1966 f250
I have a chance of getting my grandad's truck back and was wondering a few things about the drivetrain. It is a 1966 F250 with a 352 and 3 speed (I think) on the column. What tranny and rearend does it have? It has been sitting for quite a few years, but doesn't look to be in bad shape.
Thanks

Ok, thanks! I'll look for the tag next time I am there. What is a good price to offer? It was dark in there, but from what I could tell it is still very solid. I was told the bed dumps. There is no tailgate.

Wyatt66f100,
is it a short bed, long bed, Styleside, Stepside? It looks like a good blowing off and a bath would do that truck a world of good. Its great to see an old truck setting in a barn or shed or what ever that is. I usually find mine in a field of blackberry vines and get ripped to shreads just trying to get to them. I would get it just from the fact it was your Grandpa's truck. I missed the opprotunity to buy my Grandpa's truck (1966 Chevrolet C10 Long Fleetside) and my Cousin wrapped it around a telephone pole. Dont let it get away.

It's a styleside. I'm not sure if it is a long or short bed, but I want to say it is long.
The second owners (who still own it) had something fall on the original bed so it was replaced with a bed from another '66 that dumps. I think that was done sometime in the 80's

its hard to say without interior pics and engine operation conditions. you know potential major faults? but id say start at 850 900 see where that takes ya. because you dont know whats wrong with it. they should bring you a little higher.

The TRANS & AXLE code are listed on the second line of the Warranty Plate, which is located on the left door face below the latch.
If the AXLE code begins with a letter, the vehicle has Limited Slip, if with a number, it does not.
