It looks a bit rusty and faded in spots but that's the intent! Despite its older appearance, the drivetrain is modern.

An old GMC pickup truck sits abandoned in a junk yard. You can imagine the stories this old truck could tell.
The 4th Generation of Ford’s F pickup trucks spanned model years 1961-66. New for the generation was the ‘integrated pickup’ design in which the bed was welded directly onto the cab. This was intended to save assembly steps in the factory and to replace the ‘Styleside’ bed of the previous generation in which the two parts were mounted separately on the vehicle frame.
However, truck buyers weren’t completely sold on the idea for various reasons having to do with ride and durability of the design. To satisfy potential Ford buyers who wanted the conventional configuration in which the cab and bed weren’t directly attached together, they then offered a combination of a Gen 4 cab mismatched with the Gen 3 box for a couple of model years! By the middle of 1963, Ford finally offered a separate Gen 4 Styleside box that matched the style of the Gen 4 cab.
