This is a great find! Built and sold in TX, this truck has been in the same family since 1972. Everything seems to work on this truck (nothing is botched up) and the odometer reads 88k. Speedo works, temp gauge, gas gauge, all of it!
Spend a few hundred bucks making it legal and safe and run it the way it is! Pictures do not do it justice. This truck turns heads! Chicks dig it. Rat rod her to your personal preference. Air bag it! Run race headers, side pipes...options are endless. ....or you have a great solid start to a period correct restore. This is your truck for that too. Personally I wouldn't touch that Patina for a long time! You couldn't ask for a more attention grabbing bad ass truck. It just looks angry and instantly makes you a tough guy (or girl). Just going to the gas station I got a crowd of people around me! My girlfriend said I look sexy in it. I am very close to not selling this. The ORIGINAL 352 V8 was rebuilt with a hipo cam, head work, intake and 4 barrel. Anyone who knows the FE motor knows what that adds up to....TORQUE MONSTER! It was set up to run on modern gas, given a healthy cam (nice sounding lope), edelbrock intake and matching 4 barrel carb, ...and then the owner died. Kind of adds to the trucks mystique I think. It has an estimated 5 hours of run time to keep things lubed up. I have flushed the gas tank, replaced gas lines, installed an inline fuel filter, a new mechanical fuel pump, and she fired up and runs on all eight like nobodys business. At least one side of the exhaust is leaking bad at the manifold/exhaust donut, (old school 2' duals with cherry bombs hang in place), but it still sounds great. I ran it softly to operating temp and flushed out the oil, ran a big magnet through the oil and It was clean as could be. Zero smoke, no funny noises, just a solid healthy ford v8 that needs a good tuning. The engine is clean, all gaskets, freeze plugs etc. were replaced and block was repainted blue. If I were to keep it, this would be my path to get it on the road. -Two exhaust manifold gaskets (donut between pipe and manifold) Heck, Id probably spring for a new flowmaster or magnaflow dual set up. Looks like this exhaust has been with the truck a while.... -New Rubber -Front shocks -Drum brake rebuilds (it stops fine but its old and its fast!!!) dont be dumb. Pads and springs are cheap. -Set the timing and tune the carb. -I would probably update the cassette deck;) -Go through front end with a fine tooth comb (safety first) Replace bushings/ball joints as necessary. I didn't see anything that needs immediate attention. The interior is probably my favorite part! The factory seat isn't even worn out! There is nothing like a Red bench in a black classic pickup! The headliner and both interior door covers are in amazing shape with just a tinge of Patina... its like a work of art. You can't help but fall in love with this thing. The F100 V8 with the spare tire in the flare side is super rare. When was the last time you saw one pass you? It even appears that the original 1967 spare poly tire is mounted. The bolts have never been turned and it was under cover until now. As stated above there is a little decay under the rear fenders below the bed where wasps built large bulletproof nests that held moisture over the years. This is a seperate bolt in peice!!! No work at all!! There was a nest under the mat in the upper right hand side of passenger floor as well. Super easy fix. This is not a unibody vehicle but a heavy duty framed vehicle. The floor repair is simple and not part of the structural integrity of the vehicle. One of the doors has a couple of bondo skims (painted black) over small dents, nothing major. Never in any accidents. You will see in the pictures that the owner did a nice job of welding plate steel in the bed over the factory wood planks. Keep it like that (nice clean welding job), or cut it out and redo the the wood planks underneath for a really cool look. Cherry wood on that Patina with a red interior would look amazing!!! A little extra weight back there doesn't hurt. It has a claimed weight around 3000 but it feels a lot lighter then that.... Well that's it for now. With an average retail of 10k-14k plus in unrestored condition you can bid with confidence that you can't lose money on this beauty. Real Mans Truck all the way.

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri
Mon, Sep 19 2016Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:
