Ok, so I am relisting my truck with a very low reserve. It needs to go to a good home and to someone who will drive it. I can give you a hint..reserve is between $3750 and $3850. The truck is worth much more in my eyes but I know what she can do and what I've done to her. But she needs to find a home. So here is what you are looking at =
This is a 1969 F100 long bed (8ft) "Custom Cab". The truck has a 360 engine but I was told that it was bored to the 390. I never went into her to find out if that was a fact or not but I can tell you she has more power than you will ever need. I bought this truck from a farmer in Georgia, which it still has the Decatur. Ga dealer metal plate on it, and made it my loving project for 5yrs. The engine runs super strong and has even compression. Living in Charleston parking can be a problem so I did convert her to power steering. I wanted to keep the "3 on the tree" configuration so I modified the steering shaft. The power steering box came out of a 1972. I left the breaks original but I did have my mechanic run all new lines and we dropped in a new master cylinder. We also wanted to put in a new edelbrock carb so we went ahead and did that. All the body work was done by me. I took the entire exterior body apart and sanded her down and primed and painted her. The bed was in such good shape, all I did was rolled on a bed liner. All the steel is good, the bed isn't even warped on bit. All the trim and the grill is original or bought through Denise Carpenter (the only company that carried certified Ford parts). The interior is super clean. The seat is original and I was planning on having it re-covered, but I never got to it (hence the saddle cover). The dash is new ( I replaced it). and the all gauges are in working order.
the cons on this truck:
1) the passenger window needs some love on the track. she sticks at times.
2) the key that starts the truck is the key that unlocks the passenger door only. I had to do work on the lock system and I had a lock from another truck so I used it. You can buy a new hole key set from Denise Carpenter or LMC for pretty cheap. But I never locked the doors so wasn't an issue to me.
3) on the driver side front panel (between the hood and the windshield) there is a good dent. It was if the hood flew up or something fell on it. I never bothered to deal with this due to the fact it just gave it character.
4) the exterior rear window seal is cracked and missing about 1/2" but can be easily replaced....I just never got to it.
5) I threw a hub cap about a month ago and never new it so it's missing one :-(
This truck is super clean and ready to dive on a daily basis or as a weekend enjoyment.
Happy bidding!

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring
Mon, 15 Jul 2013The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.

Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes B-Class Electric Drive is a rock star, FedEx tests electric trucks
Thu, Oct 2 2014The Mercedes-Benz B-Class Electric Drive is in a new music video for I Lived by OneRepublic. The band's singer, Ryan Tedder, has also been brought on as a brand ambassador for the German automaker. OneRepublic will also be performing the song at the Mercedes-Benz Media Night on the eve of the Paris Motor Show. No word if Mercedes plans to offer hordes of screaming teenage fans as an option package with the B-Class Electric Drive. See the video (the car shows up around the four-minute mark) or read more in the press release below. FedEx is testing converted electric delivery trucks with diesel range extenders. Looking to shrink its carbon footprint, the company has converted a handful of trucks as part of a pilot program. In addition to battery packs, each truck is equipped with diesel turbine generators (supplied by Ian Wright's company, Wrightspeed) to provide electricity when the battery is depleted. Because the diesel motors aren't powering the vehicle directly, they can continuously run at their most efficient speed, making the trucks about twice as efficient as those powered by traditional means. Read more at Wired. Ford's new aluminum-bodied F-150 will be 5 to 20 percent more efficient, the company says. The fuel economy gains depend on the particular version of the truck, but the biggest improvement will likely come from the 3.5-liter V6 and the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V-6. Automotive News predicts the F-150 SFE to be rated at 21 mpg city/28 highway/23 combined, which are identical figures to the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. The result could be a noteworthy fuel economy battle between Ford and Ram trucks. Learn more at Automotive News. The US Department of Energy is providing $25 million in funding toward reducing the price of algal biofuels. The goal is to get the price of these renewable fuels below $5 per gasoline gallon equivalent (gge) by 2019, and less than $3 per gge by 2030. The money will fund projects to develop better algal cultures that produce biofuel and other useful bioproducts, and projects to boost biomass productivity. The DOE says it wants to help develop a "bioeconomy" that provides jobs, helps the environment and ensures energy security. Read more at Energy.gov. This content is hosted by a third party.
