THIS STUNNING F100 IS LIKE NEW FROM TOP TO BOTTOM WITH A FULL FRAME OFF NUT AND BOLT RESTORATION THAT WAS DONE TO A VERY HIGH QUALITY AND FAR BETTER THEN ANYTHING FORD HAD COMING OFF THE LINE IN 1966! THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER SEEN RAIN SINCE THE RESTORATION AND HAS HAD 3300 BREAK IN MILES CLICKED ON THE ODOMETER, SO ANY AND ALL BUGS THAT USUALLY COME UP AFTER A FULL RESTORATION HAVE BEEN WORKED OUT. THIS RESTORATION WAS DONE OUT OF A LABOR OF LOVE AND WOULD COST FAR MORE TO BRING A TRUCK TO THIS LEVEL THEN WHAT THE TRUCK WOULD BE WORTH. WE BOUGHT THIS TRUCK FROM THE OWNER WHO HAD THE FRAME OFF RESTORATION DONE AND HE DID IT IN MEMORY OF HIS FATHER. THIS WAS HIS DADS TRUCK AND ONCE HE PASSED IT STAYED IN THE FAMILY AND HE GAVE IT A FULL ORIGINAL STOCK RESTORATION TO THE WAY IT WAS WHEN HIS DAD BOUGHT IT NEW, EVEN FULLY RESTORED THE ORIGINAL FORD INSTALLED TOOL BOXES TO THE HIGHEST QUALITY RATHER THEN REPLACE THEM WITH NEW MODERN STYLE. HE GAVE US SOME BEFORE PICS SHOWN IN THE AD ALONG WITH SOME OF THE IN PROCESS RESTORATION PHOTOS THAT SHOWED THIS 66 F100 WAS A NICE SOLID AND NOT ABUSED ORIGINAL SURVIVOR TRUCK THAT WAS A PERFECT CANDIDATE FOR RESTORATION. NO EXPENSE WAS SPARED AND IT WAS A PAIN STAKING DETAILED RESTORATION THAT TOUCHED EVERY NUT AND BOLT. ALL THE BODY PANELS AND SHEET METAL IS ORIGINAL TO THE TRUCK ALONG WITH THE ENTIRE DRIVE TRAIN. THE FRAME OFF RESTORATION WAS FINALLY COMPLETE TEN YEARS AGO IN 2007, BUT LOOKS FRESHLY DONE, DUE TO THE QUALITY OF JOB DONE, THE CARE IT HAS RECEIVED SINCE COMPLETION AND THE LOW MILES CLICKED ON THE ODOMETER SINCE IT WAS FINISHED. THIS TRUCKS PAINT AND BODYIS FLAWLESS WITH NO ISSUES OR IMPERFECTIONS POPPING OUT THROUGH THE PAINT AND THE BEST PART ABOUT A RESTORATION LIKE THIS IN WHAT A LOT OF PEOPLE REFER TO AS A MATURED RESTORATION IS ANY IMPERFECTIONS OR CHEMICAL REACTIONS THATMAYHAPPEN UNDER THE PAINTWOULD HAVE ALREADY SURFACED AND SHOWN THEIR UGLY HEAD. THIS OFTEN HAPPENS DUE TO THINGS OVER LOOKED OR CORNERS CUT DURING THE BODY RESTORATION AND THEY SOMETIMES TAKE 6-MONTHS TO A YEAR TO RE-SURFACE DEPENDING ON CLIMATE AND EXPOSURE TO SUN, SUCH AS ROCK CHIPS NOT PROPERLY ADDRESSED WILL SURFACE AS LITTLE DIMPLES UNDER THE PAINT, CRACKS IN PAINT DUE FROM CONDENSATION LEFT BEFORE PAINT, ALONG WITH WHAT IS CALLED FISH EYES IN THE PAINT OR LITTLE BUBBLES IN THE PAINT DUE TO POOR PREP WORK OR BAD CHEMICAL REACTIONS IN THE PRIMER, FILLER OR PAINT. THIS F100'S PAINT IS FULLY SETTLED, CURED AND IS LIKE GLASSWITH NONE OF THESE ISSUES. ONCE THE TRUCK WAS COMPLETED THE OWNER ENTERED IT IN SEVERAL SHOWS AND INCLUDED PICTURES OF THE TROPHY'S, BUT WANTED TO KEEP THEM FOR MEMORY SAKE. IT GOT FIRST PLACE AT THE 2007 BOWEN SCARF FORD AND MUSTANG SHOW FOR TRUCK CLASS, TWO TROPHY'S AT PORT GARDENER AUTO CLUB SHO, ONE FOR BEST PAINT AND ONE FOR BEST STOCK TRUCK, BEST TRUCK AT 2008 SUMMER CLASSIC SHOW AND IT GOT FIRST PLACE IN IT'S CLASS AT THE 8TH ANNUAL SEATTLE ROADSTER SHOW IN QUEST FIELD WHICH WAS PROBABLY THE BIGGEST SHOW IT WAS ENTERED.
PLEASE READ ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE IN DEPTH DESCRIPTIONS AND SCROLL TO THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE TEXT TO SEE THE 180 LARGE DETAILED PICS. THERE IS ALSO A COMBINED 3 PART CONDITION, COLD START AND DRIVING VIDEO AT THE VERY BOTTOM JUST AFTER THE LAST PIC.
THIS F100 WAS PURCHASED NEW AT FOGLE MOTORS IN DRY EASTERN WASHINGTON ON MARCH, 12TH 1966 AND HAS BEEN IN THIS STATE IT'S ENTIRE LIFE. EASTERN WASHINGTON IS KNOWN WITH IT'S CLIMATE FOR SOME OF THE BEST PRESERVED AND RUST FREE VEHICLES AND THIS TRUCK WAS NO EXCEPTION. WE LUCKILY DO NOT USE ANY SALT ON OUR WINTER ROADS THAT HELP TO KEEP CLASSIC'S RUST FREE & ALIVE. THIS F100 AMAZINGLY STILL HAS IT'S ORIGINAL OWNERS MANUAL, ALL DEALER BROCHURES SHOWING COLORS AND OPTIONS AND A FULLY RESTORED 5TH SPARE. PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO LOOK THIS TRUCK OVER CAREFULLY AS IT TRULY IS AS NICE AND LIKE NEW AS YOU CAN GET.

