The Ford F-Series is a series of trucks marketed and manufactured by Ford. In production since 1948, the F-Series is a range of light trucks marketed as full-size pickup trucks, slotted above the compact Ford Ranger in the Ford truck model range. Since 1999, the F-Series also includes the heavier-duty Super Duty series, which includes pickup trucks, chassis cab trucks, and medium-duty trucks. As of current production, the Ford F-Series includes the F-150 pickup, F-250 through F-450 Super Duty pickups, F-450/550 Super Duty chassis cabs, and F-650/750 Super Duty Class 6-8 trucks. The most popular version of the F-Series is the F-150, now in its fourteenth generation.
The best-selling pickup truck in the United States since 1977 (the highest-selling vehicle overall since 1981);[1][2] the F-Series is also the best-selling vehicle in Canada.[3] As of the 2018 model year, the F-Series generated $41 billion in annual revenue for Ford.[4] At various times, Ford has marketed the F-Series across all three of its divisions in North America. From 1948 to 1968, Mercury marketed the F-Series as the M-Series (in Canada); during the 2000s, Lincoln sold the F-150 as the Blackwood and the later Mark LT. The F-series platform has underpinned several sport utility vehicles, including the Ford Bronco, Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator.
As of current production, the Ford F-Series is manufactured by Ford in four facilities in the United States.
The fourth generation of the Ford F-Series is a line of pickup trucks and commercial trucks that were produced by Ford from October 1960 to August 1966. Sleeker and wider than its predecessor, the new F-Series introduced several firsts to the truck line. In Canada, the F-Series continued to be distributed by Mercury dealers as the M-Series.
Along with the traditional separate Flareside beds, Ford introduced unibody trucks. These were originally named as the "integrated pickup" and consisted of the cab and the bed into one continuous piece, with no gap between them.[3] The design required fewer stampings, such as the back of the cab served as the leading edge of the bed, less complicated assembly, such as the single-wall bed sides were spot-welded directly to the door sills, and the body had a less complicated path through the assembly plant's paint shop.[3] This achieved cost savings in the manufacture of the truck, but the one-piece cab and bed body was still mounted to a traditional ladder frame chassis.[3] Only two-wheel-drive F-100 and F-250 models used this one-piece construction--four-wheel-drive models and all F-350s, as well as all models with Flareside beds, continued to use separate cabs and beds. Styleside beds were carried over from the 1957-60 models.
1962-1964
Due to poor market reception, and rumors that overloading caused the doors to jam shut, the unibody trucks were dropped midway through the 1963 model year. The 1963-64 models have the turn signals in the grill. 1964 models received an all-new Styleside bed with more modern styling.
In October 1964, the 1965 F-Series introduced an all-new frame, which would be used on the F-Series through 1979. The body itself remained largely unchanged, but on 1965 and 1966 models the turn signals are above the headlights. Replacing the rudimentary straight-axle in the front was all-new independent "Twin I-Beam" suspension with coil springs on two-wheel-drive trucks.[4] The 1965 and 1966 F-Series trucks are distinguished with a "TWIN I-BEAM" emblem on the front fender. A 4-door crew cab was also introduced on F-250 and F-350 models.
The 240 cu in (3.9 L) and 300 cu in (4.9 L) straight six was introduced. With the introduction of the 208 hp (155 kW; 211 PS) 352 cu in (5.8 L) FE V8, output surpassed 200 hp in the F-Series for the first time.
F-100 (F10, F14): 1/2 ton (4,000-5,000 GVWR max)
F-100 (F11, F18, F19)(4×4): 1/2 ton (4,000-5,600 GVWR max)
F-250 (F25): 3/4 ton (7,400 GVWR max)
F-250 (F26)(4×4): 3/4 ton (4,900 GVWR max)
F-350 (F35): 1 ton (9,800 GVWR max)
A Camper Special was available featuring heavier-duty components to accommodate the slide in campers that were becoming increasingly popular during this time.
