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 C-Max spied with fresh updates

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

The Ford C-Max hatchback looks to be getting a few cosmetic updates, as evidenced in this latest set of spy photos. Like the smaller Focus, which also received a nip/tuck for the 2015 model year, the C-Max appears to be getting a revised front fascia with slimmer headlamps and a more, shall we say, Aston Martin-like grille. Around back, there looks to be a new bumper with redesigned taillamps, as well.
In other markets, the C-Max people-mover is available with a range of powertrains, but here in the US, it exists either as a traditional gas-electric or plug-in hybrid. The C-Max's fuel economy has been a particular topic of interest lately, with its official fuel economy ratings having been lowered twice since the vehicle's launch. Sales initially suffered a bit following this fiasco, though numbers have since leveled out. It's unclear if Ford is working on any powertrain tweaks for the updated C-Max seen here, however.
Ford has likely spruced up the hatch's interior, as well, though we don't have photos of that at this time. Mum's the word on when we'll see the new C-Max, but our best guess is that it'll arrive sometime in the next year.

2014 Saleen George Follmer Edition Mustang debuts at Lagun Seca

Sat, 17 Aug 2013

Saleen used the occasion of the race-fueled Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca to announce its new Heritage Collection Lineup. The event was punctuated with the debut of the collection's first member, the 2014 Saleen George Follmer Edition Mustang.
Follmer's name will likely sound familiar to fans of American racing in the 1960s and '70s. The driver competed in Formula One with the Shadow team in 1973, ran the Indianapolis 500, was the Can-Am champion in 1972 and drove stock cars in NASCAR's Winston Cup as well. The multi-disciplined driver is now one of three -the other two being Mark Donohue and Swede Savage - with the honor of upcoming, limited edition Saleen-tuned vehicles..

Ford's Mulally now said to be in lead for Microsoft CEO job

Sun, 29 Sep 2013

There have been rumors that Ford CEO Alan Mulally could assume the top job over at Microsoft, whose CEO, Steve Ballmer, will retire within the year. Mulally hasn't come out and said that he's considering moving to Microsoft after (or before) his contract with Ford through 2014 ends, but sources in the know say he's the front-runner to become the tech giant's CEO and has opened up to the idea more in recent weeks, AllThingsD reports.
Mulally is no stranger to Washington, where Microsoft is located, having worked in the state for Seattle-based Boeing Commercial Airplanes as CEO years ago. He also recently was an adviser to Ballmer in an effort to realign the company's management structure to help it become more competitive in a fast-changing computer hardware and software market. And when Ford developed its Sync digital interface, it tapped Microsoft to provide the operating system, Microsoft Auto. Perhaps the least crucial connection - but nonetheless an important one - is that Mulally still owns a house in the Seattle area, and it's been said he wants to return there, according to AllThingsD.
A main challenge Microsoft's next CEO will face is how to manage the company's numerous, fractured operations and, eventually, streamline them. But even on this front, Mulally has experience; after all, it was he who ushered in an era of global Ford vehicles, after the automaker had become complacent developing and selling vehicles by region leading up to the economic recession of 2008-2009.
