1983 F100 Flareside

[Gary Lewis]

Got a text last night from Ray Cecil with a link to this truck: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1983-ford-f-100-4/

Ooooh… I like!

Nice truck!

Since people tell me all the time (including Ford experts!) that the Bullnose Flaresides were NEVER offered with plywood floors in the beds...I'd like to point out that this truck still has what looks like the factory original PLYWOOD bed floor. It is pretty rare to see them with the original floor still intact like this.

Reamer knows!

I like the black bezels with the silver edging. Cool.

Overall in very nice condition. I like it, a lot.

On a side note...I just happened to see the folks on Facebook the other day asking what the number was on the firewall behind the engine. I paid little attention at the time since my truck does not have this number...but I see this red one sure does.

My truck has the yellow numbers/marks. I believe they were part of Q.C. or assembly

[Ford F834]

Very nice! Thanks for sharing

Notice the "bumper dents" in the tailgate walls?

[Ray Cecil]

I didn't see that before. Yup, looks like someone had a chain too long one before....shame....

Its only got an hour or so left. Currently at $6500

[Ford F834]

Sold for $6500...

Would be kind of nice to have a nice condition last year F100. The F100 must hold some historical or sentimental value with certain crowds (or maybe the older crowd?). I've had a lot of guys ask  me if my truck was an F100, and they always seem to be just a little bit disappointed when I tell them it is an F150...lol. I think a lot of people expect a plain little 2wd Flareside to be an F100.

In my experience the go-fast crowd seem to be F100 snobs but I’m sure there are others who prefer them over the heavy half’s.

[Rembrant]

I pick up that F100 magazine every now and then, and according to it, the F100 ended in 1979...lol. Slammed trucks are not my thing personally, but I enjoy the pictures and light reading.

[Ray Cecil]

Not too bad for that truck. Nice looker.

I've picked that mag up before, but hadn't realized they are misinformed on when the F100's stopped.  May just write them an email and point them at the dealer facts books which show the last year that had an F100 ('83) and the first year that didn't ('84).  But, I'll need to scan in the '84 book first.
