- Hey All, In this video we get one of our newest trucks. Were naming Marlin. Its a 1965 Ford F100 that is 100% Original. We got this bad boy from the original owner. He had just got it back on the road since its been sitting since spring of 1992.
Thanks for Greg for getting her transported from its farm in Virginia, Down to us in Miami. Once we got her it was time to get busy. We did our Super Clean, Magic Eraser Bath & got it all cleaned up. This truck is in such great condition. All the panels are straight & have such good paint/ patina on them.
The truck features a 240 Inline 6 Cylinder Motor & 3 Speed Standard (Column shift). Its a Custom Cab Model so the interior has all the bells & whistles of 1965.
This truck is looking for a new home so if you in the market. Email me for more info SL@FordEra.com

To me this was the most beautiful truck ever made.
Just leave it the way it is brother
Now that is a cool, old truck! I'd drive that just the way it is, cap and all!
My Uncles 65 F100 with a 352 4V 3 on the tree is what I learned to drive on way back in the 70's Green and White with dual exhaust with glass packs
Nice truck!! My dad taught me how to drive column shift. ( 1970 )
I learned how to drive in that truck...3 on a tree...very unique old truck...ours was red.
My dad had one just like it with a 353 V8 and 3-on-the-tree. Converted it to floor shifter and blue-printed the motor during a ground-up resto. Great truck!!
Love it I'm 50 years old but my dad had a 65 short bed with a camper full interior and a bad a$$ fe block that shook the ground back when I was a boy. To young to appreciate it I was scared of it very radical cam. Flagstaff Az.
Thats so great
What a gem. Was probably snug in a barn for 40 years lol. Man I'd love to do what you guys do. I have a '96 F-250, these trucks are a blast to work on.
Great ‘65 F100. Makes me miss my old 65 long wheelbase Wimbledon White one👍
My Dad bought two Government surplus former Air Force 1965 F100 shortbed stepsides with the 240 6 and 3 speed on the column...drove one from 1973 until 1978 and parted it out to put the 2nd one on the road from 1978 until 1990.
He was in the midst of a body off restoration of the 2nd truck when he passed away in 2001.......He found a 4 speed manual out of another parts '65 F100 and converted the 2nd truck from 3 spd to 4 spd.
U cant beat the smooth ride of a twin i beam i use to own a 66 with a 390
Great looking old Ford truck
We agree!
Had a 65 shortbed bought at a ohio odot auction for 125.00 had no back window and column shift broken and had all fixed in a day. great truck
My neighbors and I were wondering where ol' Blue went. We saw that truck in Gloucester va. On rt.17 For sale last fall, I called and talked to the guy then my neighbor called him.
Having a six in it keep me from buying it. Great little truck,glad to see it got a good home.
Very cool! Im glad to have gotten it
What a sweet little truck I love the smurf blue, it cleaned up so good! I like the idea of keeping the 240 and doing some period correct upgrades. I also think lowing it just a bit would look pretty sweet but I really do like it just how it is. Great vid as usual keep up the good work!
Thanks 👍
@@FordEra How much are you asking for her..??
Awesome ford f100 fresh from the farm
Thanks bud
WoW!!!! Dang, I want that one
come get it
@@FordEra If I didn’t have a ‘53 f100, a ‘69 f250 and a ‘72 f350 all needing to be finished I’d be there in a flash!
Very beautiful 65 Ford F100 brother.
It sure is!
@@FordEra Got any plans for it.
Love it. I really want that 1971 camper
I want it!!! wish I could find something like that here in idaho
We can ship it
Great video. This black wheels will look good on the 67 Coyote F-100 ...
Awesome find
I grew up driving a 65 F100 3 on the tree with overdrive.
A cut and buff would definitely bring that paint back around. Looks great as is too.
