that is the first 66 F100 I had. I still have my Grandfather's 65 that he got in about 1980. I got it in about 1997 or 98 when he started having bad health. Sadly, the one pictured was traded to the wife's uncle for a family car (had son #1) and he sold it to a guy that hit a new Ford Focus "at 25 MPH" -so hard that the front wheels of the truck got pushed about three inches to the side and the bed hit the cab because the frame buckled. I had a second 66 F100 that I bought on ebay for $305, drove for about 5 years, traded for a Suzuki Intruded and sold the bike for $1950. I will NEVER again sell a Z1 or a 65/66 F series Ford.

Mine is a 69 F250 Camper special. Three speed manual on the floor and 1 ton rear end. I broke a cam in half and drove it home on 4 cylinders. I had all my tools and boxes in back. That was a 360 V 8 in 94. I found a 390 in a wrecking yard. It had just been rebuilt, still had the sticker across the head and block. "Re manufactured by Ford Motor Company, I got it for $500. I bought the truck in 87. It helped me raise my kids and can haul anything I put in her. Her name is Bertha.
It's in the family forever too.
Steve
