Description of 1963 Ford F-100 |
This is a VERY RARE. only built THREE years. Ford F100 UNIBODY pick up truck. It is unique in its design. with an integrated truck bed and cab. not separated as most trucks are. Ford also utilized a very cool. subtle wrap-around rear window when designing this truck. Why Ford chose such a risky design direction for its flagship pickup is the result of several factors. There's the ever-present matter of cost – the unibody truck required fewer stampings. fewer welds and a less complicated path through the assembly plant's paint shop. Then there was packaging. Eliminating the gap between the bed and the cab allowed a larger cargo loading area. The wrap window was an option but very few were built due to fact that is was more geared towards people living in the city who wasn't going to be throwing logs and rocks in the bed and trying to keep up with space age look of the era. so rare in fact that one totally restored to RESTO-MOD fashion sold at Barrett Jackson for over $80. 00. I'm not expecting anything close to that LOL but there is that kind of potential if one was so inclined to put that kind of time into it. This truck is as I bought it 3 years ago and has been stored in a Climate controlled dry warehouse. It is started regularly and the oil has been changed 4 times since I've owned it and I havent put 300 miles on it. ut oil breaks down with age so I just change it for peace of mind. It has been Lowered with lowereing blocks and the rear axel has been flipped I"m guessing 3 to 4 inches front and rear so when you hit a bump you know it. It will need an alignment because it was never done when they lowered it. It has 17 inch American Racing wheels and new tires on it and the wheel wheels have been tubbed to make room for the rubber again this truck is exactly the way I bought it and was told that the motor was rebuilt 11000 miles prior to me buying it. I don't have the time to pay it the attention I wanted to when I bought it so it's just time to let someone else have the fun. Bid to win because you will not find these in this shape and this rare. Any questions just ask. More Pictures available upon request. |
