1965 F100 Custom Cab Pickup Truck
Why This Car Is Special
The 1965 F100 Custom Cab pickup truck we have here at Skyway
Classics is one of the iconic trucks and a pinnacle of the heavily
stylized 60's F-series trucks.
It is a very nice restored piece but has a modified and upgraded
drivetrain a muscle car and is painted Arcadian Blue and Wimbledon
White paint, which is correct for this truck, it has a great pastel
look that was probably a great choice in the mid-1960s.
Mechanical
The top engine in 1965 was a 352 cubic inch V8 but ours has been
upgraded with a performance built 390 cubic inch big block engine
and a ton of parts and accessories on it including aluminum heads,
aluminum intake, Holley performance carb, MSD ignition box,
performance spark plug wires,
big air breather, chrome open element air cleaner, power steering
and brakes, and more and is backed by a column shifted automatic
transmission and a sturdy rear end.
It is dressed in Ford Blue and looks great in the painted and
detailed engine compartment while
its easy to drive and rides well with the Twin I-Beam front
suspension soaking up the bumps.
It has chrome wheels and center caps with raised white letter
Cooper Cobra Radial GT tires that give it a great footprint and
fill the fenders.
Interior
The bright blue/white bench seat interior looks fresh with a snug
fitting seat cover on the original bench, heavy-duty floor
covering, lots of chrome on the instrument panel, a handsome black
steering wheel, engine-turned dash panel surrounds the primary
gauge panel, with secondary controls in a neat row underneath.
It also has the blue/white vinyl door panels that match the
exterior with an upgraded Craig AM/FM stereo radio system in the
dash for better sounds while you are cruising.
Exterior
Our Ford Pickup has the great two-tone blue paint on the lower side
panels and top with the white on the hood and continuing along the
top side of the truck.
It has a nice shine and a great overall look with great chrome trim
and badging, grille, stainless, and a black painted bed.
