Hello and thank you for looking at my auction! I have a 2 documented owner 1962 F-100 Unibody long bed pickup truck. The first owner bought it new and kept it up until first of this year when we bought it and are now the second owners. The truck is in very good shape for a 52 year old vehicle. It has a small amount of work that has been done to it in the past but nothing major. It is solid and runs and drives and stops very good and has been on back roads, city streets and highways since we owned it with no issues at all. It is mostly primered but can be brought back to the patina look with some sanding and elbow grease or some finishing and painted to look very nice.  The truck has some body blemishes but no real rot. The worst visible spots are in the bed. The tailgate opens and shuts exactly the way is should. For you truck and rat rod guys, you know that is hard to come by.

The truck has a 70's model 302 V8 with a heavy duty 4 speed transmission with the granny first gear along with a lower rear end gear. The rear end is a Ford 9 inch which is geared for pulling. Per the original owner, it was installed to pull his trailer. The following pieces were installed over the last couple months.

  • Points and condenser
  • Distributor
  • Coil
  • Plugs and wires
  • Oil and filter change
  • Gear and diff fluids changed
  • New door window seals and tracks
  • New felts and door seals - doors shut very clean and tight
  • New recovered bench seat with center fold down armrest
  • New CD player and speakers
The truck cranks up almost instantly and has not given any issues since the new points and condenser were installed. When first cranked, it has a very small amount of smoke but clears up once you go.  The motor does not make any ticks, rattles or has no real leaks and the exhaust is nearly new and sounds very good and without being to loud.

Here is what else you will get with the truck if the offer is agreed upon.
  • Re-manufactured 70's model 302 heads - 1 set
  • 4 speed truck transmission without granny gear
  • Lighter gear set to give better highway manners
  • Extra headlight buckets
  • Extra Wheel covers
  • Original door panels uncut
  • Few other odds and ends
You can buy this truck and put a little more money and time into it and have a very nice cruiser or rat rod or buy it and drive it like it is.

Thanks again for looking and please email, text or call with any other questions!

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, BMW i8, Ford F-150 win 2015 Green Car Awards in DC [w/video]

Tue, Jan 27 2015

There were three shiny trophies handed out at the Washington Auto Show last week by Green Car Journal, and they went to three different examples of what "green" means in the automotive industry today. The Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel won the award for the 2015 Green SUV of the Year, the BMW i8 was named the 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year and the Ford F-150 took the 2015 Green Car Technology Award honor. There is a case to be made that the aluminum body of the new Ford truck will make a bigger impact in the overall fuel usage in the US than almost any other vehicle, given the numbers of F-150s that Ford sells each year. The B20 biodiesel-capable Jeep gets up to 30 miles per gallon on the highway. And the i8 puts all sorts of new, fuel-saving technologies into an attractive package. Looking over the winners, and the list of finalists you can see in our photo gallery, and you can see that the definition of green is expanding every year. You can watch Green Car Journal editor Ron Cogan hand out the 2015 awards in the video below and we'll for sure be paying attention to what wins next year. 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year, Green SUV of the Year and Green Car Technology Winners Announced WASHINGTON, Jan. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Green Car Journal has named the Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel its 2015 Green SUV of the Year™ and the BMW i8 its 2015 Luxury Green Car of the Year™, with the aluminum-bodied Ford F-150 earning the magazine's 2015 Green Car Technology Award™. Winners were determined by a jury of Green Car Journal editors and automotive experts. The prestigious awards were announced in Washington, D.C. today at a Green Car Awards™ press conference held during the Washington Auto Show's Public Policy Day at the Washington Convention Center. "These are truly commendable vehicles representing the 'best-of-the-best' in so many ways," said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of the Green Car Journal and CarsOfChange.com. "The auto industry's very early focus on small cars and efficiency-for-environment tradeoffs has evolved to now include a more dynamic field of 'greener' models in all vehicle classes. Those wanting greater efficiency or better environmental performance are no longer constrained by limited choices or vehicle types that fall outside their top purchase preferences.

Rowan Atkinson crashes at Goodwood Revival

Sun, 14 Sep 2014

To quote Harry Hogge (played by Robert Duvall) in Days of Thunder, "rubbin, son, is racin'." That can mean some unfortunate damage to high-end racing machinery, which may be repaired easily enough in stock car racing, but when it comes to vintage racing, the stakes can be that much higher. And yet incidents do occur, like at this weekend's Goodwood Revival.
Among the many competitors taking part in the retro racing event in England was none other than Rowan Atkinson, the actor perhaps best known for playing Mr. Bean. Driving a classic Ford Falcon Sprint in the Shelby Cup event, Atkinson (pictured above at the 2012 revival) reportedly crashed head-on into another car on track.
According to reports, the two cars up spun out. The driver in between managed to avoid a pile-up, but Atkinson couldn't steer clear and hit the obstructing vehicle. Fortunately Rowan walked away unscathed (and, we imagine, in a humorous manner), but while we don't know how extensive the damage was to the Falcon, it was enough to take it out of the race.
