Re: 64 F100 Longbed FOR SALE

Thanks Fellas, I hope so too. As most of you know it more to fix one of these up than most people realise and some good follow through in MHO. It's very difficult to take on a project vehicle anymore these days. Has to be for the love. :2cents:

64 F100 Longbed FOR SALE

This is mine, has been a great timesaver for our family but it's time to move on. Thanks to all the members on here for helping me to bring this one back to life. It's got many more left and I hate to see it go. If it doesn't bring this price, we know what it cost to get one to this point, I may hav...

Re: What I learned today

Glad you found it! This is IMHO also why one should inspect old battery cables to insure they are of the proper gauge and just because they have insulation on the outside doesn't mean that they are not corroded somewhat on the inside. This goes for most old wiring inn general. Electrical stuff has a...

Re: Rocker oil inlet and outlet tubes

you are correct. They are harder to find. But you did the right thing buying that other one at a decent price. The intake and exhaust manifolds can probly be repaired if need and reused as they are often broken or damaged. You could probly sell those on EBAY and get your money back on the whole thin...

Re: 62/63 Passenger side door emblem

I have one on my original 64 longbed, not a custom cab. No insert graphic however. I've inquired to others about this before but never got a definitive answer, I thought. Doors are original. Mustangs of that era have something similar. It is an aluminum foil-like thin plate that was glued in with a ...

Re: Took me a long road trip for parts Sat.

Yep, 4 spokers are cool-bigger diameter as well. Is it true they will not work on a 1964 F100 3speed column? They need the open style column like on earlier year trucks ?
That's what I've been told. Never could get one anyway. So…I've had to move on :cry:

Re: New 63 owner

Your paintjob looks great. No way I would chance taking it to a blaster with the cab on. I know it can be covered but believe me when I say the sand can get into everything really easily. Plus with all the work you are going thru the frames going to be better being out there in the open for a thorou...

Re: my shipwrecked '63

My 64 long bed has the bellows. I've had it all apart and restored it a few years back. Still works like a champ. Also NOT a Custom Cab.

I like the idea a lot and would like to try it.

I convinced they work and don't need a sales pitch. If I were starting from square one I would...
