Up for sale is a 1966 Ford F100 Custom Cab Long Box Pickup. This Pickup belonged to a good friend of mine who Passed away earlier this year from Lung Cancer. It was His pride and joy, but he was unable to finish it before he passed. The title is clear and his widow has it. She is looking for the receipt's for the machine work and parts. I'm not a Ford guy I have always been a mopar guy. Pete was Ford all the way, you could ask him about any question about Ford's and he could tell you right off the top of his head. But he is not here for me to ask. I can tell you that he always did thing's right with no short cut's. I know the motor was torn down and completely rebuilt. But I do not how much it was bored or if the crank was turned or just polished. The heads look to be fresh from what I can see. It has a pair of stainless steel headers on it, some pipe,some bends and a pair of mufflers in the bed. There are some NOS emblems in boxes and other odds and ends. I have looked around the shop and found the parts it will take to get it running,but I would and know Pete would use them as cores. I work for Auto Zone and all the parts are avalible. There is also a new in the box Radiator for it that goes with it. The Body is very straight, some light damage on the left side of the box. And two small holes in the door sill's that look like they were cut not rust but not 100% sure, But they are in the same place on both sides and there is no Rust any where else on the truck that I can see. It has the factory tool box on the right side of the box in front of the rear wheel and it is clean with no rust in it "see pictures". All glass is good with no crack's. Anyway this is a Project not a Driver But I do not think it would take much to make it a Driver or to restore. Pete's Widow would like to sell the truck and use the money to go spend the time she has left with her Daugther back East. Thanks for looking !!!! You can contact me after 6pm cdt at 402-714-0799 Thanks again Rick

Ford board OK with Mulally stepping down earlier
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Ford's board is open to CEO Alan Mulally stepping down before his planned departure in 2014, inside sources are telling Reuters. Ford's plan of succession, aside from who would be his actual successor, has been something approaching common knowledge - the 68-year-old former Boeing exec had plans to stay through 2014. This was recently confirmed by Mulally himself on Bloomberg Television and in Automotive News.
Motivation for the about-face comes from what Reuters calls a "growing confidence" in the current crop of Ford execs, led by Mark Fields. Fields, Ford's current chief operating officer, has been tipped as Mulally's ultimate successor, although he's far from the only person with eyes on Ford's top job. Normally, Ford's board saying they're open to an executive, that's done very well for the company, stepping down early would be nearly unremarkable. It's the timing of this announcement, though, that makes this a big piece of news.
Recently, Mulally has been the subject of rumors that he's interested in taking the CEO position at tech giant Microsoft. The Redmond, Washington-based company's CEO, Steve Ballmer, told the media in August that he'd be retiring in a year's time. The fires were stoked when tech website AllThingsD speculated that Mulally would take the top spot, despite denials from the man himself. Could Ford's current boss become the new top dog at Microsoft? Will Mark Fields replace him? Could recently departed Renault exec Carlos Tavares land at Ford in some capacity? Let us know what you think below in Comments.
Ford predicts it will finish 2013 as top-selling US brand
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Ford is ready to call the ball on its 2013 sales totals, predicting a first-place finish for units sold in the US for a single brand. The company anticipates selling more than 2.4 million vehicles when all vehicle sales over the last 12 months have been tallied, repeating the victory it trumpeted over Toyota last year.
According to Ford's accounting, it sold 329,677 more vehicles than did Toyota in 2012. This year, the Blue Oval expects that margin to grow; through the end of November, Ford says it has outsold Toyota by 396,041 units.
Retail sales of Ford products are projected to exceed 1.7 million units for 2013 (the best retail result in 6 years for the company), with passenger cars accounting for 600k of that total. The redesigned Fusion is expected to crest the 290k mark, and the Fiesta is said to be ready to hit a model-record of 70k-plus. Meanwhile, utility vehicles and trucks are still paying a lot of bills in Dearborn, with the new Escape racking up an expected 300k sales and F-Series trucks chugging along at 688,810 units sold thru November.
Ford announces four recalls, 1.4M vehicles affected
Thu, 29 May 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."
