This Auction is for my

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
we opened it up to repair them we found the "guts" had been removed.
  •   The headlights work on dim & they shine bright enough,
that it has not prevented me from driving the truck at night.

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.


The truck is also for sale locally, so the auction is subject to be ended early.

Please be sure you can complete the purchase before bidding.  I have given a detailed description of the truck & provided photos, & offered to try to answer any question you may have.

The truck is not perfect but it cranks, runs & drives, so the only reason for a refund of your deposit & not completing the sale will be if, for some unforseen reason, the truck will not crank or pull its self out of my driveway when you come to pick it up.  This Truck is not being sold subject to a test drive.  It is a 48 year old un-restored truck you are made aware it is still in need of work.

The winning bidder will need to make a cleared $500.00 deposit through PayPal with in 24 hours of the close of the auction.  The balance will need to be paid in cash (the green stuff, no checks) & the truck picked up with in 7 days from the time the auction closes. The truck can not be picked up, if the paypal deposit is not yet cleared.

If the truck has not been picked up within 7 days the deposit will be retained and the truck re-offered for sale.

Call me to make pick up arrangements or email me your contact information.

Hyundai, BMW and Ford win Concept Vehicle of the Year awards

Sat, 06 Jul 2013

More than two dozen jurors started with a pool of 23 concept cars introduced at the most recent Los Angeles, Detroit, Chicago, Toronto and New York auto shows, then pared it down to three winners in three categories for the twelfth annual North American Concept Vehicle of the Year Awards. The trophy-bearers are said to be those "vehicles most likely to shape the future of the automobile industry," and lead their classes in the Concept Car, Concept Truck and Production Preview divisions.
Hyundai had two cars as finalists for the Concept Car category, the competition boiled down to the Hyundai HCD-14 Genesis concept, Veloster C3 Roll Top, Honda EV-STER and the Toyota Corolla Furia. It won with the HCD-14 Genesis that was introduced at the Detroit Auto Show, a sharp sedan that sharply divided opinion between those who thought it was too much, those who thought it was too much Audi A7, and those who thought it was perfect. The award panel's judges, however, thought so much of it that it's got two awards in one sitting, not only taking concept car honors, but because it earned the highest overall score in the competition it also takes the crown for Most Significant Concept Vehicle of 2013.
The final selection in the Concept Truck category was down to the Ford Atlas, Kia Cross GT, Nissan Resonance and Volkswagen Cross Blue. The Ford Atlas took the silverware, after also winning the Eyes on Design award - shared with the Nissan Resonance - at the Detroit Auto Show where it was introduced.

2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

Your Mileage May Vary
As difficult as it is to write this, I was actually excited about the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. With the beautiful looks of the newest midsize fighter from Ford and a fuel economy estimate capable of shaming even the stalwart Camry Hybrid, the battery-augmented four-door seemed like a recipe for unabashed success. But appearances love nothing more than swapping our boundless enthusiasm for cold platters of disappointment. The 2013 Fusion Hybrid gets hobbled right out of the gate with a lofty price tag, and real-world driving keeps the sedan from even approaching those EPA figures.
With so many excellent midsize hybrids on the market, is there any reason to consider the newest Fusion Hybrid? Are sharp aesthetics, a well-executed interior and capable driving dynamics enough to overcome the machine's shortfalls? Not from where I'm standing.

Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
