For Sale 1966 Ford F100 Junkyard Find

[@falconman9554]

Yep thats gona be an FE alright. And judging from the Valve covers thats probably the origonal 352 FE at that I don't think they put a 390 in them in that year not until the bumpside starting in 68 at least

[@googleusergp]

352 V8 with two barrel originally going by the VIN.

[@falconman9554]

@@googleusergp Probably is the origonal engine then. Its to the "tall" valve covers which I only ever saw on these trucks and mid 60s galaxies they switched to the "round" short style in 68 I think

[@googleusergp]

@@falconman9554 Yup, that sounds about right.

[@googleusergp]

Whoa Nelley, it's an F100 and it doesn't go..... We got the VIN, we win: F10 for F100 2WD, Y for 352 V8 with two barrel, D for Dallas, TX assembly and the rest is the production sequence which lines up with December 1965 production making this a 1966 model year truck. The Dallas plant closed in 1970. We got the tag, we can brag: 129 is the wheelbase in inches, which was considered a long wheelbase back then, H for Light Beige/Sahara Beige exterior paint (which you can see remnants of), F100 is the catalog model which is a 1/2 ton rated truck, D81 should denote Custom Cab, C for three speed manual transmission, Ford manufactured, light duty, 17 for 3.25:1 rear end ratio, non-locking, Ford manufactured, 5000 is the maximum Gross Vehicle Rating in pounds, 172 is the HP at 4000 RPM and 61 is the Dallas, TX sales district. Whoa Nelley, 352 and it's not quite over for you. V8 and maybe still great. F100 and maybe it doesn't have to go. Might not be flat, and that could be that. Was originally beige, and it's up front for a possible save. It might not get squished and the FOMOCO faithful are breathing a sigh of relief and consequently won't be pissed.

Yes I finally got to read your information. Thanks 👍

@@garymckee448 Lol, "we need the pin to (really) win".

When trucks were trucks & not luxury vehicles.

I would say 2500 max but the the truck market is through the roof right now in general .

[@chloesamclutch]

Had one back in high school. Fun truck!

Free of cancer. Got good potential.

Get her mechanically sound and drive!

[@nathonics]

Clean up the interior and put a good paint job on it and you’ll have a nice looking truck! 🛻

[@lateefcarrere1649]

4k? Are they suffering from sunstroke? I might ignore the fact that it's a Ferd, because it's an old blue pickup. They ought to appreciate anyone that will pay half, and even then w/out trying it out that might be too much. Just saying.

[@googleusergp]

Wasn't even blue originally. It was code "H" Sahara Beige/Light Beige as you can see in spots.

[@georgespangler1517]

I'm building a 66 ford pickup right now 352 only 38,000 miles built a 45 dodge pickup last year l wouldn't pass any older truck up they bring the big money if you do them right

[@505Lucky7]

I want this!

[@ClassicRideSociety]

She's at BYOT in Elm Mott Texas

[@scottbrown321]

I have one for sale, Much nicer.

[@D4x4Bronc]

Those are slightly sough after hopefully it gets rescued. Flat valve covers definitely aren't a 351w. Nice rust free truck.

[@josephg41]

Looks like most likely the original 352, If not it could be a 390 someone put in

[@dowen1511]

Dang that's a nice ford yet 👍

[@redtra236]

Lol the sticker says automatic transmission but it clearly has a 3 speed manual

[@brucebarnes8039]

U know if that was in Tampa FL it would be SOLD! In no time

[@aa64912]

That would be a wise investment or a great daily driver. I’d buff it off real good then clear coat it.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

So true Walter!

[@ronsmith4235]

Too bad it's a little far and I'm a little broke

[@nathankim7664]

If anyone needed a solid foundation to a great project, this is it! No rot, straight body, and complete truck! I bet you $100 that it has an aftermarket 8 track player in there. You just haven't poked your finger through the 8 track door!😂 I'll wait for the Google Man to decode the VIN, but 1966 is the last year for this body style. Moved onto the bumpside generation. Either this or the bumpside next to it are good trucks to buy!

[@googleusergp]

1966 model year truck made in December 1965 going by the VIN. See above/below depending on where the post lands.

[@davidlilly3564]

I really love that old school truck.

[@markhamrick9078]

That's a ride worth saving!!!👍😎

[@luistorres-jl4cd]

M looking for one 1973

[@thomasmadden1011]

Offer them 1000 dollars pickup both

[@thomasmadden1011]

Cost little fixed up

[@stevedouglas3692]

Flat valve covers looks like a 351 Cleveland pretty sure..

[@richardmitton4115]

Nope, that's an FE. The valve cover rests on both the cylinder head & intake manifold.

[@toms5oh]

I like that Porshe

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Some decent trucks there!!

[@oliverpetroski4205]

Cool old truck. Needs lots of fixing. I like more the one next to it. Im curious though, why is it suddenly all of the working class peoples cars get so overpriced no matter the condition? Same thing in my country. A fully rusted swiss cheese style 2cv or R4 or even Zastava 750 with busted engine and no brakes get priced way more than when they were new. Excuses from the owners I heard so far are just ridiculous...I had luck to get my car just before the crazy season started.

[@WildBillFlysRC]

10-15 years ago I was buying up trucks like that in AZ 500-1000 bucks all day 😎✌️ glad to see the value going up. 65 was first year for the FE

[@NotaMechanicJack]

That’s cool and all but when we gonna see you wrench?

[@googleusergp]

"We'd rather see you with tools and leave it to the Google Man to take us to VIN and tag decoding school". LOL.

[@NotaMechanicJack]

@@googleusergp Benny does wrench I get exclusive will it runs from him haha

[@googleusergp]

@@NotaMechanicJack Yes, I know he does. I was just "making a funny". LOL.

[@midnightrider4ever]

More interested in that mid 70s F-series next to it.

[@ClassicRideSociety]

I think I showed that one a while back in another video

[@shanepoole527]

One more alsome video love the ford truck and the color blue is one of my favorite colors stay safe .

man those are some not bad looking rigs they would make for some good up and comming content that is for sure!!!

[@coolbreeze5561]

Was a time I was aching for one of those however today I have the Tbird

[@haikkokorian3323]

At 0.31 it says automatic but has 3 paddles!!!

[@ClassicRideSociety]

Also said it was a 351W but it was an FE

[@googleusergp]

@@ClassicRideSociety Yes, looks like the person that did the description on the paper in the window confused a few different vehicles.

InDallas?

Elm mott texas

[@OrangeBoss-ww8eb]

will the budge on those prices? or is that why they end up in yard due to over pricing?

[@danh2134]

They don't care , if no one buys it gets crushed and sent to China for recycling

[@dowen1511]

Yup 352 or 390. Look like 352 valve covers .

[@googleusergp]

Should be the 352 V8 with a two barrel.

[@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus]

Super nice body, 352/3 on the tree. Someone will (better) give that critter a new home.

[@googleusergp]

That's correct. It was a 352 V8 with a two barrel and a three speed manual (light duty, made by Ford) transmission going by the tag on the door.

[@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus]

@@googleusergp Sure enough, still in there too. I had a '65, same exact truck except for the grille, same powertrain. I'd recognize it anywhere.

[@googleusergp]

@@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus Yup, sure thing.

[@jdpinbaytown]

352 FE, Not 351W

[@googleusergp]

Yes, the yard had it wrong. It's a 352 V8 with a two barrel going by the VIN.

[@redtra236]

they had the transmission wrong too it said automatic but its a 3 speed manual. Pretty sure that's a 352 but not certain.

[@googleusergp]

@@redtra236 Correct, the door tag shows it was a three speed manual.
