When you are talking about the Ford Truck, you are talking about one of the most famous and important muscles cars in the history of the United States. This massive supercar has had its inception back in the year of 1964 and when it was launched, it practically redefined what a muscle car really is. There were millions of people at that time to be very much dazed about it and this was reflected in the sales that the car has managed to reach.

Even more front bumpers were now required by the federal government in order to have low speed shunts sustained without taking any damage. Even though other car manufacturers out there coped with this new requirement, their cars ended looking a bit odd, but that was not the case with the new 1973 Ford Truck. This model really did well and it managed to have some improved looks compared to other versions, even though it had to wear the front bumpers now.

Even though when it comes to the Sprint package things were left way behind and no one would remember it, there was still something that the base models could pick up on now, and this was the Mach 1 which came through an optional Décor Group and it was stacked at $51. Also for the first time, there was a twin scoop hood available for it.

For it there was a dual tone paint used which was a matte silver or black finish and if you wanted that on your little beast, you needed to pay a mere $35. Another thing that was still down to the optional level was the Ram Air hood (which was functional) and it was sold with the 2 barrel 251 for the mere $58. Seems now that Ford Truck Tuning wasn't needed anymore.

Tires were also very much taken into consideration and the polished aluminum wheels were now sold for a price that ranged from $111 to $142, successfully replacing the old Magnum 500 steel styled tires.

But when it comes to the engine Truck had to stick with the regulations and thus it ended up to have its engines revamped. This lead to a power decrease which no one really wanted, but there wasn't anything to be done regarding it. As a result to this, the 2 barrel engine went down to 173 HP and the 4 barrel version went to just 259. It wasn't much, but for many this was something serious. You wouldn't have to consider Ford Truck Tuning with such a beast.
