1969 ford f-100 - lithia springs, gastreetside classicslithia springs, ga 30122ph: 8773671835web: www. With a few updates for more power and comfort, this truck is really dialed-in. The familiar wimbledon white finish is quiet and clean, just the way trucks like this should be. Ford wasn't doing flashy in 1969, this was a working man's tool, not a fashion statement, so it was attractive but not over-done. Nice, but not a perfect trailer queen. The bodywork is straight, the panels line up nicely, and the bed hasn't been bashed.

While most of these trucks got torquey inline-sixes, this particular truck sports a torquey 360 cubic inch v8 that's unique to the f-series trucks. Fully rebuilt around six thousand miles ago, it's got an upgraded cam, edelbrock intake manifold, and a holley 4-barrel carburetor living under a chrome air cleaner. Ford blue engine enamel on the block stands out against the satin black engine bay and a giant radiator keeps it nice and cool. Ceramic-coated headers feed a 2. 5-inch exhaust system with glasspack-style mufflers, so it's got that familiar ford rumble and the 4-speed manual transmission was just fully rebuilt and snaps through all of the gears with authority. The undercarriage is nicely detailed with a light dusting of undercoating, but nothing heavy enough to hide trouble; it's just there to keep things looking neat and clean, and the. AM/FM
