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.

Ford GT dominates Le Mans qualifying, gets slapped with performance adjustment

Fri, Jun 17 2016

Fifty years after Bruce McLaren and Chris Amon drove the Ford GT40 to victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Ford is poised for a historic return to the Circuit de la Sarthe. The new Ford GT took the top two qualifying positions in the LMGTE Pro class, and four of the top five. Ferrari's 488 filled in the rest of the spots in the top seven, the first two from AF Corse. In other words, we're primed for a reboot of the classic Ford-Ferrari feud at this year's race. Or not, as the ACO, which organizes the 24 Hours of Le Mans, announced sweeping pre-race Balance of Performance (BOP) adjustments this morning that make this year's GT class anybody's race. In LMP1, last year's overall winner Porsche locked up the top two spots with the 919 Hybrid and will lead the entire field at race start. Toyota's two-car factory effort followed with qualifying times 1.004 and 2.170 seconds behind the pole lap. Audi rounds out the manufacturer-backed LMP1 class in fifth and sixth. Full qualifying results can be found here. The storyline for the GT cars is perfect - some say too perfect. Ford's class-leading times came after BOP adjustment to the Corvette Racing C7.R before qualifying. BOP is intended to level the playing field in the class by adjusting power, ballast, and fuel capacity. (Check out this explainer video for more, or even just if you love French accents.) But the process is riddled with unknowns and ripe for accusations of sandbagging. That is, if the Ford cars were intentionally slow in practice they could hope for BOP adjustment to improve their race chances. On the Corvette side, last year's GTE Pro winner went from the top of the field to the bottom, barely improving from practice to qualifying. If you think Le Mans is as rigged at the NBA Playoffs, well, it's not that simple. Because if Ford and Ferrari held back until qualifying - the eighth-place Porsche 911 RSR is three-and-a-half seconds off the class pole time - it was a pretty dumb strategy. This morning, the ACO tried to put things back in order by limiting the boost in the Ford GT's twin-turbo V6 and adding 11 pounds of ballast. Ferrari was also given extra weight but allowed more fuel capacity. The Corvette and Aston Martin teams were both given breaks on their air restrictors, which will allow their engines to make more power. Both Ford and Porsche also received extra fuel capacity.

Ford wants to double hybrid offerings by 2020

Wed, Jan 15 2014

The Blue Oval is looking for folks on the other side of this Big Old Sphere to get on board with its hybrid offerings. Ford executive Raj Nair, speaking at the Detroit Auto Show this week, said the US automaker wants to double the number of hybrids models it offers by the end of the decade, Reuters reports. Details of what that actually means is anyone's guess, as it was unclear how many of those models would be in the US and how many would be overseas. That said, Nair did say that prospective customers in regions such as China and Europe would drive the expansion of offerings. Ford got off to a great start in the US last year on its hybrid sales, but then tailed off towards the end of 2013. Ford more than doubled its green-car sales in 2013 to almost 88,000 units. In that number were more than 37,000 Fusion Hybrids and more than 28,000 C-Max Hybrids sold domestically. The company also sold almost 7,500 Lincoln MKZ Hybrids. Ford's green-car totals for 2013 were up fivefold at the mid-year point, hinting that Ford's hybrid sales plateaued, at least temporarily, in recent months.
