Have had this old Ford since forever. Bought her for 700 dollars back in 1994 and
drove her until last year before deciding to give her something back for all she had
given me. She is finished in Hot Rod Flatz black and has had just about everything
either replaced or rebuilt. Not show quality but I like her. Four speed with creeper
granny low. Built back when pickups were pickups and not cars with beds on them
like the ones today. The 460 gets about 8 mpg. Better than that when it is parked! Jan 17, 2011

It has a 429 cobra jet in it. 650 horsepower. braking is good but not 100%. As for handling it is smooth. Its built like nothing else. interior is nice needs some work and exterior is spotless. It eats gas like it was candy so i get 1 mile per gulp. maitenance is easy. OMG this truck is so flippin fun to drive.Aug 30, 2009

Build like a tank. I off road it five to ten times a year and it has yet to leave me stranded. From hill climbs to having it hood deep in mud it just keeps coming back for more. Its a great truck.Jan 08, 2009

I own one of these trucks. It is a short bed stepside that is Lifted 4in in the suspension and 3in in the body. This truck has been the most reliable truck that I have ever owned. I have had some problems with it but nothing major. I have restored it from the frame up. Great truck over all.May 28, 2008

The 73-79 Ford trucks were my first trucks. I'm restoring a 79 Supercab 4x4 now...I love the looks, 4x4 ability, and ease of repairs to these trucks..They just have a great lookFeb 03, 2008
