For Sale: 1961 Ford F100 in Lavergne, Tennessee

This 1961 Ford F-100 Unibody is a very unique pickup. It has a rare body design, a classic two-tone style, an overdrive transmission, and an upgraded fuel-injected V8 under the hood. It all makes for a custom pickup that was meant to be enjoyed to the fullest.

The fourth-gen F-Series debuted for 1961 with a distinct option. Buyers could get a sleeker unibody style. This was made to specifically go well with the new design that had a full-length sweeping line where the unibody could showcase it nearly seamlessly. And 60+ years later, the clean sheet metal of this example still knows how to showcase it nicely. We like how the light blue paint has the right gloss to show off this distinct body, but it also never gets too fancy for an honest truck style. There's even a spray-in bedliner to keep the bed looking handy. Plus, it has an overall nice style with fresh weather stripping, newer headlights, and bright chrome bumpers. And we especially like the look of the classic white wheels. They go well with the whitewall tires and white roof for a subtle two-tone that's pure classic cruiser cool.

The interior has an attractive and useful style. The updated bench seat has comfy cloth inserts and nicer contouring than stock. It does a good job of adding comfort without getting too fancy for a truck. Other updates like the floor cover and headliner are all about making this fresher while still feeling vintage. Even the classic steering wheel looks good. But as you spot integrated upgrades like the Lokar shifter and center gauge replaced with a full Dakota Digital package, you start to understand that this likes to be more than just a good 'ol truck.

Under the hood is legendary Ford power, but something that comes from decades more advancement. It's a fuel-injected 5.0-liter V8 like the ones found in Fox-body Mustangs. We love these hardy motors, and this one is nicely done with fresh red paint on the valve covers, a serpentine belt, an electric fan, and an MSD coil. You even have headers feeding into the dual exhaust. This still likes to have the classic truck feel going down the road, but with modern touring tires and a four-speed transmission with overdrive, it also knows how to be a real cruiser.

The unibody trucks were only available for a few years, and this is the rare classic Ford pickup that has been upgraded so that you can show off its uniqueness with power and comfort. Call today!!!
