Description of 1971 Ford F-100 |
This 1971 Ford F-100 is all abut giving you the little extras. The cool wheels on the vintage body; the cold A/C inside the clean interior; and the detailed motor in the engine bay all come together to make you appreciate a vintage truck and love the upgrades that come with it.The alternating white and light blue give this F-100 a tri-tone appearance that is pure vintage cool. Of course the shining condition tells us there has been a nice recent investment in erasing decades of going to work. The real proof is in the pickup bed, where someone went the extra mile and straightened every dent, gouge, or mark that shows it ever carried a load, or maybe it never did have a hard life. Either way, now the paint has a straight canvas to showcase its sunny, bright disposition of the truck. And speaking of sunny, the bright chrome bumpers have an almost mirror-like quality, which is great to have on this all-American. This is in XLT trim, which means you get the bright trim that runs in an unbroken line from the front to back. And the wood appearance that surrounds it is nicely complemented by the wood panel covering on the tailgate. All of this makes for a stellar '70s package, but you know that's not the truck's whole story. The lowered suspension and 17-inch Cragar Street Pro wheels let us all know that there is more here than just vintage appeal.Step inside, and this gives an impression of being pristinely original, but take a close look, and you'll see all the right upgrades and restorations. It starts with the seat. The vinyl bench looks period correct, but it feels so fresh that you know there has been an investment in a new cover. The same goes for the door panels, carpeting, and headliner that retain the right deep, dark appearance. These make for a nice contrast to all the premium wood paneling that came on the XLT. The three-spoke steering wheel looks like a true classic feature. The color nicely matches the exterior and dash, and it's also one of the final years Ford offered a classily styled piece like this. But what really makes the truck special are all of the upgrades. There's a new AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input so you can listen to modern tunes in this vintage ride. Plus, while we know you'll love sliding the back window open for a nice breeze, you can make sure it's always cool with the R134a air conditioning mounted below the dash.Under the hood is Ford's famous 302 cubic-inch V8. The presentation is exceptionally tidy with all the components looking new or refreshed, right down to the exhaust manifolds. Everything looks so good that it only makes the shiny Ford Racing valve covers and air grabber standout even more. And this clean attitude even extends all the way under the truck. So as you look at the undercarriage photos, you can really tell there has been an investment in this pickup. But as good as it looks, this F100 still gets the job done. The V8 delivers a good wallop of low-end torque with a crisp V8 burble from the twin tailpipes out back. Plus, the three-speed automatic transmission, twin I-beam front suspension, front disc brakes, and modern tires all come together to make sure this is quite a comfortable experience going down the road.Here's a pickup that looks like a cool classic, but leaves you wanting for nothing in modern features. The best of everything is waiting for the first person to grab this deal. Call today!!! |
