1979 Ford F-Series Indy Pace Truck
Naturally, Ford wasn’t going to be left out of the fray when it came to offering a unique truck in the 1970s. They too offered a jazzed-up Indy Pace Truck, the 1979 Ford F-Series Indy Pace Truck was very similar to the GMC offering but it had that blue oval touch to it. The difference with the Ford version of the Indy package was that they offered it on every trim level of the F-150. This meant that you could get every possible option with your Indy Pace Truck (via Motor Trend).
All in all, the Ford Indy Pace Truck was just as unique as the GM offerings and it gave you a bit of luxury that wasn’t usually seen on these things. The Ford Indy Pace truck continued to build on the growing market of high-end pickup trucks. From the comfortable interior and the unique exterior paint job to the increased performance under the hood, this truck was night and day different than what had been on the market previously.
