Ford F-100 1965 Description

After years of living in their competitors' shadows vintage Ford pickups are finally getting their due. From the front grille to the tailgate this Purple Ford F100 has all the character on the outside that you would expect from a classic truck. However what seperates this truck from others is it comes equipped with all the horsepower you could ever need. Let this truck show you what a '65 pickup can really do.While we know the original paint color would have been a turquoise color the new paint color really catches everyone's attention. While it is not the plum crazy purple from the Mopar line of paints this plum purple finish is superb. The paint doesn't mask the curves of this rare flareside pickup but instead shows them off along with the beautiful chrome on the grille. The front fenders have the expected curve that this era of F-100 trucks had. The taillights have a custom look that keep them low key and does not distract from the incredible wooden truck bed. The bed is extremely sharp due to the stainless steel trim accents. The truck bed also houses custom boxes to hold the fuel cell and the battery. Inside the interior has been upgraded with all the amenities we've come to expect in a modern vehicle. The grey cloth interior is accented with purple to nicely tie into the exterior. Everything is clean and crisp including the carpets door panels and the custom center console. The dash is painted the same plum purple as the outside allowing the grey interior to brighten the inside of the truck. Power seats power windows power locks and power antenna are welcome additions. Not to mention the addition of an aftermarket AM/FM/CD player and the Vintage Air A/C make this interior a great place to log miles from. Trucks have always been a great home for big block power and that's certainly the case with this Ford. You will never have to question the power lying in wait under your right foot thanks to a powerful 429ci V8 under the hood. Providing a nice overall look to the engine is an Aluminum pulley system aluminum valve covers and headers and accents to match the color of the truck. Bolted to the potent 429 is a 3 speed automatic C6 transmission that channels the power to a Currie 9" narrowed rear end. Power steering and power brakes are a welcome addition in a truck like this and with discs at all four corners it offers fantastic stopping power to match its performance. 3.50 gears give it a lot of punch when needed as well as the ability to cruise on the highway if needed. At the front you'll find familiar 15" rims however the back is sitting on massive Cragar Drag Star Wheels measuring 33x21.50. If you are in the market for an affordable fun truck with the anatomy of a powerful muscle car then look no further. Call today!
