| description | I got this some time ago on ebay and just restored it as best I could, the major flaw is that the front part of the body, near the front grill is broken off on each side, and I couldnt find an old Blackfoot body to do the repairs, so I just built it anyway, It came with period Futaba radio gear and speed controller, everything was tested and works great, so I basicly have a decent Ford F150 runner, that and some decals I had in my spares decal collection... even though it isn't perfect, It is all original and I really like this truck !!! Thanks for looking

Excellent Dan............only asked as I have a spare..
Timecmdr-All fixed up and good to go, see last pic !!!
Very nice original set-up.... great looking F150.. I'm repairing my Ranger at the moment. I takes a bit work but look great once done..
Nice resto Dan, did you manage to get the rear panel or is the rear passenger side taillight still A.W.O.L
Great work on the restore
Looks great now!!! Very nice Dan
Didn't some one sell repair sections for these ?. They made a mold & selling them . May have to get the brain thinking . Any way this looks fantastic . Nice job . I have always wanted one of those humped batteries .
She came up a treat
Crash-The Bed is actually painted Tamiya Tan...Looks better in person, my camera kinda sucks...LOL
That looks very tidy. Ashame about the front wings I think folks call them, but it is the most broken part on both the Ranger and the Blackfoot. Better styrene artists than I have been able to repair them perfectly, just in case you ever change your mind and want to do that too. I just don't seem to remember their names. From the last photo, looks like someone disguised it as as Blackfoot. I know I will need another steering set of plastics and possibly some steering rods if I plan on driving mine much when I can start on it, but I still need to nick that SRB chassis off you. BTW, what color is that bed top painted??? Racing white or off white or what??? Thanks for sharing and 'DIGGIN' that radio man, truly vintage.
Resto looks real good, and like the remote transmitter! That's true vintage!
nice work
WOW Top work