For 1965, the Ranger name first appeared as a styling package for the F-Series pickup trucks. The interior featured bucket seats and a curtain over the gas tank which was behind the seats in the cab - Auta a dopravní prostředky
I'm always amazed at how beautiful these Moebius kits are. Great detail and I love the full color instruction sheets. Nice to see you kept this one clean instead of well worn.
The chrome bumpers on these old trucks always makes me chuckle. Probably fewer than 1 in 100 of these trucks were sold with chrome bumpers. These were working vehicles. Chrome was a premium. I don't think I ever saw a pickup with chrome bumpers until the 80s.
About the only thing I dislike about these kits is the moulded on side trims which mean you're pretty stuck with the chrome options.
My eldest daughter loves this video, because of the blue and white paint scheme you gave it. I build the Moebius ‘71 Ranger XLT for her, in the same two tone, the same way you did yours. I converted it into a ‘67 by using the ‘67 Moebius kit and using the AMT ‘78 Ford Firestone truck, I converted it into a F-250 Highboy.
I had a happy mistake with this truck. I wanted a blue and white interior and wasn’t sure how I was going to do the blue. When I did the blue, I got enough overspray into the cab to turn it blue, to match the rest of the blue, on my truck.
Cool!
Black and red would look awesome
Fantastic build brother
Nice build!
If they ever do the '67 Chevy pickup, I'll be in piggy heaven!
Oh yeah - '67 through '72 Chevy & GMC pickups - long-bed, short bed, step-side, smooth side, 4x4, 2WD, bone stock, street machine, 6-banger, "Mouse" or "Rat" V8s, panel delivery,Suburban.... Lots of possibilities to kit ala Mobius Fords or RM Chevys = multi-versions from relatively few major toolings. Yes, please!
Definitely maybe even the blazer
Absolutely love the frame and driveline on all of the moebius kits because of realism and detail
I am going to have to try a Moebius Kit. This is a beautiful finished piece of work!
You should!
I'd love to get this model one day. I can't wait,
So great to have so many "real ride" kits - more like what was likely to be driven by someone we knew - sometimes even ourselves! Chris, your builds capture the "real feel" of vehicles which are being driven, instead of "museum pieces," "dealer showroom displays," or "trailer queens!"
Very nice color scheme used on the truck. Really stands out.
Nice job! As always, it looks good. You have a very steady hand in highlighting all that raised trim with a sharpie.
...one of your nicest builds!
Thanks!
Stunning Chris
Great build
What a sharp looking truck - love those colors you picked.
Thanks 👍
Nice.
I really like your videos. I wish they would come out with a 1952 ford f1 model.
Revell used to make one. I remember building it when I was 13
Interesting suggestion. I wonder if RMC sales of 1950 F-1 pickup were so poor that some '48 -'52 versions "died on the vine?" Just consider the success the venerable '53 from AMT has had - despite having some quirky "features, like door panel molding inside of cab shell....
@randsterama Day and night actually !
Enpricse with your building the right combo colors great detailing to make it realistic

Twin I-Beam. Great build as always, Chris.
Sharp truck..especially with the keystone mag wheels..great build👍👍👍😊😊😊
Oh Yea, My dad’s was red and white with a 352 4bbl and a three speed on the column. I was 5 when he bought it. Kept it till 1973 when he got the F-100 Ranger XLT. I loved those trucks.
Nice old truck kit
Another good looking build. Those Moebius models are great.
Great build as usual Chris keep up the great work
Thanks, will do!
A great build on a wonderful kit. Those Moebius kits are awesome.
Very Nice Build and a great kit as well, perfect colour combination.
i Love these old car kits😀
Thanks for coming along for the fun!
:)
Another great build!!
I love it when they mold the grills and wheels open.looks more realistic
Very nice kit build
Love the colors that dull coat and black wash makes wheels look so realistic thanks again for the great video !!!!!
my personal fav Ford truck.....66 means she was built at the factory in 1965 , my birth year....owned a 66 Mustang , for 27 years....302 w quick gearing , and a mild cam...She was fast & too much fun....Rock onnn Chris , nice build

Chris; have watched your builds since day one. Learned lots, and lots of products from you, but I'll faint dead if you ever scraped or sanded off seams and flash from parts. great work anyway, I'll be begging for more.
