Hi, I need to get my front brakes redone on my 65 F100 and just don't have time. I was wondering if anybody knew a good reputable man in the Omaha area who can work on them who won't force me to dip into my kid's college fund. Thanks.

I always wondered if you could take an old Slick big truck body - f-600 and up, and slap it on a newer frame. They don't seem to rust as much and would look cool. Anybody ever try that trick?

Just browsing some ebay motors and noticed stock type exhaust manifolds for FE trucks at about 29 bucks including shipping.
Does anyone know anything about these parts? Are they worth it?
(at less than 30 bucks, it might be worth a try, just carry a spare).

Item number: 370121945731

Thanks for all the interest. Chris in KC has spoken for the headliner. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year all.

Hi,

I live in Omaha and have a 65 F100 headliner. I don't have a large box for shipping, so it's for pick up only. It is in good shape, not beat up and has been stored inside for many years. If you are interested contact me through this website or call my cell 402-203-2477.

Heck, I didn't realize SlickStock was in KC. I've made the trip there twice in my 65 already. I'll plan on storing the hood till then and bring it down. I have some old fenders that need a new home too that will fit. Thanks. See you all then. Oh yeah, the gas station is in Correctionville, IA. You'd...

Not dinged up at all. There is the little crease across the raised portion in the center. Same place every slick hood I have gets. Comes from raising it in the center, I think.

Hi,
I'm cleaning my garage and have an extra hood for a slick. It is rust free and has the typical small crease across the middle. I was going to cut it and use it to fab some parts for another project --- but I hate to cut up good parts. 50 bucks takes it. I'm in Omaha.

I took one off a F800 too, thinking the distributor would work. It doesn't. I found a place in NM that would take the guts out of an electronic tach and put in the Borg Warner tach that fits the 65. It was about 200 bucks. I can find the number if you are interested.

I found the dust boot. I think if you have a NP 434 they interchange up to 79. I went to a ford dealer and asked for a boot for a 75. The one that came back had part number C5... They guy was surprised when I said that was a 1965 part number. Anyway now I gotta figure out how to get the spring clip ...

Hi, Had to remove my NP tranny to get at a busted throwout bearing. While I have it apart I'd like to replace the dust shield for the release lever that goes through the flywheel housing. Called NAPA, it's doubtful they have one. Theirs fits 80-83 Chevy. Anybody replaced one of these? Where did you ...
