1965 Shortbed Fleetside- Pickup Truck- California Survivor- Patina on 2040-cars
San Martin, California, United States
|
I bought this car from Felton, CA with the intention of bringing it to Glendale, CA to restore to it's original glory. I have a clear California title with me that will be overnighted to the buyer after funds are cleared. You or your transporter can pick the truck up from the storage yard. Unfortunately I started too many other projects before this one. It's your chance to buy this rare truck. The truck is located about 500 miles away from me so I have not personally seen it. It is being stored at Copart auto auction yard. If you would like to see it in person or send an inspector to see the truck let me know and I will tell you how you can get access to it. The following is the previous owners listing for this truck.
Its very RARE being a Shortbed fleetside. This is a PERFECT truck to build and most desirable model to have being a fleetside shortbed with a factory 352 V8. Restored this trucks are bringing BIG $$$. As many know, the shortbed fleetside's are A MUST HAVE! I was told 1965 was the first year of the twin I-Beam suspension. The truck is being sold as is not running. Its been sitting for several years, I have not attempted to start it, it may be as simple as a battery some fresh gas or ? I have no idea on the mechanical condition of the truck that's why its being sold as is, NOT RUNNING. Is has some cancer as shown in the pictures such as the inside of the bed, the hood, the roof and some minor spots. All the metal is available. The restoration would be easy address or fix compared to all the others I have seen. This would make a great father son project, birthday or graduation present or someone just looking for a really neat project. It has the 352 V8 and automatic transmission. The odometer shows 42,318 and have no idea if there original or not. As you can see the body is SUPER STRAIGHT and best of all the truck is really complete and all the hard to find pieces are original and intact. As far as the history, It was sold new in California in 1965, was painted once in the 1980's ans sat for many years. It has a tachometer and gauges which is a nice addition. This is a SERIOUS OPPORTUNITY for those that know about these trucks. If you have any questions let me know or leave a phone number and I will contact you.

2015 Ford F-150 claims segment's best payload, towing ratings
Mon, 29 Sep 2014While we are set to drive the new, 2015 Ford F-150 in the coming days, there's a big piece of news on the latest-generation of the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter pickup coming out of Dearborn, and it focuses on the truck's hauling and towing abilities.
The new F-150 will have a maximum payload of 3,300-pounds (V8 models), and, perhaps more importantly, a 12,200-pound tow rating (EcoBoost V6 models), which for the first time are compliant with the Society of Automotive Engineer's J2807 standards. Those best-in-class figures are significant feathers in Ford's cap as the Detroit Three continue duking it out for the title of top pickup.
"As founding members of the SAE trailer towing committee, we will meet SAE trailer towing standards," Ford's Aaron Miller told Autoblog.
Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.
