Putting Mr. Ugly up on the auction block. Out of the Sacramento area, discovered in the middle of a field. It has some rust issues sad to say. Over the left headlamp on the hood, and over the left rear tail light area are the worst two spots. Roofline not bad surprisingly, passenger door skin is loose from the bottom of the door. Has some dents and different layers of paint as seen. Good news is that the 223 six cylinder motor still running strong. Has a new fuel CA pump since we have that gas that can eat up the older rubber. Used glass bowl for the carburetor which isn`t quite idling right, have a rebuild kit for it. One wire Chevy alternator installed and working, also changed it to spin on oil filter. All new brake shoes and wheel cylinders and yes the drums were properly turned. New master cylinder for both the brakes and clutch and new slave cylinder as well.
Interior is dirty and rusty looking was going to power wash it and sand blast where needed. Driver stock seat all messed up, jump seat must of since it is no longer around. Tires all good, if you see something missing it will be in the back of the truck such as the side hood emblems for example. Bumper brackets or frame horns as they are called were for some reason cut off and rewelded at an angle. Bumpers are the one thing I do not have for this truck. Steering box is sloppy, meaning it handles like a drunk cow going down the road the faster you go. Will include a rebuildable one that I can tell you where to send it for a cost of only 300 bucks. And there is a person in the San Diego also offering rebuilt steering boxes.
My plan was to just patch it up and use it like a work that they were. I have the title but it has been out of the system for so long it may have to be mechanically inspected. Brakes, lights and glass which reminds me there is a crack in the windshield on passenger side. I also have 2 others to feed as well. Will answer any questions, have been a panel truck owner on and off for 30 years. There is a great Ford F-100 club for 1957 to 1960 models only with members all over the world on facebook definitely worth checking out. Thanks all.

2015 Ford F-150 to get 2.7-liter EcoBoost?
Mon, 30 Dec 2013As we prepare for the arrival of the all-new, next-generation Ford F-150, rumors about the new truck are picking up steam. Naturally, many of said rumors aren't just related to the way the truck will look (it's expected to take design cues from the Atlas concept shown above), they're tied to what's going to motivate the Blue Oval mainstay, with Ford's EcoBoost range likely to play an increasingly key role. While we're still expecting the current 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 to retain its position as a premium alternative to Ford's naturally aspirated V6 and V8, a Canadian automotive news site is proposing that the Dearborn automaker is also preparing a new, more fuel-efficient downsized EcoBoost option.
Autos.ca is reporting that a new, 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 could find its way into the lighter, aluminum-intensive truck. The new engine supposedly makes use of asymmetrical turbos to generate 320 horsepower and 370 pound-feet of torque - substantially more impressive numbers than the current 3.7-liter base engine's 302 ponies and 278 lb-ft - while offering improved fuel economy and emissions. The new 2.7 EcoBoost (internally dubbed "Nano") isn't expected to supplant the naturally aspirated V6 as the F-150's base engine, it's expected to slot in above directly it.
Naturally, we're prescribing more than a few grains of salt to go with these rumors, at least until Ford debuts the next F-150 at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, a reveal we'll be covering in a mere two weeks.
Ford cleans up painting process with cameras
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.
Ford celebrates 1 millionth Mustang built at Flat Rock
Thu, 18 Apr 2013Yesterday, the Ford Mustang turned 49 years old, and Ford didn't miss the opportunity to celebrate the one millionth version of the Mustang rolling off the assembly line at the Flat Rock Assembly plant. Production of the Mustang at Flat Rock coincided with the fifth-generation design launching in 2004, and the one millionth car was the car shown above, a 2014 GT convertible painted in Ruby Red.
In total, Ford has sold more than 8.5 million Mustangs since the original car went on sale, but some of the key milestones over the car's nine years at Flat Rock include the Shelby GT-H, Bullitt, Boss 302 and, of course, the 662-horsepower Shelby GT500. Scroll down for a press release celebrating Flat Rock's milestone Mustang.
