1980 Ford F-150 Overview
1980 saw the redesign of Ford's flagship F-series trucks, with a newly angular profile. The 1980 Ford F-150 once again offered buyers the choice of a Windsor V-8 engine, along with the Cleveland V8 and a 300-cubic-inch straight-6. Aside from that, buyers found little change underneath the square-shouldered new body; the 80 Ford F150 pickup delivered the same rugged reliability as in past years.
The 1980 Ford F150 shipped off the line in several trims (Sport, Ranger, Ranger XLT, Lariat, and Custom), with a range of cab, bed, and tonneau options ideal for farm, ranch, and other workhorse uses. (The supercab extended crewcab was available only in styleside models, but fleetside choices included both 2-door and 4-door cabs.)
Tough enough to go off-road, the 80 Ford F-150 offers plenty of power and muscle to today's tuners and project enthusiasts. Its solid and durable nature, along with its affordable price, adds up to a strong fanbase for the 1980 Ford 150 even today.

bobwjr I have a 1980 f150 custom 4x4 step side with a 351M. I am getting a lot of frame flexing when turning wheels side to side.
