Background Story of this 1966 Ford F-250

Overview of 1966 Ford F-250 For Sale by Owner

This 1966 Ford F-250 Crown Crew Cab 4×4 is a rare example of a purpose-built heavy-duty truck ordered with both specialized coachwork and Ford’s upscale Custom Cab specification. Unlike the standard fleet-grade bodies typically used for Crown conversions, this truck was built on a F-250 platform and equipped from new with the 81B Custom Cab package, pairing a four-door Crown-built body with Ford’s highest interior trim of the period. A comprehensive, factory-correct restoration was carried out with the singular goal of returning the truck precisely to its original 1966 configuration rather than modernizing or reinterpreting it. The combination of Custom Cab trim, Crown coachwork, faithfully recreated upholstery materials, and original-style factory air conditioning places this truck among the most authentic Crown crew cab F-250s known, supported by Hemmings documentation and minimal mileage since completion.

Exterior and Interior

Finished in its original Caribbean Turquoise, the exterior of this 1966 Ford F-250 retains all Crown-specific structural features, including the four-door crew cab architecture, exposed rear hinges, and shortened bed proportions, presented with correct 1966 paint finish, textures, and detailing. The interior is where this truck distinguishes itself most clearly from other Crown conversions. Rather than a utilitarian fleet interior, it was ordered with the 81B Custom Cab package, featuring a padded dash, full gauge cluster, premium door panels, and enhanced insulation. The seats are trimmed in Medium Green Crush vinyl with Cody-pattern woven inserts that were recreated using original mill patterns to precisely match Ford’s 1966 fabric. Correct hot-stamped Ford logos, factory-style door pockets, color-matched steering wheel and column, and period switchgear complete a cabin that accurately reflects Ford’s premium pickup interior rather than a work-truck specification.

Engine

Power comes from a factory-correct, naturally aspirated 352ci FE V8 rated at 172 net horsepower, paired with a NP435 4-speed manual transmission and a Ford/Spicer divorced two-speed transfer case. A Dana 60 limited-slip rear axle with 4.56:1 gearing provides proper F-250 heavy-duty capability, supported by factory-style leaf springs, drum brakes, and original steering components. Of particular significance is the presence of a correct, original-specification Ford under-dash air-conditioning system, sourced as unused old stock and installed exactly as Ford offered in 1966. Combined with the PTO-driven winch and period-correct driveline components, the mechanical presentation remains faithful to how this Crown-built F-250 crew cab would have been delivered when new.

2008 Ford Mustang GT Convertible California Special

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$15,494

At the 2003 North American Auto Show, Ford debuted a concept car that previewed what the next Mustang could be. The current at the time fourth generation was becoming a little long in the tooth and soft in the flesh, despite Ford trying to spice it up with variants such as the Cobra R. Then, two years later, the fifth generation dropped and…people lost their minds! Here was a Mustang that had fantastic retro-modern looks, a properly fierce face, and the powertrain mix to back it up. Sales skyrocketed, with over 160,000 being sold in the United States alone, for 2005! Sales did temper a little after the initial rush, but during its nine-year run, they never went below 70,000 units per year! Taking example of this 2008 Ford Mustang GT that’s available in Douglasville, Georgia, it’s not hard to see why. This particular car is a drop-top and comes with the potent all-new at the time, all-aluminum Modular V8 at the time. One key is included with the sale of this 106,654-mile car.

1978 Toyota Hilux RN28L Pickup

PENDING SALE
$23,999

Over here these days, Toyota pickup trucks are typically the Tacoma or the Tundra. But in much of the rest of the world, the Toyota Hilux reigns supreme. Produced since March 1968, the Hilux was actually sold as the Toyota Pickup in the United States between 1972 and 1995, when it was a compact pickup truck. Now, it’s a mid-size pickup truck and has always used a body-on-frame construction method. The Hilux is famous for being exceptionally tough, and basically unkillable. Jeremy Clarkson tried to kill one on Top Gear and failed; even with a bent frame and myriad damage, the truck could still move under its own power. Today, we have a 1978 Toyota Hilux RN28L for sale from Fremont, California, with over 70,000 miles on the clock. It’s a second-generation example that appears to have been used quite carefully, making it a nice little classic to add to your collection.
