It looks white to me, I'm wearing glasses, looking at the pics w/a 27" monitor.

The rarest option mentioned here was mentioned by "Number Dummy" back on post #6; "The rarest option...of all is the PICKUP CONVERTIBLE TOP, original MSRP $140.00, illustrated on page 28 of the 1966 accessory brochure (just above the optional dash mounted tach)."

BUT, I've never, ever seen one.

I only learned of their existence from FTE's own, "Number Dummy."

I came across this info today talking about the 1964 Camper Special, Custom Camper Special and Deluxe Camper Special packages available on the F250 series. It also mentions an F100 Heavy Duty Equipment Package for that series. The engine mentioned is the 292.

TA,
Where did your pages come from? Was it out of a FoMoCo publication or some recent 'reprint' by somebody?

It's a page from a 1964 Ford sales brochure. Not a reprint.

Check out page 17 post 252 of this tread, real evidence of the '64 C.S, not just more sales literature.

Cool info about Detroit Steel Tubing. Ford had the big FE engines then, but obviously thought there was no market for this type of power in a pre '65 pickup! Probably Lee Ioicoca in charge. I spy a hydravac power brake system under the hood.

This one is legit, the mecum '64 has the XL package option ( in '65 Ford called it a Ranger ). https://www.mecum.com/lots/SC0518-32...d-f100-pickup/ This is the first documented black bucket seat '64 XL to this point...

I have a 1966 F100 Ranger with a Jump Seat/console/arm rest combo obvious a dealer add on but looks factory. Appears to be a FoMoCo seat
One family owned who say been there since day one. Every other claim they made turned out to be true.
1965 T-Bird only Color
1965 T-Bird Hub caps
Its now my daily driver. (driving resto project)
