24" just off the back of the box? nothin IN THE FRONT OF THE BOX?, I guess id be looking for the specs for a 19665 or 66 shortbed, BOX AND FRAME,cant seem to find aNAYTHING ON THE NET! THANKS DUDE!
I miss my old '65 F-100. Like you I had converted to a '82 302 engine. Rebuilt the engine and had a RV cam and a stock ford 4bbl manifold and a Holley vac. secondary carb, ford electronic ignition. Got great gas mileage, 15-20mpg. Went to a 4spd New process trans, also. Then I got parts from a "73 3/4 ton and it became a 3/4 ton with power disc brakes and a dana 60 rear end. It was my work truck and I drove it over 30 yrs and 300k miles before it got totalled. I miss it. Nice to see yours.
im actually converting my 65 ford long bed into a short bed. i just finished making the cuts on the bed now i just got finish welding it back together and put her back on the frame
if u dont mind me assking,, im lookin for the spaecs to CUT DOWN my long box too! did u cuty some out of the front and back? what were the cutdown dimensions? thanks! gary
@bigsexy3037 ya man i took 2 feet off the back, but i looked in an lmc truck catolog and found out i should have taken less off but it turned out to be ok i just have a little extra space between the bed and the cab. if i were u id check out an LMC truck catalog it'll give u all the specs. its really useful.
no thats no the stock motor that is a 302 out of a 78 ford pickup ....um the floor pans are decent there is a hole in the drives side near the door avout the size of a quarter
I grew up in a 65 short box, painted black, had about 200,000 miles and was change out to a 390. Eat them vets for breakfeast, should have seen the look on there face. It was my dads truck, wish I had one like it now. Cool truck. Does yours have the electronic overdrive?
niether man it is a 302 and the truck drives like a charm for a truck that doesn't have power steering or power brakes lol (the bigger tires make it hard to turn when sitting still thou.......
my dad has one with a in line six
