Another core support question

I found a 1966 F-700 at a local yard and it has a perfect hardly any surface rust core support. It looks like it is the same just wondering if I can put it in my 66. It looks like the inner fenders won't work.

If you have a 66 F100 or 250 2WD it wont work,its should be the sinilar as a 61 to 64. If you have a 4X4 it might work work.

I thought the 61-64 core supports would work, just the inner fenders won't. But I'm not sure. I have a 66 F-100 2wd.

I think they both the core support and inner fenders are different but if someone knows for sure I would like to know as a local yard has some of the larger trucks,I ended up using one from a 65 on mine since I was using the large 460 radiator from a 77 which has a similar mounting to the 65.

They have one on a 66 f100 2wd also that looks to be rust free, but the f700 is perfect.

the core support on your 66 F100 2WD has exactly 3 potential donor candidates...66 F100 2WD like yours, or a 66 F250 2WD or if you are really lucky, a 66 F100 4WD.

Yes but what about the F-700. I know I can get the one off the 66, but I know that the oneon the f700 is better. They want $100 for either one. I just want to know if the f700 will fit.

Neither will fit without minor modifications.

And contrary to popular belief you are not **** out of luck. The core support in the yard needs to have the apron brackets added and a correct type radiator. An easy
modification.

Unless you are building a F100 for the Riddler or Pebble Beach it don't matter.

Thanks Garbz2. That's what I needed to know and wanted to hear. Are the aprons the inner fenders, if so I am making new ones. Now off to the yard on Monday and see what I can get myself into.

Yes they are the inner panels. The early round type will not mount to the cowl of a 65 66 2 wheel drive.
