Sometimes you get the chance to find some well preserved trucks.  And sometimes you get to find some that are just amazing.  This is the amazing one.  So I thought I would test the waters and see if there was anyone interested in it before I start in on it.   The truck from what I have learned belonged to a gentlemen in California who owned an old oil business back in the day.  He ordered it with this custom color for his business.  The truck was in the CA desert its entirety and was built in the San Jose plant.  The vin plate has the letters "SS" stamped in the color section.  That means special order from the factory.  The truck is almost all original.  It has never been painted and does not have any cancer.  In fact, it is very straight except a little fender bender that any collision shop with the right tools could help pull out.  It still has the spare tire under the bed and the beds strips are usable if you wanted to keep that original patina look that is very popular.  The interior is in good shape for it's age and the dash is uncut... The chassis has not been chopped and it is all original.  The only thing that was changed recently by an excited owner that I bought it from was the motor.  It came with a 223, but now has a good running 390 Engine and 4 speed trans.  The motor runs good and the brakes work as well. He left the linkage on the steering column in case you want to go backwards.   The motor seems to have lots of power.  And the install was clean.  Not hacked up.  If you have any questions please call me or send me an email. Jason 480-619-8353     I have owned probably 30 of these trucks and have loved them all but one.  :)  

Thanks for looking, The truck is currently in Arizona.

If you are a zero bidder, please contact me before bidding.  I will cancel your bids if you don't qualify yourself upfront.  

And although this is a running driving truck, I can't guarantee it will drive across the country or even 50 miles across town.  So please make arrangements to have it shipped if you buy it.  I also have tried to describe the truck to the best of my ability.   I strongly recommend that you call or email me with your questions so that you are not confused at what you are getting.  There is NO WARRANTY expressed or implied.  Buyer buys it AS IS.

You can now order Domino's pizza from your Sync-equipped Ford

Tue, 07 Jan 2014


The news keeps pouring in from the Consumer Electronics Show now underway in Las Vegas, and the latest comes from Ford which has announced two new apps for its Sync AppLink system.
First up is a cooperative app launched by Ford together with Domino's Pizza that lets drivers of the former order pizza from the latter right from their car. The service allows those with Ford Sync AppLink in their car or truck and are registered with a Domino's Pizza Profile to place an order for their favorite pie using Dearborn's voice-recognition software for either pickup or delivery. Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.

Ford unveils its facelifted Falcon finale with new XR8

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

While its days may be numbered, Ford isn't just going to let its Falcon sedan limp out for the Australian market. No, the Blue Oval is releasing a refreshed Falcon for its final years, and it's lead by this, the new XR8. That's right, this dead-car-driving is going to go out on a high note.
Ford's global design DNA dominates the looks of the new Falcon, with a grille reminiscent of the US market Fusion and the European-market Mondeo. The headlights aren't a straight port, and boast their own unique LED running light pattern (at least on the XR8), but the overall look is strikingly similar. Out back, LED taillights highlight the rear of the Faclon. Despite the substantial new fascia, this is still a mid-cycle refresh. That means most of the rest of the Falcon's body panels are carryovers from the current model.
The XR8 model, shown above, arrives with a supercharged V8, allegedly displacing 5.0 liters. Unfortunately, details on the Falcon's mechanicals are in remarkably short supply. Ford has committed to a range of turbocharged four, as well as turbocharged and naturally aspirated six-cylinders, in addition to the V8, although specifics on those mills aren't available.

Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output

Mon, Jan 6 2014

How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.
