Love at first site. . .
First I want to thank those of you that answered my question about looking at 66 F100 on Saturday. The drive down I-5 on Saturday was pretty messy with record rains and high winds. But when I got to Vancouver Washington, I found more than I was expecting. I'll let the pictures do their own talking. . .
I took her for a spin around the area got back and felt no real reason for talking him down from the $900 he was asking. I jumped on the train Sunday morning and drove it back. I was suprised that even since it only has a 240 I6, I was able to keep up with traffic with out a problem. I can't wait to start working on it.
Proud New 66 F100 owner,
Ron McDonald
PS. I now have a '88 Ford Ranger SC for sale

$900?
If that truck were in the northeast, the truck sitting in a field with no drivetrain in it would be worth more than that in the condition of yours. Excellent buy!

Thanks!
I have been apart of a few groups, the Ford owners already seem among the one of the best groups around. I have already met Don "camperspecial65" and hope to meet others as I go along. I have posted more pictures in my gallery for your entertainment

My God! That seller must have really been down and out, desperate, or maybe even insane to ASK $900. Everyone take a look at Ron's gallery and see what I mean. That truck has power steering, dual master cylinder conversion, padded dash, original radio. I also noticed what looks like a nice, clean, original floormat. Throw on a rust free bed and chrome bumpers and Ron's looking at getting arrested for robbery.
Ron my friend you are the man!
