Just finished a three year project. Not one that ordinarily I would have undertaken. This one was special to Me. It was My Grandpa's 1966 F100, that He purchase new in September of 1965. It has been in the family all it's life. It was terribly abused and neglected. by other members of the family. I remember riding next to my Grandpa in this when new. I was about six at the time. I feel good that I have saved it from the trash heap, for the time being. Sahara Beige with beige interior. 240 I 6 3speed on the column. std brakes and steering.

Its had every rusted nut and bolt restored, top to bottom. rebuilt the original 240 six. everything is Ford stock. I even sourced the original factory seat fabric that it came with.

I remember as a little kid how cool the dealer name was. Moore Ford. and they added one MOORE ford to the slogan.

The lettering on the tailgate are supposed to be bright red, I am not sure if I want to or not. They are so large it makes it look like a billboard. Thoughts on if I should or not?

Beautiful. Very nicely done. Straight 6 I guess? Any engine pics?

I'd leave it as is.

maybe get some film and cut it to fit the letters, put it on and see how it looks can take it or leave it then. If you liek it then you know if you should paint it. If thats the way it was originally Id lean toward doing it. but your truck now, do what you like
Amazing job on the truck. It is beautiful
