I purchased this rust-free, unmolested, original paint Meadowlark Yellow fastback, 302 cu. in. 210HP, C4 automatic
with console and bucket seats in 2010 along with the original owner's paperwork indicating it spent most of its
life in the Los Angeles, California area. The original paint was worn thin with primer beginning to show and the
trim needing to be refurbished. The car was completely stripped of all trim including the bumpers and re-chromed,
re-anodized, polished, or replaced. Minor body work was completed (none involving rust) and then painted in the
original color. I have all receipts and have each item listed line by line indicating total cost of $30,000
including the original purchase price. I have over 400 photos documenting the refurbishment and upgrading process.
NADA price report (2/20/16) indicates $33,000 High Retail. This price has been adjusted for air conditioning which
is the only adder included in the NADA pricing. Note the original A/C components have been changed to 134a from the
firewall forward including a new condenser and more efficient Sanden compressor. Added 3 relays (low, medium, &
high) to the blower motor which removes the electrical load from the original switch. The interior only required
replacement of the foam and upholstery on the driver's bucket seat and carpet. A new headliner had been installed
when I purchased the auto. I like the "porthole" dash presentation, but the speedometer is difficult to read, even
in daylight, I assume this is why Ford went to an argent background color in 1969. Rather than change the
background I installed a dimmer equipped strip of LED lights around the speedometer that are turned ON with the
ignition switch (operates day or night).. Quick list of upgrades: Self-winding shoulder seat belts. Does away with
the clumsy two buckle first year Ford shoulder belts. Fuse box added on radiator support.. Relays added for low and
high beam halogen headlights. Relay added to serve Sanden A/C compressor clutch. #8 gauge wire from new fuse box
location to (3) relays serving the A/C heater blower. Fire extinguisher mounted in trunk (required at most auto
shows). Automatic radio antenna. Operates up/down when radio is turned on/off. Power steering fluid cooler added in
return line to pump. Stainless steel radiator overflow tank. Grant wood steering wheel. Original, in good
condition, is also included. Ford Duraspark II electronic ignition. Voltmeter installed in clock location. Dual
exhaust. Exits in original locations behind rear wheels. Automatic transmission overhauled by local shop. The
flawless condition, upgrades, and recent addition of new rear brakes easily qualify this vehicle for the "High
Retail" NADA value.

Watch how Ford torture-tested the 2015 F-150

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

The Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the United States for the past 37 years, and the best-selling vehicle outright for the past 32. That's quite a legacy, and thus, it's no surprise that Ford worked super-duper-extra hard on creating the all-new, aluminum-bodied 2015 F-150 that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
During an event at the company's headquarters in Dearborn, MI this week, we were able to see all of the ways that Ford endurance tests, not just the new F-150, but all of its vehicles. From examining things like light exposure to interior materials and paint finishes, to making sure that corrosion absolutely does not happen when steel components come in contact with aluminum panels in the new truck. The goal: ensure that the new F-150 is nothing short of "Built Ford Tough."
But that's only a small part of the story. Of course, the new F-150 has to be able to withstand whatever a pickup buyer might throw at it - and truck buyers arguably demand the most from their vehicles. So in an effort to convey just what the new F-150 had to go through before being given the final go-ahead, Ford has released a series of videos, showing how its new halo truck was indeed torture tested.

Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?

Thu, 15 Nov 2012

Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
