I bought this truck from its home in Wyoming and had it shipped to Charleston, SC inside an enclosed trailer to take wedding pictures a few months ago. This is its the story from the previous owner in WY...

"In 1965 an Elderly gentleman in western Wyoming bought a brand new 1965 Ford 100 and he only used it to go fishing and he babied it until he passed away in the late 1970's his wife kept the truck and their son in law would take it out and drive it every time he came to visit which was 2-3 times a year, Until one time in the late 1980's when she said "why don't you just take that truck home with you" so he did and he too babied and cared for the truck until his children were starting to drive and couldn't wait to drive the Ford truck. Well he just couldn't see the kids using the truck and possibly maybe damaging it! So he said maybe I should find the Ford a new home? And that's what he did. This is where the story gets interesting......A Gentleman that is our close friend (small town) and also drives for our company time to time and use to be the director of the Chamber of Commerce bought the truck in 1993 from the son in law and was so proud of the truck! And why not at that time it had only 24,000 miles on it and was like new. He paraded around town it working for the Chamber and also took extremely great care of it as well until he retired in 2004 that's when he sold it to a Gentleman in Burley, Idaho for some reason he lost the truck to the Bank and that is where the owner now bought it and babied it as well to this date and even added a few extra's like a 4 barrel intake manifold and a 4 barrel carburetor, a spray in bed liner, higher gears in the rear axle for better highway travel. The Oil bath air cleaner original manifold and original gears go with the truck. So when the Gentleman brought us the truck to sell and our guy saw it and said "that's my old truck"!! Just goes to show us all how small the world really is."

Now it's time for the 5th owner to take over! This truck has been in western Wyoming and southern Idaho its entire life. It is a rust free Truck and drive and runs like new!

Power steering was added as well during its life. The odometer reads 48,212 but has stopped working about 4-5,000 miles ago. "Not documented but the owner claims about 52,000 miles on the truck"

I have kept the truck in the same condition and the truck remains perfect. For a vehicle almost 50 years old, I have been pleasantly surprised that it starts right up and runs like a "new" truck. The odometer is still stuck but I couldn't have put more than a few hundred miles in the past 6 months. The higher gears in the back end and power steering are a welcome update and the 352 V-8 has plenty of power for whatever you could need.

The original parts still come with the truck.

Highlights:

352 V-8
4-barrel Carb/Intake Manifold
Power steering
4-speed on the floor
"highway" gears
Spray in bedliner
Custom wood bed rails
Immaculate paint and body 

This truck is ready to drive and takes unleaded 87 gas. Its a classic but is ready for modern driving.

This is a true gem with not even a hint of rust


Let me know if you have any questions at all. This truck is a true "find" and gets looks and compliments on a daily basis. 
 
Happy Bidding!!

Ford dominates most-stolen SUV list

Tue, 17 Jun 2014



The Ford Escape leads the NICB's list with 1,421 examples stolen.
If you drive a recent Ford SUV or crossover, you may want to keep a watchful eye out for thieves - especially if you live in the New York metro area or in Detroit. A new study from the National Insurance Crime Bureau has named three Ford models as the most likely vehicles in their genre to be stolen, with CUVs in general being especially attractive to bandits.

Jeremy Clarkson chooses his top 10 cars for 2015 and 2016

Mon, Aug 15 2016

Jeremy Clarkson is well-known for his role as co-host on the old Top Gear. But the frontman of the upcoming Amazon Prime Show, The Grand Tour, also has a standing column for The Sunday Times in the UK where he reviews the latest cars. With fall nearing, Clarkson put out a list of his top-10 cars from this year and 2015. Some on the list will surprise you, while others represent everything we've come to love about Clarkson. In order to make his list of star cars, the vehicles must offer what co-host James May calls "the fizz." The vehicles, Clarkson claims, have something that is out of the ordinary. Whether it's the car's looks, the way it gets up to speed, or its high-tech gadgets, Clarkson's top-10 list is made up of items that are more than just tools for getting from point A to B. So which ones made the list? Head over to the column in The Sunday Times.

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.
