Up for your consideration is a extremely nice well kept original 1972 f-100 Sport custom short bed. This truck has been in Georgia for many years and always garage kept or under shelter from the outside elements while not in use. This truck starts,runs, and drives great with a factory stout 360 big block backed behind a fully functional manual 3 speed transmission. The truck still retains the factory column shift which shifts great with absolutely no problems. Truck starts every time with the added electronic ignition, brand new carburetor, complete tune up kit including wires, plugs, new battery, new water pump, battery cables, alternator, all new hoses etc..Engine looks great and has been detailed fairy well with no major leaks and does not smoke at all!! All the fluids have been changed recently.  New master cylinder so the brakes are all in great working order as they should be. New dual exhaust with factory exhaust manifolds. The interior is almost perfect considering the age of the truck. The dash itself is perfect and has never been cut. The dash pad is perfect and the seat was just reupholstered .Factory installed seat belts along with a modern AM/FM player that works great. Heater works great with all new heater hoses and heater core installed. All the glass is perfect original condition with no cracks or frosting. The truck still retains some factory carlite glass in most places.This truck is absolutely amazing everything works top to bottom except for the gas gauge at times can be temperamental. All the lights including the side marker lights, tail lights, turn signals, emergency flashers, wipers, back up lights,tag lights etc.. work perfectly.  As far as the body I guarantee you wont be disappointed! All the chrome seems to be present and in really good original condition The body of the truck is very straight and has no rust holes anywhere except one small hole on the front lower fender passenger side.  The inside of the bed is mint condition with NO rust at all. The bed sides are perfect. Near Perfect floor pans,front body mounts, tailgate, hood, core support etc.. I have included some pictures down below of all these areas. I just drove this truck 80 miles with absolutely no problems. Tires have plenty of tread left and It will also come with a full size spare tire.  This truck is good to go mechanically needing nothing but a driver. Although not a frame off restoration, this truck still gets more comments than you would ever believe!! The previous owner loved this truck and took it to plenty of local car shows in the Atlanta area. This is one of the nicest meticulous maintained  67-72 ford truck unrestored body's that I have seen in years. So good luck and you don't want to miss this one! Low reserve and remember its only well kept and original one time.

Truck may be for sale/trade locally so I have the rite to end auction early if sold. When reserve is met it will be sold here only. 
I have described the truck to the best of my knowledge. But if you have questions please ask before you bid and only bid if you plan to pay!
500.00 deposit due rite after auction ends unless other arrangements discussed previously. 

Truck will be sold with a good clear Georgia title along with a Georgia bill of sale. Also included will be the original 72' owners manual.

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia

Fri, Jan 16 2015

These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.

Automakers' rush on aluminum may result in shortage

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Aluminum is the new buzzword in the automotive industry. The latest Range Rover and Range Rover Sport both take advantage of the lightweight material to shave huge amounts of body fat (only it's called "aluminium" over there). Audi and Jaguar have been using the stuff for years in their A8 and XJ, respectively, and now, aluminum is going mainstream, arriving on the 2015 Ford F-150.
While we're excited to see aluminum make an impact outside the premium market, its widespread adoption apparently won't come without some problems, notably in terms of supply. "There isn't an automotive manufacturer that makes vehicles in North America that we're not talking to," Tom Boney, of Novelis, the largest global supplier of aluminum sheetmetal, told The Detroit News.
According to Boney, Ford's use of aluminum on such a large scale has forced auto manufacturers in "every boardroom" to reconsider their plans following the F-150's unveiling, for one simple reason: there's not exactly enough aluminum to go around, at least in the short term. The auto industry presently only accounts for six percent of the aluminum sheet produced, but as the material is adopted by more and more brands, that figure is expected to swell to 25 percent within the next six years.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
