This is a 1966 Ford F100 step side, There is too much to say about this truck in this small space but I will try. Lets start with the good, the frame has been fully boxed, 2002 crown victoria police front suspension, 1994 Lincoln mark 8 independent rear suspension, 1996 Ford mustang 4.6, T45 manual 5 speed transmission, brand new radiator core support, brand new American Autowire wiring harness not installed yet (cost $500), hydraulic clutch master and slave cylinder not installed yet, shortened steering column, hydroboost brake booster, auto meter tach, speedo, brand new fuel cell 15 gallon, brand new fuel pump and filters, 4.6 wiring harness has been striped down and labeled just needs to be finished being hooked up. Now for the bad or unfinished, all the brakes need to be gone through (needs lines, pads, possibly calipers), needs drive shaft fit to truck ( comes with one), has dents in every panel (some small some pretty big), has some rust in lower spots ( rear cab corners, small spots underneath, I fixed a lot of them already and I have a new panel for the left rear cab), has no bed floor and will need the wood kit, This was a desert truck from west texas so it does not have much rust except where dust settled in some of the lower spots and holes over the years, needs the front bumper and lower grill, tail gate is not that great. I have tried to list everything I can think of but there may be some more small problems or more new parts to come with it. With that being said this is a great truck project with most of the hard work being already done, the motor does start but does not have a cooling system hooked up so I can't run it long. Will be a great truck for a hot rod or leave the paint alone and have a rat rod, should handle great when done with 4 wheel independent suspension and disk brakes.

Winnebago re-introduces classic Brave RV [w/video]

Fri, Jun 6 2014

Winnebago is saying 'Let's do the time warp again,' using its new Brave RV to do it – have a look at the first Winnebago RV from 1966 and you'll know exactly where this one comes from. The modern version of this swinging sixties motorhome is accurate from its size, either 26- or 27-foot version, to its trademark eyebrow above the front windshield. The foldaway bunk above the front seats that necessitated the eyebrow design has been updated, and is now a power bed that descends from the ceiling. It is among a set of standard features that also includes a 19-foot motorized awning, leveling jacks at all four corners, heated mirrors, LED ceiling lights, two available floorplans and detailing like a workstation for the front passenger, a sliding dash cluster and and a waterfall countertop in the kitchen with built-in extensions. The Brave sits on a Ford F53 chassis complete with its Triton V10 engine and five-speed automatic transmission. No word yet on any potential diesel alternatives. Naturally, that 1966 price of $4,000 will also come in for an update, but the company hasn't yet revealed it. The good folks from Winnebago will be happy to take you on a thorough personal tour of the Brave in the video below. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.

Ford's Mulally now said to be in lead for Microsoft CEO job

Sun, 29 Sep 2013

There have been rumors that Ford CEO Alan Mulally could assume the top job over at Microsoft, whose CEO, Steve Ballmer, will retire within the year. Mulally hasn't come out and said that he's considering moving to Microsoft after (or before) his contract with Ford through 2014 ends, but sources in the know say he's the front-runner to become the tech giant's CEO and has opened up to the idea more in recent weeks, AllThingsD reports.
Mulally is no stranger to Washington, where Microsoft is located, having worked in the state for Seattle-based Boeing Commercial Airplanes as CEO years ago. He also recently was an adviser to Ballmer in an effort to realign the company's management structure to help it become more competitive in a fast-changing computer hardware and software market. And when Ford developed its Sync digital interface, it tapped Microsoft to provide the operating system, Microsoft Auto. Perhaps the least crucial connection - but nonetheless an important one - is that Mulally still owns a house in the Seattle area, and it's been said he wants to return there, according to AllThingsD.
A main challenge Microsoft's next CEO will face is how to manage the company's numerous, fractured operations and, eventually, streamline them. But even on this front, Mulally has experience; after all, it was he who ushered in an era of global Ford vehicles, after the automaker had become complacent developing and selling vehicles by region leading up to the economic recession of 2008-2009.
