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

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford announces e-bike project, Honda Accord Hybrid availability catches up

Thu, Mar 5 2015

Supplies of the Honda Accord Hybrid have apparently caught up with demand. Honda originally launched the Accord Hybrid for the 2014 model year, but lack of availability plagued interested customers and eager dealers alike. Honda cited "component supply constraints" - likely batteries, electric motors and the like - for the lack of available vehicles. Now, "The supply of Accord Hybrids in general is in line with the supply of the regular Accord sedan," according to Honda's Angie Nucci. Read more at Green Car Reports. Apple is seeking a resolution to a lawsuit accusing the company of poaching employees from lithium-ion battery maker A123 Systems. A123 has requested a court order stopping a former employer from breaking an employment agreement, as well as keeping Apple from encouraging the person to do so. Apple has requested more time to respond to that court order. A123 has also filed a suit accusing five employees of breaking nondisclosure agreements and going or trying to go to work for Apple. Insiders say that Apple is developing an electric car that could go into production as early as 2020. Read more at Automotive News. South Dakota's Ethanol Infrastructure Incentive Program is helping retailers fund ethanol storage. The state government has set aside $300,000 as part of the program to fund ethanol storage tanks at gas stations. The program, which originally set out to reimburse retailers for building ethanol flex-pumps, is now helping them expand their ethanol capacities. Retailers can apply for funds for pumps and storage through June 30. Read more at Argus Leader. Ford is expanding its Global Mobility Plan with the Handle on Mobility electric bike experiment. The foldable MoDe:Me e-bike is for personal use and commuting, while the MoDe:Pro is built for commercial duty, with both powered by a 200-watt motor and 9-amp-hour battery. The bikes use an iPhone app called MoDe:Link, which provides various information and controls important bike functions. Through the app, the bikes offer navigation (with traffic data, available public transportation and charging locations included), with handlebar vibrations letting the rider know when and where to turn and automatically activating turn signals. The bike can sense and alert the rider to other vehicles on the roadway. Pedal assist is based on heart rate, allowing the rider to arrive at their destination comfortably.

Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.

Couple fined for parking Ford F-150 in their own driveway

Tue, Jan 20 2015

A homeowners' association in New York is suing two of its residents for parking their pickup truck in their own driveway. David and Arna Orlando of Manlius, NY, are facing a lawsuit from the Kimry Moor Homeowners Association for parking their black 2014 Ford F-150 pickup in their own driveway. The Orlandos own their home, but common areas such as their driveway are managed by their HOA, which limits what vehicles can park in the open. They only allow "private, passenger-type, pleasure automobiles" to park outside of a garage. David Orlando says his pickup is a personal passenger vehicle and that the rule is silly. He also feels he is being unfairly targeted. A Syracuse.com reporter drove around the Orlandos' neighborhood and saw another fullsize pickup parked in another driveway, along with a large van and SUV. The Orlandos said in court documents that the pickup is registered as a private vehicle and neither of them have commercial drivers' licenses. The lawsuit was filed in August 2013 and is still in the discovery phase. Depositions are up next. New York seems to have gone power-mad when it comes to regulating common driveway activities. In a Garden City, NY, neighborhood last year police were called when two men began washing a new Volkswagen "in public view", which was against a local ordinance.
