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. |

Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Customers have spoken and automobile satisfaction is down in 2015. I'm Chris McGraw and this is your Autoblog Minute. The American Customer Satisfaction Index or ACSI released its updated numbers and according to the survey, new car buyer satisfaction is down for the third straight year. According to an ACSI press release, customer satisfaction with new automobiles has fallen 3.7 percent, to 79 on its 100-point scale. The ACSI report is based on over 4,100 customer surveys collected in the second quarter of 2015 Sitting at the top of the industry in customer satisfaction is Toyota's Lexus brand with a score of 84. Which was good enough to dethrone Mercedes-Benz, which fell 3% to a score of 83. Of the Big Three, Ford was the only domestic automaker to maintain overall customer satisfaction with its score of 81. General Motors slipped 3% to 79 and Fiat Chrysler had a 5% drop, registering a score of 75 out the possible 100. What's driving this trend of customer dissatisfaction? ASCI points to the rise in recalls and car prices. Where do you land on customer satisfaction spectrum? Sound off in the comments with your thoughts on the current state of car ownership and brand quality. For Autoblog, I'm Chris McGraw.

Meet Floyd Pullin, 102-year-old honorary president of Ford trucks [w/video]
Wed, 28 Aug 2013When we talk about trucks we often talk about how loyal truck owners are; it's men like Floyd Pullin who provide the proof. The 102-year-old man from Confluence, Pennsylvania has only owned Ford products since the 1920s, and he's done so well by Ford Trucks that the division named him honorary president for a day, not long after he took delivery of his latest ride, a 2013 F-150 STX.
That's the 16th Ford he's owned. If he bought his first when he was 16, he'd have flipped into a new car or truck about every five years. For 86 years. Not a bad run of business for either side.
Ford Trucks made a video to wish Pullin a happy birthday, which was celebrated at his local Ford dealership and was visited by a Pennsylvania state senator. You can watch it below.
