Where did you buy this F250, in Murrieta? If I'd been aware of it, I would have bought it!
I've been looking for a decent mostly original '65/66 Ranger with A/T since I sold my 1965 F100 non Ranger with 3 O/D in 2009.
btw: If debating whether to use Camper Special or Ranger fender emblem plastic inserts, if you could find a pair of 1958/60 Edsel Ranger nameplates, you could install them.
No one except died-in-the-wool Edsel nuts would know what vehicles the nameplates came from.

Cleaned up visors some. One on the right was cleaned and the one on the left is ready for cleaning.
Giving it a good scrub
Now it looks better
Passengers armrest is in good shape but drivers is shot. There is quite a contrast between colors of the visors and the armrests.
And just before pulling the tailgate a few pics of the mounting.

I am prolly gonna call about the Edsel. It's as close to me as they get.
If she will drive without to much money as is I will drive her into the ground
over the course of the few years I have left. She reminds me of my Last Wife
and driving her into the ground would be so fitting.

These on the gold truck are of the padded variety, so that matches up. They might look like unpadded in the pictures, not sure.
The unpadded visors have stitching around the edges as I'm sure you know...

I'm wondering where I'd start looking to find "a pair of 1958/60 Edsel Ranger nameplates" ???, Cheers and Best Regards Graeme...

Just a quick update. I got the tailgate removed. It's pretty straight. A couple of small dents on the top edge. I believe this is original to the truck. I've removed some of the paint on the top edge to prep it for dent removal.
Seats have a tag that is hog ringed to the underneath side of each. C4Z8-6563100-D and C4Z8-6563101-D if I'm seeing it clearly.
