AutoHunter Spotlight: 1962 Ford F100 Pickup

-

Featured on AutoHunter, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this 1962 Ford F100 pickup.  

This 1962 Ford F100 has the heart of a 37,000-mile Crown Victoria and received a complete rotisserie restoration. Power comes from a 4.6-liter Modular V8 paired with a 4R70W four-speed automatic transmission, and upgrades include a Vintage Air A/C system, power-assisted four-wheel disc brakes, Ridetech coilovers, power windows and seats, and more. Painted Habanero Orange Metallic over a black vinyl interior, this F100 is being sold in Arizona with restoration documentation and a clear title.

The Habanero Orange exterior of this F100 was applied during a frame-off restoration in 2021. Features include black bumpers and accents, a forward-tilting hood, smoothed bed seams, a smoothed tailgate, a rear rollpan, Frenched taillights, and a dual exhaust system.

Gloss black 18-inch wheels were sourced from a 2014 Ford Mustang GT and were wrapped in new 235/50-sized Pirelli P-Zero tires in April 2023.

Cab upgrades include late-model black vinyl bucket seats, matched to the door panels and carpeting. Features include power windows, cruise control, a tilt-adjustable steering column, and a custom center console with cup holders.

Instruments include a 160-mph speedometer, an 8K-rpm tachometer, and auxiliary gauges for fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The digital odometer displays 1,236 miles, which the seller states is reflective of mileage accrued post-restoration. True mileage on the chassis is not known.

The 4.6-liter Modular V7 was sourced from a 37K-mile 2003 Ford Crown Victoria along with a 4R70W four-speed automatic transmission. The engine bay has been upgraded with a color-matched firewall, an engine cover, and an electric fan. Service included a recent oil change.

The boxed chassis has been powder coated and uses a Ford Crown Victoria independent front suspension system. Steering is power-assisted, and stopping power comes from power four-wheel disc brakes. Equipment includes Fat Man Fabrications control arms and Ridetech coilovers.

Restoration documents are included with the sale.

The auction for this 1962 Ford F100 ends on Wednesday, May 24, 2023, at 2:30 p.m. (PDT)
