Nice looking truck, and for Palm Springs maybe they can spend that kind of cash.

1966 grille and fender emblems (both reproduced, like 1965 parts are not). Butchured dash to install aftermarket radio, C6 not available until 1968. Custom Cab script missing from left door.

Armrests should be red, not black. Door trim panels were not tu-toned. Door access panel has become a home for aftermarket speakers.

Body side mouldings were an option, did not come with any package. But, it needs the mouldings to break up the "sea of red paint."

Dash pad could be deleted. Wheels are correct, but cannot make out what the hubcaps are.

Factory installed gas cap was painted body color, but if lost, all that was available from Ford was a chrome cap. Locking gas cap was an option, as were lap seat belts.

With factory installed single exhaust (dual exhaust never offered), the tailpipe (except Camper Specials) ended just past the rear end.

IMO, truck is vastly overpriced, is worth maybe 6-8 grand...tops. Seller should have consigned it to recent Barret-Jackson circus (auction), where it might have fetched 22 grand from a clueless buyer.

That's a nice truck. And damn purrrdy I think. But way over priced. for about 7K I would drive the wheels off her. Or until the engine or something else went south. Than fix it and buy more wheels to drive them off.

It could be that the seller doesn't want the truck gone but somebody else does. So he is just "trying" to sell his truck...if you know what I mean.

.....not to mention the not-so-OEM 'blue dot' tail light lenses.

....and what about those seat belts?

If I put a picture of, or a link to, a truck for sale, there's a reason. Most of the time it's because the seller is mis-representing the vehicle. Or he's/she's hiding something, such as a wood floor over a rusted floor. Looks good from the top, but you see the original rusted floor from underneath. In other words trying to educate all potential buyers before they commit.
As for what someone is selling they're truck for, I hope he/she gets it. Makes mine and yours worth more. Makes all the parts I have worth more. If I put my truck up for sale for $30,000.00 some of you would think that's crazy. While others who know my truck would be glad I'm getting my money back and be happy for me. Those of you who think I'm crazy, would post it right here or elsewhere giving me that much more exposure increasing the chances of me getting real money for my truck. Guess what guys/gals, there are people with deep pockets who see something they want, and buy it regardless of cost. So the real question is "Who's crazier, the seller or the buyer?"

Moulding on dash also used w/tu-tone paint. Since we don't know original configuration, it could have had a padded dash or dash was tu-toned.

Blue dots are illegal in CA, but the polizei seem to ignore or don't notice them.

Yeah, I agree needs the side moulding to break up the red. The hub caps look like they came off a Rambler or something. I think most police officers don't know the blue dots are illegal except for maybe chippies.
