He who laughs lastand#44; laughs best. Everybody scoffed at the idea of a high-performance pickup truck Ford hit the scene in 1993 with the F-150 Lightningand#44; but today this muscle truck is a true collectable. After alland#44; with its high-performance 5.8-liter V8and#44; great factory red paintand#44; and nice custom touchesand#44; this is a highly desirable pickup that will be leaving us quickly. In this first yearand#44; you could only get the Lightning in black or redand#44; and only 2and#44;585 were panted the Bright Red. This kind of rarity would make the factory paintwork amazing all on its ownand#44; but the odometer shows 67and#44;242 original miles – an average of less than 3and#44;000 per year. That low number feels right on this truck because the factory paint still retains an excellent shine. We know there was a lot of care that when into maintaining the pickupand#44; and it defiantly had the priority spot in the garage. Ford dipped everything on the truck in the same fiery redand#44; including the bumpers and grilleand#44; so its shine is a bit more devilish. But this one goes a step further with a full bodykit that includes a custom front bumperand#44; flared fendersand#44; and door step panels. Plusand#44; theres no mistaking the aggressiveness a billet grille brings. The truck bed has been upgraded to carpeting and secure hard-shell tonneau coverand#44; effectively making for a 4-by-6 foot trunk. The interior got a big upgrade over the standard F-150and#44; starting with those comfortable cloth bucket seats. Grippy yet comfortable for all-day drivesand#44; they offer nice side bolstering to handle the corners. In between is an occasional seat for a third person that can also be folded to give you cup holder center console. Just about every option on the F-150 is on this Lightningand#44; such as air conditioningand#44; power windowsand#44; power locksand#44; cruise controland#44; and a full array of instrumentsand#44; including tach. The speedometer reads to 120 and this truck will probably use most of that! This one also received the desirable sliding rear window. The Lightning received a reworked version of Fords fuel-injected 5.8-liter V8. The true secret to this 351W are the heads and intake very similar to the GT-40 setup used on the Mustang Cobra. All the usual 5.0 bolt-ons work just as well hereand#44; but thankfully this very original pickup remains almost entirely stock – that intake manifold is still one of the most beautiful castings to ever come out of FoMoCo. It starts easily and runs surprisingly smoothand#44; with a bottomless well of torque that lets you spin the tires like a muscle car if you desire. But this pickup also has a practical sideand#44; too. Its linked to a quick-shifting AOD four-speed automatic overdrive transmissionand#44; and theres also power steeringand#44; front disc brakesand#44; and modern Hankook tires attached to the Lightnings special 17-inch alloy wheels. So its really up to you to choose between mild or wild anytime you want. Interestingand#44; affordableand#44; and looking stellarand#44; this first-year F-150 Lightning is everything you want in a cool classic pickup. But since it fits into nearly any budgetand#44; you know you have to be quick to take this deal home. Call today!!! |
