"1965 Ford F100 Pickup��
Baseball, apple pie...and Ford F-series trucks, (sorry, Chevy guys...this is a temporary alteration).� The best selling vehicle in American history and over a span of 40 years, more than 33,000,000 units have hit the street in all forms of trim levels and packages.� ""Built Ford Tough"" was a common advertising axiom but has been repeated and confirmed by millions of Ford truck devotees for generations.� We've seen and sold our share at Classic Auto Mall and welcome a steady flow of F-series goodness!
For consignment, a custom F100 that at first glance, conjures up the original Bigfoot monster truck. �This thing is jacked, stacked, and higher than a Mack!� An impressive build that seems to have come down from a lumber yard in the deep woods of the Sierra mountains...only now it's ready for car shows and truck gatherings where it will rise above all others. �I don't know if you're into naming your vehicles, but this one might be called ""Babe the Blue Ox"" after Paul Bunyan's monster sidekick.��
Exterior
Blur your eyes and you can see remnants of the original F100 here � now open them and look at that glossy blue paint and shiny chrome.� The red arrow and ""100"" on the side is a striking break in the blue and adds depth and character to the body.� The ""custom cab"" door handle bezel is absolutely show quality too and we almost want to use white gloves to open this truck.� The large flatbed is framed by diamond plated short walls and side-accessed tool boxes, (you know, for your axes, chain saws, and forest fire equipment).� Shiny gas tanks sit under the bed on both sides and have built-in step ups. �A huge, tubular step-up in high gloss chrome protrude from each side, ready for Mr. Bunyan to climb aboard. �A winch hook lays in wait in the rear along with a tow ball hitch on a massive utility bumper where you'll find more chrome. 15-inch wheels are made to look much bigger by 32x12.50-15 truck tires mounted around them.��
Interior
The door panels are painted body-color and house the door actuator, power window unit, and a storage pouch.� The doors and jambs are gleaming � and consistent with show-car quality, would likely be included in the waxing process come showtime.� The blue vinyl bench seat is minty-mint as is the deep pile dark blue carpet underfoot.� The steering wheel and dash are in stock form; lovely in their simplicity.� Switches and knobs are period correct, if not original, and have that great mid-60's tactile feel. �The center and right side of the dash continue the fine blue paint and some added switches, gauges, and CB radio are mounted under the dash.�� The floor-mounted shifter and the differential shifter, (4L, N, 2H, 4H), are vintage and housed in black rubber boots.� The headliner is flawless and blue.��
Drivetrain
Open the hood and the first thing that catches your eye are massive, silver painted wheel wells seemingly squeezing the engine into the center.� And the engine...a 352ci V8 that has finned valve covers, an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor, and touches of blue, purple, and red hoses and accessories.� It's tied to a 3-speed manual transmission sending power to a Ford 9-inch Detroit locker rear and 3.70 gears along with a Dana 44 up front and matching 3.70's.� Drum brakes bring the ox to a stop.�
Undercarriage
No four-post lift was needed for this truck as we just crouched down to get a look.� It's all very nice...dressed almost all in black save for the bright blue shocks at all four corners and the blue painted underbody.� Surface rust colors the single exhaust but the muffler is unfazed and looks good.� Leaf springs cushion the ride on all four corners.� Overall, a very nice presentation.�
Drivability
Setting aside any acrophobia for the moment, we hoist ourselves up to the clouds.� Once inside, the familiar cab of an F100 is a comforting sight.� On the ride, the truck pulls nicely and has more than adequate power.� The knobby tires make some noise on the blacktop and no rattles or squeaks encumber that sound.� �You feel large and in charge sitting up that high, looking over a plain of deep blue paint and a long bed behind you.� Power-boosted brakes would be welcome here, but early braking with the big drums do the trick. �2 frowns made their appearances during my time behind the wheel; the left turn signal would not self cancel and the fuel gauge does not read.�
�Big blue is an impressive truck and would stand out in any crowd.� With the flatbed, you could use this truck for utilitarian needs, (moving furniture), or serve as a fantastic parade vehicle.� Sure, you could winch someone out of a ditch, but that would just get things dirty...and this truck is so clean, we'd probably just call AAA.� This is a fantastic, classic F100 looking for a new caretaker...one who is not afraid of heights and doesn't mind some attention.
