1966 F100 twin beam. Great riding and driving tuck. A show stopper that turns head wherever it goes. It has super sharp red and white exterior with red and black interior.  Has a great classic engine growl..... Incredibly fun truck!   Whenever I drive it, passer-bys, honk their horns and give the thumbs up!!!

Engine and front end rebuilt, V8 352", 3 on a stick upgraded to Auto (C6?), nice two tone recent paint job, reupholstered seats, new floor cover, original OEM radio AM restored for authenticity with iPhone jack (note: one speaker mono in dash), new battery, many restoration touches. Comes with original Ford instruction manual, seems to have been originally sold in Florida (from name inside original instruction manuall).  From what I was told from original owner (but I do not have any documentation on this),  truck has had a rebuilt front end, new rings, bearings, timing gear chain, starter, fuel pump, and more.  I added the original AM radio from that period (mono one speaker in dash) with the iphone jack (Joe's Classic Car Radio added small circuit board integrated into older system!).  I had work finished which includes new distributor, Weber carburator totally rebuilt, repaired emergency brake by finding missing undercarriage lever, added red seat belts to match red upholstery, replaced all fluids, and other maintenance, and it wasn't cheap.  Engine starts right up.  Sounds great..... (in California you are not required to to Smog,  so its has great original sound!)  Truck runs good.  Looks like it has not been in any accidents for we saw no puddy, etc. work underside.  I also added interior side panels on doors with original aluminum trim (not pictured).   Truck bed looks like it was covered in black powdercoat.  More pictures coming.

I did not initially restore the truck and so cannot verify all claims nor was I given any paperwork.  Truck was purchased to use as a picture vehicle in some media and was driven very little in the last year, but enough to keep it well-running.   For that reason, I cannot offer any in depth details as I was not part of the major restoration process.  So there are no implied warranties or guarantees. Truck is sold "as is." 

Buyer must pick up or arrange own transportation or hauling.

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.

2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.

Again? Ford issues second 2015 Fusion and Lincoln MKZ seat belt recall

Fri, Aug 16 2019

In 2016, Ford issued a recall for 603,392 2013-2016 Fusions and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZs due to potentially faulty seat belts. Apparently, that wasn't the end of it. Ford announced another recall this week for the same issue, this time covering 108,399 2015 Fusions and MKZs.  In both cases, the seat belt anchor pretensioners are the issue. According to Ford, "increased temperatures generated during deployment of the driver or front-passenger seat belt anchor pretensioner could degrade the tensile strength of the cable below the level needed to restrain an occupant." Basically, heat could weaken the seat belts, and in extreme cases, they wouldn't be able to keep up proper safety standards. Ford knows of at least one injury that has occurred due to this issue.   The recall includes 103,374 vehicles in the United States, 4,002 in Canada, and 1,023 in Mexico. Possibly affected Fusions were built at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant between August 1, 2014 and January 30, 2015. The MKZs were built at the Hermosillo Assembly Plant between August 1, 2014 and November 21, 2014.  As a fix, Ford says dealers will add an extra coating to the seat belt pretensioner cable for protection from the heat. If this recall might affect your vehicle, call your local Ford dealership and use recall reference No. 19S25. This news comes after Ford recalled 1.3 million Fusions and MKZs in 2018 due to the possibility that the steering wheels could fall off. Fusions have also been recalled due to the risk of rolling away.
