Additional comments:I have had my tan short bed 66 since 1986. It's had a frame off resto with a powder coated gray frame, paint top to bottom - inside and out, traction lock Dana 60, C6 with 11 inch converter and a 390 Performer RPM engine. It also has air conditioning, sway bars, disk brakes and power steering. I would like to yank the C6 for a Tremec 5 speed, maybe this winter? These trucks are awsome and have great lines, they are true classics! Enjoy the ride. Thanks Brandon

Additional comments:I recently purchased this truck as a restoration project for my sons and I. Overall the truck is in pretty good shape and does run. I'm thinking about starting the project by rebuilding the 300 ci straight six and single barrel carb. I want to keep the truck as original as possible. I am trying to find an original air cleaner pan and cover if anyone knows the whereabouts of one.

Additional comments:Trying to find a place for parts. Got all the books and websites but they dont seem to have what I am looking for. Not trying to go original just fixing it up and trying to sell it. Mt father had this truck since the 80's from a farm in colorado. He was trying to restore original but due to health reasons we must just get rid of it. Any help on cheap parts would be great. Needs whole interior! Some lenses and bumpers. Thanks for checking this out.....

Additional comments:this truck started after a girl hit my '63 econoline pick-up and totaled it so I bought the 4x4 which the vin #'s state as a 2WD after a farm sold. the body was shot so I bought a 2wd for the body which still has the original paint on it. normal rust but not bad. complete frame off since changing bodies. front discs from mid 70's truck, chasis coat the frame after cleaning, 300 I6 4 spd granny, new wiring harness, I have bought an era correct A/C add on unit to install, power brakes, and steering. hope to have it back together this summer less paint and body work. It will be used to tow our camper and get me back and forth to work daily. I miss driving an old truck.

Additional comments:I Just got my dream truck in March 2006. It's a 1965 F100 shortbed stepside that originally was a 6 cylinder. The gentleman that I purchased it from put a 302 motor and automatic transmission from a '73 Torino in it, and it runs like a brand new truck. I would rather drive it than a brand new truck. I have a question that maybe someone can help me with. How many shortbed stepsides did Ford make in 1965?

Additional comments:One of 3, I originally raced the truck, so no it is NOT stock, I did a Volare front end swap (cross bar) for better handling and front discs, pulled the fuel tank out of the back, and put a custom built alum. cell center rear frame, frenched in a gas filler and door, and replaced the steering column with a GM tilt unit out of a van because original made it difficult to get in and out. I then frenched in gold series guages into the original decorative discs in the OEM dash. I ran the truck for two years with a .10 over 429, and C-6. Had to reshackle the rear springs which accomodated (barely) a set of 13" street slicks in back. In 01, Life caught up w/ me and the Family demands necessitated swapping a stately 400 and better gears for me. of course now I get 17 Mpg and can actually listen to the original radio when I drive!Despite all of the setbacks she's almost done (which means I cant think of anything else to do to her), and some day, i'll get to dust of the big boy and my son and I can tear it up some more.

Additional comments:I've been a Ford fanatic, like the rest of my family, for all of my 32 yrs on this earth. I have just recently purchased a 1961 F-100. This is the oldest vehicle i have ever owned, i've had the pickup going on 2 months now. I bought from a very good friend for $500.00, I don't know much about it(history and such) but at time of purchase-present the inline 6cyl, 3 on the tree converted to the floor runs like a bat out of hell/ tight as a wedge. The body could use a little work, no biggie, and it is primer grey. The only work I've put into it so far... replaced the starter, re-ran all the wiring front to back in and out, and replaced the almost completely worn out steering knuckle. It is my primary vehicle and I absolutely love the smooth,smooth ride. Previously owned Fords were 1978 F-150 custom, 1978 F-150 ranger, 1992 ranger, 1996 F-150 extended cab, all have been fleet sides. Hope to have more plus pics later.

Additional comments:I had a 63 f-100. it was a 6 cyl with a 3 on the tree. However, when I traded for it (two cases and a 12 pack) it had a locked-up motor and an International Harvester bed on it. After two months of modifications I put 65 mustang buckets in it built a custon front bumper and a flat bed. Money was tight (college student) so I traded labor for a 67 pontiac V-8 350 and a turbohydro 350 auto transmission.
I ran the truck for quite some time. Unfortunately, when I parked it later, it was stripped of parts for others (with out my permission). Any way I currently drive a 2004 crew cab F-150. Other Fords I have owned included a 75 F-150 Ranger camper Special and a 1992 ford ranger.

I am searching for an older crewcab for a restoration project. -Bob.

Additional comments:My Grandfather bought this truck new back in 66 and it has been passed down to my father and now to me. I currently have it in the shop as I intend to restore it and add a little jazz to it. Once I have it all done I plan on shipping it to my home in Puerto Rico and using it as a daily driver.

Additional comments:I just recently bought a 66 F-100 and I will drive it daily untill my daughter gets old enough to drive."she is 14 now" It was in pretty good shape but not road worthy. I have done the brakes and gas tank and I am doing the radiator now. Engine is great, a original 352 with 73k! One other thing I am only the second owner. The original owner died about 20 years ago and has sit in a barn for that long. I've got the original owner's manual too. It will be about a 2 year project, but I am excited about it.

Additional comments:Looking to restore my 64 that I have owned now for 25 plus years. Over the years I have built it up from dead stock to a nicer driver with later model parts (2 speed wipers, alternator, higher gearer rear end, etc....) STill has a stock 223, but have had a variety of engines under the hood. Was so low geared when I got it, that it would not hit 60! Changed to a 3.70 to 1 rear axle and now it will!
Debating whether I ought to leave it stock or play with it.
Have a 262 and a few speed parts, hmmmmm.... :)

Additional comments:Moved my in-laws up from Texas but had to leave this truck behind. The truck was mine if I retreived it. So I flew down rented a truck and trailer and spent the next 4 days and 2300 miles bringing it back. I figure the expense was at least equal to the value of the truck. Since my Father in-Law, Tex, bought the truck new in 66, there is also the sentimental value with my wife riding in it as a kid.
Except for some issues with the ignition wiring this truck is in excellent shape.
Tex has the beginnings of altzhimers so its kind of sad I can't get much history from him. I plan on keeping it on the road and in great shape for him.

I got a lot of people ask what is a Unibody? Not knowing that Ford made something like that. If any body out there needs body parts like a tail gate or a bumper please let me know. I have a book that tells all the info on that truck, so if there is someone needing info let me know, or how to do something that know one else knows or heard of.

Additional comments:I own two '64 F100's, one is a restorod, stepside, that has been a frame off, with a built 351W, and C6. The truck is nearly done, and has been for some years, just haven't gotten around to finishing it. My other '64 is an original shortbed, 292 with 4 speed, daily driver, currently stored. I'm now driving my '66 shortbed with a mildly built 390. I use this truck for everything, and call it my fishing truck. I have a '66 longbed which will start, and drive, but has not been on the road in many years. It has 80K original miles. Unfortunately, it spent many years outside. I also have a '65 shortbed, that I bought for parts, but have think I will build someday, instead of parting out. In addtion, I have four other trucks, for parts, plus parts from several trucks, I've parted out.

Have a great day,
Rich

Additional comments:This truck is the only thing my grandfather left anyone when he died. It was also the first thing I ever learned to drive. Just starting to restore it. It actually runs and drives, but needs lots of work. The engine is coming out today to be re-built. Then we're going all the way from the frame up. This is my first restoration and not really one of my past times. However, this truck means the world to me. Can anyone send me in the right direction for repair/restoration manuals? Step by step instructions???
