Eagar, Arizona, United States
Hello Folks. We have today for auction a Really nice " Oldie But Goodie" A 1963 Short bed F-100 pickem up truck. It was made in San Jose ,CAL. in Aug.1962 with a 292-2V engine and automatic trans But somewhere along the way it got a 4 speed tranny swap installed. It's in really nice shape for an old Ford. These stepside shorties are very hard to find in this good of a condition. Only a couple small rust spots in the normal areas. We just had a brand new tinted high dollar windshield professionally installed and rubber today . There was no rust around the area under the old rubber. The engine runs but needs help. I drove it around the day after I got it and parked it. The tires will hold air but go flat in about 2 weeks . Somebody did a lot of body/paint on the box AND there is no tail gate but we know where one is at the local wrecking yard for about 50 bucks. Theres been new electric wipers installed and new gauges put in the dash. I believe its a 9 inch rear end Brake work great/ trans shift great / clutch is great .The bad is the motor needs either a new set of head gaskets /or rebuilt. It does start and run but it needs somebody who knows about solid lifter camshaft engines and adjustable rockers. Oh ,I believe this motor has a forged steel crankshaft. And Another thing when I drove it it steered fine and didn't pull or anything. Check out all the pictures we took .............. Happy bidding !!!!!!!! hash tag /hot rod 428 cobra jet /427 FE big block side oiler./ 390 hp 352 hp. Mustang /Ford Coup /Play toy... |

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California
Fri, 01 Mar 2013A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed
Tue, 18 Nov 2014Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.
Ford's Mulally now said to be in lead for Microsoft CEO job
Sun, 29 Sep 2013There have been rumors that Ford CEO Alan Mulally could assume the top job over at Microsoft, whose CEO, Steve Ballmer, will retire within the year. Mulally hasn't come out and said that he's considering moving to Microsoft after (or before) his contract with Ford through 2014 ends, but sources in the know say he's the front-runner to become the tech giant's CEO and has opened up to the idea more in recent weeks, AllThingsD reports.
Mulally is no stranger to Washington, where Microsoft is located, having worked in the state for Seattle-based Boeing Commercial Airplanes as CEO years ago. He also recently was an adviser to Ballmer in an effort to realign the company's management structure to help it become more competitive in a fast-changing computer hardware and software market. And when Ford developed its Sync digital interface, it tapped Microsoft to provide the operating system, Microsoft Auto. Perhaps the least crucial connection - but nonetheless an important one - is that Mulally still owns a house in the Seattle area, and it's been said he wants to return there, according to AllThingsD.
A main challenge Microsoft's next CEO will face is how to manage the company's numerous, fractured operations and, eventually, streamline them. But even on this front, Mulally has experience; after all, it was he who ushered in an era of global Ford vehicles, after the automaker had become complacent developing and selling vehicles by region leading up to the economic recession of 2008-2009.
