Vehicle Description
This 1960 Ford F-100 Custom Cab strikes the perfect balance between
great-looking vintage pickup and all the right modern features for
cruising. After all, it mixes a cool classic two-tone presentation
with a convenience of a four-speed stick-shift, front disc brakes,
and even air conditioning. So the truck that you want for its style
is also the one that delivers on substance.
You can tell there was a lot of time and money invested into
looking this good. The two-tone Monte Carlo Red and Corinthian
White is the factory-correct color combo, but it never had this
kind of luster from the factory. The way these colors interweave is
absolutely artful. A crease in the sheetmetal provides the main
dividing line, and this a small miracle on its own, because most of
these trucks were used up as workhorses. But this one is still so
straight and nice that it gives a crisp break between the red and
white. Plus, the red returns on the roof to help outline the
desirable big rear window of this Custom Cab. The two-tone even
extends into the details like the tailgate and wheels w/whitewall
tire package. And speaking of details, you've got to love all the
period-correct pieces like the arrow-style hood ornaments, and the
glossy real wood in the truck bed as well as along the sides.
Inside, this one looks more like Thunderbird than an F-Series. The
custom two-tone seats match the exterior. Plus, the door panels,
dash, and even the steering wheel follows the color scheme to give
this pickup a total uniform presentation that everyone loves to
see. But more than just look cool, this Custom Cab knows how to
stay cool thanks to modern R134a air conditioning. And you'll start
to realize this is a fine place to eat away the miles as your left
hand feels the power steering and your right one comfortably rest
on the versatile four-speed gearstick.
Even the engine bay follows this great red and white theme. But
while you marvel at how well presented the motor is - right down to
the factory decal on the air cleaner - you should also take note of
the power. Ford's 292 cubic-inch V8 is the exact motor you want in
this truck. This Y-block's displacement was the largest Ford
offered in 1960, and so you get a period-correct engine in this
very vintage ride. But it's also powerful enough for you to take
full advantage of the upgraded four-speed manual transmission. Out
on the road, you can tell this one has been given the right
investments to remain smooth. And just to make sure this is a
quality driving experience all the way to the stoplight, you have a
desirable front disc brake upgrade.
A great color-coordinating package that's turn-key ready to cruise
in all seasons. It's hard to find this kind of packaging on a
classic car - and nearly impossible to get in a classic pickup.
That's why you know you need to hurry to grab this unique and
comfortable Ford. Call today!!!
