tackle anything you can throw at it? You have to check out this 1970 Ford F-250 Camper Special. 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.