Beautiful job as always brother. You may have to pay a little more for moebius kits but the cost is 100% worth it when you consider all the extra options and just how perfect they go together and look amazing when done. Thank you for sharing. Everyone keep yourself and love ones safe and healthy and remember to smile.
Beautiful truck
I love it!
Maaan doing everything in my power now to keep from pulling out the credit card and ordering this kit. I've never a Mobius kit- everything they say about them is true. Why can't every kit go together so easily and line up so nicely? LOL other Model companies take note- this is what we want more of-clear concise instructions, color callouts, crisp rich details, 300 extra optional parts, and zero fit issues... Thx for the build up Chis! :)
Great looking truck model. AAA+++
Thanks 👍
I'll be finishing up my second Moebius pickup today and can't wait to get started on the third!
All sky blue would be beautiful as well as what I have in mind for a project truck idea for the 65-66 ford trucks id do red on top dark and black on the bottom and carry the theme into the truck door panels and the dash would be sweet as well great model examples by moebius again though and great build sir
Fantastic....nice paint ! Congratulations ! Regards ! Henrique from Brazil 😎👍
BIG SHOUT OUT AGAIN TO THE PERSON WHO GAVE US THE TIRE SANDING WITH DRILL TECHNIQUE. THANK YOU
I've doing that for years using a drill press, use what ya have !
@@bruceparadis1725 can't believe I've been doing it by hand for years and never even thought about finding an easier way. HAHAHA
I was using a chuck in my drill l cobbled together with washers & nuts, but now l use the socket method thanks to Chris, l couldn't believe l didn't think of that.
@@garyslentzii2796 it's amazing at some of the lengths we will go to build our models and detail them to our own satisfaction. I'm just little annoyed with myself that for all these years I have been doing it by hand and not 1 time did I stop and think how I could save myself some of that work. Hope you and the love ones are staying safe and healthy.
@@teddyjones8027 Thanks, stay well my friend, love picking up new tips, keeps you sharp.
Yes, yes and yes Chris! Love this build. Mobius sure knows how to out a truck. My builds have gotten much quicker and been having more fun building for myself. Still need to see you build up an A10 warthog. Keep so coming buddy!
I owned an actual 66 ford.....what a money pit....loved it. Suicide brake cylinder no power steering...was a blast to drive. Had some of the best body lines on a truck ever.
Gotta love those Mobius Kits! The '67 I'm working on is amazing, I hope I can do it justice, my painting skills are somewhat rusty ( no pun intended). Really sweet build Chris!
Super fantastic job. Really love the colors. Keep it up.
Great job on this pick up, looks excellent and sits up nice too. You are right about how a guy could really go crazy building it in so many custom ways if you had a good spare parts bin. Thanks for the video, look forward to the next one, take good care and be well.
Aw, man! Super cool model. Super cool build. Awesome job on it. Great music as well, lol. Really fantastic.
Very very nice. A great haul!!
Moebius makes a nice truck. We need a 60's Dodge, please.
It would be awesome if Moebius tooled the F100 unibody that saw production between 1961 and 63.
Good job with this
I can't believe what a steady and accurate hand you have wielding that Sharpie...my pens always seem to sputter and leave gaps...my hand can't stay on those trim lines for s**t.
Beautiful truck. Keep them coming.
Stunning build Chris, I love the color combination!
Great job Chris love the Moblis kits there great thank you once again
What an amazing kit. So much detail. Hope to find it in Australia. Should be available. Well done.
Man! That came out nice!
THANK YOU LIKE YOUR VEDEOS
I got to get this kit. This one has a lot of sentimental value to my mother when she was a kid
My father-in-law had this exact truck. Well, there was one difference. It wasn’t four-wheel-drive. I’ve had a hard time finding the 1966 Ford pick up like this that is not four-wheel-drive. I can find the 1965 but of course the grills are different.
