Up for sale is my 1970 Ford F250 Highboy.. This truck is a rust free west coast truck.. Originally from California then later in its life it ended up in Oregon, where I purchased it from. The Truck is rust free with exception to some surface rust in the bed and some around the door weather stripping.. These trucks are extremely hard to find in rust free condition.. The gentleman I purchased the truck from stated that the original owner had a slide in camper that he hauled in the bed of the camper and never was used as a work truck.. The original owner replaced the original 360 with a 460 some time ago. The 460 runs good has a little blow by no knocks or taps. Starts right up, has a electric choke. The mileage on the engine is unknown. The truck appears to have been repainted in certain areas with some amateur body work to repair dents.. Original paint colors were Mojave tan with a wimbleton white roof. Has factory am radio that works great, cargo light that still works, original ford rubber floor mat, sport custom trim. vintage Kelsey hayes brake controller that works great, 7 prong and 6 prong trailer plugs on the rear.. The truck has 3 fuel tanks that all work, The one behind the seat is the only one that has a fuel gauge. rides nice down the road, no slop in steering. The doors close nice with no play in the hinges.. Tires are old, will need balancing or replacement. No power options manual brakes and steering.. Really not to hard to steer or stop with the smaller tires on it.. Ok heres the issues the truck has: the pass side window regulator is bad, have to manually raise window up and down. The motor smokes a little when first started, prob needs valve seals. There is some bondo in the rear corner of the roof, looks like a dent was filled, couldn't imagine it being rust.. The pass side door has a dent and some surface rust where the paint was damaged.. The seat that's pictured is out of my other truck, it does not come with this truck, I will include a red NOS ford factory seat cover that can be dyed black if you wish. The original seat will be re-installed before sale. The intercom speaker under the dash is not included will be removed as well. The headliner looks like a replacement and does not fit to well. Overall this is a nice truck, I really hate to sell but have to many vehicles right now. I have a 2 wheel drive 70 f250 that I will be selling if the new owner is interested. The 2wd truck has a mint interior and would make a good parts truck Please look at all the pictures and ask questions. Please remember this truck is 43 years old and not perfect. sold as-is.

Holy crime-fighting Ford F-150, Batman!
Thu, 18 Jul 2013What would Batman drive for his weekly trips to Home Depot for the bits and pieces needed to keep his lair deep below Wayne Manor in tip-top condition? Certainly not the Batmobile - there's no way a 4x8 sheet of plywood will fit between the wheel wells, not to mention the fact that jet turbine engines have an unfortunate tendency to set trailers on fire when towing...
No, what Batman needs is a pickup truck. The boys from Ford teamed up with Galpin Auto Sports to build just such a machine, and it has just debuted at Comic Con. Designed by Jared Barris, grandson of the legendary kustomizer George Barris, the 2012 F-150 pickup you see here, dubbed Crime Fighter, is painted Tuxedo Black with Ferrari Red highlights and is affixed with fins on each side of the truck bed. It's nothing if not unique.
Well, it's at least unique for now. According to Ford, Galpin in Southern California is willing to take orders for customers looking to don a cape and hit the town for a night of crime-fighting action. Or trips to Home Depot. Check out our high-res image gallery and then scroll down for the official description from Ford. We're waiting for details such as pricing and build time from Ford, and we'll update this post if and when we hear back.
Ford looks to protect logo from Toronto mayor followers
Fri, 15 Nov 2013One is a member of the Detroit Three and the maker of the Mustang, Fusion, Explorer and F-150. The other is an admitted loudmouthed, drunk-driving, crack-smoking mayor in Canada. Unfortunately for one, it shares its name with the other. Yes, Ford Motor Company is going to great lengths to keep its iconic Blue Oval logo from being appropriated by supporters of besieged Toronto mayor Rob Ford.
At a United Way event earlier this week, some of Mayor Ford's fans showed up with shirts that featured the automaker's logo with the words "Ford Nation," on them. Naturally, Mayor Ford signed them. FoMoCo was quick to issue an unhappy statement:
"Ford did not grant permission for use of its logo. We view it as an unauthorized use of our trademark and have asked it to be stopped," spokesperson Jay Cooney said. There was also a statement from Ford of Canada's Twitter account after a user alerted the company:
Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with
Mon, 12 May 2014Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
