Here is the thread of my truck with photos thru the 4 pages.
The more i check it out the more i find. And the more i am glad i bought this truck.
All of your information has been a great help. Normally a Buick man, But like Ford Trucks.
The bed length is 69 inches on the 64. And the left wheel well has a reduction hump in the front area, My 62 Unibody does not have this reduced hump.

Dana 60's (using the 5 lug, 5.50" bolt pattern) with or without Limited Slip were an RPO option in 1961/67 F100's.
RPO = Regular Production Order.

The battery mounted under the floorpan was an DSO option on 1961/64 F100/250's.
DSO = Domestic Special Order.
It was also available on 1970 F100/250 2WD's.
If anyone on that other site wants to argue, here's the proof: C4TZ10A687B .. Battery Cover-Used with Under Floor Mounted Battery / Fits: 1961/64 F100/250.
It's a "hi-railer", no need for motorcar ramps and rails when you got a
hi-railer. ;)
The B&B gangs and track gangs used motorcars on the SP, only in the
80's did the Roadmasters start getting hi-railers.
If my stepfather was still alive and it was an SP hi-railer, I could show
'im the picture and he could tell us whose it was.
...or tell us "Santa Fe stuff".
Since it's not orange, I'm going to guess it's off the "Santa Fe".
The Santa Fe hauled Ford (and Chrysler?) and SP hauled GM.
