You are looking at a 1960 F100 Short Bed Pickup with the big back window! It has a 5.4 Liter V8 and 4R100 automatic trans. Clean Florida title. The paint code on the VIN indicates a two-tone truck in Monte Carlo Red and Corinthian White. Please look at the build sheet below. A lot of work went into this truck, but it needs more in my opinion. If I was keeping this I would invest in IFS for sure.

THE GOOD: Read the build sheet above. That's all nice stuff! This thing moves out and sounds fantastic!

THE BAD: Steering sucks. It goes in a straight line, but it's a bitch to turn tight corners. The original steering box feels worn and I think the tie rod is almost rubbing the oil pan. There is some kind of resistance or binding that needs solving. It bump steers. Drag link angle is not great and I started a discussion on The Hamb where several members offered good solutions. I can send you that link. Having said that, I do drive it around town and I'm not scared to do so. It needs IFS. Get rid of those crappy lowering leafs. If you ever drove a manual steer truck before, please be advised that this one is worse, lol!

Dash lights are intermittent. There is a bad ground somewhere. Sometimes the gauges light up a beautiful orange at night, other times they don't light up. Fuel gauge is not accurate. There are dings, dents and repainted bits. No headliner. The brake booster makes a hiss when you press the brake, but it does hold good vacuum, even overnight. It's just an annoying sound. No AC! Holes in the firewall! The body gaps are all over the place and need adjusting. The passenger towing mirror has a plastic mirror in it, kinda like a fun house. Needs replacing with a real glass mirror.

No international bidders please. I can help arrange East coast shipping. Otherwise, shipping will be entirely your responsibility. I am available to meet shippers most days. Nothing ships until the money is in my hand.

Thanks for looking. Support trusted sellers. Thanks, Sam :)
