This 1979 Ford F150 Custom short bed step side pickup showcases timeless vintage Ford styling paired with tasteful upgrades from its restoration. The body is straight with excellent panel alignment, finished in a deep black basecoat/clearcoat paint that highlights the truck's rugged lines. The bed is equally impressive, featuring fresh wood flooring and a clean fit and finish. Both the front and rear bumpers are new, and the grille and marker lights present like new, adding to the truck's sharp appearance. A suspension and body lift enhance its stance, giving it the bold, elevated look collectors love. All glass, seals, and weather stripping remain in great condition, while the truck rides on polished 15-inch Alcoa wheels wrapped in massive 35x14 white-letter tires—perfectly setting off this 4x4's aggressive presence.

Inside, the F150 continues to impress with a red and black two-tone interior that complements the exterior finish. The restored bench seat is upholstered for both comfort and durability, while the door panels, carpet, and sill plates are all in excellent condition. A new headliner and sun visors were installed during the restoration, ensuring a fresh, finished cabin. The dash is painted in red and retains the factory gauge cluster, supplemented by neatly installed aftermarket gauges for improved functionality. This truck features an automatic column shifter alongside a floor-mounted shifter for the 4x4 system, staying true to its rugged purpose while offering an upgraded driving environment.

Under the hood, this '79 Ford is powered by a new crate 351M cubic-inch V8 topped with a four-barrel intake and carburetor. It's dressed with aluminum valve covers and a chrome air cleaner, giving the engine bay a crisp look. Power steering and power brakes with front discs provide modern convenience, while the engine is paired to a durable C6 automatic transmission and 9-inch rear end. Underneath, the frame and floor pans remain in good condition, with suspension components upgraded during the lift installation. On the road, the truck performs strong, with smooth shifts and stable handling—remarkable for a lifted classic pickup.

Combining classic short bed step side styling with a lifted 4x4 stance and reliable V8 power, this 1979 Ford F150 Custom is more than just a driver—it's a head-turning collectible ready for shows, cruises, or weekend adventures. With its striking black finish, upgraded interior, and solid mechanicals, this truck represents one of Ford's most iconic generations in standout fashion.
