@Mark Wein you should enjoy this one!!
The featured 1965 F-100 Flareside is equipped with the Custom Cab option group. It also has the 8-foot pickup bed (versus the 6-1/2-foot type), 352-cid V-8 and the four-speed transmission. This combination of features was not especially common when the truck was new, and the passage of time, has made this particular truck a rare find today.
The owner of the featured F-100 is Ronald Shore of Longview, Texas. He obtained it in the mid 1990s in Dallas. Even though it was in good condition with little rust, Ron decided to perform a full body-off restoration. Surprisingly, the bed was in like-new condition, so there was virtually nothing needed to be done to freshen it.
Additionally, the upholstery remained in like-new condition. Ron did much of the work himself, but hired a local shop to handle the body and paint work. The engine and transmission were fully rebuilt and are original to the truck.
