F100 Custom buckets seats original?

I just acquired a 1965 Ford F100 Ranger custom cab. It came with bucket seats. The seats look original, does anyone know if this was a factory option? I would like to restore the truck and keep it as original as posible. Thanks for any help you can provide!

Yes it is an option...Ranger pkg...I got a 65 3/4 ton C/S Ranger
seats are from Mustang, pkg includes, carpeting(2 pc),and gas tank cover as well as fender badging unless its a C/S truck

Drop me an email...Id love to talk more to ya about your Ranger....

And a glovebox emblem and deluxe hubcaps like on a Galaxie (I forgot about the gas tank cover....). Have photos of a nicely restored one should you want to look at an example. If interested email me and I will try and remember where I put them.

Nice catch for you (and for the guy with the CS/Ranger combo package which I did not know was ever produced... very cool).

I own a Ranger glove box emblem with a cast mark of C5GB represented to me as being correct for 65-66 and have photos of that and the caps. Email me if interested. Having said that I will defer to you since you appear to own one and I, well, do not (sob).

Thanks for the info on 65 options. Is there a way to decode the VIN number to see what model I have? The more I look at the fender badge, it seems like a replacement. I am not sure if I have a camper special or ranger model.


camperspecial65, I tried to send you an e-mail with a picture of my ruck. Did yoy get it?

thnx - timbercruiser

Timber...i didnt get it....no pix ...love pix of old Fords....BTW...as to fender badging....there is one exception....if you got a Ranger w/o C/S pkg, you got Ranger badging on fender. If it a ranger w/C/S pkg...you get C/S badging.....my 65 is the latter. Its tired but its a Ranger nonetheless....

Keep tryin on the pic....sometimes it takes a couple trys to get through.
