Will 66 doors work on a 64 cab? How different are the 64-66 cabs in terms of swapping parts?

Keith

Thanks a lot for the effort.

I have been stripping down the truck some more. I got the bench seat off the tracks because the track bolts were so rusted in. When I got the seat off I looked at the trackes and they were held together by a thin thread of metal. No use trying to fix them. Does anybody sell seat tracks? I want to ke...

Sorry for the late response, I was out of town again. I was in Moab Utah when I found the junkyard. I'm still working on taking off all the old sheetmetal. The cab looks pretty bad. Both mounts are gone, both foot wells are see through and the lower pillars are gone. I see there are patch panels ava...

Man did I luck out last week. I was out in Utah for business when I spotted a yard with (2) 1966 slicks in it. I pulled in and asked the guy if he wanted to sell any parts off it. He said I could get what I wanted off them for a price. Well, I got a hood, two outer fenders, core support, two inner f...

It's been a while since I posted, but I have finally started deconstructing the truck after assessing all the parts I'll need. The bad parts are: front fenders (outer and inner), front cab mounts, rad support and hood. The bed had a tool box built into the pass side but it is completely rotted out. ...

Thanks FBp

The symptoms you describe sure sound like what my father-in-law told me the engine was doing before he parked it. I will know more when I pull the engine in about a month (my curent plan)

Thanks Iceman. I was wondering where else the vin was stamped!!!

I 've got a straight six in my 66. I am not too familiar with Ford engines and was wondering what the displacement might be. The vin tag is missing from the door but I have a good title. My father-in-law said the bottom of the engine was making a loud banging when he parked it 20 years ago. Are ther...

Well, it took 13 hrs hours but the 66 is now home from Charlevoix. We had to jack up the front one side at a time and put the new tires on. The right side was buried a good 8 inches and frozen in the ground. High winds and a snow squal did not help. We put a stap on it and began to pull. It did not ...

I am driving to Northern Michigan tomorrow to drag the 66 my father in law gave me out of the woods. I am bringing 4 good used tires and wheels since the ones on the truck are trashed. I plan to replace the tires and wheels and roll it onto a trailer. I had my Father-in-law spray the lugs with rust ...

Thanks for the welcome. I have uploaded some pix in the album. Let me know if you can view them. MADMAXETC asked if I was going to do a resto or a custom. I don't know yet but I am leaning toward mild custom. To Stepside64: I live in Milford but did live in Sterling Heights about the time the 1966 w...

Just joined yesterday due to my father-in -law giving me A 1966 camper special. The hitch? it has been sitting for 20 years outside in Northern Michigan. My son and I spent 4 hrs cutting trees and brush around it. It will need a complete resto but I have been looking for a project and always liked t...
