1975 Ford F150 | Hughenden Valley, Buckinghamshire

A 1975 Ford F150, from the Dentside generation of Ford's F-Series pickups, named for the long recessed line along the body side. The F150 joined the range in 1975 as a higher-payload half-ton, and these trucks are liked for pairing work-truck honesty with a comfortable cab. This one is blue with a white interior, a pale cab set inside a bold painted body. It has a 6.4-litre petrol engine, seats four and is in very good condition. It is left-hand drive: the driver sits on the kerb side and the front passenger steps out on the road side, which gives the cab an American feel. The truck is a broad-shouldered piece of 1970s America. Its long flanks and open bed suit Americana, farm and ranch scenes in film and photography, with space to dress the back for the story. Advertising and music video crews get a period American backdrop, and at an event it can anchor a 1970s display. Rustic and country weddings are a good fit too. The truck is based in Hughenden Valley, Buckinghamshire.
