1968 Ford F-250 Ranger Camper Special


1968 marked the second year model of the fifth generation of Ford's F-series pickup trucks. Available trim levels were the base truck, "Custom Cab", and the relatively deluxe "Ranger".

New to the engine lineup, and under the hood of this '68 Sky View Blue & Wimbledon White two-tone Ranger, was the FE big block 390 V-8. With a two-barrel carburetor and an 8.6:1 compression ratio, it was rated at 255 SAE gross horsepower.

This F-250 is a Camper Special, which came with a heavy-duty alternator, heavy-duty radiator, and wiring hookups in the bed for a camper.

It was photographed in September of 2021 using a Canon EOS 7D and an EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM zoom lens.
