1976 Ford F750 Crew Cab Oleynik Enclosed Race Car Transporter- Vintage Car Safe on 2040-cars
Petaluma, California, United States
|
I purchased this truck about three years ago from a well regarded PNW vintage racer who put one race car inside and another on a trailer and towed everything to the track. When I bought the truck it was in storage in southern California. A friend flew down to pick it up, loaded in a Buick Skylark in LA and drove it to San Francisco without incident. I had plans to preserve the vintage character but upgrade to diesel power. That project never was initiated. Instead the truck has served as a rolling garage and tow truck for my street Alfa Romeos. The paint appears to be original, but the gloss is long gone. All the body panels appear original condition. No evidence of collision damage/repair. The interior is in very good condition. No rips or tears in the vinyl seats, front or rear. Carpet is fine. Headliner should be replace as some water intrusion has warped the backing board. The box is 20' x 8' x 8'. Tee side compartments include a gas generator for trackside repairs. Rear roll-up door is wood, and is starting to rot on the bottom panel (seen only from inside) and should be replaced. The interior paneling is in good condition. The solid oak floor is in excellent condition. Electric winch is recessed into the floor. Fiberglass roof fairing. Good tIres including a spare front tire/wheel. The engine is a V8, 5sp manual, 2sp differential. Hydraulic brakes. LR brake cylinder leaks. Pinion seal leaks. Steering gear box has a lot of play in it. This truck has been largely off the road for a few years and requires some attention (wheel cylinder, steering gear box) to be ready for anything more than a cross town haul, mostly because of the wheel cylinder. Good oil pressure. Gauges work, lights work, turn signals work. To travel any considerable distance the truck should be transported on a flat bed trailer to your location. The wheel cylinder can be repaired locally for a couple hours labor at a reputable big rig shop. I can arrange the repairs for the buyer prior to pick up.
NO RESERVE! THIS TRUCK WILL SELL TO THE BEST BID This truck is outdoors in a secured location and does not have to be moved immediately. If you purchase the truck it can stay until summer, rent-free. The truck is located in Sonoma County, 40 minutes north of San Francisco, CA. |

2015 Ford Mustang dealer order guide surfaces
Tue, 13 May 2014Details about the all-new, 2015 Ford Mustang continue to leak out. In fact, at this point, it's more of a stream than a drip. Its option prices are already available, and now the full ordering guide is on the web for all of the trims thanks to the Mustang 6G forum. Ford is rapidly running out of secrets to keep about its new sports coupe.
The 21-page guide can be perused in the gallery below and contains all of the standard features, colors, options codes, descriptions. Generally everything you might want to know about the 'Stang is there, other than its price or power. It even shows off the available wheel designs.
The guide finally gives away the contents of the Performance Package for the EcoBoost and GT trims. The EcoBoost's package includes: A larger rear sway bar, new chassis tuning, larger brake rotors, 19-inch black wheels, retuned driver assistance systems, an aluminum dash panel, added gauge pack, 3.55 limited slip rear differential, larger radiator, heavy-duty front springs and spoiler delete. When the options pricing leaked, it indicated the package would cost $1,995. If that is the case, it seems like quite a deal.
Performance CNG wants to crowdfund natural gas-powered Ford Mustang
Fri, May 16 2014Soliciting investments to develop a street-legal compressed natural gas (CNG) powered Ford Mustang that can deliver 470 horsepower certainly wouldn't make sense on a site called Indiestopstop. Nope, Indiegogo is the more-appropriately-named site that one Michigan entrepreneur is using to try and crowdfund his CNG 'Stang. He's looking to raise $55,000. Michigan's Daryl Patrishkoff and his company Performance CNG LLC showed off their converted 2003 Mustang last year at the Woodward Dream Cruise in Royal Oak, MI in an effort to get some exposure for the car, which can run on both gas and CNG. The company and its three-man team is looking to further develop the project in the name of a fueling source that is 40 percent cheaper than gasoline, throws off as much as 30 percent fewer tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions and makes the country less dependent on foreign oil. Performance CNG estimates that just 120,000 of the world's 15 million CNG-powered vehicles are in the US and is calling for more. As for the $55 grand, Patrishkoff estimates that more than half of that amount would be committed to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) testing of emissions, fuel economy and horsepower. The problem? As of right now, only $150 has been raised. Check out Performance CNG's press release below and see the fundraising effort on Indiegogo here. Eco-Friendly Muscle Car? CNG vehicles save money, emit less pollution and creates jobs from American-mined fuel SHELBY TOWNSHIP, Mich., May 5, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Daryl Patrishkoff of Shelby Township, MI, has a vision for the American automotive industry. He firmly believes that our fuel of choice should be Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), not gasoline. Until the full CNG infrastructure is in place a Bi-Fuel vehicle, fueled by either CNG or gasoline upon the drivers command, is the bridge vehicle that can lead this transition. Patrishkoff heads up a (3) man technical team developing this technology. The advantages are: 40 percent savings in fuel costs at the pump 25-30 percent reduction in harmful emissions 100 percent US provided natural gas Meaningful employment for the US economy The most important benefit, however, is that a CNG-powered vehicle runs on fuel that can be mined in America, eliminating the need for foreign oil. "After decades of political rhetoric, these types of vehicles can truly lead the US to energy independence," he said.
Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang appears at EAA Oshkosh
Sat, 26 Jul 2014Ford is back at the Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture air show in Oshkosh, WI, on July 31 auctioning off its seventh Mustang for charity, and this is one seriously mean looking 2015 'Stang. All of the money from the sale goes to give free introductory flights to young people to get them interested in aviation.
We recently saw this latest EAA Mustang as a sketch. However, it looks a whole lot more menacing in person. Dubbed the Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang, it takes liberal inspiration from Lockheed Martin's latest fighter jet, and the customization makes the pony car look ready for a role in Top Gun.
On the outside, the special Mustang wears titanium-color paint that's offset by a black and yellow stripe running from hood to rear. Out back things get really wild with a mix of bright yellow and black that flows diagonally all the way to the rear spoiler. The design is based on the livery of early production F-35s. If the rousing color scheme isn't enough to get you interested, the car also gets a carbon fiber front splitter and rear diffuser, lowered suspension and a set of custom 21-inch wheels with yellow brake calipers.
