Canton, Georgia, United States
|
Up for your consideration is a really nice original one owner 1967 F-100 short bed ranger. I purchased this one directly from the original owner two months ago. The truck was purchased brand new on March 18 1967 for the amount of 2,437 dollars at Stovall Motor Company that was in Cornelia Georgia. The truck has never been outside the state of Georgia. The owner drove the truck short distances to and from work while working at Lockheed in Marietta Georgia. The truck has 87,xxx original documented miles. The owner bought the truck and never altered anything except for adding 67' galaxie wheel covers, and adding the hood lip molding that comes on the 70-72 f-100. Both items were purchased directly from ford. Under the hood is the original 352 big block mated with a smooth shifting manual 3 speed column shift transmission. Dual exhaust ran all the way to the back of the truck. The original windshield washer bag is still present. The brakes were completely gone through in late 2010 for the amount of 680.00. Truck had very little miles driven after so the brakes are still great. I had a complete tune up done to the truck when I purchased it including new carburetor,coil, plugs, wires, cap, rotor button , oil change , filter, electronic distributor conversion, battery, etc.. The engine was mildly detailed at this time as well. Truck starts every time and runs out great with no major leaks. All the gauges are crystal clear and work as they should. Brake lights , headlights, backup lights, horn all work. The turn signals are currently not working. I was told all it needed is a flasher relay? Wipers are fully functional, as is the heater as well. The interior is in decent shape. The dash does have some cracking. The very top of the seat has some damage from the sun. The carpet and the rest of the seat looks really good considering the age of the truck. All the glass is fully functional with no cracks or defects except for some small amounts of fogging in the corners of the windshield. The body of the truck has to be one of the nicest unrestored well kept I have seen yet ! There are no rust holes on the outside body anywhere. No through rust in the bed floor itself. No rust in cab mounts , core support , not even the battery tray! The ONLY noticeable rust I could find was is in the tailgate. All this can be seen in the pictures below. The original owner stated that as far as he could remember the paint was original. He always stored the truck in a garage or under a carport for protection against the elements. You can see from the pictures it shows well for a driver when kept clean. The only dent I found was in the middle of the hood. The grill is in really nice condition, as is all the chrome as well. Not seen in the pictures but will be sold with a good full size spare tire with the original spare frame hold down. Its ready for the next person to fine tune it to your liking and drive!! Have Fun and Good luck.
I have tried to be as descriptive as possible on this truck .It is used and will be sold AS IS... please if you have questions ask before bidding and only bid if you plan to buy. Truck will be sold with almost all the original tag receipts for most all years, original 1967 licence plate and registration, original owner card, maintenance report/records, 6,000 mile maintenance report, original ford operators manual /cover, original carburetor and engine tag. And of course whatever else I have to go with it . TRUCK WILL BE SOLD WITH A CURRENT GEORGIA STATE BILL OF SALE AND CURRENT SIGNED REGISTRATION. GEORGIA IS NOT A TITLE STATE FOR CLASSICS OF THIS AGE. WITH ALL THE DOCUMENTS ABOVE YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO OBTAIN A TITLE IN YOUR STATE IF YOUR STATE REQUIRES A TITLE. Whoever buys will be the 2nd registered owner of this truck. Bid to win !! On Jan-05-14 at 19:56:30 PST, seller added the following information: I have the truck for sale locally and have the rite to end auction early if sold locally. When the reserve is met it will be sold here only. |

Jay Leno drives postcard-perfect '32 Ford Highboy Roadster
Mon, 25 Aug 2014At the turn of the century, it was arguably the Honda Civic that best defined inexpensive performance tuning, and in the '50s it was the Tri-5 Chevys. One of the earliest platforms to gain a huge following among young people looking for a cheap way to go fast was the classic '32 Ford Highboy Roadster. This week, Jay Leno's Garage looks at one of the very first vehicles that defined the look of the hot rod heyday.
This '32 Ford was built in the '40s and graced the cover of the fourth issue of Hot Rod Magazine back in 1948. All of the hot rods that you see shining at car shows today owe a serious debt of gratitude to this roadster. It bears all of the cues that define the look, including a notched frame and hidden door hinges. Under the three-piece hood is a flathead V8 boasting all sorts of period modifications, including copper cylinder heads. It was seriously fast in its era too, and proved it by reaching 112.21 miles per hour on a dry lakebed in 1947.
These days, this hot rod is on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum. Although, if you can't make it to California to see it, the United States Postal Service is celebrating this Ford with one of its two hot rod Forever stamps. Like Jay says in the video, in terms of hot rodding, "it all comes back to this." Check out the video to learn more about this rolling piece of tuning history.
Ford hit by lawsuit over hybrid technology from, surprise, Paice
Fri, Feb 28 2014The name Paice will be familiar to anyone who's been deep in the weeds of hybrid history, but it will probably be new to anyone who simply drives one. The key part of the story is something called "HyperDrive," which is the name given to a gas-electric powertrain technology developed by Alex Severinsky and patented in 1994. HyperDrive is a way to get the energy from both the electric battery and the engine into the wheels, seamlessly. The patents are held by Paice, which is an unusual company (its HQ is a house in a retirement community, right by a golf course) that does nothing but litigate. You can read more on Paice here. The latest case targets Ford and the hybrid and plug-in versions of the C-Max and Fusion models as well as the Lincoln MKZ. Paice claims that it held "over 100 meetings and interactions with Ford" between 1999 and 2004, and gave the automaker, "detailed information about the hybrid technology that Paice had developed." The suit also alleges that: For more than five years, Paice answered inquiries from multiple departments within Ford, believing in good faith that a business relationship between Paice and Ford would be mutually beneficial and advance the acceptance of Paice's technology. ... After years of Ford learning the details of Paice's hybrid drivetrain technology, Ford elected not to enter into a business relationship with Paice. The suit is officially known as, "Paice LLC v. The Ford Motor Co., 14-492, U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland (Baltimore)" and you can read the PDF here. Ford told AutoblogGreen, "we do not comment on pending litigation." Toyota settled a similar patent-infringement case in 2010 and now pays Paice almost $100 for every hybrid it sells. Paice is still in court against Hyundai and Kia. In 2010, Ford also settled with Paice but they agreed to keep negotiating on other issues until at least January 1, 2014. With that date now in the past, it didn't take long for Paice to file papers to get the two sides back before a judge. That's where it appears to be most comfortable.
The big dune jump and the damage done
Mon, 20 May 2013The Silver Lake sand dunes see their fair share of well-built trophy trucks executing impressive jumps. Drivers build insane pieces of machinery for the express purpose of sailing through the air like mad men and women.
Mike Higgins is no stranger to the area. His heavily modified Ford trophy truck has gone flying through the sky on more than one occasion, but he recently bit off more than he could chew. After hitting a particularly lofty dune, Higgins went airborne for a ridiculous 180 feet before becoming intimately familiar with the finer points of gravity.
While Higgins nailed the jump, his landing fell short of wowing the judges. The impact very nearly broke his truck in two. Despite the mechanical mayhem, the driver walked away without a scratch, proving that occasionally miracles really do happen. You can check out the jump and the subsequent destruction below for yourself. Be warned: there's a fair bit of foul language.
