1973 FORD F100. TONS OF NEW PARTS!!! Up for auction is my 1973 Ford F100. It took me a long time to find a truck that has such a nice, solid body and frame, and almost 3 years to get it where it is today. Time and money constraints and it is time to sell it. Since I purchased the truck about 3 years ago, it has had the front end completely re-done, new clutch, new brakes, a new headliner, oak steering wheel, leather seat, floor pan repair and new carpet, new radiator, new carburetor, new headers and custom exhaust with thrush mufflers, new rear bumper, new waterpump, new freeze plugs, new valve covers, pinion seal replaced. In the last year or so I have replaced all of the lug nuts and installed new tires. This truck is in excellent condition, especially for a 73. It runs great and sounds wonderful with the headers and thrush mufflers. I just had it pass Va state inspection, and is good until May of 2015. If you are looking for a truck to turn some heads and get some thumbs up from other drivers, this is the one. This would also make a good project if you wanted to clean up the engine compartment and give her a nice paint job and make it a weekend "show" truck. All said and done with the original price of the truck, I am probably about 2 times more into it than my reserve price. If you are looking for a truck without major rust issues, then this is the one you might be looking for, especially a truck that is here on the East Coast. Frame and body are nice and solid. I had even started brushing, sanding and priming/painting the frame. As far as replacing any items, I really can't think of anything that it might need in the near future as most of it has been replaced. In fact, it also just recently had a new alternator and thermostat as well. If you have any questions, please send a message, or call Craig at 703-300-4902. Good luck and happy bidding!!!! |

Ford taken to task by gov't for Chicken Tax end-around
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Ford is in a bit of a pickle for importing and selling Turkey-built Transit Connect cargo vans as passenger vehicles in the US, then converting them to commercial-vehicle specification stateside in an effort to bypass a 25-percent tax imposed on vehicles imported for commercial use. Automakers are required to pay a 2.5-percent tax on imported passenger vehicles.
The Blue Oval got into trouble for this in a January ruling in which U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials asked Ford to stop the practice of importing the Transit Connect vehicles with passenger seats, then removing and shredding them. Now Automotive News reports that Ford is appealing the ruling. The 25-percent "Chicken Tax," as the tariff is often called, is 50 years old and was enacted as a response to a German tariff on chickens. Like Ford, Chrysler bypasses the higher tariff, but it does so in a different manner. It partially disassembles Sprinter cargo vans before shipping them to the US, then rebuilds them at a plant in South Carolina.
But the ruling against Ford's strategy states that it "serves no manufacturing or commercial purpose" and is there to "manipulate the tariff schedule," Automotive News reports. As Ford's appeal goes through, it is importing the Transit Connect and paying the higher tax, hoping for a favorable outcome and planning to build the next-generation Transit Connect, which it plans to launch before the end of the year, in Spain.
Project Ugly Horse alive and kicking at Road & Track
Thu, 29 Aug 2013The hallways of the Autoblog campus are much quieter now that Zach Bowman has taken his prose, along with his welders, wrenches and hammers, over to the digital pages of Road & Track, but that doesn't mean our favorite project Mustang is gone forever. Project Ugly Horse is still coming along, and Zach has gifted us another update on his unfoxy Fox Body.
Last we saw of the Ugly Horse, Zach was strengthening up the '89 Mustang's chassis as he prepares to stuff the turbocharged, direct-injected EcoBoost engine of a Ford Focus ST under the hood. First things first, the old mill must go. Head on over to Road & Track to catch the latest chapter of Project Ugly Horse.
Shelby to auction 2012 GT350 No. 1 in Vegas
Thu, 19 Sep 2013With Shelby preparing to wind down production of its brutal GT350, a 624-horsepower Mustang that's meant to go up against the Roush Stage 3 in the world of tuned Ford ponycars, the Las Vegas-based tuner is looking to give back to one lucky customer. It'll auction off the very first GT350 ever produced, at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas, a three-day event that runs from September 26 through September 28.
The GT350 is a monster, with a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 that's been tuned well past 600 horsepower in a time when Ford's own Shelby-branded GT500 barely reached 550 horsepower. The GT350 is much louder than Ford's effort, too, both visually and audibly. The wide body look isn't what we'd call conventional, but on a car that sounds and goes like this, something extreme is needed. According to Shelby American's vice president of production, Gary Davis, "Carroll was very excited about the new wide body option, so that was included on this car. It's the first 2012 GT350 serial number from our anniversary year. It is a very special car." Wilwood brakes, a massaged suspension, and some very fat, sticky tires add to the Shelby experience.
This particular GT350 will be lot number 750, and will cross the Barrett-Jackson stage on Sunday, September 28.
