Hey Tyler I beleive I bought my bed off you and your dad one cold winters day

 

Nothing rare about that-all the 73-79 F350 SRW standard cab 4x2s had the 140" wheelbase with the narrow frame and side panel spare carrier. They also had a telescoping rear bumper

 

A telescoping rear bumper? What did that look like?

 

I had this example on my truck, it pulls out to offer protection for an slide-in camper. Ford did not offer these mounts as factory-installed equipment, they were aftermarket items that the factory bumper could be mounted to.

The brackets are still in place on my 75 F-150. It did have a camper years ago.

 

Ah, couldn't figure out why someone would want a telescopic rear bumper, I guess that makes sense.

 

The large heavy campers extend beyond the 8' box. It's nice to have the step
bumper for the door.

 

Any from the east coast that isn't a rusty pile. That's the rarest option.


Im also told, but have never seen personally, a 400M with a factory 4 barrel. There are guys that SWEAR a handful were made, and some sales literature mentions it, but to date, none has ever seen one in person.

 

There was a ranger package option with pseudo boss 302 stripes. Rare. Extended frame F-350s with the extended bed on it. Rare. Any with factory big block, cruise and air with lariat trim. Double option super camper special with trailer package. 1978 sno-fighter with front dana 60 on a super cab. Any 79 F-350 4x4 crew cab or supercab. a bunch more, but cant think of them right now.

 

Mine must be more common....F-150, XLT Ranger, 390-Holley 4 barrel, factory a.c.
that works, Viking Edition. You find a twin to it.

 

How about 77 F250 4x4 supercab with dual battery and 100 AMP alternator?

 

Ford didn't make 4X4 supercabs until 1978.

 

May be this in green.

 

It seems a good possible answer is the powered rear window.


crazy rare!




(also never seen the lighted visor either......cool and rare....but the power rear window..jeeesh...would love to see some numbers on that.)

 

Yeah ^^^ me too. That is one item I've never seen. Most other stuff I have seen, but not that one. My Bronco has a lighted visor in it. But it's red in color.
