Model Identification

I recently got a 74 F100 truck and I want to identify what kind of model it is. It says EXPLORER on the side emblems. But on the glove box door it says CUSTOM. Is there any way I can tell what model this is? Thanks

Chris

Tell me about the upholstery.

Does it have carpet or a rubber floor mat?

I suspect these are the rear box panel emblems.

Is there any other reference to Explorer on the truck?

Here is more info on the truck


It has a rubber floor mat

I guy who had the truck before me had the seats redone but Im pretty sure they were originally vinyl

The body looks fully trimmed

The bed looks like it may of had bed rails on it at one time

The Explorer emblems are one the sides of the bed. The Custom emblem is on the glove box


I hope this helps

Chris

Sounds like a "Custom Explorer" To me!!



But really it sounds like someone replaced the bed on it...
If it is an explorer, it will have a hood emblem on it...
