Drive Type: 2WD

Mileage: 100,000
Trim: Sport Custom
Up for auction here is a very clean original 1971 Ford F-100 Sport Custom. I bought the truck a year and a half ago with a bad motor in it and has been my weekend project. The truck originally had a 390 V8 and C6 trans. The 390 dropped a rod so it was not rebuildable. It is now equipped with a 302 and a New C4 trans with a nice mild shift kit. Power steering and power disc brakes. I did a full tear down and inspected everything and it has new comp cam and lifters, timing chain, oil pump, and bearings. The cylinders looked great. It was not a full rebuild. Still the original rings and heads. I knew the history of this motor. It was pulled from an 82 mustang GT, and ran quite well when pulled. But it runs awesome now great power and runs this truck down the road very nice. Has a 600 four barrel Holley carb, edelbrock performer intake, ford racing shorty headers, electronic ignition, all new full length flowmaster dual exhaust. All new hoses, belts, water pump, fuel pump, rebuilt radiator. As I said above it also has a rebuilt C4 auto trans with mild shift kit, new u joints as well. I also converted the fron suspension over to disc brakes, replaced the radius arm bushing as well at the time. Truck drives down the road smooth true and slight. Just put new tires on it on the last 1000 miles too. All of this work has no more than 3000 miles on it. The truck it self has just 100K on it. The odometer reading when I bought it was just 97k. And based on the condition I truly believe that is actual miles. It bares 90% of the original paint, its thin on the hood and top but I get two thumbs up every where I drive it. I had the seat reupholstered in orignal style, as well as replaced the rubber floor mat, it all shows very well. It also has a rare factory AM-FM radio that works great. As you can see it has cab lights, which are factory, uncommon for a F-100 obvesely a special order truck when it was new. It originated from the Seattle Wa area when new, but I bought it here locally. It does have some rust in the passenger floor area, but other than that, anything else is just surface. The windshield is also cracked but not in the line of sight. Its a tight solid truck. Bed is super straight and has ben line-xed. Its never been abused. Everything works lights, horn, lighter etc.... I really hate to see it go after all the time I have spent on it, but I have just recently moved and don't have the place to store it. And I have other projects that I need the space for. Its currently parked at a friends house now, so when I want to drive it I have to rotate vehicles around, not to convient. This truck is ready to go and be your daily driver I ve done everything I could to make it 100% reliable. Ive taken it on three 300 mile round trip road trips and it runs like a champ. Its just time for someone else to enjoy it. So please bid with confidence, its hard to remember everything, so please feel free to ask. Thanks ands happy bidding.

New Ford dedicated hybrid due in 2018, will it fare better than C-Max?
Fri, Aug 22 2014Everyone likes to go after the champ. When it comes to fuel economy, that means taking on the Prius, which is something that automakers not named Toyota have been trying to do for years. Just because no one has been able to beat the Prius for fuel economy numbers isn't stopping them from trying. Hyundai was just caught with a potential Prius-fighter and now we have news that Ford is joining the party. Well, is going to join again. The last time Ford said it was going to challenge the Prius, it didn't go quite as planned. The C-Max hybrid was heavily hyped as a Prius-beater and was originally rated at 47 miles per gallon. Of course, it later needed to be recalculated to just 40 mpg and sales tanked. So, it's back to the Blue Oval drawing board, according to Automotive News, which is reporting that Ford is readying a brand new gas-electric hybrid due in 2018 as a 2019 model year vehicle. A plug-in version is in the works, too, and the car will reportedly share a platform with the upcoming next-gen Focus and Escape models. About those C-Max sales. They have not been stellar for the C-Max hybrid, which started strong but suffered when the reality of the lower fuel economy was realized. So far in 2014 (through the end of July), Ford has sold 11,685 gas-electric models and another 4,759 plug-in Energi versions. The trend for the standard C-Max is downward (from 20,125 during the same time frame in 2013) and upward for the plug-in version (2,915 in the first seven months of 2013).
Jay Leno's Garage goes eco with Ricardo HyBoost
Mon, 17 Mar 2014"Now before you turn away, this is not another boring hybrid car thing..." Despite the slightly defensive introduction from Jay, the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is actually pretty fascinating. The Ricardo HyBoost is a 2009 Ford Focus that has had a 1.1-liter engine swapped in for the stock 2.0-liter four. That might not get you performance enthusiasts out there fired up, until, that is, you hear that the 1.1L is also fed by both a turbocharger and an electrically driven supercharger for an instant-on "torque-fill" effect. Sounds about right, considering that Ricardo engineering is part of the genius behind the McLaren P1.
Perhaps most exciting of all, the Ricardo folks say that the package should run somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,100. A sort of performance-hybrid that makes sense for the frugal driver and the enthusiast one, then. There's a lot more to the HyBoost, all of which can be seen in the video below.
2014 Ford Transit Connect configurator fires up for the whole family
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The second-generation Ford Transit Connect is almost upon us, and to get work- and family-oriented customers ready for the new model, Ford has launched a configurator for both van and wagon versions. Both body styles will go on sale early next year with the base TC Van starting at $22,000, but customers wanting side windows and rear seats will have to pony up at least an extra $3,000 for the TC Wagon.
Ford is definitely looking to get back into the family van business with the 2014 TC Wagon offering three available trim levels, two engines and the choice between five- and seven-passenger seating (with two wheelbases). Like many recent Ford products, a fancy Titanium trim level is offered, and opting for it will cost you - this trim starts at $29,000, and we were able to spec it out with a panoramic roof, tow package and front and rear parking sensors for a little over $33,000.
Businesses looking for a small, fuel-efficient work vehicle now get more options on the TC Van like the choice of split, hinged rear doors or a liftgate (with or without glass), a long wheelbase ($1,000) and Ford's CrewChief vehicle tracking system ($925). Fully loaded, this van is still costs less than the fullsize E-Series. On both Van and Wagon, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine is a $795 option, but it is only offered on short-wheelbase models and Ford has yet to release power or fuel economy specs yet. With the standard 2.5-liter engine, the TC will get up to 21 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.
