Production of the fourth generation of Ford F-Series trucks ran from the
1962 through 1966 model years, and you'll still see these sturdy trucks
working for a living after a half-century. Today's find appeared in a Denver
self-service wrecking yard, with a solid-looking body and camper shell
still attached.
The transmission is a rugged four-speed with floor shifter, but some
junkyard shopper purchased the engine before I showed up with my camera.
In 1966, the engine choices for the F-100 were the 240- and 300-cubic-inch
straight-sixes (making 129 and 150 horsepower, respectively) and a 352-cubic
-inch V8 rated at 172 horses. This truck still has V8 exhaust manifolds
under the hood, but that doesn't mean its most recent engine was a 352; most
old pickups seem to have received at least one engine swap during their
lives.
The F-Series went from a solid front axle to a double-I-beam independent
front suspension for 1965, so this truck would have been a bit smoother on
the fire trails than its predecessors.
This is the last model year of the fourth-gen F-Series; for 1967, a
generation of much more modern-looking Ford trucks hit the street.
Someone did an application of body filler on this F-100, prior to its forced
retirement, but never got around to sanding and painting. | W***n
