1978 custom had that style grille but with round headlights. Ranger, xlt, and Lariat had square. In 1979, they were all square regardless of trim.
Amazing how many people don't know that little detail.
I can see myself now. Burnin down them backroads, cruisin through little towns, my wife sittin next to me, our hands out the window blastin Brooks n Dunn’s song Hillbilly Deluxe!! Man my new dream truck right here!!
Now that’s a sweet truck! You can hear the bias ply ground hawg tires shaking your voice as you drive it around haha
What a beautiful Ford F-250 pick up truck. ❤
You can't say enough about Vanguard; they are the absolute best!!! Their quality is unmatched ✊
The more and more I see these new, almost fully electric trucks. The more I miss the old schools. Man, I havent seen groundhogs or super swampers thornburgs since 99! Had those on my 81 & 85 broncos. Miss those trucks! Respect the work on this one!
Yes square headlight same as the bronco of the same years. BEAUTIFUL!
Beautiful red paint! Those ground hawg tires are total throw back and period correct for that rig 👍
The tires are as much a classic as the rest of the truck is. Absolutely beautiful.
I loved my 38"" "Ground Hawgs" on my 1979 F-350.
Damn Great Tire in the mud.
They cleaned off nicely going forward for traction and dug like a crazy in reverse.
My truck use to throw shovel sized chunks of mud thirty feet in the air.
Sad, they are not made anymore.
Why yall scared to post asking price?
All of our prices are posted on our website! All you have to do to see the price is clink the link at the top of the description!
They’re not scared. Just go on their website and you will see it right there or you would except that it’s already sold.
If you were a business owner you would understand why their prices are expensive. They have to make money somehow. You just have to appreciate that they actually sell high quality vehicles. But you have to ask yourself would you rather have a new F150 Raptor or this classic truck. These trucks are just going up and up in value. I can tell you this I’ve been watching Vanguard motors for nearly 10 years and if you would of bought from them 10 years ago you would’ve paid a 1/4 of the price compared to todays prices. Theres a lot of people out there with money I can tell you people in Japan or even in the Middle East would pay these premium prices. If you were to build this truck you would spend over 100k alone not to mention it’ll probably be in the shop for 2-5 years if you’re lucky 😂
I haven't been on the site but that machine is $70-90k if I'm low I mean no disrespect to anyone who put hardwork into her.
The balls on people asking 100k plus for these trucks
Sweet ol' Ford! Congradulations to the new owner.
If you have to ask , you probable can't afford it , and still have to spring for some aftermarket Air Conditioning , Super nice build thanks Vanguard Motor Sales
Man that is nice! I have a '78 F250 4x4 just like that but no where near as nice. I kept the '77 style grille because I was sick of the people arguing about what was "proper" for '78 so I swapped the Bronco/fishmouth grille for a '77
You are right about not being able to do highway speeds so on mine I ditched the C6 for an E4OD and now I get some strange looks keeping up with traffic at 70+mph! Oh and I didnt know the Denman Ground Hawg tire was back in production so I Googled it just now to find out that in 2017 Interco started making them again! I think I'll throw a set of those in my truck when the Baja Claws wear out. Thanks for showing us this sweet ride!
Very nice looking truck.
You asked about round verses square headlights. This is what I was told years ago. Regular leaded gas fazed out mid 78.
First half of year was okay . Second half was not. To keep the difference round headlights was the first half. Square headlight was the second. 78 1/2
Had smog pump,smaller gas filler for unleaded gas not to get regular gas pump nozzle. Catalyst converter on exhaust.
All can be taken off And still run.(gas filler was beaten out to receive regular gas being fazed out)
78 round headlight
78 1/2 square headlight
FYI
I just can't imagine taking this off-road. Love everything about it and built like a tank.
I'm not a Ford guy, but yes, in 78 you could get either round or rectangle headlights. Beautiful truck
Wow ... that Paint looks Flawless...
Superb as ever. Love the channel ❤️
Beautiful truck! Awesome
I kinda knew that this beauty wasn't going to last long. What a beauty!
Love that body style!!
I love hot rod cars and had a few,I've also had some raced up 4x4s . Two lifted with massive tires . I would love this truck more than the car. I'd drive too.
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME
Square lights in 78 were from the xlt model, the round ones, from the custom truck…79 both of the models were square lights
One Sweet Truck !
Sold Sold Sold ❤
My dad has a 74 f350 same color, with a dump bed. 460ci. That truck is to dam beautiful to take off roading.
That is a nice truck!!!
omg! so gorgeous truck!😍
In 78 the custom trim level had round lights and the upper trim levels had the square ones with black around the lights. I think the Ranger XLT Lariets had the fully chomed bezells in 78 and 79
78 and 79 all had square lights. I had a 77 with the round lights and a split grill.
Beautiful truck!❤
She looks perfect!!
Its a beast looks awesome👍
I owned one with a Larriet package. The early 78 had round headlights and the latter 78 had rectangle.
My dad has a '79 f100 stepside 2wd that he's had since new when he got it in highschool. Id love to get a 78/79 4x4
I agree. It's gorgeous. But how much?
Old friend of mine had one just like it that thing was cool
Yep late 78 to 79 had them😊
Yep you can tell it has ground hawgs. I had them back in the day. Took 2 miles for them to get round again.
Sold too! Well done VMS!
Thank you!
78 rangers had square headlights. 78 customs had round headlights

