1964 Ford F100 Short Bed Pick-up on 2040-cars
Marine, Illinois, United States
|
Up for sale is my 1964 Ford F100 Short Bed Pick-Up. It has a 1985 ford 302 V8 with a matching 1985 Ford C-5 automatic transmission. It shifts smooth, runs nice and has a list of new parts. I have replaced the distributor cap and rotor, valve covers, valve cover gaskets, transmission pan gaskets, transmission fluid, engine oil, oil filter, spark plugs and wires, it has newer tires with about 75-80% tread left, a new horn, electronic fuel pump, radiator cap, gas cap, battery, battery terminals, and I had a power rack and pinion steering kit from No-Limit Engineering installed, which before labor cost right around $900, and I also had power brakes put on it. The brakes are power drum brakes. I also had it painted when I bought it, which was about 6 or 7 years ago. The paint is not the greatest. There is some paint damage around the gas cap, which you can see in the pictures, the day after I had it painted gas leaked out and it ate through the paint because I parked the truck on a hill after I filled the truck up with gas. It happened 6 years ago, it hasn't gotten worse over time, I replaced the gas cap and the leak was no more. The rubber ring on the inside of the cap was dry rotted. The paint is the worst thing about the truck. I haven't gotten it repainted because I spent the money to get it painted and I didn't see any reason to go ahead and fork out the money to get it repainted again because of the stupid gas cap. Anyway, I have quite a bit of time and money into my truck and if it sells it sells. I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells locally and if you wish to contact me and you are in the local area and have something you think I might want to trade from the 50's or 60s, give me a ring. 660-909-2907 |

Has the 2015 Ford Mustang gained hundreds of pounds?
Sun, 01 Jun 2014Automakers face competing interests when it comes to developing a new generation of vehicle. On the one hand, companies want to build their cars to be safer and better handling, with more equipment and maybe even larger dimensions over the model it's replacing. On the other hand, they strive to keep weight down to the benefit of both performance and fuel consumption. Usually something has to give, and in the case of the new 2015 Ford Mustang, those efforts may have resulted in a weight penalty of two or three hundred pounds.
This according to Blue Oval modifier Steeda Autosports, which states that "the 2015 Mustang ended up gaining 200-300 pounds in this remake". Despite the Mustang not being on the market yet, it would appear the leading Ford aftermarketer has been given early access to the 2015 model to help jumpstart its tuning efforts (a rather common development among trusted tuners). If Steeda's assertion is accurate, that would make the challenge of getting the new pony car up to speed for both Ford and aftermarket customizers like Steeda that much greater.
We're waiting for official word from Ford on the veracity of Steeda's claim, but if true, it's bound to be a bit of disappointing news for legions of Blue Oval performance enthusiasts. Watch this space for more.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
