I'm just curious how many people have the same "problem" I do. Namely, you find it hard to pass up a deal on a nice old for truck. I happen to have 5 and a half. 3 65's, 2 66's and one nice spare cab from a 66. Sometimes, my wife does not seem to be as happy as I am when I find another one, lol. I can't seem to get enough of them.

65 F-100 Custom Cab long bed
66 F-100 Short Bed 360 toploader 4 speed

 

And here I thought I was bad....
66 M100 - parts
66 F100 - was DD
66 F100 - More parts
Not bad for a 20 year old...My mother actually found me a 63 F100 Uni for $250 which I might go for...

Also 71 VW for parts for 69 VW dune buggy

 

I only have one (bought new in 1965) and don't plan on buying another unless it's a Crew Cab.

I love these old trucks, and it's not a matter of space...parking space, that is.

When I bought it, I was 20 yrs old, 6-6...180 lbs. In other words: agile.

Now...43 years later, "Arthur" has arrived, and I'm 100 lbs. heavier, so fitting in that thing is neigh on impossible.

 

I only have the one 65 and Ive only had her for a few months but even though I havent fixed her up yet, I find myself saying oh I could use one of those and those and that would be nice too. Hmmmm?

 

I have two '64 F100 lwb's (one is a parts truck) and a Samurai (I know...but it is much better on gas and off-road than the Ford).

We live on less than 1/4 acre, otherwise I would definitely have a '50's model F1 and a 1940-1965 Ford Dump Truck, along with something old and sporty, like a '69 Mach 1, a Galaxie, or Firebird.

Too little space...too little time...too little $$$$$!

 

As in my sig, I have to many, my wife says if I bring another one home I had better be able to live in it, unless it is a 41 Lincoln.

 

Just the one 66 f-100. I found out today that the guy wants $1500. for the 66 ranger I posted questions about a month or so back. So I might own two!!

 

1962 F100 Uni 262 (bad motor) will fix someday
1966 F100 SWB Custom Cab 352, 3sp Daily Driver
1966 F100 LWB Custom Cab, 428, C6 finishing up motor/trans/brake/steering swap
Looking at a 1965 SWB CC 352, 4sp currently...still testing the waters with the wife.

 

Ive got 2 trucks and my daily driver...trucks are 91 Ranger, tired, but still kicking, and of course my 65 CS.. as for how many Ive had...lol....more then enough.... a few I wish I still had...
had: 64 3/4 ton original Ca. truck styleside, c-o-m
65 1/2 ton long bed styleside...a wrecking yard rescue...it ended up at another yard...
66 1/2 ton styleside, base truck, got a couple of goodies from it b4 I sold
76 3/4 ton Supercab...a mistake I made in trading in...wish I had it still
65 3/4 ton Ranger, original Ca truck

I have 3 trucks, one 65 and 2 66 F100's They are not Restored or anything like that, But I really like driving them, and I like the fact that they are Mostly Original! They have never been painted, Except the front clip on my 66 custom cab which I replaced with another one from the Parts truck. Now the parts truck will become a trailer, I will admit, I would have 6 trucks if the Wife would allow it

 

It's nice to see I'm not the only one. I almost have enough now I think. I would love to get a Mercury pickup someday, though.

To NumberDummy, thats pretty cool that you still have the same truck after all those years.

 

I have four (three on the property and I will be picking up the crew cab this weekend): 64 Shortbed, 63 Uni Longbed, 63 Crew Cab and a 64 Shortbed Parts Truck.

My unique problem is that my wife keeps finding my slicks. However, I am officially out of space and out of money (for the time being). It's great having her so enthusiastic about my hobby and I certainly don't want to discourage her.

 

Man the fever is running rapidly. I only have two slicks right now ( I'm in therapy & on the wagon); my 65 Customcab semi restored; my newly found friend 64 Customcab, and two bumpsides 78 & 76 model.
Wife is supportive & hasn't left yet; but if I get more than that I'm toast.......
