1964 Ford F100 All Original on 2040-cars
Eagle, Idaho, United States
1964 Ford F100 very original truck. The truck has a great patina and is super straight for being 50 years old. This truck was purchased in 1970 by the second owner and has been in the family ever since. THE GOOD: This truck is probably the straightest most original truck I have ever seen. There is no rust to speak of aside from the small amount in the bed. Tires have some age on them but are still good, newer battery replaced last year. Great running engine and all the mechanicals operate fine. Doors work like new. I have all interior parts as well as a box of extra parts that includes new brake shoes, extra rebuildable holly single barrel carb, original air cleaner, and other misc parts. The truck doesn't leak or burn any oil, there may be a couple drops after letting it sit for a month or more but nothing substantial. The 223 inline six just purrs and trans shifts fine through all gears. The truck runs and drives fine but takes some getting used to not having power brakes or power steering. I have a clean clear title for it. THE NOT SO GOOD: The truck is 50 years old and showing some age. Very straight body aside from the few dents found around the truck. It isn't like a modern car, it drives like a 50 year old truck. The truck is missing inside door handles, the passenger side window has come off its track (simple fix just needs to be put back on). There is a small crack in the windshield (probably 6-8 inches long) but doesn't affect anything. Interior is in what I would call usable condition. The seat cover has come off so it has been replaced with a blanket. Otherwise it isn't in bad condition. Dash is alright and floor has been coated to protect it. Buyer is responsible for pickup but I will help load or make arrangements. If you have any questions you are welcome to give me a call at (208)-447-8600 or contact through ebay. |

Consumer Reports says Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevy are big winners in brand perception survey
Wed, 05 Feb 2014According to Consumer Reports, the automotive brands that stand out in the minds of car buyers are, in order: Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevrolet. This news comes after the magazine polled its readers, asking them to take into account vehicle quality, safety, performance, value, fuel economy, design/style, and technology/innovation - which are the factors that car shoppers are most influenced by.
It's important to note that this award is only about perception. In other words, it's perceived quality, not actual quality. "Often, perception can be a trailing indicator, reflecting years of good or bad performance in a category, and it can also be influenced by headlines in the media," said Jeff Bartlett, Consumer Reports deputy automotive editor.
The brand that made the biggest jump in perception amongst Consumer Reports readers is Tesla, which posted an impressive 47-point gain to finish in fifth place. Subaru is also notable for finishing in the top 10, despite being one of the smaller manufacturers doing business in the US. Scroll down below for all the details from Consumer Reports, if you're so inclined.
George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]
Sun, 20 Jan 2013Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
Cadillac ELR, Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas win Eyes on Design awards
Fri, 18 Jan 2013This year's annual Eyes on Design awards were presented at the end of press days for the Detroit Auto Show on Tuesday. Given out for the best production and concept car designs that debuted at the show, and voted on by an esteemed panel of actual car designers, this year's award for best production vehicle design went to the 2014 Cadillac ELR. The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, which was the show favorite among Autoblog editors, apparently did not impress the Eyes on Design judges enough with its all-new vent-festooned design.
The award for best concept design was actually split as a tie among the Nissan Resonance and Ford Atlas concepts. Last year's winners were the 2013 Ford Fusion and the Lexus LF-LC concept.
The Eyes on Design organization also presented a new honor this year called the Catalyst Award to Bob Lutz, former Vice Chairman of General Motors. Lutz is reported to have given a defense of design in his acceptance speech, arguing that advancements in quality across the industry as a whole have made good design a key differentiator for buyers.
