This project is WELL on it's way (as you can see by the photos) to becoming a nice ride once again. 

The body has only a few places that need to be worked out. I can't say how fast or slow it will take to knock it all out, but I estimate between one to five full days depending on what level restoration you want. The only rust out is the driver floor board. New sheet metal is included with the project for that repair. 
The exterior aluminum trim pieces have a few dings but a repairable.

Just about the only gear left to buy to complete the interior is the seat covers, but if you're going to go that route, you could use new seat cushions. I don't have the package tray or the optional dash-pad either. Included is just about all the new rubber (grommets, door seals, window seals, bumpers, etc.), if there are any missing, it isn't much. The carpet is new and rolled up, headliner is the cream crater. door panels are still in the plastic, opened, but still there. I sprang for the higher quality window felt. There is also wind lace, but I am not 100% sure it was the original color for the Palomino interior.

There is a new gas tank not installed yet. The wheels are good but could use a clean-up. The tires have held air for over a year sitting inside. I drove it up to the building but it coughed up and died. Turns out the carburetor that was on it was junk and rigged up. I bought the original model carb that happened to be in the original box. I have the right carb spacer. It was nasty, so I cleaned, glass blasted it and honed it a little. I cleaned the fouled platinum plugs and re-installed them (have a set of Iridium plugs NIB). The Edelbrock cleaner cover is blank finned, it doesn't have the Edelbrock logo written across it. If you want to use it on the carb, you'll need an adapter, the inside diameter of the cover is too large for the OD on the carb. The filter is a K&N. The plug wires installed are new, as is the regulator. I also have a new distributor cap installed. The Pertronix Ignitor kit is still in the box. The valve cover was lightly blasted and repainted with high temp red crackle paint.

There is a wolf whistle under the hood. Again, all the hood rubber is included. As far as the old parts, there is a bunch of them, in fact most everything you need is there except a good windshield, the Ford tail letters, and the chrome spears.

Most of the receipts are included. Which total around $1800. There are several parts included that there is no receipt for. The paperwork to file for a bonded title is included. I have owned the car for about two years now, the previous owner had the car for about the same length. The information for the previous owner to that is in the paperwork I have from the State of Texas. I will even forward the correspondence I have to a title company that I was going to use.

That covers most of it. 

Please ask any questions and post any concerns you have before the end of the sale.

Thank you kindly.

Ford driving Alaskan maniac rams toddler-carrying SUV

Mon, Jul 25 2016

A couple from Anchorage had a frightening traffic encounter when they were followed and repeatedly rammed by a stranger in a pickup truck. Grace Bernert, her boyfriend, and his two-year-old daughter were returning home from a trip to downtown Anchorage when they noticed a blue, 2001 Ford F-150 following closely behind them. "The guy was so close, we couldn't see his headlights," Bernert told KTVA. Bernert, who was riding shotgun, pulled out her phone to record the truck when it struck the rear end of their Acura SUV. That's when she called 911. Bernert's boyfriend tried to lose the F-150 in the Sullivan Arena parking lot, then drove to a local Ford dealer's parking lot where he drove through a maze of new Ford pickups in an attempt to shake their assailant. "We started doing circles around the brand new Fords because we thought the truck wouldn't be able to turn as fast as we would," said Bernert. "We were right, but the guy didn't care. He just kept hitting the new fords and backing up, coming after us." The truck continued to follow them, ramming the Acura again and again. Bernert estimates that F-150 driver struck their SUV between five and seven times, and hit numerous new trucks in the dealership parking lot. Eventually, they ducked into a nearby neighborhood where they managed to lose the F-150 and called 911. Bernert told KTVA that she believes they were targeted but doesn't know why. "The guy was either some random sick person who didn't care, or somebody who knew us and didn't care there was a kid in the car," she said. Anchorage Police arrived shortly after the couple escaped the F-150 and filed a report about the incident. They are currently investigating. Recent Video:

Ford bringing C-Max Solar Energi Concept to CES

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

Solar energy might not be enough to power a usable electric vehicle on its own, but that doesn't mean it can't lend a helping hand. And that's what Ford has in store for the Consumer Electronics Show opening next week in Las Vegas.
Ford has essentially taken its C-Max Energi plug-in hybrid and fitted it with the latest in solar panel technology developed by SunPower, acting like a magnifying glass to capture as much of the sun's energy as possible. So you get the benefit of an electric vehicle, with the range assurance of a hybrid, without needing to draw from the grid.
Ford estimates that a day of charging in the sunshine will give the C-Max Solar Energi concept the same full charge as the production PHEV, with a total range of 620 miles - 21 of which can be run on electric power alone. Otherwise the vehicle - which remains a concept for the time being - is identical to the existing C-Max Energi. The top-selling model in Ford's growing hybrid and electric vehicle portfolio helps put Ford just behind Toyota among the top seller of hybrids in America. Scope out the images in the gallery above and the video clip and press release below for a closer look.
