This 1987 Ford F-150 is far from your average classic pickup, it's a purpose-built street machine that combines aggressive performance with unmistakable 1980s truck styling. Finished in sleek black over a gray interior, this F-150 delivers an intimidating presence backed by a seriously upgraded big-block powerplant. Built with performance in mind from top to bottom, this truck offers the kind of raw muscle and attitude that makes it impossible to ignore.
At the heart of the build is a massive 460 cubic-inch V8, upgraded with a steel crank, Crane camshaft, and legendary 429 Cobra Jet-style Camel Back heads for enhanced airflow and performance. Feeding the engine is a Holley 880 Street Avenger carburetor, while MSD ignition ensures strong, reliable spark delivery. Doug Thorley headers help the big-block breathe freely, producing the kind of deep, aggressive exhaust note that only a built Ford V8 can deliver.
Backing the engine is an Art Carr-built automatic transmission, a respected name in high-performance driveline components, paired with a 3500 stall converter for hard launches and strong acceleration. A B&M ratchet shifter adds a race-inspired feel inside the cabin, while the narrowed Ford 9-inch rear end with 4.10 gears ensures the truck can effectively put its power to the pavement. This drivetrain combination creates a brutal, street-ready setup designed for straight-line performance and maximum fun behind the wheel.
The exterior retains the clean, squared-off styling that made the eighth-generation F-Series trucks so iconic. The black paint gives the truck a sinister look that perfectly complements its performance-focused build, while the stance and drivetrain upgrades hint at the serious power underneath. Inside, the gray interior maintains a clean and functional appearance, offering a classic truck atmosphere with just the right amount of performance attitude.
Classic performance trucks continue to grow in popularity, and builds like this stand out thanks to their combination of vintage style and serious horsepower. This F-150 delivers the best of both worlds: timeless Ford truck design paired with a thoroughly upgraded big-block setup capable of turning heads and commanding attention wherever it goes.
Whether you're looking for a unique weekend cruiser, a standout show truck, or a tire-shredding street machine, this 1987 Ford F-150 offers unmistakable character, proven performance components, and old-school American muscle in one unforgettable package.

Garage Kept Motors, LLC specializes in classic and specialty online auto sales.
For our consignors, we are the only auto brokers that offer a Transparent Sale Disclosure. This means, when a car sells, we provide an exact copy of the Bill of Sale. We do this so our clients know exactly who bought their car, where it went, and most importantly how much we sold it for. No funny business.
For our buyers, our vehicles are listed on the Internet, with over 100 photos, including undercarriage pictures, and walk-around videos of the vehicles running plus a narrative-style write-up of the cars history and features. Our international exposure allows us to sell cars across the globe, and we sell a majority of them out of state and overseas. We deliver honesty and consistency in our photos and descriptions, a “no surprise” approach, so buyers, both near and far, can invest with confidence sight unseen. We are not a gallery. Vehicles can be seen locally by appointment as potential buyers are given our undivided attention.
