My husband and I have owned this truck for 2 years now. We bought it in Seattle with a rebuilt v8 390 engine, c6 transmission (50,500 miles on it) and dual exhaust. The
body is straight and it's got a clean title. We've driven it < 1000
miles since we've owned it(most of that was our move to Portland). We've put a few thousand dollars of work
into it since then (~$4500, all mechanical, all done by
professionals). We focused on getting the innards running great, and then we were going to move on to the exterior. Most of the documentation for this work is
available. We:

- replaced radiator
- added electric choke (two pumps of the accelerator and it turns on.)
- rewired dash (to fix coolant gauge and speedometer)
- fixed low idle vacuum and timing issues.
- fixed transmission kick down linkage so its super speedy at passing
- replaced carburator
- replaced distributor
- replaced breaks (shoes and cylinders)
- fixed fan clutch which was stealing horsepower from the engine
- transmission flush
- replaced rag joint

Things that still need attention:

- the Exterior. Its a straight body. It will need attention before it will be a head
turner. Some surface rust. The previous owner bondo'ed it as well. We unfortunately didn't do enough research to see the extent of it until we were getting estimates on paint jobs.
- steering column bearing needs to be replaced. We were going to put
power steering in it, so we deferred the work. The rag joint tore and was fixed, but this apparently didn't fix the steering issues.
- odometer is now not working (just realized this looking at old
paperwork. :-/)


The car is registered in Oregon as a Special Interest Vehicle, which
means you don't have to pay insurance on it. We wanted this to be a truck handed down to our kids. We've reconciled this with the reality of not having a place to work on it and our desire to move around more.

We are EXTREMELY motivated to sell this truck. We're moving and it needs a new home too.

The car is parked near the corner of 19th and NE Schuyler. Come by, kick
the tires. If you like it and want to take it for a test drive, call
803.553.5801 or 803.221.2672 to setup an appointment. Serious offers
only, please. If you think you have a better price and it's reasonable, tell us why and we'll reconsider. Thanks!

Project Ugly Horse: Part IX

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

One Step at a Time
Nearly every flavor of exotic driveline has been shoved into the ubiquitous Ford at some point or another.
Chuck Schwynoch had been patiently listening to my ramblings on the other end of the phone for a solid half hour. I'm not too big of a man to know when to ask for help, and at this point, I desperately needed some assistance. The truth is, working on a machine like a Fox Body Mustang is as easy as breathing thanks to the wealth of information available on the web. Nearly every flavor of exotic driveline has been shoved into the ubiquitous Ford at some point or another, and odds are the sorry souls behind those builds shared the highs and lows of their torment with the internet community.

Ford reveals automated Fusion Hybrid

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Autonomous cars may still be in their infancy, but more and more big names in the auto industry are diving in head first. Nissan is already making strides with a semi-autonomous Leaf EV and General Motors is planning to offer semi-autonomous tech by 2020. And then there's Google, doing its thing with a fleet of Toyota Prius. Now, Ford is showing off its latest automated effort, a driverless Fusion Hybrid.
Partnering with the University of Michigan (Go Blue!) and State Farm Insurance, the project is part of Ford's Blueprint for Mobility, the company's plan for transportation beyond 2025. "The Ford Fusion Hybrid automated vehicle represents a vital step toward our vision for the future of mobility," Chairman Bill Ford said. "We see a future of connected cars that communicate with each other and the world around them to make driving safer, ease traffic congestion and sustain the environment."
The automated Fusion features four LiDAR infrared sensors that scan the road 2.5 million times every second, using a principle similar to the echolocation used by dolphins or bats. Using the infrared light emitted by the LiDAR, the car can draw a picture of everything within 200 feet to create a map of its surroundings. According to Ford, the sensors are able to tell the difference between a paper bag and a small animal from a football field away.

2015 Ford F-150 configurator is ready to go to work

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

Ford is inching towards the on-sale date for the eagerly anticipated, aluminum F-150 pickup. While we're preparing to drive the new truck (expect our take on it sooner rather than later), the best-seller has reached another, albeit more minor, milestone as its online configurator has officially been switched on.
We took to Ford's consumer website to mess about with it and see just how ridiculous of a truck we can build. Among the fun things we discovered were these two nuggets - the most expensive truck we could configure was not the top-end Platinum model, but instead the King Ranch, which rang up at $65,955. The other exciting discovery? The new truck would be available in a questionable shade called Blue Jeans (shown above with the optional contrasting Caribou paint). Yep, Blue Jeans.
You can head over to Ford's consumer page and build your very own aluminum F-150 now. Take a look.
