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 Mustang revs it up at Cars & Coffee
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Just because the new 2015 Ford Mustang has officially been released, you didn't think that would be the end of the matter - did you? Of course not. There'll still be plenty of rumors, reports and video footage to bring you. Like this, the first non-official footage of the new pony car in the wild.
Shot by YouTube user SotA1080 and dug up by our friends at CarBuzz, this clip shows the new Mustang posing for photos (alongside other Mustangs) and starting up its engine at the most recent gathering of Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA. And this being the GT model, it's not packing the V6 or the turbo four, but the red-blooded 5.0-liter V8 that tells us and enthusiasts worldwide that the new Mustang has not lost its way. Scroll on down to watch the footage for yourself.
2015 Ford F-150 brings big aluminum to the Rust Belt [w/video]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014Just when you thought you'd figured the fullsize truck market out, Ford goes and throws us a massive curve ball with the 2015 F-150. The big headline news aren't tow or payload ratings, though we're sure those figures will be fully competitive if not class leading, they haven't yet been announced. Instead, the big headline news Ford is highlighting are the truck's new aluminum-intensive structure and 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
And with good reason - all that aluminum means that Ford was able to cut a massive 700 pounds from the truck's curb weight. That is going to cause all sorts of great things to happen to the 2015 F-150's driving dynamics, performance and fuel efficiency, not to mention its ability to haul heavy loads. For those customers worried about the strength of aluminum versus the more conventional steel, Ford is quick to point out that many military vehicles, such as the HMMWV and Bradley Fighting Vehicle, use a very similar sort of aluminum alloy in their construction.
It's also worth mentioning that the backbone, a fully boxed ladder frame, is hewn from high-strength steel. Ford says "2015 Ford F-150 is the strongest and most durable F-150 ever," for what it's worth, claiming that "torture tested" in labs and in the real world for more than 10 million miles. What's more, the truck, in disguised form, completed all 883 miles of the Baja 1000.
Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car
Mon, 24 Mar 2014There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.
