This is a really cool unmodified f100 short bed. It is the first year of this body style. Inline six cylinder with three on the tree. The previous owner had told me he had just rebuilt the engine before he put it in storage and judging by how good it runs I would have to tend to agree. It doesn't have the original carburetor but everything else is original under the hood. The paint was just recently redone in this really cool metallic blue that looks kinda grey at different angles. it is not perfect as it has little scratches and bumps, but you cant see until you get closer to inspect. The only rust spot we found was under the hood by the driver side hood hinge. it was cut out and a piece of sheet metal was welded in. Suspension has been gone thru and drives straight with no play in the steering wheel. the interior is AWESOME. It was upholstered with REAL ostrich leather and a suede mule. Even the door arm rests are ostrich. The truck was a project that I'm not currently able to finish. I still have to go thru the electrical. I haven't found the original turn signal lever that is missing. Also, the fans were working but stopped as did the dash light. The head lights and tail lights work great but i still need to line them up. If I didn't need the space and money I would definitely finish the last few things it need to be perfect. It has so much potential that would make it awesome. It is definitely not a museum show piece, but still looks amazing! How much fun would you have in this gas sipping work truck that could be used just for a stroll down main street on Sundays. Please call me with questions. I strongly urge you to come see it for yourself or send an ebay inspector. Call, Text, or Email Ivan 575-650-2078. the truck is in Las Cruces, NM and shipping is up to the buyer but i can work closely with you and the shippers. A NON refundable 500.00 deposit is due after 48 hours of the end of the auction. Car is sold as is where it is with no guarantees. Please call me and i can answer any question as truthfully and accurate as possible

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.

Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]

Sun, 15 Jun 2014

It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.

Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.
