1978 Ford F-150 Ranger 4x4 Short Bed – Garage Kept | 351M | BDS Lift | Original Interior | Documented History
This 1978 Ford F-150 Ranger Short Bed 4x4 is a documented, garage-kept survivor with a well-preserved history and tasteful upgrades. Originally sold at Duthler Ford in Grand Rapids, MI, it received a factory ZieBart undercoating that helped protect it from northern rust. It's since been repainted and lightly customized while retaining much of its originality.
