Original slick '66 right down to the Wallace bumper sticker.  240 engine that runs strong but has some lifter chatter but good oil pressure. Factory automatic transmission, shifts good and goes down the road like a '60's truck should. All new brakes, shocks, universals, exhaust and tires. Gauges don't work but the idiot lights and other lights do.  (I have the Custom Cab gauge cluster but like the base model gauge better. Truck will be sold with the Custom Cab cluster.) 

The truck came from Arkansas last year where it spent it life as a farm truck so the body is pretty solid. There is a dent in the front right fender that looks like it happened long ago. The only rust is in the front right cab mount, both floor supports where they meet the rocker panel and a few small spots on the bottom lip of both cab corners and the floor toe kick area that would be easily welded. Cab roof lip, fender wells, door bottoms, windshield area, hood all rust free.  Hood has some dents.  Bed floor is solid with a few pin holes but the floor is fairly straight being that it was a work truck.  Tailgate is the original '66 with only a few pin holes above the bumper sticker.  Cool patina paint that only age can create. Sun baked and cracked, not a fake sanded down faux patina. Frame is perfect with not even pitting. This truck has probably spent more time in the Soybean fields rather than on the road.  

Original Custom Cab truck with all the regular stainless and aluminum trim ordered with a factory Automatic and NO RADIO. No patched dash just never had one. (There is a hole in the left side cowl where a spotlight was added at some point but is gone so only a 1" hole remains.) Original tow mirrors as well. This truck runs and drives and is currently registered in Connecticut now. Check out the pictures and ask questions. I'd keep it but I have a '66 factory short 4x4 I'm building so this one has to go.   Bill of sale only since it's registered in Connecticut and over 25 years old. (CT doesn't trust it's taxpayers with vehicle titles or firearms...they feel we're to stupid).

Ford reveals new rapid prototyping and low-volume production techniques [w/video]

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

It's called "F3T," and that stands for Ford Free-form Fabrication Technology. The process that The Blue Oval has developed means being able to sidestep the weeks-long process of tool-and-die making when engineers want to construct a new part, allowing them to fabricate a three-dimensional part from a two-dimensional sheet of metal in just hours.
While F3T is being developed it is limited to "low-volume prototyping or even low-volume niche vehicles," but the next step is to evaluate it for use in Ford's global manufacturing facilities. You can find out more about it in the video and the press release below.

Ford taken to task by gov't for Chicken Tax end-around

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

Ford 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.

Woman reunited with stolen Mustang after 28 years

Sun, Dec 28 2014

An enthusiast Christmas story: Salinas, California resident Lynda Alsip bought a 1967 Ford Mustang in 1984 when she was 17 years old, having saved $800 after a summer of toil at a grocery store. She got a vanity plate that read "LYNDA67," for the year she was born, but she only got to enjoy the car for two years: in 1986, after a night out, someone stole it from her apartment complex. She hadn't seen it since. Then a man – another Salinas resident – tried to register the car at the DMV this year. He said he bought it as a project car in 1991, yet the DMV couldn't find any record of it. The DMV office sent the case of the untraceable car to the California Highway Patrol, where Officer Christopher Menchen dug into the records, and his search paid off. The officer located Alsip's stolen record report from 1986 and connected the Mustang to it's registered owner in 1986, who was Alsip's mother. The CHP found the forest green Mustang in the man's garage, and they figure it's been there since 1991. After waiting through the still-ongoing three-month investigation, the CHP reunited Alsip – now a wife and a mother of two – with her car on December 22. It's undriveable, but her original vanity plate is back on and she plans to restore it. The video above has the story.
