With the programmable Sniper EFI, Holley Sniper Distributor and Edelbrock fuel sump, no more worries about cold starts and idle issues. Head turner and thumbs up, everywhere it goes. Custom, unique, and quite affordable, this 1978 Ford F-100 is the kind of truck you"ve always dreamed of owning, and available right now. Great list of features/upgrades: 1970 Ford Cleveland 351 V8 upgraded/replacement engine (Mustang sourced) 2V Cleveland heads for great low end torque Comp Cams High Energy Camshaft - part #32-221-3 Edelbrock Performer Aluminum 4 bbl dual plane intake Holley Sniper EFI Self-Tuning Fuel Injection Systems - model 550-511 Holley Sniper Hyperspark Distributor - model 565-303BK Edelbrock EFI Sump Fuel Systems –model 36032 New Aluminum Water Pump Under hood fuel pressure and vacuum gauges.

JVC KW-V850BT Head Unit with AndroidAuto / CarPlay CD/DVD Stereo / Bluetooth Sony Xplode Speakers, Amp and Subwoofer(s) Tachometer - Dash Installed Shaved rear bumper Shaved tail gate handle Smoked out rear lights and turn signals HID Headlights 20" Cruiser Alloy wheels 275/45/20 Goodyear Eagle GTII tires Rear Lowering shackles (new - not installed) (all engine swap/setup work completed in January 2020)
Ford"s new for 1978 face/grill was part of a rare two-year design, and the round headlights are even rarer. So it"s something that is always in-demand. The Candy Apple Deep Red Metallic paint is stunning and shows off the great lines of the truck. Custom paint was also applied to places like the grille, headlight surrounds, and bumper. It gives the truck a very modern look, and that customization continues on with more custom pieces like the flush tailgate, rolled rear pan, and the smoked taillights. A little chrome can be found in places like the large 20-inch Cruiser alloys and door handles. This truck"s presentation is great, but you can still use it for true work thanks to the protective bed-liner paint and protective rubber pad. The stance is great, but for those wanting to go lower, I will ship the truck with a set of rear lowering shackles that you can install.
Inside, the bright exterior red paintwork continues, and now it"s joined by a tasteful black. You can see this everywhere, including the dash, doors, and carpeting. Even the custom seats follow the two-tone and are high-back buckets, power adjustable and even have an armrest center console in-between that raises and makes room for 3. Plus, there are other great upgrades inside like A/C, cup holders, a wood & chrome steering wheel, and an large double DIN JVC head unit (apple car play and android car play capable).
Take a look at the under hood pictures. Truck now has a great looking Cleveland (351ci) V8 power-plant that resides where the original 300 ci straight 6 engine lived for the life of the original truck. Not only is this a rare vintage power-plant (not available in trucks in the US), but it has been upgraded with modern amenities such as Air conditioning, a dual plane Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock fuel sump, Holley Sniper Distributor and programmable Holley Sniper EFI. What this allows for is full engine management (fuel and spark), gobs of torque to get the job done, effortless cruising and reliable turn key operation. The Sniper hand held tuner gives you all readouts and adjustability. Exhaust note is a nice rumble, deep and loud thanks to the dual Borla mufflers. Plus, there"s an upgraded radiator, a three-speed C6 automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes. So this custom classic is also a great any time cruiser. A pleasure to drive. Cruises along at 1400 rpm effortlessly doing 45 mph. Highway cruising is a blast. Turning about 2300 rpm at 65, nice and smooth. Nice small lope at idle and you will definitely get noticed on acceleration as those Borlas sound great. Brakes work great and steering is awesome with the power assist. Handling is on par with a 1978 truck, so maybe not a track day beast without more work.
Something that looks this nice is rarely this affordable. So don"t miss your chance, bid today! Save tons off trying to build something comparable! NO Reserve! - winning bid gets the truck!
