1965 Ford F100 Truck
She ain't perfect
BUT
She Cranks Easy!
She Runs Good & Strong!
She Rides Smooth!
&
That 352 V8 Engine Sounds SWEEEEEEET!!!!
I fixed the truck up to be a daily driver but it has the potential to be easily restored or made into a Hot Rod!
I'm selling it because I have another "daily driver" now
& I want something else old, to fix up, that can go & play in the Alabama Mud!!
I have the trucks original Operator's Manuel!
The original "Ford Truck Owner Identification" Card!!
& The 1965 Pre-Delivery Service Sheet!
The writing on the inside of the "Operator's Manuel" says the Truck was purchased from
Ralph Collins Ford - Albertville, Alabama.
I purchased the truck in Alabama & I live in Alabama,
so it is likely this truck has been southern owned & in Alabama its whole life!
The Truck is covered in its original chrome.
Best I can tell only two piece of chrome need work.
The tail gate latch handle mounting plate is rusted &
the Chrome piece for the center of the steering wheel is not attached.
(But I do have the Steering Wheel Piece)
- All of the gauges work, Gas, Speed O, Mileage...
- The wipers work & have new blades installed.
- The Tail lights & Brake Lights work.
- One Tail light lens is damaged & will need to be replaced, but the light works fine.
- The Blinkers do not work, the stick is there, but when
- The headlights work on dim & they shine bright enough,
When I purchased the truck it had been neglected for a few years.
It was running but needed some TLC.
- So I Took out the gas tank, cleaned, repaired, repainted & reinstalled it.
- While I had the seat and tank out, I Pulled out the original floor liner, repaired it & re-coated.
- I also Cleaned the cab floor, sprayed it with a rust preventive coating,
- re-painted it & re-installed the original floor liner.
The seat cushion is in good shape but the cover was not.
I covered the foam and stabilized it with tape, so it would be comfortable
but could still be recovered later. I installed a seat cover.
All of its glass in the truck is in good shape.
The windshield has a "road bruise" that is about 1/2 inch *See photo
The windows roll up and down.
The doors will lock but only the drivers door will unlock from the outside.
The doors shut good and tight.
The tail gate opens and closes easy.
The cig. lighter works!! (who can live without a place to charge there cell phone, Right?)
The lighter is not shown in the photos but it is tucked away in the ashtray.
The Ashtray & Glove Box open & close easily.
The original radio is installed but the antenna is not hooked up, so I have not messed with it.
The original sun visors are in good shape.
The truck has its side mirrors and rear view mirrors in place.
The interior light works.
The head liner is missing but the side pieces are installed.
The trim and clips for the headliner are still in place.
The door panel covers are missing but all the trim and clips are still in place.
(Price those trim pieces on Ebay & you'll see what a good thing it is that those are still installed!)
The truck does have some surface rust but I have found no rust holes in need of repair.
My mechanic said the underside looked good as well.
Overall the body is in good shape for its age.
The drivers fender has a clean split at the bottom,
The passenger fender has a small dent.
The tail gate has a dent.
There is a long scratch in the paint on the passenger side bed there are various scratches and flaking paint.
It appears the truck had a DIY paint job at some point.
So look at the photos and you be the judge!
The radius arm bushings were replaced & the truck was fitted with new shocks,
so for a '65 she rides nice, now!
The carb was cleaned, new points installed and the timing adjusted.
The truck cranks up easy and the 352 V8 sounds soooo.... good!
AND
RUNS GREAT!!
This truck has some serious get up & go and is a lot of fun to drive!!
All four tire on the truck are NEW!
They were purchased in June of this year.
The spare tire is not new.
The truck does not have power steering but it steers and handles well for me
& I'm a girl!
The truck is 3 speed on the column.
The truck is geared low and will usually pull a hill without downshifting.
The truck will git up and go in all the forward gears and reverse!
The truck had dual exhaust when I bought it, & I have not had any work done to the exhaust system,
so I can't really tell you anything about it.
I think I have told you all I know about this good old truck, but if you have questions,
please feel free to ask. You can send me a message through Ebay or
call me: Thori Brewer 706-506-2982.

2015 Mustang-based Saleen S302 to boast as much as 640 hp
Tue, 23 Sep 2014The Ford Mustang is obviously a famous performance vehicle in its own right, but it often works even better as a platform for the aftermarket to upgrade. With the all-new 2015 model just now hitting the scene, the famous tuners at Saleen are getting their improvements for the new pony car ready for the world. After recently teasing it, the specs for its fresh S302 model are officially here, along with a first look at it in profile.
Of course, the biggest question on everyone's mind is how much power the company can get from the Mustang's V8. With the 2015 V8 model rated at 435 horsepower and 400 pound-feet, Saleen expects to bump the Ford factory numbers slightly to 450 hp and 410 lb-ft in naturally aspirated form, or with the benefit of a supercharger, it will rocket the engine's output figures to 640 hp and 565 lb-ft. No matter which powerplant a buyer chooses, there are a wide variety of available final-drive ratios with a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox.
Available as either a coupe or convertible forms, Saleen will offer its S302 in three trim levels - White Label, Yellow Label and Black Label. The White Label is the only naturally aspirated one of the bunch, but it still benefits from upgrades like a new exhaust, limited-slip differential, improved suspension, heat extractor hood and rear wing.
2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]
Sat, 28 Jun 2014When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."
