Orange City, Florida, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Ford
Drive Type: RWD
Model: E-Series Van
Mileage: 987,654
Trim: Custom
99.9% RUST FREE!!!
This classic van runs and drives. The fuel tank needs to be cleaned, but we have driven it all over on a gas can.
I have it at my Shop in Orange City Florida. I am closing the business down and have to eliminate some projects.
This is going with no reserve, so please bid responsibly.
Here are the specifics.
BODY:
The body is in 99.9% rust free condition. It is extremely solid and rust free. I brought it out from Phoenix Arizona and planned on doing it up right, but things happen.
PAINT:
Needs complete paint.
RUST:
Basically zero rust. This is super solid!!! Great project.
INTERIOR:
Everything is there, but to be a show van it needs to be redone.
ENGINE:
Solid running 300ci 6 cylinder engine. Runs great.
TRANSMISSION:
Automatic transmission. It drives well. If it sits for months, it will leak a little fluid out and not move to begin with. I do not see any obvious leaks, but that is what happens. If it is used regularly, it works fine.
TIRES:
Needs tires and custom rims in my opinion.
TITLE:
Clean and Clear Arizona title.
STORAGE:
If the car is paid for in full I will store the van for up to 3 months free of charge. I will not take any responsibility for anything that may happen to the car during this time.
SHIPPING:
I will assist in loading the car, but all costs associated with the shipping are the responsibility of the buyer. I do occasionally drive from Arizona to Florida and back. If we come to an agreement, I can deliver the car anywhere along the I-10 for a previously agreed upon price. Call first to make a deal.
QUESTIONS:
Feel free to ask any questions. You can call me at 602-625-1579 Thanks, Pete

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.
