Bought my 2nd 'bump' over the weekend. I was initially out to just buy a bed for my 1968 F100 Ranger. I found this 1971 F100 Custom and it's pretty much together and less rusty than my 68. So instead of taking its bed and tailgate off I think I'm going to see if I can get it running. Everything is there, they said it might have a problem with the fuel pump but ya never know whats up. It's been sitting for 3 or 4 years. It's very dirty right now but I'll get it cleaned up and pretty (if possible). I'm wondering what size motor it has, I wasn't able to get the VIN off it yet so I'm not sure. I know it's an automatic so I think it's a 360 with a C6. Here's a little slide show of the 71: 1971 Ford F100 Custom Slideshow by ajbremer | Photobucket

 

Engine most likely 360, not sure on avail. date but shift indicater looks C-O-M of FMX rather than C6, do agree auto. ND should know for sure.

Looks like a project for sure. Wonder if the PO passed with books still on dash.

Looks like a good project truck...have fun!

 

Looks pretty solid. Interested in seeing what you do with it. FE's are great engines.

Good luck with your build.
