This 1965 Ford Econoline is a half-ton pickup that is finished in white over black fabric and vinyl upholstery and powered by a 240ci inline-six paired with a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission. Additional features include an aluminum radiator, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, wood-lined bed, and polished 17” American Racing wheels. The seller acquired the truck around a year ago, and work has since included resealing the engine, rebuilding the carburetor, resurfacing the flywheel, and replacing the brake master cylinder, water pump, thermostat, and fuel tank sending unit. This Econoline pickup is being offered with service records from current ownership and a clean Arizona title in the seller’s name.

The truck is said to have been repainted its current shade of white during previous ownership. Exterior features include a five-window cab, a chrome driver’s side-view mirror, body-color front bumper, chrome headlight trim, and a bed with a wood floor coated in black bedliner material.

A wood-rimmed steering wheel with a Ford center cap sits ahead of a black and white-painted dash housing a 100-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 27k miles, around 100 of which have been added during current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 240ci inline-six is housed between the seats and was resealed in 2021 by Automotive Diagnostic Specialties of Chandler, Arizona. Work also included rebuilding the carburetor and replacing the water pump, thermostat, crankshaft bolt, and fuel tank level sending unit. An aluminum radiator was installed in 2020, and the battery and fuel pump were also replaced at that time.
