1976 Ford F-150 Ranger XLT Regular Cab 4x2 8-foot Styleside box — 7.5-liter V8

Ford's 1976 Pickups brochure body table lists this F-150 Regular Cab 4x2 8-foot Styleside box; its styling section identifies Ranger XLT as a trim level, and its engine table limits the F-150 4x2 range to the 300-cu.-in. six and 360-, 390-, and 460-cu.-in. V8s. The equipment table documents manual and Cruise-O-Matic categories. This page preserves those factory categories without inventing a specific gearbox pairing or promoting the Decor and Luxury option groups into models.
