New lower reserve.
It runs well, runs out at 50 +/- mph but the ride is rough by today's standards. Steering is amazingly tight, breaks pull slightly to the right, trans sits in gear and is quiet. Transmission is a 4 on the floor and the shift pattern is kinda loose but works fine once your use to it. Headlights, brights, blinkers work, break lights work but stay on, gauges, fuel and water temp work. Doors slam shut tight and are in line. Drivers window has a crack which is not bad, the window functions fine. Passenger window has multiple cracks and a small hole, The window functions fine but should probably be replaced. Windshield, rear window and window vents are in good condition with no cracks and function properly. Wipers are vacuum and need new blades, the previous owner said they function fine. However, I have not tried them. Heater works well.
Sheet metal is ok. Doors, cab and floor have been worked on, they look good but were not professionally done, fuel tank works well and doesn't seem to leak. Tires are ok, frame seems solid, breaks seem good and the cooling system seems to work fine and doesn't seem to leak. Battery and generator seem to work fine but I haven't owned it long enough to know. The exhaust system is ok at best and will require attention.
When I purchased it I drove it over a 100 miles home and other than complete strangers gawking and waving the trip went well and was a non event. Wherever I go people come up to me and tell me how cool it is. This has got me thinking maybe it's to nice for a firewood truck and maybe I should go find an old 1989 beater and beat that to death. So I have decided to put it up for auction. I don't want to give it away as my family is already in love with it, but i'd like to put the money into my barn.
The truck runs well and turns heads. It is 53 years old so it will need some attention. In the right hands it could be made show quality. Or park it in front of your business as is and watch the folks, young and old, flock to it.
Good luck bidding. I can be reached via email or by phone at 517 673 3030. Thank you. Kevin

Ford gets its Movement on, releases 'Sounds of Focus' tracks
Sun, 25 May 2014Ford has, for at least the second year in a row, teamed up with techno promoter Paxahau and a couple of artists to make music in recognition of the Detroit Movement music festival. This time, Movement performers Ataxia and Secrets were selected by Ford, and were invited to spend some time at the automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant, which gives birth to the Ford Focus and Focus Electric models.
Now that we know the what, how about the why? According to Ford, "Detroit is uniquely tied to the origins of the electronic music scene. In the 1980's variations of electronic music stemmed from inspirations of industry, including the automotive sector." So, there you go. If you're interest is piqued, feel free to read the press release, watch the video and listen to the tracks below.
Ford celebrating 80 years of Aussie utes as it prepares to shutter Oz manufacturing
Wed, 26 Feb 2014Ford is ending Australian production after 90 years in 2016, and with it may go perhaps the most iconic vehicles in its auto market - the ute. Car-based pickup trucks like the Ford Ranchero and Chevrolet El Camino were always more of a curiosity than a true market force here, but in Australia, they have long proven hugely popular.
As the legend goes, Ford invented the niche after a farmer's wife had asked Ford Australia's managing director for a more utilitarian car. Her request was simple: "My husband and I can't afford a car and a truck but we need a car to go to church on Sunday and a truck to take the pigs to market on Monday. Can you help?"
Ford's design team came up with a two-passenger, enclosed, steel coupe body with glass windows and a steel-paneled, wooden-frame load area in the rear. The sides of the bed were blended into the body to make it look more unified, and to keep costs down, the front end and interior were based on the Ford Model 40 five-window coupe. Power came from a V8 with shifting chores handled by a three-speed manual. Within a year, the new vehicle was ready, and production began in 1934. Lead designer Lewis Bandt christened it the coupe-utility.
This is what a 3D-printed liquid metal Ford Torino looks like
Sat, 12 Oct 2013Artist Ioan Florea has encapsulated a 1971 Ford Torino with 3-D-printed liquid metal transferred onto the car using technology that he developed, and the result is a stunningly shiny, seamless design.
"The surface has the highest coefficient of reflectivity never achieved before," Florea told us in an e-mail, using "nano-materials and nano-pigments that create an internal three-dimensional structure and dictate the polymer how to behave." Sure... We'll leave it to him to make any more 3-D-printed liquid metal-transferred art pieces.
Florea grew up in Romania, and the motivation behind picking the old Ford as his canvas came from his childhood memories of what an American car is - "big and wide and fascinating," he says - and the European name of the car itself, which it shares with an Italian city.
