I bought this very nice fully restored 1966 F-100 short bed step side about 4 years ago, from what I was told to be the original family. The prevous owner passed away and the son had no interest in keeping it so I bought it from him. The truck had a full frame off restoration about 9 years ago and rarely driven afterward. This truck had previously been in North Carolina for years from what I was told by the previous owner. I actually still have the original 1966 North Carolina licence plate that will come with it. It runs and drives great with a completely rebuilt big block 390 and a c6 automatic transmission. Its sports a Weiand aluminium intake manifold, holley carburetor, breather, valve cover,electronic cooling fans and more. Truck starts every time with the added electronic ignition, and newer battery. It also has power steering and has already had the power brake conversion done. Engine and transmission runs/shift out great with no problems at all. The engine does smoke at times but runs strong with absolutely no problems. It may simply need valve seals but I honestly have not looked into it. The brakes are all new and in perfect working order as they should be. Truck also rides on a set of 15" smoothie wheels with brand new tries that I installed in 2011. Dual exhaust with headers that lead into a set of flowmaster mufflers that sound perfect with the truck. The interior was completely redone and still looks great. The dash pad has one small crack rite in the middle only (very small). Added seat belts. All the glass is perfect with no cracks. All the gauges work perfectly except for the speedometer.It needs a new speedometer cable.. Heat works great. All the lights, tail lights, turn signals, emergency flashers, wipers, etc.. work perfectly. As far as the body I guarantee you wont be disappointed! No rust and a very nice high dollar paint job that was done when restored. I would say the paint is a solid 8 out of a 10 score. The biggest flaw in the paint is on the driver side front fender where I paid top dollar to have the paint touched up properly and it was not. It is so small you cant even see it from pictures. All new chrome, new weatherstripping/ rubbers on everything, new bumpers,etc... The inside of the bed is mint with brand new wood and stainless steel strips. Perfect floor pans,core support, battery tray, front body mounts, tailgate, hood, etc.. I have included some pictures down below of all these areas. Bare in mind this is a show and go truck not a cheap backyard job. This truck is very nice and garage kept at all times. Truck needs only minor things to be perfect again, or just drive as is and show it. Everything was brought down to bare frame and built back up. Everything under the truck is new just like the outside. This truck has won trophies best in class and has been in multiple weddings. Good luck happy bidding and Low Reserve! Truck may be for sale locally so I have the rite to end auction early if sold. When reserve is met it will be sold here only. I have described the truck to the best of my knowledge. But if you have questions please ask before you bid and only bid if you plan to pay! 500.00 deposit due rite after auction ends unless other arrangements discussed previously. Georgia does not and will not issue titles for classics of this age. Truck will be sold with Georgia state bill of sale along with a Current signed tag recite. With these items you should be able to obtain a title in your state if needed. |

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls
Tue, 04 Nov 2014
Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
Ford wants to double hybrid offerings by 2020
Wed, Jan 15 2014The Blue Oval is looking for folks on the other side of this Big Old Sphere to get on board with its hybrid offerings. Ford executive Raj Nair, speaking at the Detroit Auto Show this week, said the US automaker wants to double the number of hybrids models it offers by the end of the decade, Reuters reports. Details of what that actually means is anyone's guess, as it was unclear how many of those models would be in the US and how many would be overseas. That said, Nair did say that prospective customers in regions such as China and Europe would drive the expansion of offerings. Ford got off to a great start in the US last year on its hybrid sales, but then tailed off towards the end of 2013. Ford more than doubled its green-car sales in 2013 to almost 88,000 units. In that number were more than 37,000 Fusion Hybrids and more than 28,000 C-Max Hybrids sold domestically. The company also sold almost 7,500 Lincoln MKZ Hybrids. Ford's green-car totals for 2013 were up fivefold at the mid-year point, hinting that Ford's hybrid sales plateaued, at least temporarily, in recent months.
Ford Announces Four Recalls, 1.4M Vehicles Affected
Thu, May 29 2014Ford is taking a bit of the spotlight away from General Motors, announcing a major group of recall campaigns, covering a total of 1.4 million vehicles built between 2006 and 2013. Let's start with the big one, which covers the Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner and, according to The Detroit News, Ford-built Mazda Tribute CUVs. 915,216 vehicles are covered, all of which were built in model years 2008 to 2011. 736,000 vehicles are in the US, while Canada then Mexico make up the vast majority of the remainder. The problem is due to an issue with the torque sensor in the steering column, which could lead to sudden power steering failure. Manual steering would still be available, though. "Dealers will perform one of three service fixes, depending upon what diagnostic codes are shown when the vehicle is taken to the dealer," Ford spokeswoman Kelli Felker wrote to Autoblog in an email. "They will either update software for the power steering control module and the instrument cluster module; replace the torque sensor; or replace the steering column, which includes upgraded power steering control module software." The most recent generation of the Ford Explorer is suffering from a similar malady, thanks to an intermittent electrical connection (we think that means short circuit) in the steering column. Like the Escape and Mariner, manual steering would still be available in the event of a power failure. Ford will recall 195,527 examples of its Explorer, 177,500 of which are in the US. This recall covers model years 2011 to 2013. According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has stated that Ford will inform owners of affected vehicles by July 25. Ford is also recalling 200,000 Taurus sedans, over a corrosion issue in the license plate lamp. This particular recall, which covers vehicles from model years 2010 to 2014, is limited to drivers in northern climes. Vehicle owners in southern states are free to pass on the recall. Finally, 82,576 Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln Zephyr/MKZ sedans from 2006 to 2011 are being recalled because of floormats that can interfere with the accelerator pedal. Dealers will replace the offensive floormats with newer examples. "Ford is committed to providing our customers with top quality vehicles. We are equally committed to addressing potential issues and responding quickly for our customers," Felker wrote.