I think so too! Just didnt have time yet
I had a 65 Mercury half ton, i put a v8 in from a 63 Mercury Meteor and buckets and mags and reget selling it now for next to nothing, maybe my cousin still has it- he wanted it for a farm truck 🚚🛻🤔
Factory bed tool box on a short bed has to be really rare.
Matching original radio even and other headlights switch and heater control knobs ,,, windshield wipers maybe cigarette lighter engine choke air control might be the one with the chome cover over it well maybe that's where the cigarette 🚬 lighter is. Neat pickup.
WOWOWOW
Thats a killer truck!! Man wish I could get that from you. Love that cap.....
You can
@@FordEra No I can't trust me Lol
I have a similar cap on a 69 I just picked up.......
@@moosemoseler976 Sweet. Im not a big chevy guy but I just got a 79-80 GMC grill in mint condition it was hanging up in a guys shop like 30ft up with other grills he said it was there since the early 90s and wasn't sure if it was ever installed I still need to fine line detail it then figure out what I wanna do with it
Man that is a nice truck! And my name is Marlin. I love that camper top too. I already own four slicks(my favorite body) or I might would have to come see you. I have a 65' that I bought from original owner in 1981. It is a Custom Cab with no dashpad. Has all the trim.
Right on
I would drop a 5.0 roller in it with an aod behind it and disc brake conversion and drive it, cheap simple and reliable
I would take the 6 cylinder, port and polished the factory cylinder head, add a cam, some long tube headers on it with some true dual exhaust and man you have you're self a vicious sound 232 Inline Six.
thats the idea
@@FordEra How much power do you think that 232 Inline Six will make with all of those upgrades.
Really cool find! It appears that the padded dash is missing, which I was understanding came on all the Custom Cabs. I would be on the horn with you about purchasing it but....I have to dang many projects already in the works.
I know how it goes
Cool truck I'm going to try that super clean and erasers just cleaning it up a bit probably the right thing to do. My truck is black I'm hoping it works on black
It does
Simi is a great camera man
Love the truck. I just bought a 64 F100. I’m having a hard time finding parts.
nice truck
Great little truck! I'd find a better spot to show it off. That old couch and garbage in the grass doesn't do that truck justice.
without registration and plates i dont want to drive it far. This was around the corner from my warehouse
Have you ever tried washing the "patina" trucks with soap and water, and then using a good paint cleaner like Wizards, or even Mother's? I think it might od the same thing, but better. I'm impressed you can drive 3 on the tree; most people are like Simmy and have no idea how it works. lol You described how it works well; the same as on the floor, it's just on the column.
Ive used both wizards & mothers and for original paint this is the best i found. I learnt to drive on 3 on the tree
Or 242000 miles who knows but it's a good survivor congrats .
there was paperwork that showed the milage to be real
Virginia truck!
Those are the fourth generation Ford F-series pickups & they were produced from 1961 through 1966.
I love them old fords but is there one of them without an exhaust manifold leak? 🤷🏻♂️ i'd still love to find one like it 👍
Great video, love the truck, I’d upgrade the brakes to disc brake and a dual brake master cylinder, keep the six cylinder engine in it, just make it a runner. Love the color of the truck, it’s very similar to the original harbor blue color my 1970 bronco came with from the factory. I wonder if you would be able to do fuel injections on it?
Yea it could use all of those things.
@@FordEra what are you asking for the truck ? I’m interested in one .. thank you !!
I have a 66 F-100 long bed with 54k actual, documented miles that is way cleaner than that one. Not one bit of rust on mine and dent free. Perfect bed, tailgate, interior...even the original floor mat with not even a wear mark on it. 240 ci 3 on the tree.
Good for you man, sounds like a nice truck
Bragging or complaining ??!
Most vehicles pre 1990 had no 100k indicator on the speedo. Everyone claims their old ride is low mileage for sure.
