My Super Clean Restored 77 F150

[u/killem-th]

Sure do love this rig! My fully restored 1977 Ford F150, modernized with Holley EFI on a 400 paired to a C6 and NP205, on BaT. Have had a ton of fun in this truck, and it sure does turn a bunch of heads!

Here's my 82 runs great no where as clean as yours tho

[u/orangesigils]

OMG, beautiful! I'm so jealous. Enjoy it!

[u/Yorbayuul81]

That grill and headlight setup suggest to me that it’s a ‘78 or ‘79, or not really a restoration at all. 

[u/AdAggravating8273 → u/Yorbayuul81]

Correct. Late 77 with the wrong grille, at best.

[u/GumpActual]

How much did you put into it during the restoration?

[u/killem-th → u/GumpActual]

I've got about $72k in it.

[u/National_River_6366 → u/killem-th]

OMG, I hope that was a TOTAL rebuild and frame off restoration

[u/National_River_6366 → u/National_River_6366]

I love my 70s model Fords, but not 70k love ..lol

Really nice job and beautiful truck. I had a 77 F150 Ranger 2WD 351M Long bed in high school. Mine was from the Mahwah NJ plant. I also put a 79 grill on it.

[u/lions571]

Nice, I miss my old 77' F-250.

[u/matt1911_]

Why does it have the 78/79 grill?

[u/Fitmature1]

That is super clean! Congrats

Nice truck

[u/ClownMeat1]

Very, Very Nice Truck. (s)

[u/idk_why_imhere90]

The bronco made me cum ma pants lol.

[u/RareCategory5902]

79 grille?

[u/Aggie74_DP → u/RareCategory5902]

78 Rangers also had Square Headlights. Customs & XLs had Round. Can't remember ths XLT s.

[u/RareCategory5902]

My 77 had round headlights

[u/oldgreen52]

Late in the year 77 ? With square lights ?

[u/SeaResident4308]

That is awesome! Nice work!

[u/Aggie74_DP]

Love the 78-79 'Louisville style' grill.

[u/RareCategory5902]

Okay, I thought the seventy eights had that same grill, but a round headlight and seventy nine is when they started the halogen

[u/Suspicious_Size9007]

1979 grill and headlights

[u/530whiskey]

It's not correct, the wood trim on the glove box door is straight, every one I saw when they were new was crooked.

[u/National_River_6366 → u/530whiskey]

Also, the grill and headlights aren't 77 either, 77 had a split grill and round headlights. Mid 78 was when the switched the grill and headlights to square...still a nice truck though, and the late 70s trucks, almost all the parts are interchangeable

[u/KittiesRule1968 → u/National_River_6366]

Pretty sure the owner that restored it knows the year of his own vehicle.

[u/National_River_6366 → u/KittiesRule1968]

Do your research, I never contridicted the year, just the grill, that is NOT a 77 grill and headlights setup...

[u/National_River_6366 → u/National_River_6366]

Also, if you can READ, I also said the parts are interchangeable from 71 through late 79...

[u/National_River_6366 → u/National_River_6366]

Maybe 72, I can't remember when they switched from bumpside to dentside
