1967 F250 - 352 cu in, AT, 2wd long bed

1967 Ford F-250 Description

Please read the condition description and ask questions - I want the prospective new owner to know exactly what they are purchasing.

I would consider this a rolling chassis, with a running motor and a potentially serviceable transmission.

Mileage is unknown, says 20,000 but that is obviously incorrect and I don't know if the odometer functions.

Running not driving 1967 Ford F250, standard cab, automatic transmission, two wheel drive truck. Truck has sat since I first saw it in 2011. I purchased it andspent most of a weekend returning it to running and moveable (under it's own power) condition. That required sorting out wiring as the original ignition was missing, cleaning out carburetor, new plugs, wires, distributor, coil, solenoid. Bypassed the original rear tank with an auxiliary plastic tank with fresh fuel and voila she fired right over with very little cranking. The gas tank behind the bench seat is missing. After about 5 minutes of sputtering she held idle and throttles up. As I mentioned in the condition description, the automatic transmission complete function is presently unknown, it does move the vehicle in forward and reverse but stopping it is another story as it feels like only one of the front drums is engaging at all and therefore I am unwilling to go for a higher speed "joy" ride.

The truck is very straight and all the body panels are free of dents and not rusted through, the hood opens/closes well and is very solid. Drivers side door opens closes well and is in nice shape, not rusted through. Presently the passenger side door does not open, as I mentioned the original keys as well as the original ignition switch is missing. I intend to pull the door panel and update the status before the end of the auction, presently its locked. Glass in both doors rolls up and down and is in good shape as are the wing vent glass pieces/frames.

The floor of the bed is rusted through, however, you can only see that from beneath the truck, Sometime in the past the previous owner installed metal full bed length galvanized panels over the floor bed and has a thick rubber mat over that. It is actually quite solid and secure and extremely functional.

The cab feels solid on its mounts but those have some rust and back "wall" of the cab has some rust through where it meets the floor. The passenger side cab corner is solid, the drivers side has some holes visible from the outside (pictured).

As mentioned the truck hasa non original keyed ignition switch installed which starts, runs and shuts off the engine. There are loose wires beneath the dash and I have not sorted those out. Having said that the overall electrical system is unknown, although all the headlamps, tail lamps are in place. It will take some time chasing the wiring, but I am guessing anyone with some patience and a multimeter will be well on their way.

I have all the original taillight lenses and front yellow marker lenses and they will be included in the sale. Also included in the sale are original 1967 correct F100 badges/reflectors (pictured). Previous owner bought the right year ('67 was a one off) but the wrong model, still are worth something/original and look cool.

Tires hold air but are very weather checked, no spare.

Please ask questions, and I will do my best to answer them as accurately as possible.

This is a no reserve auction, a deposit of $500 is due within 24 hours of auction close via paypal. The balance of payment can be made via paypal prior to vehicle pickup/shipping or cash/cashiers check/money order at time of pickup. I am willing to hold the truck for up to ten days, if you intend to be the winning bidder and need more time than that please contact me prior to auction close to discuss.

Thank you for looking.

UPDATE 2/1/2017

So I've spent some more time playing with the F100. It was 28 degrees this morning and she fired after less than 3 seconds of cranking, sputtered a little but after 30 seconds held idle and did so for the next 15 minutes. Turned it on and off multiple times and it fires nearly instantaneously every time.

While warming up I advanced the throttle a few times and watched the volts climb to over 14 at one point and settled back to 12.4/5 so I know the alternator is charging.

Tail lights work, brake lights not yet.

I was continually checking the upper radiator hose temp and after about 10 minutes or so of 650rpm or so idle the thermostat clearly opened. Both heater core supply and return line were hot so there's good coolant movement.

I did see some coolant leaking at the upper radiator hose clamp and the cap, radiator core is not leaking anywhere that I observed.

At this point I got brave and took a spin around the block. She engaged in first and seemed to shift into secondwithout issue, reverse works fine too. The speedometer does work, I accelerated up to 50mph and hit the brakes, clearly the left front drum is engaging. So you do have some brake function and with some brake work and electrical sorting (brake lights and directional) this could likely soon be a functioning truck. Don't get me wrong there's plenty to work on but it did go around the block a few times without issue and I backed up the hill of my driveway back to where you see it pictured. I still have my auxillary jury rigged plastic tank rigged under the hood. The gas cap on the tank is locked and I don't have the key. The tank will likely have to be drained at a minimum if not dropped and properly cleaned. There is some old fuel in it so presently it isn't leaking.

The two barrel holley was well out of adjustment, after opening each side 1.5 turns the motor smoothed out considerably and has pretty good throttle response. I have not messed with the timing in any way.

Update 2/2/2017 - Mistakenly referred to the truck as an F100 in the last update, it is an F250. Thanks for the question about that.

Solved the locked gas cap on the rear tankand flushed the old fuel by pressurizing the tank. The good news, there was no sediment that came out just some bourbon colored old fuel that got progressively lighter in color until it was empty.

Pumped about 15 gallons out and added3 gallons of fresh fuel, drove the truck around to sloshthe fresh fuelaround and flushed that out as well. Put in 10 gallons of clean fuel and a new fuel filter and the

truck now has a functioning rear tank that is in good working order.
