Ford F-100 390 V8 1966
General description :
GORGEOUS PAINT & INTERIOR, BRUTAL 390 BIG BLOCK, C6, PS, PB W/DISC, SUPER CLEAN!
Big V8 power, a glossy presentation, and an obtainable price... you can read on for all details on this 1966 Ford F-100 Custom Cab, but you already know this is one hot deal.
Ford did an amazing job in '66 with a bright chrome grille, little fender flare in the front, power dome hood, and a sweeping line of brightwork that runs from the front all the way down through the styleside bed. Painted a deep black with a modern clearcoat, this has stellar appearance when the sunlight hits it. Plus, there's an aerodynamic bed cover, side pipe exhaust, bright chrome bumpers, and iconic Crager SS wheels. So is this a pickup or a custom street rod? Well considering under the soft tonneau is a steel truck bed that's textured ready for a Home Deport Run, we'd say this truck looks like it's always ready for work AND play.
Open the door and you'll find a bench seat covered in a cool red and black pattern that helps set the mood for the entire interior. The two-tone is also on the door panels and dash to continue this sporty attitude. In fact, with the racing seatbelts, sports steering wheel, and full Sunpro auxiliary gauge package (including large tach,) this has a truly competition-inspired atmosphere. But just because this is a performance pickup, doesn't mean you give up comfortable features. The Ididit tilt steering column, cup holders, and AM/FM/CD stereo let you know this is a truck that can be enjoyed anytime.
You'll immediately spot your favorite upgrade the moment you see the engine bay. That 390 cubic-inch V8 looks great, and you know it's a big displacement because the valve covers announce it so well. The whole presentation is tidy and mean, and this V8 has the components to back it up. It's filled with go-fast goodies like a large Quick Fuel 750 CFM four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and RV cam. Plus, you have the right supporting components like the Pertronix ignition and aluminum radiator. The long tube headers add even more power as they also contribute to the thunder of the 3-inch dual exhaust. Making sure this monster power gets to the ground is a TCI Street Fighter C6 three-speed automatic transmission. This feeds the 4.22 rear end for power takeoffs. You get a muscle car like power, and so that's why you also have upgrades like power steering, wide BF Goodrich T/As, and front disc brakes to easily keep it all under control. There are even new shocks and bushings to keep this performance pickup feeling crisp.
Slick, powerful, and absolutely memorable – this is the custom truck you've always wanted. So don't let it go into someone else's garage. Call today!!!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
