1966 Ford F-100 Short Bed with 390 cubic V8 the original manual floor shift. I have a clear title in my name. This is a running, driving, Short Bed Ford Pickup that runs good, shifts smoothly, and stops good. The engine sounds good and has good oil pressure. Please look closely at all of the photos. I have super-sized the photos to assist in evaluating my truck's condition. I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting. If you have any questions, please give me a call. My home phone, which is still attached to my kitchen wall, is (801) 745-0599. The reserve is substantially less than the truck's value. I'm restoring a 1959 Thunderbird and I need the funds for this project. The original owner told me that the 390V8 engine was the original engine in the truck. The VIN number indicates that it was a V8, but doesn't specify if it was originally a 390. From my research, I found that in late 1966 Ford started using 390 V8s in these trucks, but I'm not sure if the engine is "number matching." In either case, it is a good running 390 that sounds and runs good. There are after-market gauges that work properly attached to the dash under the radio. It has an aftermarket JVC stereo with all of the paper work in the glove box. It has almost new tires. It comes with a spare chrome front bumper, a spare passenger's side fender, extra headlight bezels, and a period correct automatic transmission. Please look at the photos of the spare parts. Everything shown in the photos comes with the truck.

It is a good, 48 year old, truck, but it does have some issues. With this in mind, I will list in detail the negative aspects of my truck. 1. There is rust in the floors. The body and frame are in good shape, but the floors need work. I have been driving it as it is, but I would recommend correcting the floors. 2. There is a rust spot on the front of the hood. Again, please look closely at the photos. 3. The interior is in useable condition, but needs a good cleaning. Under the current seat covers are the original seat covers that are in useable condition. The headliner is in place, but also needs a good cleaning. 3. There are a couple of small dents in the front passenger's side fender. I have collected spare parts for the truck and there is a solid passenger's side fender that comes with it.

A $500.00 PayPal deposit is required within 24 hours of the auction closing. If you don't have a PayPal account, please give me a call to work out arrangements. If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks in your Ebay feedback score please email me or give me a call. My phone number is listed above. I want this to be a good, straightforward, auction. Please check my ebay feedback. I highly value by reputation on Ebay and, as I mentioned, I want the new owner to be satisfied with my truck.

In response to a question from an Ebay member, Yes, this truck can be driven anywhere. It has a new battery, new, professionally installed, dual exhaust pipes and mufflers, as well as almost new tires.

America was the unexpected theme at the 2017 Detroit Auto Show thanks to Trump

Wed, Jan 11 2017

President-elect Donald Trump was not in attendance at this year's Detroit Auto Show, but it sure seemed like he was the target audience for many of the press conferences and announcements surrounding the event. Several manufacturers chose to play up existing and future commitments to the US in general and American jobs specifically in their presentations to the press, and we're pretty sure that has everything to do with Trump's recent targeting of automakers on Twitter. To us, it seemed automakers were going on the offensive to try and preempt any future tweet-shaming for investing in auto manufacturing anywhere but the US. The pro-America sentiment started the week prior to the auto show, with Ford announcing that it would build several future electrified vehicles at its Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan and also cancel a $1.6 billion factory planned for Mexico. Ford announced the two items on the same day, but the reality is that they likely have no relation to each other; the Mexican plant is being skipped because the company doesn't need the extra capacity to build the Ford Focus right now. Trump was still happy to share the news on Twitter. Then, on Sunday, FCA announced it would invest $1 billion in manufacturing plants in Ohio and Michigan to produce the new Jeep Wagoneer, Grand Wagoneer, and Wrangler-based pickup. It's not as though those potential new jobs were on their way out of the US, necessarily, but FCA took the opportunity to mention that plant upgrades at the Warren Truck Plant would allow the company to build Ram heavy duty trucks, which are currently assembled in Mexico, there. CEO Sergio Marchionne confirmed that Trump and his proposed tariffs had nothing to do with the decision. We certainly believe that, but we also have to believe that the timing of the release, positive outcome for America, and zero gain for Mexico were all orchestrated. Again, Trump sent out a victory tweet as if this had been his doing. Ford then used its press conference at the show on Monday to reiterate the plans for Flat Rock and also confirm that the Ford Bronco and Ranger nameplates will be returning to the US market, and that both will be built at a plant in Michigan. Announcements of manufacturing locations are usually aimed at the UAW, which certainly has a stake in these things, but again this one was broadcast to the auto show crowd in general.

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR

Fri, Jun 5 2015

As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost to hit 45 mpg for $16,445*

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

When Ford first announced its plan to put the 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the 2014 Fiesta, it promised hybrid-like fuel economy without a hybrid-like premium. We're still waiting for official specs on this engine, but thanks to the EPA's fueleconomy.gov website and Ford's retail site, we now know what customers can expect in terms of both fuel economy and price.
All along, Ford has said that it expects the 1.0-liter EcoBoost to get more than 40 miles per gallon on the highway, and now the EPA backs this up with official ratings of 32 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway. These numbers are an increase of two mpg city and four mpg hwy compared to the current fuel-sipping Fiesta (the 1.6 SFE), and it also beats other three-cylinder cars for highway mileage like the 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage (44 mpg highway) and 2014 Smart Fortwo (38 mpg highway); the Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost is lower than both three-pot rivals, though, in city fuel economy with the Mitsubishi getting 37 mpg city and the Smart rated at 34 mpg city. This model handily beats high-volume small cars like the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris and Chevy Spark in both city and highway numbers.
As for pricing, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered on both the sedan and hatchback as a $995 option called the SE Manual EcoBoost package, which is aptly named since it's only offered on SE trim-level Fiestas equipped with a manual transmission. Along with the engine, the package also comes with 15-inch steel wheels, regenerative brakes and a decklid spoiler on the sedan. This means the four-door Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost will start at $16,445*, or $17,045* for the hatchback (*not including $795 for destination).
