I have just recently taken my '29 Ford out of a 3 year storage. It turns over fine but has no spark. At the time I parked it, it was running. I put an additive in the gas tank, removed the battery, and it sat in my heated garage until yesterday. I have owned this truck for 10 years. Before that a friend owned it for 18 years. My friend told me when he bought it that the motor had just been rebuilt and the body work had just been completed and painted. I do not have any documentation on any repairs.
The interior, vinyl top, bed of the truck and the body of the cab is in good shape. The passenger door has a rough spot near the bottom, from an amateur body man. The four fenders are rough, no rust but probably some body filler before it was painted approx. 30 years ago. The hood has some paint chipping where it swivels when opening and a couple of minor dings. The running boards are in good shape. The windshield opens and closes as it should.
When the truck was running it idled fine and didn't smoke. The transmission shifted ok but worked perfectly if you double clutched it when you downshifted.
The truck has always been stored in a heated garage, the tires were new about 5 years ago, they now have about 200 miles on them.
The lights all work, the horn works, the only gauge that doesn't work is the gas gauge.
There is a small leak in the radiator, not sure where, but every once in awhile it would leak.
I have tried to describe this truck as well as possible, a reserve has been set and it is being sold "as is"with no warranty. A $ 500.00 non-refundable deposit is required with-in 24 hours of winning this bid
to be paid thru Paypal. and the remainder to be paid within 7 days. All money will clear the bank before releasing the vehicle.
Shipping of the vehicle is the buyers responsibility, I can help with the loading, and I can provide storage of the vehicle for up to 30 days after the sale.
I am located in N.W. Michigan, if you wish to see the truck or have any questions after looking at the pictures, just e-mail me.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
Ford EcoSport Storm concept swallows a Raptor in Sao Paulo
Sun, 02 Nov 2014Ford rolled into the Sao Paulo Motor Show with some pretty cool crossovers in tow, the awesomest of all being the EcoSport Storm concept shown above, which draws its inspiration directly from the F-150 SVT Raptor. It packs a lower grille clearly derived from the now-famous muscle truck, as well as a Blue Storm paint job, black and silver trim, special graphics, lower body cladding and 215/75 R15 off-road tires. Don't go holding your breath for a supercharged V8, though; made locally in Brazil, India and Thailand, the tiny EcoSport is typically powered by a three- or four-cylinder engine.
The Storm isn't the only specially prepared Ecosport on show, however, joined as it is by another pair called Beauty and the Beast. Beauty is decked out in matte copper with a black roof, LED fog lamps, 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires and an interior complete with four individual bucket seats, leather upholstery and a full multimedia suite. The Beast, meanwhile, takes a sportier approach with a white pearl finish, blue and orange trim and three-bar grille. It also wears 18-inch wheels and LED fog lamps, but its interior swaps out its rear seats for a bike rack.
Joining the EcoSport show cars was an Edge crossover equipped with all the latest technologies and done up in bright red with three-bar grille, bulging hood, and an interior featuring 10-inch touchscreens and leather upholstery. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school
Thu, 01 Aug 2013The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.
