1978 Ford F-250 2WD – 400 V8 | Automatic | Runs & Drives | Classic Project Truck
This 1978 Ford F-250 is a running and driving classic powered by the original 400 V8 paired with its original automatic transmission. The truck starts easily—even after sitting—and runs well, but it has been parked for the past several years and will need continued use and light sorting.
A solid platform for someone looking for a usable project or drive-and-improve classic.
