1971 Ford F250 Highboy Crew Cab — Boxwood Green Restoration

1971 Ford F250 4x4 Crew Cab — Boxwood Green

This beautifully restored 1971 Ford F250 Factory 4x4 Crew Cab represents one of the rarest and most desirable configurations of Ford's legendary Bumpside trucks. With only 664 factory four-wheel-drive crew cabs built in 1971, these trucks are increasingly difficult to find, especially in their original configuration.

Finished in the iconic Boxwood Green, this truck underwent a comprehensive restoration at Classic Crew Cabs, with an emphasis on preserving its original character while incorporating carefully selected upgrades to improve comfort and drivability.

Under the hood sits a fully rebuilt 360 FE V8, equipped with a Holley 500 CFM two-barrel carburetor. Power is delivered through the original-style NP435 four-speed manual transmission and a traditional four-wheel-drive drivetrain featuring a Dana 44 front axle and Dana 60 rear axle.

One of the highlights of this restoration is the OEM-style green interior, carefully brought back to its factory appearance using period-correct colors and factory-style upholstery materials. The result is an interior that captures the authentic look and feel of a 1971 Ford crew cab.

While maintaining its vintage appearance, this truck benefits from several modern conveniences, including upgraded electric power steering, power-assisted drum brakes, air conditioning, and a RetroSound Bluetooth audio system. These improvements make the truck more enjoyable to drive without compromising its classic character.

The finished product is a rare example of Ford crew cab history, combining the unmistakable styling of the 1967–1972 Bumpside generation with the craftsmanship and attention to detail that define our restorations.

At Classic Crew Cabs, we believe the best restorations respect the history of these trucks while making them capable of being driven and enjoyed for generations to come. This Boxwood Green 1971 F250 is a perfect example of that philosophy.
