Thanks for the tips.

I'm going to dig out my truck from the snow and give it a try tomorrow.

Will let you know how it goes.

I'm always amazed by this community.

Hello all, I've replaced the horn relay, tested the actual horn and it works; but I can not get the horn to sound. I'm not too familiar with the horn button and it's parts. What else should I be looking for or testing? Any other way to get the horn to work? I can't pass NY state inspection w/o one. ...

Hi all,

Slick is choking when I attempt to get up to highway speed. Where should I start to look for the problem?

Also what type gasoline are you using to filler up?

What weight motor oil is recommended for the upcoming summer?

Thanks in advance

hello all, i'm not looking to change the color. just looking to get color match for some minor touch-up work. i know this is not the original color for my truck as per the numbers, it may or may not be an original 65 ford color. i dont know. greg d - dont like the grill in blue? white better? thanks

My slick is not painted the original holly green. at some point it was repainted. Any ideas on getting color match? has a few spots that need to touched up and a few minor repair areas. I posted a few photos in the album area. thanks http://fordtruk.com/forums/album.php?cat_id=278&user_id=931

iceman - thanks for the reply

will change out and upgrade

will upgrading to relays solve my headlight flashing and dash going black problem? or does my headlight switch need to be replaced? thanks

My headlights flash when warm and if I use dimmer my dash goes black. Do I need new switch and upgrade to relays? Lmc sells heavy duty headlight harness for 30 bucks. Any opinions or reviews. New and in need of some expert advice. Thanks all.

Anyone else ever have a similar problem? Thanks

It seems that the fan switch pull out is making visible sparks when the position of the pull out is changed from off /hi/lo . Anyone ideas? Thanks

Found what i was looking for - seems like lmc catalog has some incomplete info on VIN. This site shows it's from June 65. Thks

Not sure if I'm doing this correctly

Just purchased a 1965 F100 longbed. The VIN number being F10JE700412

I show the VIN as representing a 2wd F100 built between 1961-1964 in Mahwah, NJ

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks

which switch do you think? headlight or dimmer?

newest owner of 65 long bed
