Background Story of this 1978 Ford F-150

Overview of 1978 Ford F-150 For Sale by Owner

The Ford F150 has long been the most popular pick-up in the United States, and it’s earned its reputation for being a solid work truck, capable of fulfilling just about any role asked of it. Even with a new era of electrification, the F150 shows no sign of slowing down, with new fans being found for the all-electric F150 Lightning. But while a new generation of F150 owners continues to keep the nameplate alive, its trucks like our featured listing from 1978 that paved the way. Our featured 1978 Ford F150 Custom has been fully restored and includes a rebuilt engine. The owner describes it as a restomod and from these images, it certainly looks the part.

Exterior and Interior

The boxy and purposeful lines of the 1978 Ford F150 Custom give the truck a bold design, while the short bed layout lends itself to the proportions. This particular version features a bright orange exterior color. Described as a full restoration, the paint is likely new. You’ll also notice the lift kit, which adds ride height to the truck. The tall stance is further enhanced with the chunky off-road Mastercraft tires. The single-cab cabin features a bench seat and a black interior. There’s a Pioneer double-din stereo head unit present and an auxiliary oil pressure gauge located under the dash. Then, atop the steering column is a tachometer so that you can keep an eye on the revs.

Engine

Under the hood of this 1978 Ford F150 Custom lies a 400ci V8 engine that has reportedly undergone a full rebuild. This truck features selectable four-wheel drive and sends power to the wheels via an automatic transmission.

2007 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$44,499

In 2005, Ford revealed the all-new fifth generation Mustang to the public. This was a significant moment, because the fourth generation was really old in the tooth. It would sit on a totally new platform, and have styling that harked back to the original first-generation as well. The fifth generation also marked the return of the Shelby Mustang. This fine association was prevalent in the first generation, when Carroll Shelby’s outfit tuned Mustangs to become thoroughbred racehorses! In 2007, the Shelby GT500 for the fifth generation was released, and we have an under 10,000-mile example for sale now. This car comes with the original window sticker too, making it a definite must-have for the discerning collector, or someone who wants a relatively rare Mustang to enjoy.

1987 AM General Humvee M998

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$42,999

The OG Hummer, the AM General Humvee is the military variant on which the entire Hummer brand was created around, at the request of Arnold Schwarzenegger. Having encountered these vehicles in movies, it’s no surprise that The Terminator fell in love with them. Of course, at that time, the only way a civilian could expose themselves to a Humvee in the capacity of driving it was to likely join the military. Now, you can find plenty of old, ex-service Humvees entering civilian life after they retire from active duty. This 1987 AM General Humvee M998 is one such candidate, and it’s got just 37,300 miles to its name. But that’s not important, what matters is how it’s been tastefully customized. You’ve got a Tropical Blue repaint, a custom navy and white Sunbrella top, a diesel V8 under the hood, and so much more to appreciate. Hard to imagine, isn’t it, that this was once a military troop transport!