THE BODY THEN WAS WET SANDED AND BUFFED TO PERFECTIONIN ADEEP AND SMOOTH HIGH GLOSS SPRINGTIME YELLOW FINISH THAT MAKES THIS TRUCK LOOK LIKE IT WAS JUST DIPPED INTO A CAN OF BUTTERNUT YELLOW PAINT.AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURES THE ORIGINAL WHITE GRILLE AND BUMPERS WERE TREATED TO ALL THE SAME TREATMENT AS THE REST OF THE BODY.INSTEAD OF PAINTING THEM LIKE THE FACTORY DID WITH A THINNER LESS QUALITY PAINT THEN THE BODY HAD, HE HAD THEM BROUGHT DOWN TO BARE METAL, SHOT WITH THE SAME PPG PRIMER, PPG WIMBLEDON WHITE, COVERED IN CLEAR THEN WET SANDED AND BUFFED BEFORE BEING PUT BACK ON THE BODY.

SINCE THE RESTORATION THIS TRUCK HAS NEVER SEEN ANYTHING, BUT SUNNY DAYS AND HAS CLICKED ON JUST OVER 3300 MILES. UNDER THE HOOD AND ALONG THE UNDERSIDE IS IN AMAZING AND CLEAN CONDITION THANKS TO NEVER SEEING RAIN AND THE THE MOTOR HAS JUST MINOR DIRT THAT WOULD CLEAN RIGHT OFF FROM DRIVEN.

THIS TRUCK IS A TRUE DRIVERS TRUCK WITH NO ISSUES AND WON'T PUT SWEAT DROPS ON YOUR FOREHEAD IF YOU GET STUCK IN TRAFFIC LIKE ALOT OF OLDER VEHICLES TEND TO. I WOULD TRUST THIS TRUCK ON ANY NICE COUNTRY BACK ROAD DRIVE WITH NO CELL SERVICE TO THOSE TOUGH DAILY COMMUTES. IF THIS F100 HAS BEEN SITTING THE CHOKE ONLY NEEDS TO BE PULLED A THIRD OF THE WAY OUT AND WITH NOT A TOUCH TO THE GAS PEDAL IT FIRES RIGHT UP ON FIRST CRANK. ALL THE PEDALS FEEL EXACTLY LIKE YOU WOULD EXPECT AND HOPE THEY WOULD WITH A NICE TIGHT AND SMOOTH OPERATION. THE ENGINE IS VERY RESPONSIVE WITH A CRISP THROTTLE THAT DOES NOT FALL ON IT'S FACE, STUMBLE OR LOAD UP IN TRAFFIC. THE BRAKES STOP SMOOTH, STRAIGHT AND HAVE ALL BEEN ADJUSTED PROPERLY, SO THERE IS NO PULLING OR FADING PEDAL. THE CLUTCH OPERATES AD FEELS EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD WITH A NICE AND TIGHT PEDAL THAT GRABS AND DISENGAGES RIGHT WERE IT SHOULD. THE TRANS SHIFTS SMOOTHLY THROUGH AL GEARS ON A UP OR DOWN SHIFT AND HAS A TIGHT SHIFT PATTERN. ALL GAUGES AND LIGHTS WORK PROPERLY, THE FLUIDS ARE FRESH AND THE TIRES ARE LIKE NEW. THIS A TRUE NEEDS NOTHING CLASSIC THAT IS READY TO BE DRIVEN.
