For Sale: 1966 Ford F100 in Ft Worth, Texas for sale in Fort Worth, TX
Vehicle Description If you're a truck fan, you literally have thousands of choices.
You can choose something like everyone else, or you can go a little off the beaten path with this bright red 1966 Ford F-100.
This is one of those trucks that gets everything right, from the burly small block V8 under the hood, to the shiny red paint to the comfortable tan cabin inside.
Priced right and looking clean, this Ford truck is ready to turn some heads.
First of all, this final-year 4th generation F-Series truck really looks great.
The regular cab/short bed combination was rather popular back in the day, and it remains the one to own if you're looking for a fun truck that can double as a work truck.
Ford took a conservative path with their F-100, but between the shiny red paint and some well-chosen brightwork, it has a very detailed look.
The driver-quality paint was refinished a few years ago and still looks pretty good, not perfect, but nice enough to get appreciative second glances on the road and show proudly on weekends.
The shiny chrome grille dresses things up out front, as does the big bumper just below out, while any trim or badging was deleted from the profile to let all that red finish do the talking.
We love that decision because the unique sheetmetal design of the '66 really shows when there's no extra bling in the way, with sculpted front fenders, swooping body lines, and straight bed out back all working together to make for an incredibly interesting truck.
They did leave the chrome hood ornament on up front, along with the bright trim around the front windshield and the bright mirrors and door handles at the flanks that add extra contrast against the red paint.
Out back the rear bumper was swapped in favor of a smoothed roll pan, and that custom look plays perfectly with the flashy alloy wheels.
Inside the bed was finished with a black spray-in bedliner and a heavy-duty mat, which means it looks super clean but is also equipped to handle hard work, just like it was way back in 1966.
That serious tan interior is fairly recent and looks very much the way the factory might have done it.
Heavy-duty vinyl keeps an OEM look but elevates this truck above its siblings, and has been fitted with matching tan door panel inserts, newer-looking tan carpets, and a finished headliner, all of which contribute to the fresh feel inside.
Factory gauges in that simple instrument panel should look familiar to anyone who has driven an early '60s Ford, and a trio of auxiliary dials provide a more complete view of the engine.
A stock 3-spoke steering wheel give you plenty of leverage on the tires and looks great (although it would look even better if the center cap was sourced and reinstalled), and the T-handle shifter jutting out of the floorboard manages the C6 3-speed automatic transmission below.
An AM/FM/Cassette head unit was installed in the dash, although it's due for an upgrade if you want tunes, and newer seatbelts were also installed to add a modicum of safety for the driver and passenger alike.
With a big 460 cubic inch V8 under the hood of this relatively lightweight pickup, performance is lively.
Whether it's blasting from red light to red light or hitting the road for a cross-country trip, this powertrain in this truck delivers.
Ford Blue paint, dress-up that include Holley valve covers and a chrome Edelbrock air cleaner, and a mostly OEM look mean that you can treat this truck as more than just a workhorse.
Long-tube header feed into a Flowmaster dual exhaust system that sounds suitably muscular for the look and terminates just ahead of the rear axle.
Slick 'Level 8' 18-inch aluminum wheels lend the truck a sporty demeanor and are fitted with beefy 245/45/18 performance radials that fill the wheel wells perfectly.
Not like all the others, this F-100 is a really nice truck that'll surprise more than a few performance car owners and is still happy to put in a hard day's work.
