This is my 1978 f150

 

Beautiful. Best looking F-Series IMO. What's under the hood, 460?

 

It's a 390 with about 330hp, pulled out of a 73 and built from the ground up

 

Beautiful truck man. Is that a body lift or a lift kit or stock stance 4x4? I need details please I'm already thinking of how I could convince my wife

 

It's a 3 in body lift and 3 in suspension lift ( soon to be replaced with a 6 in suspension kit, it's sitting on 35 in BGgoodrich mud ta's and it's got a Detroit locker rear end in a built ford 9in

 

Do you ever take it off-road? That thing must be really fun to drive.

 

When off road I don't really need 4 x4 because of that locking rear, it just powers through in 2 wheel, but when the stiff gets thick it nice to through her in 4x4. Tell you the truth a like driving down main st. More because you get a lot of chevy guys just stare, they think their truck is faster but that big block is no sleeper when on full throttle.

 

Some more random pics, new engine new rear end rebuilt front end, the list goes on

BTW 5 mpg if anyone is asking

 

Nice! My college roommate had a '78 with a '70 429 with ported and polished heads. Manual trans. I used to drive him to class in it and take it through downtown Chico on the way back. Single 4" exhaust I think it was. Good times.
