I have recently purchased a 1964 F250 with the original flatbed that sais FORD on the flatbed which I believe is original? I bought it off an old farmer who was the original owner. He said the sides and the flatbed are all original and the whole truck is completly original! The numbers on the engine and truck appear to match also. When I went to pick it up I put in a fresh battery and gas and put all new fluids and the truck started and I was able to drive onto my trailer. Of course it needs 2 new fenders and alot of new gaskets. I noticed how all the rivets on the flatbed have never been welded or grinded down so i have reason to believe this truck may be valuble and I want to restore the truck. If anyone has any info and can put any sort of value on the beauty I would highly appreciate it! Please email me at bbfitch@hotmail.com thank you so very much I appreciate it.

 

What state are you located ?? Post the trucks warranty plate info and I or a few others on here can decode it all.

Ya gotta help us out an post some pictures so we can make some sort of judgement on it's condition. Of course being an owner of a 64 F-250 flat bed ( not an orgininal ) I'm kinda partitial to them

 

It is worth what ever you paid for it.

1961/66 F100/350's were available as a Styleside or Flareside Pickup, as a Cab & Chassis, and with a factory installed Platform (Flatbed) and Platform & Rack (Stakebed).

Also available as Open Drive-Away's: Chassis & Cowl, Cowl & Windshield. Many of these were used as ice cream trucks by Good Humor and etc. These trucks have no cab or doors.

FORD in block letters was embossed on the rear of Platforms, Platform & Racks after 1956. Previous years, the Ford script was embossed in this location.

To add to what Garbz said, these trucks are not rare, the demand is slight compared to FoMoCo Passenger Cars. So, they are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them.

Posts like this are really starting to tick me off. How in the heck can anyone assess a value to something
when there are shotty details and no photos to speak of.
