This terrific long-bed is my daily driver. My only driver.
I found this truck in April this year and it's titled in my name as a clear NC title. This Ford has the original 240 ci engine with 1bbl carb and non-thermactor distributor. Manual steering, manual brakes, manual everything. All lights, signals, wipers and heater/fan work 100%. the original owner(s?) never installed seat belts - still wearing the rubber floor plugs when I bought it. New Beams belts with correct Ford buckle were installed May 2014 to take my kids safely to school and back. It has a new clutch (Sept 2014), new master cylinder and front cylinders (May 2014), new whitewall radials (May 2014) and I just found some very rare polished poverty hubcaps that are correct only for the deluxe 1967 - 1969 models. The ivory headliner and visors are original and in very nice condition, as is the black rubber floor mat I've covered with a carpet to protect it. Seating is original, but lower bench cover is pretty worn out, hence the saddle cover. New rear window seal, new complete exhaust, new windshield and seal, etc., etc. Essentially this is an unrestored, rust-free NC truck, built in the Norfolk, Virginia plant. It has the radio delete, all gauges work perfectly (new temp sender as well) and truck drives, shifts, steers and handles very well. No issues. Top speed with this 3-speed and gearing is honestly about 60-65 mph. Repainted less than four years ago in the original "L" code, "Holly Green". At some point, pine strips were installed but they're a bit warped over time. I have 1" neoprene rubber strip to install if one wishes. Bed and tailgate are overall in excellent, lightly used condition. Also included is a brand new power brake set-up from GPS Automotive out of Buffalo, NY, custom built for the 6 cyl F-100 with drum brakes. It has the larger 8" booster for even better power. It remains wrapped up, just haven't installed it yet if I ever get tired of the pedal effort currently required... OEM glove box manual and reprint of all three service manual volumes included. |

Ford EcoSport Storm concept swallows a Raptor in Sao Paulo
Sun, 02 Nov 2014Ford rolled into the Sao Paulo Motor Show with some pretty cool crossovers in tow, the awesomest of all being the EcoSport Storm concept shown above, which draws its inspiration directly from the F-150 SVT Raptor. It packs a lower grille clearly derived from the now-famous muscle truck, as well as a Blue Storm paint job, black and silver trim, special graphics, lower body cladding and 215/75 R15 off-road tires. Don't go holding your breath for a supercharged V8, though; made locally in Brazil, India and Thailand, the tiny EcoSport is typically powered by a three- or four-cylinder engine.
The Storm isn't the only specially prepared Ecosport on show, however, joined as it is by another pair called Beauty and the Beast. Beauty is decked out in matte copper with a black roof, LED fog lamps, 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires and an interior complete with four individual bucket seats, leather upholstery and a full multimedia suite. The Beast, meanwhile, takes a sportier approach with a white pearl finish, blue and orange trim and three-bar grille. It also wears 18-inch wheels and LED fog lamps, but its interior swaps out its rear seats for a bike rack.
Joining the EcoSport show cars was an Edge crossover equipped with all the latest technologies and done up in bright red with three-bar grille, bulging hood, and an interior featuring 10-inch touchscreens and leather upholstery. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
This 2,000-hp Mustang is in serious need of wheelie bars
Tue, 25 Feb 2014The Ford Mustang on the right is drag racing with the standard technique. The Mustang on the left, driven by David Measell, is using a new "rear bumper only" technique that evidently surprised everyone at the South Georgia Motorsports Park strip - including Measell.
Measell said his outfit just bought the car the week before the event, noting that it has more than 2,000 horsepower. Speaking of his "flying" run, Measell said, "We turned it up to dip on down," by which he meant they turned up the power in order to get his time down. Turns out all that power and all that traction sent the nose straight up into the air almost as soon as the race began.
He told an interviewer afterward that this was his first race in a "regular car" since he normally drives a pro-mod. "I like my wheelie bars," he concluded. You can see how he got there in the video below.
Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
