Classic Car Overview
This 1972 Ford F-250 Ranger XLT is a remarkably original Bumpside survivor with long-term Colorado history. Powered by a 390 FE V8 paired with a C6 3-speed automatic transmission, this 2WD F-250 retains its original paint, AM radio, and even the original windshield washer system.
According to the seller, the truck was purchased new in Denver in 1972, has been garage-kept throughout its life, and is currently with its second owner. Rather than undergoing a restoration, the truck has been preserved and mechanically maintained, making it an appealing example for enthusiasts who value originality.
The seller currently daily drives the truck between Boulder and Brighton and reports that it has been dependable, capable of towing trailers, comfortable at highway speeds, and well suited to Colorados elevation.
