1970 Ford F100 Styleside Auto California Blue Plates Restored on 2040-cars
San Diego, California, United States
Very clean 1970 Ford F100 Styleside. Built in San Jose in October of
1969 and sold new in Los Angeles. It has remained in southern
California ever since. Completely rust free body, not a single bubble.
Newer 302 V8 with a lot of power and it is very responsive. Modernized
with an upgraded 4 speed automatic transmission so it gets good mileage
on the highway, trans cooler, electric fuel pump, electronic ignition,
modern front end with power disc brakes, positraction rear end, new
suspension, dual batteries, dual electric cooling fans, electric start,
power locks, and a lot more. This truck is trusted to drive into the
desert and everywhere else. It has been driven a couple thousand miles in 2014 so far and it is ready for more.
Super straight body with clean quality 2 stage jet black paint. New carpet and headliner, all new window seals, and weatherstripping. New windshield, original blue license plates, clean California title in hand and current registration through September 2014. This is used regularly, just drove 40 miles the other day. It has power steering and a tow package. It has been used as a daily driver and it is ready for that. Runs very cool and has no smells of fuel, smoke, or anything you normally smell when you are driving an old vehicle. This feels like a newer truck all around and looks very clean up close. Starts right up and idles perfectly. Does not sound loud, the exhaust is quiet. No smoking or issues at all mechanically. True HID headlights. This F100 is ready for anything and ready to drive anywhere. This F100 is basically finished so I am selling it to fund my next project. I priced it very low considering the condition. I took many pictures on 5/16/14 and a walk around video to show it well. Click on View All below to see all the pictures. International buyers accepted. Email any questions and they will be answered thoroughly and honestly. It is ready to drive away safely. |

Ford Fiesta ST gets worked out on the track
Sun, 10 Mar 2013We're big fans of the turbocharged Ford Focus ST, and we're plenty excited that the Blue Oval will be offering a similar treatment on the smaller Fiesta here in the United States, too. We first saw the production-ready Fiesta ST five-door at the Los Angeles Auto Show last fall, and Ford has now released this video of a Euro-spec three-door ST being flung around the track.
But not just any track - the challenging Track 7 of Ford's Lommel Proving Grounds in Belgium. The course features 20 turns and plenty of elevation changes along its 2.7-mile loop, and David Put, a vehicle dynamic specialist at Ford, shows just how good the pint-sized Fiesta ST is at handling the lot, even getting the smallest ST up on three wheels every now and then.
It sure does look like a lot of fun, and makes us really eager for our chance to try this ourselves. Scroll down to see the hot little Ford getting busy.
Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.
