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.
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.
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.

Ford’s longest-running series to date, the F-Series entered production in 1948, and revolutionized small businesses across America. Here was a sturdy, capable and reliable pickup truck that came in capacities of ½ ton upwards. It offered a great way to transport your goods to market, bring back raw materials, and carry your family as well. Now we’re on the fourteenth generation of the F-Series, and there have been many greats along the way. This 2008 Ford F-150 Harley Davidson comes from the eleventh generation and is the result of a collaboration between Ford and Harley Davidson. This special edition was offered for the tenth generation as well. Furthermore, this truck comes with the Saleen supercharger package, making it one heck of a ride to own and drive.
Ford’s F-Series full-size pickup truck has been a mainstay of American life ever since it was born in 1948. One of the Blue Oval’s longest-running nameplates, the range initially started with the F-100. From 1984, the F-150 came about as the half-ton variant in the range. Since 1977, the F-Series has been the best-selling pickup truck in the United States. What’s more, you can find ferocious performance variants that can genuinely startle the average muscle car or sports car. Take this 2023 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake as a prime example. With well over 700 raging horses packed in a supercharged 5.0L V8, waiting to be unleashed, this 13,000-mile monster could be yours!
Ford’s popular F-150 is well regarded as the best half-ton pickup truck around. A member of the F-Series lineage, it has been providing dependable and utilitarian transport to enterprising Americans for decades.

So, as you can imagine, the F-Series is one of America’s best-sellers, and an immensely loved nameplate. This particular 1985 Ford F-150 Lariat Explorer comes from the seventh generation, which ran between 1979 and 1986. With a reportedly original 93,062 miles on the clock, it’s received a recent servicing as well, to keep it running smoothly. So why not buy this truck and make it your weekend runner?

In the ʼ00s, Ford decided to honor its timeless Thunderbird personal luxury car with a retro-modern eleventh generation. Produced for just three short years, this eleventh-generation T-Bird saw over 60,000 units made. Heavily inspired by the first generation from the 1950s, this new T-Bird sat on a modern platform, and used a V8 from Jaguar, of all places. Today, we’ve got a 2003 Ford Thunderbird for those who are intrigued by this pastiche of ʼ50s styling and ʼ00s mechanicals and creature comforts. The car has done only 8,312 miles, making it a real rare find, and a definitive future classic.

Jeep is well-known for making capable off-roaders, but did you know that they also make pickup trucks? The Gladiator is their current contender in the segment, but between 1986 and 1992, the Comanche held the torch. Based on the Cherokee of the time, the Comanche competed in the compact pickup truck segment. Naturally, it packed the same off-road abilities. So if you’re interested in picking up a relatively modern classic pickup truck with a difference, check out this 20,077-mile 1986 Jeep Comanche that we’re offering for sale. The truck comes with all maintenance up to date, for added peace of mind.
Chevrolet pickup trucks are some of the most sought-after classic trucks on the market, with their designs being wistful memories of a bygone era. Our featured 1955 Chevrolet 3100 is exactly that: an honest American workhorse hero that has received some extra love and attention after years of work. Having undergone a full restoration, which includes a rebuilt engine and an all-new rear end, this classic Chevy is available for sale in New Iberia, Louisiana.

Ford’s epic sport utility vehicle, the Bronco is one of the Blue Oval’s most desirable vehicles in North America. When it debuted in 1965, Ford had a hard time keeping up with demand. Then, when they discontinued it in 1996, they were lucky that there weren’t crowds with pitchforks gathered outside their headquarters. Thankfully, the Bronco is back, and selling once again like hot cakes. However, if you want a classic Bronco, there are five fantastic generations to pick from. This 1972 Ford Bronco comes from the very first generation, and is an excellent example of what made the Bronco so sought after. Having undergone a frame-off build by Gateway Bronco in Hamel, Illinois, this vehicle is up for sale.
