1965 Ford F100 / F250 Long Bed Truck Rat Rod Slick Sixty A Real Sleeper

 

This is a project I have had for 11 years and I am just not able to get it finished- It deserves better. A diamond in the rough- make it yours.

 

It is a 1965 F100 converted to an F250 3/4 ton- a real truck not an F100! Truck has the Dana 60 rear end with limited slip differential and 4:11 gear. It was a camper special. Has the factory bucket seat option which is very rare. Never had any rust. It is painted close to original color with exception that I matted it out so it would not be shinny. Tires are big and OK but not new. The bed has been Rhino Lined then painted to match. The truck is in great condition. Has a new front windshield with new rubber. Has a new rubber in the rear window.

 

For the cool stuff:

  • Has a factory 427- 409 FE cast iron headers from a Fairlane.
  • I installed a TKO short OD (.83) five speed transmission.
  • Has a Ford big block FE 390 that runs OK- needs to be tuned up.
  • New Holley Street Avenger 4-Brl carburetor.
  • MSD 6A Ignition.
  • Radiator is only 3 years old.
  • Custom exhaust that crosses under truck - straight pipes- but not too loud-FUN sounding!

 

It is a great driving truck just needs to be finished. Stock height with stock suspension, it is a great start to go in a number of directions: Rat Rod, Sleeper, Original or RestoMod, whatever you want. That is probably why I could never get the project done- Which direction to go? I was going to use it to pull around a Shelby Cobra I had.

 

Good clean title- currently on CA Non-Operational status. I have lots of spares that all go with the sale: Dashes, Interior parts, new stuff, etc. The reserve is half what I have in it – so if you were ever serious about doing a Slick Sixty you will not go wrong with this.

  

Condition:

Truck is serviced and ready to drive it currently is not real comfortable but it will go anywhere.

 

I have the truck listed locally so I will reserve the right to pull auction if I get a bucket load of money. It is solid and has been a garage queen for five years and it deserves better. Good luck bidding!

 

NOTES: Understanding this is a large purchase I will offer this guarantee-If you are not happy with the car after an inspection and within seven days of auction end I will give you your money back-less fees, simple. I want you to be happy.

 

PAYMENT-TERMS: Ask questions no returns unless of course, I made a mistake or you believe I misrepresented the item. I am doing my best. If there is any written conflict between Ebay boiler plate and this unique description- this description will take precedence! Please, $500.00 PayPal deposit due at auctions end balance due within 7 days of auctions end via cash, wire transfer or certified cashiers check only. (I will need to allow CC to clear prior to pick up).   

 

SHIPPING: No shipping, I will load on your truck and help out any way I can. If paid for it can stay here for a “Reasonable” amount of time.

FEEDBACK:  I am a real person not a dealer and have been a member since 1998. I have given bad feedback and received some as well. My feedback rating is important to me, but having a no hassle transaction is even more important.  If for any reason you don't feel you can leave me 5 star sellers rating in any category, please let me know before leaving feedback so I can try and resolve the issue.

Good Luck Bidding!

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.

Ford F-150 King Ranch celebrates 'history and authenticity' for 2015 [w/video]

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

What's life like on an authentic Texas ranch? We honestly have no idea, having never lived on such a ranch, but we imagine it requires lots of hard work, grit and determination to keep all 825,000 acres - that's larger than the state of Rhode Island - of the King Ranch in Texas under control. Indeed, a total of 350 vehicles, all of which come from Ford, we're told, are currently in use by the ranch. No wonder, then, that the collaboration between Ford and King Ranch has lasted for 15 successful years.
For 2015, in celebration of that 15th anniversary, Ford is debuting three new King Ranch models today at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The most significant is the 2015 F-150 King Ranch, which, naturally, will add unique interior and exterior bits and pieces to the new aluminum-intensive F-Series pickup. Color choices will consist of Caribou, Bronze Fire, Guard and Ruby Red Metallic Clearcoat, with a range of two-tones to go along with a monochromatic scheme in Caribou. Inside, a bespoke King Ranch interior will be swathed in Premium Mesa Brown leather.
Joining the F-150 King Ranch on dealership floors later this year will be 2015 King Ranch editions of the Super Duty pickup and Expedition fullsize SUV, all of which will offer similar levels of content. Scroll down for more details and two videos from Ford, and be sure to check out the high-res image gallery above, which was shot by the official State Photographer of Texas, Wyman Meinzer.

Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9

Mon, 01 Apr 2013

There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.
