Background Story of this 1978 Ford F-250

Overview of 1978 Ford F-250 For Sale by Owner

Present today is this 1978 Ford F-250 Custom. It's a lovely classic American truck with a reported 81,256 miles on the clock. It is a machine that's ready to munch down the miles on that Sunday drive while also being a practical machine for when you need to move stuff around.

Exterior and Interior

Dressed in a dark blue metallic exterior, there really is no better way to complement that iconic classic design. A walk around this 1978 Ford F-250 Custom and you would find all its styling intact and not another victim of rough and tough usage. A step back and you would also notice that this truck rides higher than the usual and thats due to a reported 6" lift in place. Bridging the gap between this trucks height and tarmac is a set of 17" steel wheels that are finished off in black and wrapped with a set of 35" Kumho Road Venture AT52 Tires for added off road aesthetic. Stepping into the color-matched blue vinyl interior of this 1978 Ford F-250 Custom, you are greeted by the sight of a complete 70s interior cabin ready to entertain its latest custodian. A look around reveals bench seats, Ford styled carpets, air conditioning to weather out those summer drives and a pioneer head unit for your tunes.

Engine

A lifted stance and good looks can only mean one thing: a surprise performance that raises one's eyebrows when pushed. Pop open the hood of this 1978 Ford F-250 Custom, and the purveyor of that performance is none other than a gigantic 460 V8 powertrain churning out some serious performance. Speaking of performance, a closer look at the engine bay reveals some lovely treats: an Edelbrock air filter housing, aftermarket valve covers, and an MSD ignition. Giving you better traction off the beaten path is Four Wheel Drive that derives its power through a reported C63 3-speed automatic transmission.

With its massive stance, integrated fuel system upgrades, and lighting features, this truck stands out as both a capable workhorse and a showpiece build.

1924 Ford Model T Touring

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$14,999

The Ford Model T is quite simply one of the most important automobiles ever built, credited with transforming motoring from a luxury reserved for the wealthy into something accessible to ordinary Americans.

This 1924 Ford Model T Touring represents that legacy in one of the marque’s most recognizable body styles, offering open-air motoring exactly as drivers would have experienced it a century ago. Showing TMU (true mileage unknown), this example is presented in classic Red and Black with a Black folding soft top, preserving the unmistakable character of early American transportation. For collectors seeking a true pre-war automotive artifact, few vehicles offer the same historical significance or conversation-starting presence as a Model T.

1965 Ford Mustang Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER

$47,500

Few cars symbolize the birth of the American pony car quite like the first-generation Ford Mustang. Introduced in 1964, the Mustang became an instant cultural phenomenon, redefining the performance car landscape with its stylish design, approachable pricing, and broad personalization options. This 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible captures that spirit beautifully, showing approximately 7,818 miles and finished in iconic Poppy Red over a matching Red interior with a crisp White convertible soft top. Equipped with V8 power, the desirable Pony Interior Package, styled steel wheels, and modern Bluetooth audio functionality, this Mustang blends timeless 1960s charm with upgrades that make it even more enjoyable to drive and own today.

1995 Ford Mustang GT Convertible Supercharged

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$23,999

This 1995 Ford Mustang GT Convertible is what happens when a clean SN95 cruiser is transformed into a genuinely serious street machine. While the chassis shows 99,658 miles, the seller reports that the heavily upgraded drivetrain is substantially fresher, with approximately 2,000 miles on the built 347 stroker V8 and fewer than 750 miles on the professionally built transmission. Finished in factory-correct Laser Red Metallic over Saddle with a matching Saddle soft top, this Mustang retains classic mid-1990s convertible charm while packing performance figures that would embarrass many modern muscle cars. With a dyno-reported output of over 450 horsepower at the wheels and more than 510 lb-ft of torque, this is not a casual bolt-on build—it’s a purposefully assembled forced-induction street car for enthusiasts who appreciate old-school supercharged V8 brutality.

1987 Chevrolet El Camino

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$20,999

The Chevrolet El Camino occupies a uniquely American niche that no modern automaker truly replicates—a vehicle that blends passenger car comfort with pickup-style practicality in one unmistakable package.

Showing 77,554 miles, this 1987 Chevrolet El Camino stands out with tasteful mechanical upgrades and classic cruiser appeal, finished in its factory-correct Light Chestnut Metallic/Dark Chestnut Metallic two-tone exterior over a Saddle interior. Under the hood sits a 350ci V8 upgrade paired with a host of aftermarket performance enhancements, making this a more engaging machine than a stock example. As one of the last true coupe utilities produced in America, this El Camino offers a compelling mix of nostalgia, usability, and V8-powered character.

1985 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE

The Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler occupies a unique place in Jeep history as one of the brand’s most distinctive and collectible utility vehicles. Produced for just a short run between 1981 and 1986, the Scrambler combined the iconic open-air CJ formula with a longer wheelbase and pickup-style cargo bed, creating a machine that was equally at home on the trail or around town. This 1985 Jeep CJ-8 Scrambler shows approximately 218,424 miles and presents as a charismatic example finished in red over a black interior. With its removable hardtop, rugged utility upgrades, and unmistakable Jeep character, this CJ-8 represents a classic analog 4x4 from the golden era of off-road motoring.

1986 Jeep CJ-7

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,500

The Jeep CJ-7 represents one of the last truly analog chapters in Jeep’s storied off-road history, arriving before the Wrangler ushered in a more modern era. Produced from 1976 through 1986, the CJ-7 became one of the most recognizable civilian 4x4s ever built, blending rugged simplicity with removable-top freedom and genuine trail capability. This 1986 Jeep CJ-7, showing 158,355 miles, represents the final model year of the iconic CJ lineage, giving it added appeal among Jeep enthusiasts. Finished in a cheerful Sky Blue over a reupholstered tan leather cabin with a white hard top, this example combines vintage Jeep charm with thoughtful modern usability upgrades, making it a far friendlier classic to enjoy regularly than a bare-bones stock truck.
