Used 1966 Ford F100 for sale in Concord, NC

With its cool patina style and ultra-desirable workhorse motor, this 1966 Ford F-100 is a true lesson in honest endurance.

This is a truck that wears its history with pride. The color combo looks to be the same on the trim tag: Marlin Blue and Wimbledon White. It has a cool look of a coordinated two-tone with white on the roof, grille, bumpers, and wheels. But that's not what first caught your eye. The most interesting part of this pickup is the patina that looks like it was well-earned over a life of getting the job done. And that fits the personality perfectly. The bed floor has been reinforced with a steel sheet and there's still a trailer ball on the rear. But the body still has the straight and complete appearance of a well-respected friend. In fact, the trim tag also tells us this was first sent to the Charlotte area over a half-century ago. So this just feels like the local truck that has been doing good work for generations.

The colors of the exterior continue inside, but just like the exterior, it's the level of authenticity. After all, you may replace the tow on the bench seat with an easy aftermarket part or maybe add a radio. But maybe you also know how cool it is to leave this one like it is because there are cool details like the classic gear and lightning insignia on the floor mat. Plus, your essentials are working, like the speedometer, wipers, and heater. So there's some real charm in its honesty.

One place we do know that's upgraded is the engine bay. It's nothing drastic, and so the inline-six could pass for stock. But this has been upgraded to the 300 cubic-inch unit. Those who know trucks will recognize this as the powerhouse with a nearly indestructible reputation. Plus, the column-shifted three-speed manual transmission is geared to keep up with traffic. So this Ford is still ready to eat up the road miles, and get to work.

This F-100 can be an excellent restoration candidate, but just as it is, there will be crowds at the car show amazed at how great this survivor wears its history. Will you be the one to write the next chapter? Call now!
