Was there a 300-6 option for a 1970 F100 4X4?

A woman is selling a 1970 4x4 that runs for about $900. It either has a 360 or a 300-6. She says it has a 306, which obviously isn't possible. If it has a 300-6, I'm buying it tomorrow.

Nevermind! Thought it was a shortbox, it's not. I'm not interested unless it's a short box! Sad.

Fyi.. a 306 is possible... an overbored 302.

Pretty obvious it's just a typo, most likely the 6 and 0 got transposed in 360, or it could have been from 300-6. People just don't proofread what they write.

No.... some could have described the rebuilt engine's displacement overaccurately.

No Bump 4x4 had 302 in original configuration but lots of things happen over 45+ years.