That must a late 65 because Ford didn't introduce the twin I beam front suspension until 1966. that truck should be left just the way it is. it's a perfect example of an AWESOME time capsule. with the exceptions of any repairs that need to be done to it. and anything that it needs to get it back to the way it left the Ford dealership in 1965. you have to remember that there are getting to be less and less of those trucks around in that condition every day. soon there will be no more examples like that around, and when they are gone they are gone forever. and no one will be able to acquire one like that again, that in itself makes it very special. that canopy looks very similar to the Alpine canopies. that were made in Washington State during that time period. those also are becoming very difficult to find especially in such fantastic condition. that truck is actually a museum piece, especially because it's a 65 with the Twin I beam suspension and in the condition it's in.
1965 was the first year of Twin-I-Beam, 352FE V8 in place of Y-block and alternators replaced generators.The cab floor also completely different, step no longer inside the cab on F100. I own a 64' a 65' and 2- 66's
Ford introduced the twin I-beam in 65 so its not that rare to have it. If I keep the truck it will definitely not stay stock. Thats why i put it for sale so that someone else could keep it stock or do what they want
I kinda want to see a slammed f100 with a 4.9 i6 that has been supercharged
That would be awesome
The distributor is that still points ignition maybe you should look in to putting electronic
240 straight 6
🙏
That's awesome! what part of Va. did it come out of? I'm in Va.
Was down in Gloucester
Be nice to know how much you paid for it and how much you want for it after some elbow grease??
What I paid I never like to disclose but as is without any more work I would be asking $15k OBO
I would change the oil and filter before I even drove it.
already been done
He'll you could leave the keys in that old girl! Most thrives would be confused as he'll how to drive it!!
Are you ready to sell the 65F 100 yet?
its long sold
i know where a truck just as nice if not nicer is sitting it need a tune up i can get it for 300 bucks rust free no body damage at all with tool box on side no surface rust full trim set nice chrome bumper on front has 4 speed on floor with a 352 fe block . but right now i am building a 68 chevy and a 70 high boy then i have a few camaros i want to build but i do have a 428 sitting that would go right in it think it would make a good street truck
thats awesome
Jeffery you are ass deep in "shevy shit " 😒 think how much better life would be with a "rust " free F100 unbelievable right?
Hey what are you asking for the truck ? I’m looking for one and I’d be interested.. please let me know
email me
$6000 if you can get it shipped to Dallas Texas
I guess you dont know what trucks cost or how expensive shipping is. But thank you for watching
Nice, btw, if you have the ability, its worth a lot more as a transformed short bed 4x4! Just saying!!
Thanks for the tip!
Did it sell??? How much
not sold, email me for info
You mean to tell me no one knows how to drive. A. Twe on. The twe Haha. They were common when I was. Young. I'm 67
The truck that you have at your shop is a custom cab camper special deluxe it is a one of a kind from the factory if you live it as is it well be worth the money due your self a favor and make a call to the barret Jackson auto auction people and get a an accurate appraisal for the truck and you will be getting a big surprise when you call them due not wate your life is going to change and you will probably fall off your chair when you hear what they say about the truck
Please just do the maintenance and leave as is. It looks great just the way it is if it was mine that's what I would do just saying
1 owner cool. But unclear on 1 thing. The original.owner got a wild hair to get it running and do brakes at....(even if he was 20 when he bought a brand new truck) approximately 80 yrs old? You mean you bought it from the original...family? That would make sense.
Yes I got it from the original family. When i say 1 owner i mean its only had 1 person title it before
Gotvha. Yep i bet grandpa did not take part in the selling lol.
It will probably have ghetto wheels on it in a week ,,and screwed up body its perfect just rebuild drive line leave as is
I guess you didnt hear what i said the plan was. always nice to get hated on without any cause
Solomon I am sending you this email to let you know that it is very important to keep this truck like it is please call the barret Jackson auto auctions people as soon as you can and you will get a big surprise for your call due not wate
Starts driving... stupid music starts playing. UGH. STOP DOING THIS!!!! We want to hear the truck, not music!!!!
theres nothing to hear, the truck is quieter then a sewing machine
