I am too old to be working on Fords but I have a 17 year old daughter that just had to have this 78 F150. Short bed, 4x4, automatic, air with a used up 351m. I paid too much for it. I figured that out when I tried to unload it off the trailer. No brakes, no oil pressure, a burned valve and the c bushings gone. There is absolutely nothing that is not worn out or busted. I replaced all brake lines, wheel cylinders, master cylinder and Vacuum booster. Then rebuilt the Holley 4 barrel. Dropped the gas tank and cleaned it out. Got it fired up. I removed the hood, both fenders and radiator support. Now an old guy can work on pulling the engine and transmission.
