This is a Great Truck for a Total Restoration Project. I purchased it 2 days ago from a Nice Southern Gentleman in Alabama who bought it to restore but has only kept it in his enclosed hobby garage and not touched it.I brought it to Chattanooga and dropped it off with my old school ford mechanic. In 4 hours or less he has it running and almost ready for test driving. He replaced the fuel line and fuel pump in addition to adjusting the timing. I went down and spent a few mins today and he said he would be test driving it on Monday with instructions to do whatever is necessary to make it road worthy and safe.The truck has dual exhaust with nice sounding glass packs (strange as everything else looks stock). The body is very straight (better than any vehicle I have seen half this age without major restoration) and event he tail gate and bed is Great. It is obvious the was not a farm or work truck. All the glass is in good shape. The chrome bumpers look good, however with a new pain job, I would go for new chrome on the sides (custom cab) as this truck deserves it. The headliner insert and the door panel inserts are good. It appears zero rust in the floor anywhere. The instrument panel display looks great, however the dash pad has a cracks in it. Every item needed to put this truck to a perfect 10 is now available online. The 1966 version is the 4th generation F series (of 10) and has the famed Twin-I Beam suspension. One of my best friends in high school had the coolest 1966 (red also) F100 with a 352 three speed manual transmission and every since I have wanted one. A major motivation in my buying the truck is that I have a later model 5.0 v8 with Automatic-overdirve Transmission that has been rebuilt that I intend to put in the right vehicle. Just as I was making the deal to go pick-up this truck a gentleman in east Tennesse agreed to sell me a 1959 Thunderbird (which desired more than the truck). My stipulation was that he had a title or current registration as that is necessary to register here in Hamilton county Tennessee. The gentleman with the truck went and register it at my request, so I felt obligated to buy it. Now the Tbird is regiester so I can buy it.Since I have an F250 4x4 the Thunderbird is my first choice. I can hardly wait to get the truck home so I can clean it up and be able to show the quality I see here. That will happen next week weather permitting. I will update and add new pics or will sent them direct to serious bidders as requested. I will consider selling the 5.0 and Auto Tranny for $1500 more, but only as a package deal. Please only bid if you are serious. If you have less than positive feedback of 10, Do Not Bid without speaking with me first.Don't bid unless you have the funds, and or permission from wife to buy. I will try to answer all serious questions promptly.I will be listing the Truck for sale locally so I reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time. Thank You Steve in Chattanooga
