About the 1973–1979 Ford F-100
from the generation archive
The 1973–1979 Dentside F-100 lives on through builds in every stage — from rough cab interiors packed with decades of debris to clean two-tone green and white '79s sitting pretty on the lawn. Across these pages you'll find engine bay teardowns under tarps, bed-off builds rolling on beefy off-road tires, aftermarket radio installs, and owners kicking back in camp chairs next to their rigs at dusk.
The story
Bought used when I graduated from college. It had a 360 which I rebuilt but was always a dog. Traded cousin my labor of building and installing an original Boss 302 engine in his Boss for a "428" which turned out to be a 390
390 is now rebuilt and runs STRONG. Nicknamed Ole Blue due to its "old blue two tone" paint. — kit427
