Crown Vic Swap: 1972 Ford F100

It is entirely possible to swap an entire Ford F100 body onto a late model Ford Crown Victoria frame, such that you end up with a car that looks like a classic Ford pickup, but drives like a P71 interceptor, which isn't much better than a classic pickup, but rack-n-pinion and fuel injected V8 is just a seriously complex body-frame swap away...OR you could buy one that is already done. Find this 1972 Ford F100 offered for $9995 near Portland, OR via craigslist. Tip from Rock On!

The Red Baron: 1967 Ford F100

Who says a classic pickup truck needs a beefy V8 to be cool?  Errr...well...probably a lot of folk, but they'd be wrong to ignore the appeal of a slant-6 mated to a simple 3-speed manual.  Find this 1967 Ford F100 offered for $3,500 in Little Orleans, MD via craigslist. Tip from Jeff S.

Vermin SUV: 2001 Ford Explorer Rat Rod

Despite what owners think, Rat Rodding isn't anything new.  In 1972, Rod & Custom Magazine dedicated a whole issue to the "beater," aka the low-budget alternative to slick customized cars. Few Rat Rods of today fit into that category as many are highly customized and labor intensive works of art. Look hard enough though, and you can still find home grown examples of acquired taste.  Find this 2001 Ford Explorer Rat Rod for sale in Nanaimo, BC Canada for $3,500 CDN via Kijiji.

Essential Truckin': 1970 Ford F100

by Al -- YOU NEED A TRUCK! Let's say you need to pick up a dishwasher from your local big box store tonight...What are you gonna do? Are you gonna fold down the seats in your wife’s Sport (not) Utility vehicle? No...it wouldn’t fit in the scrunched down roof and bulky fold down rear seats “SUV” anyway… YOU NEED A TRUCK!  If you are into any sort of sports, a bicyclist, horse enthusiast, kayaker, landlord, or do anything besides sit in your house all day, you can probably use a truck. This 1970 Ford F100 offered for $3,300 in Alhambra, CA fits the bill to a tee.

Seller Submission: 1973 Ford F100

This next feature comes as a seller submission from Matt who writes: Selling our F100 because we have too many projects and not enough parking, figured it met the kind of stuff you guys are interested in.  It's the perfect old truck - dependable (I daily drove it for a while), nice enough to get compliments everywhere, but not so nice you can't use it as a truck.  Old enough to be cool, but new enough to have some important things: power steering, power disk brakes, air conditioning. Find this 1973 Ford F100 pickup here on eBay bidding for $3,650 reserve-not-met with $8,000 buy-it-now, located in Columbia, SC.

DTO: Drag and Drop: 1953 Ford F100 with Ford Explorer chassis

Debuting in 1954, the second-generation Ford F100 sported a 110-inch wheelbase, which is just 1.5 inches off of the second-gen Explorer. Sandwiching one body to the other frame together must be as easy as dragging and dropping elements in Photoshop, right? Regardless of the labor put into it, the result is the restomod you see here. In flat black with 20-inch chrome torque thrust wheels, it's sure to be embraced by tasteless casuals a discerning buyer looking for modern convenience with an old-school facade. Find this 1953 Ford F100 restomod for sale in Dallas, TX for $22,000 via craigslist.

5k: EcoSuck: 1962 Ford F100 Pickup

This next feature comes to us from a friend of the Daily Turismo who explains that he is selling his classic truck because he has picked up a van and needs the money for some custom air brush art scene on the side (maybe a Wizard, Centaur, Aztec ziggurat or all three?).  Anyway, time for seller Jeff G needs to sell his derelict pickup to afford his van for picking up derelicts.  Find this 1962 Ford F100 Pickup currently bidding for $3,500 with 4 days to go Oakland, CA.

10k: Minty Clean 4x4, 1970 Ford F-100 Ranger

We're in the middle of Weekly Haulrismo Week, the not-so-elegantly-named DT theme that explores cool, interesting, and cheap vehicles to use for hauling all of that holiday debris that seems to accumulate this time of year. You're already draining your bank account buying stuff for other people, so why not indulge a bit and get that classic workhorse you've been fantasizing about? After Monday's clean old "Mustard and Mayo" Suburban, today we're shifting gears (with a long, spindly lever that feels like it's stirring a box of rocks) and taking a look at a Ford pickup. The 5th-generation of F-Series trucks were built from 1967-1972 in the US (and up until 1992 in Brazil!) and represent great value today - clean vintage styling, brawn, simplicity, able to be fixed with a pocket knife and a mallet, and reasonably priced. Take a look at this restored '70 F-100 "Ranger" 4x4 for sale in Chula Vista, CA. It's on ebay bidding near $2k currently, reserve not met, and Buy it Now at $13.9k. We think a final sale price somewhere near $10k would be perfectly reasonable for a gussied-up workhorse like this.

*UPDATE: this truck is listed locally here on San Diego craigslist for $12,900 or "reasonable offers"
