1960 Ford F100 Short Bed 292 Y Block V8, Automatic Transmission.
This truck is in very nice condition condsidering its age. This is one of those trucks that has never been messed with and never been restored, but survived. The 292 Y Block engine runs, but will need a tune up, the transmission works, but slips, will need to be rebuil or maybe the bands just need to be adjusted. This truck was a daily driver 1 year ago according to the previous owner. One small ding in the front right fender as seen and the tailgate could some work, but still works. Has sheetmetal cancer rust at both lower corners in the cab as seen and a little cancer rust in the passanger door (the pictures of the rust are extreme close ups and not that bad). The body is very straight The floors are solid and the bed looks good. This is a truck that can be driven as is with the mechanical issues repaired as stated above or can be worth over 25K if restored. Truck has surface rust as seen in the pictures. At Least one tire does not hold air. Both door glass has cracks, but the windshield and rear glass look nice. Basically this is a rare shortbed that is an outstanding candidate for restoration and is a complete truck. Has a 2 barrel holley carb. The battery will be removed, i use it for my other car and it will need a wire from the coil to the distributer, im using the one from the same car. The original color was yellow, but now its white and flaking off, so a lot of the yellow is showing.Brakes are firm. This is an old truck that needs a lot of work to look great, so if you need a picture of a certain spot, let me know and i will provide it, if you want to call me to discuss it, please do. My Name is Tom and my number is 925-321-7643. This truck is sold AS IS as all of these old truck are. For you RAT ROD Guys, they dont get better than this one. Have clear title (Non-Op) Registered in California through 8/31/2013. This is NOT a salvage title truck. Wont last long at this price. Treat this truck as a non-runner for now, again the engine does turn over, but i just dont want people to think there gonna hop in this truck and drive it.
This is truely just a great solid truck. 5K would make this truck worth 15K. The numbers definately pencil out on this one. I only buy and sell trucks that make sense for me and whoever buys them from me.

Revisiting the 2008-09 auto bailout that saved GM and Chrysler
Fri, Sep 2 2016The Federal Reserve stayed open late on December 31, 2008. There's almost no way you could remember that because barely anyone knew at the time. But General Motors had to pay its bills, and the Fed wired money so GM could still buy things in January. Without those funds, the nation's largest automaker wouldn't have seen much of 2009. It's one of many heart-stopping moments that illustrate just how close Detroit's Big Three came to extinction nearly a decade ago. They're chronicled in a new movie, Live Another Day, premiering in theaters September 16. Filmmakers Bill Burke and Didier Pietri interviewed nearly all of the key executives, federal officials, and union chiefs to recreate the auto industry's most perilous period. The movie begins in the aftermath of Lehman Brothers' demise amid the global financial meltdown. Things looked bleak for American carmakers, and their CEOs were laughed off Capitol Hill when they sought a Wall Street-style bailout. "It was a feeling that it was the end of the world," Pietri told Autoblog in an interview where he and Burke previewed the film. Saved by last-minute loans authorized by the Bush Administration after Congress refused to act, Detroit staggered into 2009 with a faint pulse. Live Another Day illustrates the downward spiral that played out that winter as President Obama and his task force – with little prior knowledge of the auto industry – wrestled over the fate of hundreds of thousands of jobs. GM's longtime CEO Rick Wagoner was fired in March. Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne suddenly appeared as a savior for Chrysler, with his own motives. Obama rejected restructuring plans from the automakers. Chrysler declared bankruptcy on April 30. GM followed June 1. The sequence was very public, but Pietri and Burke showcase lesser-known events that shaped the outcome. They also seek to dispel the notion that the government rescued GM and Chrysler from incompetent leaders. "We never subscribed to the theories that the management structures of the companies were a bunch of idiots who didn't know what is going on," Pietri said. At one point, Chrysler executives were negotiating with Marchionne and Fiat. Unbeknownst to them, the government was having its own talks with the Italian automaker. The filmmakers also cast light on the bankruptcy process, which was shredded to shepherd two of America's industrial icons through reorganizations.
Ford EcoBoost V6 hits the dyno before hitting the track
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Ford Racing just unveiled the Riley Daytona Prototype that will make its racing in the United SportsCar Racing Championship Rolex 24 at Daytona in January, and now it has released a video showing development of twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 that powers the car. Using the same block and heads that can be found on a production Ford Taurus SHO, this new racecar benefits from the collaboration between Ford Racing and Ford powertrain engineers.
While we still don't know what kind of power this engine is putting out, it has definitely gotten a workout at Ford's 17G dyno. This area deep within Ford allows the automaker's racing program to work hand-in-hand with production engine programs, which can be a benefit to racing operations and production cars alike. Scroll down to hear a few people from Ford talk about the crosspollination between its racing and engine teams and watch the EcoBoost get red hot on the dyno.
2015 Ford Focus Sedan is fresh-faced and ready to defend its Most Popular crown
Wed, 09 Apr 2014Ford has made an art of deeper-than-normal midlife updates since the 2010 Fusion, a strategy that has allowed it to keep models looking fresher in showrooms for longer without needing full redesigns. Instead of slight touchups to light fixtures, new paint colors and perhaps new wheel patterns, Ford has been digging deeper, with significant sheetmetal changes and very different front-end looks, along with an increased emphasis on new in-car technologies to keep models vibrant. Other automakers are following this trend, and Ford itself is continuing on the path with this new 2015 Focus Sedan.
There's a handsome new SE Sport Package that includes a firmer touring suspension, modest body kit and 17-inch wheels.
We first saw this sleek Aston Martin-like nose fitted to a Focus at the Geneva Motor Show last month, but Ford only showed the new look on the five-door hatchback - this is the first appearance of the sedan, which will bow at next week's New York Auto Show. The front end treatment is the same, with a new hood, new headlamps incorporating LED accents, a different grille shape and a completely revised lower fascia that does away with the 2014 model's controversial triangle-shaped corners and gaping intakes. The rear gets a new two-piece, laser-brazed trunk lid with new taillamps, but the overall look is quite similar to last year's car. In any case, the refreshed look brings the Focus sedan more in line with the design of Ford's other recently reworked cars, including the Fusion and Fiesta.
