Wyatt,
Your truck did not come with a shroud, but the D3TZ8146C shroud from 67-76 F100-350 will fit if it is an all stock FE V8, however, I'm not sure about sizes of the aftermarket flex fans, though.
The shroud can also be bought new from several vendors, I think you will find new prices range from $67. to $100.
BTW my rad supports do not have the pre-drilled shroud holes, although I understand some do.
Also, one member fabbed a shroud from a piece of flexible black plastic garden edging
Do a search for that one

The shroud can also be bought new from several vendors (if they still have any). I think you will find new prices range from $67. to $100.

FoMoCo raised the prices a coupla months before they obsoleted the puppy, so don't expect to buy one (if you can find one) for $67-$100. / Last MSRP: $141.60 / Dealer net cost: $84.96.
A year or so ago, this puppy had an MSRP of about $100.00.
There are exactly two sources that have one each of these shrouds, one is in Puerto Rico. No other FoMoCo Dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.
This fan shrouds original applications were: 1967 F100/350 352 & 1968/76 F100/350 360/390 with Standard, Xtra Cooling and A/C radiators. Not used (will not fit) with 1967/76 optional Super Cooling radiator.
The Super Cooling radiator is almost 5" taller than the other radiators, uses a specific radiator support that has a larger opening radius.
The D3TZ-8146-C fan shroud is a "bolt on" for 1965/66 F100/350's. I added a new one to my 1965 in 1981, fit like it was made for it. I also installed a 4 row radiator at the same time.
A member bought one for his 1964 F100 292, said it bolted right on.

I think i have a later model radiator installed now as well. i think its from the 70's model year. it mounts with 4 bolts and 4 nuts on the core support from flanges on the radiator. I have a reciept from a radiator shop when it was last pressure tested and cleaned in 1985. I may have to just take a picture of my fan and shround and take my camera with me to the yard and see if anything matches up. that is if i can find my camera.
