Welcome to FTE

F260 is the MODEL code stamped on the Warranty Plate (located on the left door face below the latch).

F260: F250 4WD, 6,800 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

With a MODEL code of F260, the first 3 digits of the VIN will be F26 = F250 4WD

Sorry about the picture but I did upload it into my garage if you have time to take a peak and let me know what I have. I am really interested in finding out if its worth holding onto or getting rid of?

You need to post more pics in your garage. One distant right side view isn't enough. Close-ups of front/back/left/right exterior, engine and interior pics needed.

Here is a photo of one of the first Ford built in house crew-cabs, before this, they were farmed out to specialty builders.

Are you trying to sell your '65? I thought I saw it on craigslist.

If I remember correctly, when dad bought our '64 F100 CrewCab in '65, a new '65 F250 CrewCab was available for $2750. He found that out -after- he paid $2800 for the '64. I may be off by $100 or so, but it's close. Thanks for the pic from the magazine.

Pretty cool CC. I would definetly hang onto it! Not very many CC around this body style. A good friend of mine has a 63 on a big truck chassis. It will someday be an a 3/4 ton Cummins Dodge frame.

Has anyone seen something like this? Driver's side does not have a rear door.

You have a coach built.

The rear door has an outer type hinge. It is not a crown Mfg unit as the B pillar on those was much thinner and the door edges touch. I would say it was a custom, shop jobbed by the end user.
