1960 Ford F 350 in pretty good shape for a 53 year old truck. I bought it for a firewood truck but I am having second thoughts, I think it's to nice for that. 


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. So, if it brings a fair price I will let it go, if not, I guess it will make a fun grocery getter.   

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 exec reveals new F-150 Raptor packs 450 horsepower

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Between the new GT supercar, Shelby GT350R muscle car and F-150 Raptor off-roader, Ford had quite the array of performance machinery on display at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month. One thing it didn't reveal about any of the three, however, is how much power they'd pack, but a senior executive at the Blue Oval automaker has reportedly let the cat out of the bag when it comes to the Raptor. During a televised interview during the Rolex 24 at Daytona this past weekend, Ford's product development chief Raj Nair is said to have revealed that the new F-150 Raptor will offer 450 horsepower. That's pretty impressive from a 3.5-liter turbocharged V6, and would put the new Raptor out ahead of the 411 hp produced by the 6.2-liter naturally aspirated V8 in the previous SVT Raptor. That doesn't give us the whole picture, though, because in a vehicle this big especially, torque will play a huge factor. The outgoing Raptor offered 424 pound-feet of twist, and the existing 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine is already producing 420 lb-ft – so it seems fairly safe to assume the new Raptor will eclipse those figures as well, but we'll have to wait for official word to find out for sure.

Ford increasing Super Duty production by 15 percent

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Ford has announced a hefty $80 million investment in its Kentucky Truck Plant, which is responsible for building the F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 versions of the Super Duty pickup. The influx of cash will add 350 jobs to the factory.
The investment is also good for a 15-percent increase in annual production thanks to retooling and other facility upgrades, which equates to an extra 55,000 units of production. Considering that Ford makes even more money off its Super Duty than it does on the hot-selling F-150, this could mean some serious coin to Ford's bottom line.
Hop below for the full press release from Ford on its latest investment.

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.
