Description : Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is pleased to present this clean yellow 1965 Ford F100 Pickup truck. Ford introduced a dramatically new style of pickup in 1961 with the fourth-generation F-Series. Longer and lower than its predecessors, these trucks had increased dimensions and new engine and gearbox choices. In 1965, the F-Series was given a significant mid-cycle redesign, resulting in a completely new platform, including the introduction of Ford's "Twin-I-Beam" front suspension. This 57-year-old truck is quite the survivor! Its original Springtime Yellow paint has been freshened up with a brighter, sunnier yellow, with a nice red pinstripe that adds a nice "tie in" with its red wheels. This '65 F100 is powered by a 352 CID V8, which is backed by a 3-speed manual transmission. The column shift 3-speed throws off some folks who have a difficult time conceptualizing how a "3 on the tree" works, but it's like riding a bike - once you've done it, you don't forget. The interior of this vintage F100 has been freshened up a bit, with a recently recovered bench seat and a new fuel tank. The soft cloth of the bench is certainly unlikely to fry one's back on a hot day, unlike the original vinyl would have. This '65 F100 has had some other recent love - an oil pressure gauge was added, the transmission was serviced, the clutch was replaced (and flywheel resurfaced), the rear end was serviced, and a new set of 235/75R15 Goodyear Wrangler Trailrunner AT radials were installed; so this truck is ready to serve its next owner for years to come!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
