Description

1972 Ford F100 Custom – While Ford’s line of light duty trucks looked to be all new in 1967, it was actually based on the previous generation’s architecture from 1961 through 1966, only with new styling. Prominent features included a pronounced horizontal crease that bisected the bodywork, straight-edged wheel well openings, and a more intricate grille assembly. Powertrain availability continued from the previous year, but in 1968 the V-8 engine options were significantly changed. The 352-cid Y-block was dropped, replaced with 360- and 390-cid V-8s. These mills were FE (Ford-Edsel) architecture engines, the former essentially a destroked 390 for better torque. Models for 1971 made do with minor trim changes, along with the chrome front bumper and bright aluminum grille being standard, ending the era of painted grilles for entry level pickups at Ford. Trim levels were now Custom, Sport Custom, Ranger, Ranger XLT, and the spring special Explorer. The 1972 model year was essentially a carry-over, before the F-Series was replaced by a new generation for 1973.

When we saw the opportunity to buy this 1-owner, California F100 Custom, we jumped on it! The patina is perfect and we could immediately see it’s potential. Knowing that our customer base will most likely be the ones to do a motor swap, we chose to keep our restoration on the cosmetic level. With that in mind, most of the interior was redone as close to original as possible. The windshield, steering wheel, headliner, visors, bench seat, arm rests, rubber flooring, door gaskets, dash cover, and radio are all brand new. We then installed a 3/4″ lowering kit and detailed the underside and engine bay. The previous owner had already upgraded to an aluminum radiator with electric fans and the truck drives very nice. It had two auxiliary tanks at one time but now just runs off the one original tank. If you are in the market for an original paint short bed that runs great and turns heads, this F100 is a match. If you are looking for a base for a Coyote or Godzilla swap, this classic Ford would make the perfect sleeper! Features and options include; 360 V8 (195hp), Auto, 3/4″ Drop, 2wd, Factory A/C, Chrome Grille/Bumpers/Mirrors, Retro Radio, Tire Tools, 15″ Factory Hubcaps, & Thick GT Radial 235/75/R15 Tires!