Interco makes ground hawgs they are called cobalt Mt. I have a set of 35*12.5*17 on my 4Runner oh and they are radial
Perfection ❤
Ótimo vídeo, parabéns
I always heard that in 1978 you could get the chrome square headlights. In 1979 you got the black square headlights. Just a little piece of information that I got from an old man about 35 years ago. Rip Buck Brown.
Its sold. what a beauty!! How much did it sell for???
Какая красота! На такой заезжать на бездорожье нельзя, жалко испачкать даже.
Very nice truck!
Besides the tires.. the first thing I'd take off and throw in the nearest garbage can is the Holly carb.. and get and Edelbrock 800 CFM With Electric Choke,
Beautiful Truck🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wish i had J Leno type money. So many awesome vehicles I'd like to have.

Yes square headlights were put on 78 F series probably was a midyear production minor change.😅👍💪🚛

Yes I had a 1978 f250 that some scumbag stole from me in New Jersey 6 months after I bought it. And yes it had square head lights. I miss that truck. First new vehicle I bought
That truck and I are the same age, but it is definitely in better condition then I am.
What tire size? 38's since you mentioned 37's for more user-friendly driving.
78 and 79 was the only years of rectangular head lights....in 78 had the black frame and 79 the came chrome with xlt package
😮beautiful 😮
What a beautiful truck. What did it sell for? Went to the site and its already sold 😢
It’s ready for Monster Jam! 😂
Got the dual rancho RS 9000 series popping out the front oh yeah baby
My pops bought one in 1979 we were getting ready to leave and a semi was coming down the road with my dad's truck grayish silver tone painted high boy pulled a lot of truck out of the mud 😂
My ideal truck 🛻 ❤
Yes they changed from round to square headlights just as everyone did
Nice!
Now that's a truck. It is beautiful.
Screw the new model for 90k, if I could even get one I'd use the money for a truck just like that but Standard.

Ground hawgs😢 rip. I miss those tires😮💨
Someone's going to regret having that ignition box under the hood like that.

Love the truck but hate the chrome trim on the sides.
Yeah I had a 78 250 had square head lights on the door it was stamped 78 and a half

My brother and I had a 79 and it had square headlights.
Yep need that lol they should havw kept making them that way.. so what's the price on this beautiful truck
I had a 78 with square head lights
It would look much better stock height
Just wondering , how much did it sale for ?
Interco still makes ground hog, under the name Cobalt… limited sizes 35/37/38.5 I think
