SOLID SOUTHERN V-8 SHORT BED TRUCK….PERFECT TO MAKE A STREET ROD/CRUISER!!!!

1979 FORD F-100 RANGER XLT

SHORT BED

Truck sold new in Alma, Georgia at Benton Brothers Ford.  Truck still has the dealer heavy duty rear bumper on it.  Comes with original owners manual and warranty plate (see photo).  Truck was built in the month of February of 1979 at the Norfolk, Virginia Plant. 

Truck is sold with a Georgia registration and matching bill of sale.

Original 1979 Ford F100 Ranger XLT in good condition. Truck has 120,440 miles on original 302 2bbl v-8 and automatic transmission. Engine runs good, and transmission shifts well.  Dual exhausts still sound good!

Body is in great shape - body panels are straight and fit well, minor surface rust where side molding was attached. Bed is solid with minor surface rust (tailgate has several dents on top edge).  Seat cover is torn on driver’s side, carpet shows its age in places. Visors and Headliner are in good shape.  All glass is in good shape.

Truck was purchased for a father and son project….outside trim was removed and door panels (cracked a little, but wood panels very nice) taken off (they wanted to make a smooth, lowered cruiser).  That was all that had been done; truck has sat for 2 years since…driven maybe twice a month.

Dash pad has cracks in it.

Gas gauge still works well.  All headlights and blinkers work well.  Both hood hinges need to be replaced (warped/broke…typical for these when they are not oiled)

Truck was built at Norfolk, Virginia and factory color is Medium Vaquero Metallic.

This 1979 Ford Truck has numbers matching motor (302 V-8) and 3 speed automatic transmission.  The truck came with power steering and power brakes (brakes pedal soft).   It also came with A/C (does not work).  The undercarriage is in good shape, minor surface rust only.

This truck is an excellent candidate for a customized truck that needs little body work (rust of roof edges is the worst thing) and some minor mechanical work.

Please ask any questions for more information and if needed, more pictures.  This is a 35 year old truck that has never been restored.  It has very solid original sheet metal.  The paint has faded a good bit, but the truck is very straight and has great gaps (it probably has had 1 repaint).

Inspections are welcome, just give me a call or email!

You must have 10 plus feedback to bid on this truck!  Please contact me with any other questions or to make other arrangements.
