An employee for Sam Galloway Ford and a resident of the Sunshine State, Ford truck enthusiast ‘78350 has recently taken on a solid and wonderful build — a 1978 Ford F-350.

This truck may not look the prettiest, but it’s the perfect starting point for a restoration from the frame up, and it’s well on its way. It currently has a V8 400 engine and C6 automatic transmission. This Ford has a full engine rebuild, performance upgrades, and much, much more in its future!

So far, the frame has been sandblasted and painted, the floor pans repaired and replaced, and the cab floor and firewall have been painted.

There is still a long way to go for this truck, but considering that the build began around May goes to show that this truck is surely making consistent progress! It will certainly be beastly and strong when complete, and we can’t wait!

A new interior, rims, and a full fresh coat of paint are what’s waiting in the future for this Ford, not to mention the upgrades and repairs under the hood that will surely arrive as well! Go drop by ‘78350’s build thread and show your support!
