1976 Ford F150 review from UK and Ireland
"Rusty rocket"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Planetary gears went in the diff. wheelarch, tailgate and bottom of doors rotted through.
General comments?
A big, big truck! too big for the UK really, but good fun. it outdragged my brothers 205 GTi, but 14mpg got annoying after a while. would pull anything and carry anything, a great tool, parts cheap too
best bit was the straight through exhaust so you could hear that lovely V8 rumble.
