1982 Ford FT800

The 1982 Ford FT800 is part of the medium-duty F-Series trucks, redesigned in 1980, characterized by its trapezoidal front grille and separate front fenders, which share the cab design with Ford pickup trucks. It is available in two-door standard cab and four-door crew cab configurations. For 1982, engine options include gasoline V8s such as the 6.1L (370 cubic inch) and 7.0L (429 cubic inch), along with diesel alternatives like the Caterpillar 3208 and Detroit Diesel 8.2L V8.
