This Ford F-Series 1967-1972 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1968 Ford F-100 is a 4×2 long-bed pickup that is powered by a 360ci V8 mated to a four-speed manual transmission and a 3.25:1 rear axle. Finished in red over a red vinyl and cloth interior, the truck is equipped with towing mirrors, 15″ steel wheels, a dual exhaust system, a rear step bumper, an AM radio, and a heater. It was acquired in 2022 by the selling dealer, who reports that the valve covers, valve cover gaskets, shocks, spark plugs, ignition cap and rotor, engine oil, positive battery terminal, and air cleaner assembly were replaced in preparation for the sale. This F-100 is now offered at no reserve with a clean Oregon title.
