1976 Ford F100 Short Bed Pickup For consignment, a 1976 Ford F100 short bed pickup with a title verified 74,777 actual miles. Quintessentially American and simple in its boxy in its profile, this '76 is a good looking rare find that hasn't been modified out of originality. Exterior Named for the most prestigious tennis tournament in the world where the players are required to wear white, Wimbledon White is ironically off white. In dim lighting, the yellow undertones of the paint are evident but in sunlight, it's all white. The split grille of the 1976 trucks was slightly revised and black accents around the headlights, while Ford is spelled out in the gap above. Marker lights are above the headlights and in 1978, this would be reversed, and the round headlights would be squared. Our paint here really shines and is complemented by the black window trim and the padded side trim that runs the length of the truck and its black cushion prevents dings. Tail lights lack any trim and sit flush with the body while the embossed Ford on the tailgate is painted black. The chrome and metal on the truck are in great shape and the dog dish hubcaps on the gray painted 15-inch steel wheels look just right. The bed is clean, unlined and uncovered, and painted in gleaming body color white. Imperfections include some touched up blemishes, Bondo air bubbles and roughness through the paint, and various chips and drips. Interior Perfect red molded plastic and vinyl door panels framed in Wimbledon White provide the proverbial red carpet welcoming you into the cab. There you'll find a red bench seat with white inserts with stitched pattern, looking factory fresh and virtually unused. The steering wheel, the most handled piece in the truck, shows decent patina in the form of cracking plastic and shares the column with the shifter and gear indicator, arched over the column behind a plexiglass window. Keeping with the boxy theme, the dash holds three square gauges while the center houses the heater controls and AM radio, which in 1976, was still the resource for music stations. The remainder of the dash is topped by a red cover and painted below to match the exterior body. Textured black vinyl floor covers look new and the white headliner has a dimple or two but is intact. Drivetrain Just a notch below showroom condition is the 300ci inline 6 cylinder engine under the hood. Our consignor states it's been rebuilt and was originally rated at 101 horsepower, fed fuel by a 1-barrel carburetor and moved through the gears via a C4 3-speed automatic transmission. A Ford 9" is in the back and houses 3.70 gears while power brakes, disc in front, and drums in the rear, are employed to slow and stop the truck. Undercarriage We find driver quality conditions underneath, generally clean, with typical surface rust and some grime build up by wheel components. We note some invasive rust on underside panels and inner rocker panels and body hangers. On a positive note, we do not see any leaking fluids. While up on our lift, we do note significant rust on the door bottoms. A single exhaust meets a stock style muffler then emits out a tailpipe behind the right rear wheel. Suspension is composed of radius arm and coil springs up front with leaf springs in the back. Drive-Ability With a push of the pedal, we send a little gas to the 1-barrel, turn the key, and she starts right up! Along the loop, we find a comfortable cab with great visibility, decent power if you're not trying to race, and a smooth rolling chassis. Everything works as it should but there will be no tunes or talk radio today as the radio is inoperable. If this was furniture, they would call it "mid-century" and 1976, the Bicentennial year, does seem like a long time ago. Here's a truck that's survived, has some scars that a bit of plastic surgery can fix. But you can drive it as is and enjoy a truck that shows very well and does not have the typical small block Chevy transplant! Hallelujah!
