Marine, Illinois, United States

Up for sale is my 1964 Ford F100 Short Bed Pick-Up. It has a 1985 ford 302 V8 with a matching 1985 Ford C-5 automatic transmission. It shifts smooth, runs nice and has a list of new parts. I have replaced the distributor cap and rotor, valve covers, valve cover gaskets, transmission pan gaskets, transmission fluid, engine oil, oil filter, spark plugs and wires, it has newer tires with about 75-80% tread left, a new horn, electronic fuel pump, radiator cap, gas cap, battery, battery terminals, and I had a power rack and pinion steering kit from No-Limit Engineering installed, which before labor cost right around $900, and I also had power brakes put on it. The brakes are power drum brakes. I also had it painted when I bought it, which was about 6 or 7 years ago. The paint is not the greatest. There is some paint damage around the gas cap, which you can see in the pictures, the day after I had it painted gas leaked out and it ate through the paint because I parked the truck on a hill after I filled the truck up with gas. It happened 6 years ago, it hasn't gotten worse over time, I replaced the gas cap and the leak was no more. The rubber ring on the inside of the cap was dry rotted.

The paint is the worst thing about the truck. I haven't gotten it repainted because I spent the money to get it painted and I didn't see any reason to go ahead and fork out the money to get it repainted again because of the stupid gas cap. Anyway, I have quite a bit of time and money into my truck and if it sells it sells. I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells locally and if you wish to contact me and you are in the local area and have something you think I might want to trade from the 50's or 60s, give me a ring. 660-909-2907

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford readying Ranger-based Everest SUV?

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Way back in August, we showed you a Ford concept for the Australian market called the Everest. Now, we can show you that work on the new Ranger-based SUV is well under way.
At this stage, it's still quite clearly a mule (note the misalignment of the front and rear doors), wearing the Ranger's front end and the rump of Ford's overseas Territory crossover. The wheelbase is shorter than a Ranger, according to our spy photographers, which strikes us as somewhat odd for a more passenger-oriented vehicle. Disc brakes should be fitted at all four corners, while the new SUV, which will almost certainly wear the Everest name, should sport a new rear suspension.
In terms of looks, we're expecting the Everest Concept to inform the appearance of the production model. Naturally, there will also be some interior tweaks, particularly around the dashboard, which is covered in these photos.
