1974 F100 Short Bed on 2040-cars
Athens, Georgia, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Ford
Drive Type: rear wheel drive
Model: F-100
Mileage: 19,761
Trim: Fleetside
I'm listing this 1974 F100 for a close friend. I'll describe the truck as best I can,and let the pictures tell most of the story. This F100 would be an excellent base for restoration or to street rod.The truck has 19761 miles showing on the odometer,pretty sure that is NOT accurate,or at least is 119,761. It has a 302 v-8 that runs good and doesn't smoke,but has 3 small oil leaks. The transmission engages,shifts and pulls perfectly and the differential is smooth and tight.All of the gauge's as well as the dash and interior lights are in place and work as they should. The truck has good tire's @60% tread or better and the brakes work fine,save a VERY slight pedal pulse,probably from front rotors needing turned. The exterior overall is good for a vehicle of this age,with the dings and scratches you would expect to find. The drivers door is missing the aluminum trim and the left fender is missing the f100 emblem. Theres rust in the floorpans next to each door,and surface rust in the bed and small place on the body.The doors and rockers are solid. The seat has tears and needs recovered,the carpet has wear as does the dash cover,but you would expect this in a truck of this age. The overview would be a solid truck to use for reliable transportation or work,or a great start for a hot rod or restoration project. Vehicles of this age do not require a title in Georgia,so this truck is being sold with a bill of sale only. If you need this notarized we can do this as well,but definately check the laws where you intend to register the vehicle as they differ vastly from region to region. I'm sure if your area required a state title,then a bonded title could be obtained,but this will be the responsibility of the buy. If your going to need shipping then we will assist you however we can,but all arrangements and expenses are on the winning bidder. Feel free to inbox me with any questions or concerns,I'll try to answer prompty and accurately. If something arises that I can't handle I'll put you in touch with the owner directly,he can answer anything you'll need to know.Thanks for looking and good luck!

Feds looking into Ford Explorer exhaust leak complaints
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There may be a burgeoning problem with exhaust leaks in the 2011-2014 model year Ford Explorer. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is examining multiple complaints of a gasoline smell in the cabin of these SUVs. However, the exact cause of this problem is still unknown.
"The agency is reviewing all available data and will take appropriate action as warranted," said a NHTSA spokesperson in an email to Automotive News. Owners seem to generally complain on the regulator's website of the smell entering the cabin through the air vents. At this time, the government organization has not yet opened an official investigation into the problem, though. When it does begin inspecting vehicles, NHTSA posts a detailed breakdown of its public data online.
Similar problems have been reported about the Explorer in the past, though. In 2013, Ford issued a recall for the 2013 model year of the SUV due to a fuel leak that could cause drivers to smell a gasoline odor and repaired them again later for another possible leak. In response to Autoblog's questions, Ford responded via email: "We are not aware of a NHTSA investigation. We are currently reviewing the case and in the event that any action is required, we will address it promptly."
Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
My year in EVs: 8 electrics that are changing the car industry
Wed, Dec 1 2021The year 2021 will go down as an inflection point in the auto industry’s transition to electric vehicles. It's when many much-anticipated models became reality. No longer sketches or sketchy prototypes, electric vehicles appeared from all corners with everything from the Lucid Air to Ford Mustang Mach-E changing how we think about transportation. I managed to drive a lot of them, and as I went through my notes, I realized IÂ’ve got a mini memoir of the seminal EVs of 2021. HereÂ’s my take on eight of them. Hummer EV Easily the most over-the-top EV I tested this year. The 1,000-hp super truck lived up to the hype with its domineering presence, stupendous power and simply being a reincarnated Hummer. I took it for a short spin on- and off-road at the General Motors Proving Grounds in Milford, Mich., and was impressed with the airy cabin, removable sky panels and expansive touchscreens. Yes, I crab walked, which felt like steering a pontoon boat, though I can see why it would be useful. Lucid Air Dream Performance The most beautiful sedan I tested all year, EV or otherwise. Unlike the futuristic Mercedes EQS — which is quite attractive — LucidÂ’s car is a blend of mid-century modern interior aesthetics and classic European exterior styling. When I walked up for my test drive, someone who IÂ’m pretty sure was comedian Jon Lovitz was sitting inside and taking it all in. As it sat in the valet of a hotel in a wealthy suburban enclave north of Detroit, the Lucid drew more attention than any of the Mercedes, Cadillacs or Lexus models passing by. The driving experience was enveloping. Starting at $169,000 for the Performance model (reservations are closed), the Lucid I sampled packed 1,111 hp and 471 miles of range. From the precise steering to the comfortable suspension, the dynamics were spot-on. It's a formidable product, and all the more impressive given itÂ’s LucidÂ’s first. Chevy Bolt EV The Bolt was the most pleasant surprise for me. It handled well, offered low-to-the-ground hot hatch dynamics and the steering was dialed-in. Adding a crossover variant for the new generation was a smart play. On a summer morning where I went to a first drive of the Ford Bronco at an off-road course, my hour-long commute in the Bolt was an enjoyable appetizer. The Bolt was also my biggest disappointment due to its extensive recalls for fire risk. Ironically, I had the Bolt in my driveway when the initial recall went out for the previous generation (2017-19).
