This 1978 Ford F-150 Ranger was purchased by the seller in Oregon in 2019 and subsequently relocated to Florida. The overbored 400ci V8 has been fitted with ported and polished cylinder heads, a Comp Cams camshaft, and an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and intake manifold. Power is sent through a three-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. The truck is finished in Bahama Blue over black vinyl and cloth and features manually locking front hubs, front disc brakes, an auxiliary fuel tank, 15″ alloy wheels, a bed liner, a bed toolbox, an AM/FM stereo, and an air conditioning system. This dentside F-150 is now offered in Florida with a clean Oregon title in the seller’s name.
The truck is finished in Bahama Blue and features a Styleside bed with a spray-in liner and a toolbox, as well as a sliding rear window, a lockable tool stowage box, and chrome bumpers. Exterior imperfections are noted.
The 15″ alloy wheels are mounted with 33×12.50″ BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2 tires. The truck is equipped with manually locking front hubs and power-assisted front discs.
The cabin features a bench seat trimmed in black vinyl and cloth, as well as an air conditioning system, an AM/FM stereo, and a white headliner and sun visors.

The 400ci V8 was modified under previous ownership.