I guess I will buy the 1966 Ford four-wheel-drive truck and just build it as a 2 Wheel Dr.
Outstanding as always Chris love the colour scheme.
Many thanks!
Beautiful build, I just ordered one.
Great job 👌 love the color 👌
Fantastic Chris! This kit came together real nice.
wow, that's a really nice kit, may be getting this one thanx!
Nice build,love the color choice.Awesome😎
Very very nice ! Beautiful colours
Nice job looks great
I really like the 2 tone paint looks awesome one of your best builds.Watching your channel got me to finish an old build and back into hobby.I am currently working on 67 GTX.Thank You for the tips on paint and detail.
I bought the first release of that 67 GTX in 1995 - one of the nicest kits I ever built!
Great vid..................You can always do so much with a truck kit !! 👍 👍 👍
Excellent awesome superb outstanding incredible jaw dropping eye popping amazing beautiful job you did with that truck just great keep up your great work fantastic.
Love the paint job. Love the color combo.
Thanks a bunch!
The Ford suspension is called TWIN I BEAM awesome job once again
Looks great man! My dad gave me his 64 F250 back in 1993 when I was in high school. It had a 223 straight six and a three on the tree.
I had a '66 F100 Custom Cab 2WD back a few decades ago. I might just have to get one.
That blue's a great color. Reminds me of the Skyline blue GM used on the square bodies. Nice job. Looks like it just rolled off the showroom floor.
Yeah!
Never bought a Mobius kit yet, almost bought the Chrysler 300 kit but it is expensive here in the UK. Great build, the detail and moulding on this Mobius kit looks great.
Sharpie for the windows?! Why didn’t I think of that? Genius!
Looks awesome Chris. I just built the mobius 71 ranger almost like a snap kit it goes together so well. Thanks for sharing
Awesome build. I had a red 65 2 tone white over red. Need to get mine one. 👍👍
Awesome bud! 👍👍🤘✌🏻
great job looks awesome , love the 2 tone
I like to see as a tow truck that would look great
Looks great! Keen to do one of these, I think I'll probably add Fireball Modelworks 8' flareside bed to it though, along with some resin skinny lug treads for the stock wheels.
Hope they do a '61-66 'Wrongbed' kit eventually, I mean it wouldn't be a huge retool.
Another great build, of a very iconic truck, well done, I hope you are keeeping safe and well.
Chris another fantastic kit review
And a great build
Love your channel
Please keep them coming
I love the Moebius kits! So many extras included. My only issue is be careful not to make your paint too thick. I find it does make things a bit more difficult for assembly. Other than that, I will continue to buy them. I hope they come out with other kits.
Awesome truck, I've got the 71 ranger still work but they are awesome kits super detail. Love the tips.
Great build Chris , built this kit a few years you can really go to town on the interior
I have to admit my favorite part of your videos is watching you paint the transmission with Testors Silver. I can smell that enamel now.....lol
Right on!
Mobius needs to come out with sone C10's.... Great build
Problem is Hulk the C10's fall apart
I give this guy a like/thumbs up when the video starts.
Awesome truck! Got that sixties Ford stance that says, coming thru boys!
Sweet
Great looking build Chris, that color combo makes the whole truck pop.
I have the 71' long wheel base that I'll be doing in a color combo close to that. Mine will have a confederate flag on the roof, I'm doing it like the 1:1 I had back in the mid 80's.
Keep the builds coming, always enjoy seeing what other people are building.
Awesome 😎. That color looks like a Florida blue , awesome work as always.
SOOO KOOOOOLLLL. WOW
Mike Espo .
Me gusta la camioneta; me va a gustar cómo quedó el resultado; saludos.
One sweet build love the stories that go along with the build creat your own stories makes modeling so fun examples may have done a engine swap maby dented a fender replaced with junk yard parts good work as usual waiting on the next one
Some small individual items on their own tree: I often glue trees together: easier to paint lots of small parts the same color at the same time.
