1966 Ford F250 Custom Cab 2 wheel drive with 4 speed. This is a very solid truck with the original 352 engine and 4 speed transmission completely and professionally overhauled less than 1200 miles ago. With that installation, of course, was a new clutch, pressure plate, flywheel and harmonic balancer matched to the crankshaft. The ignition has been upgraded to electronic. The carburetor was rebuilt in a professional shop on 08-25-13 and the new Dunlop tires were installed on 08-31-13. The intake is a four barrel, however a two barrel carburetor with adapter plate is currently installed. I have the original four barrel that will go to the new owner along with the four tires recently removed, as well as many other spare parts.
Installed last winter are dual piston front calipers and disk brakes, along with a dual diaphragm 7 inch power brake booster. The entire front suspension was removed and new bearings, bushings, shocks, and updated I beams were installed. The posi rear end was serviced and new seals and bearings were installed along with new rear shocks. Also, there is now a new power steering unit and radiator. The heater box, fan, motor, and heater core are new, and if the new owner wishes, my shop will install a complete R134 A/C system for an additional $1200.
Everything installed on the truck is in good working order. The mileage may or may not be accurate. This is a used vehicle. It has normal wear and tear - a few scratches and dents. It is however a very dependable truck that probably will haul anything you want to put in it. I drive it often and have never had any issues. With that said, I do not offer any warranty stated or implied to anyone that purchases this truck. It is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction at any time.
A non-refundable $500 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction end.

Mustang driver proves wheels are overrated
Mon, 21 Apr 2014We don't need to tell you that there's something missing in the image above. What we do need to tell you is that this is not a picture of a parked car stranded on the highway. This is, rather, just one frame from video of that three-wheeled Mustang traveling down the highway at highway-appropriate speed.
We don't know where you'd have to be nor how badly you'd have to be there to go shooting down the freeway in a car with three wheels, but if the New Daily News is correct, that place is somewhere in Texas. The video's short, but you'll have plenty of time to shake your head at it by just scrolling down.
GM readying aluminum-body fullsize pickups
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ford's extensive use of aluminum in its 2015 F-150 is a big deal. A really big deal. Big enough, in fact, that General Motors is reportedly changing its fullsize pickup strategy. According to The Wall Street Journal, The General has locked in partnerships with Alcoa Inc. and Novelis Inc. - companies that will supply aluminum for the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks.
"Ford's introduction of the 2015 F-150 pickup truck was a game changer, and it's the first, not the last, conversion of this type," Novelis spokesperson Charles Belbin told the Journal. The switch to aluminum has allowed Ford to shave roughly 700 pounds off its fullsize truck's curb weight. And while official mileage ratings have not been announced, the weight loss should go a long way for improving efficiency, especially when combined other efficiency-minded improvements including better aerodynamics and new, turbocharged V6 engines.
Of course, aluminum-bodied cars are nothing new. But extensive use of aluminum in a major, best-selling product like the Ford F-150 is expected to kick off widespread use of this weight-saving material as availability rises and cost decreases. The WSJ reports that GM had originally explored the idea of moving to aluminum pickups back in 2008, but abandoned the idea due to cost concerns amid economic woes.
Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
