Re: HOA VS 1965 F-250 Owner

At first I was thinking "why would anyone sign a contract that would prevent you from having a classic old truck" but then, after watching, it doesn't look like his truck is breaking any of the rules. No body damage. The contract doesn't say anything about paint and surface quality. That S...

Re: She's gone.

I'm not gonna lie. My eyes teared up while reading this. 2 weeks ago, my wife let our 8 year old red Doberman Ruby out to play with the grandsons. When she called to her, she didn't come running like she always had. We went to look for her and I found her laying in the back yard. She was gone but st...

Re: Keep your Ford N. I. C. E.

OK, this made me laugh - literally. I'm not a purist by any means. I've been a GM guy all my life. :shock: Most of my family has worked for GM and drive GM products. Check the user name and then do the math - lol!! Oddly enough, I used my retirement bonus to buy a used truck - a 98 Ford F150. I love...

Re: Hey Kid,, this is what talking about few weeks ago in Ch

Those are great ideas! I especially like the idea of using the reefer box in the summer. I wish my township would allow me to have shipping containers on my property. Evidently someone in the past gave them reason to write an ordinance forbidding them in this township. I even went as far as to ask &...

Re: removing the ignition switch

I know this is a old post but I believe in keeping related info in the same location. I apologize if this is considered "hijacking" a thread. I'm having a problem with the ignition assembly rotating in the dash on my 65. For the most part, it's pretty snug but sometimes the whole assembly ...

Re: Left over parts

I'm looking for a right side (passenger) front turn signal assembly (housing, bezel and lens) as well as the right side (steel) headlight bezel for a 65.

Also curious what you're asking for the instrument panel and a right side hood hinge.

Thanks.

Re: 65 Inner Fender Questions.

Wow guys - thanks for the input. I can't tell you guys how much stress you've relieved. I've really been sweatin this build because I wasn't sure if I would even be able to find the parts - new repros or used. My intention is to keep the patina but make it safe and enjoyable to drive for my wife and...

I know this is an older post but - WOW! What a great idea. Really thinking outside of the box Dave! Thank you for sharing. Have there been any more updates or modifications to this system? It's been a couple years now - any issues with this setup or anything you wish you'd have done differently? I s...

Looking for inner fenders for a 1965

I need both inner fenders for my 1965. I know I can find repro outer fenders and core support and even the left side inner fender if I can't find OE, but for some reason nobody makes a repro right side inner fender for the 65 and, as a result, the OE stuff is like finding hens teeth. As I said in an...

65 Inner Fender Questions.

My 65 is going to need both inside and outside fenders on both sides. The Michigan road salt demons have done their worst and I doubt there is any chance of recovery for these things. I also need a core support. My question is whether inner fenders (and/or core support) from any other years will wor...

Lookin good. I'm anxious to see what those tires look like on the truck. Any progress lately? I know how life gets in the way sometimes. Just hope you're still pluggin away at it. Power washing the crud away can make a huge difference in how it looks - and how motivated one can be. I know when I fin...

Hey thanks for this link. I've been considering a fiberglass cover but I think this would be a much better (and certainly more affordable) way for me to go. Thanks again!!
