Stuff i know. 

I bought this as a project with the intention of really pulling it apart for a family project and to allow me to take the family to shows and handle the normal suburbia truck type stuff. I have decided to go a different direction, the wife wants a wagon. 

It's a 1968 Ford F350 Crew Cab Long bed. Really clean truck has extra heavy duty load helper suspension in back. Previously had a monster in bed and over the cab camper that the previous owner used while prospecting a few weeks a year. the milage shows as 11XXX its probably not correct but the previous owner had several vehicles and only used this one for camping/prospecting so its possible. 

Previous owner removed camper before sale. Its not available or part of this sale. 

He added two extra saddle mount tanks in addition to the stock behind the seat tank so he could really get deep back country. I have no idea what the total capacity is. they can be switched manually by a small switch on the floor between the drivers seat and the door. This truck is a California truck, floors and frame are solid with surface rust only it has had a cheapo repaint to the stock white sometime in its past and some areas are thinning and a few bubbles are present.  Only one serious dent on drivers side bed and a few in the grill tailgate is in the bed in these pictures it is the original matching tailgate. The described dent will be shown in pics. The truck has the original 360 Fe and 4 speed the current motor is Frozen solid. If this auction doesn't meet the reserve I will basically pull it apart repaint and go nuts with the LMC catalog after I rebuild the 360 

Known issues
The 360 is frozen truck is not running. Will need engine rebuilt or replaced. the 360 is an Fe style motor so 352/360/390/428 will all drop right in and LMC sells the kits to allow a 460 or 289/351 swaps as well. 

there is one sizable dent see pics 

The only things I can see that are missing is the radio, and a few of the interior window handles knobs are missing the crank is there but the knob part is missing on a couple of the doors. Also the previous owner for some reason put the newer style chrome wheels on the front only.  I am currently hunting down a set of original steel wheels as I prefer them. if I can find a set of original wheels before auction ends Iw ill include them. The chrome is showing some pitting 

I have done my best to describe the item to the best of my ability I am not a professional if you have any questions please ask if you would like to inspect the vehicle please contact me to make arrangements I reserve the right to stop the auction if the vehicle sells locally first. The truck is free and clear in my name ready to go. 

No warranty 
No shipping 
Vehicle will not leave until funds are cleared.

#### ADDED INFO###


I HAVE ADDED PICS OF THE CAB MOUNTS AND THE FLOORS AND THE DRIP RAILS DUE TO A LOT OF EMAILS ASKING FOR THE INFO. 

I HAVE ALSO PAID THIS TRUCK CURRENT IN CA DMV THERE IS NO BACK FEES OR WAITING ON THE TITLE ITS ALL READY TO GO. UNFORTUNATELY THERE WERE SOME BACK FEES DUE TO PREV OWNER NEVER FILING NON OPP. I AM SURE YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT CA/DMV IS LIKE WHEN YOU DONT FOLLOW THIER RULES THAT IS WHY I HAVE A RESERVE SET. 

AS I MENTIONED IN THE ADD I PICKED THIS TRUCK UP JUST A WEEK OR SO AGO WITH THE INTENTION OF BUILDING A FAMILY CRUISER THATS WHY IT LOOKS SO DIRTY AND THERE IS STILL MOSS IN THE DRIP RAILS IN TAKING THESE PICS I FOUND THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND PBACK ARE NEAR PERFECT BUT THE PASSANGER SIDE DRIP RAIL HAS SOME DISCOLORATION. YOU CAN SEE THIS IN THE PICS IT LOOKS LIKE THE MOSS GREW UNDER THE PAINT. ALSO THE PREV OWNER HAD A HUGE CAMPER THAT THE SLEEPER PORTION WENT ALL THE WAY OVER THE CAB AND THEN IT WAS PARKED UP NEXT TO HIS HOUSE SO I AM THINKING THE MOSS JUST GREW BETTER IN THAT SHADE. ON TAPPING AND LOOKING I FOUND NO RUST THROUGH AND ON THE INSIDE ROOF SHOWS NO DISCOLORATION INSIDE. 


 WE WHERE AT A SHOW AND THE WIFE SAW A WAGON SHE HAS TO HAVE SO I AM SELLING THIS FOR THAT. ITS REALLY THE CLEANEST CREW I HAVE EVER HAD I JUST DONT HAVE THE ROOM FOR A WAGON AND THIS TO OR ID JUST KEEP IT.

Ford cuts F-150 fuel use through CNG-capable fleet sales, EcoBoost

Tue, May 13 2014

The possibility of $1-a-gallon fuel would make a lot of US governmental entities sit up and take notice. The state of Oklahoma and the city of Dallas are making that happen. Those two entities are buying up a bunch of Ford F-150 pickups retrofitted to run on compressed natural gas (CNG), all in the name of cost savings and emissions reduction. Oklahoma is buying 256 of the F-150s, while Dallas is buying another 65. The trucks, which cost between $6,000 and $9,500 to retrofit (on top of the original price), can run on either CNG or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). And while that's a substantial hit, conversion costs are typically paid back in three years thanks to lower refueling costs. CNG prices are as low as $1.07 a gallon in parts of Oklahoma. How much lower? The national average price for CNG is about a buck and a half less than the $3.67 average per-gallon cost of gasoline. And CNG prices are as low as $1.07 a gallon in parts of Oklahoma, where CNG is plentiful. CNG also cuts tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions by about 20 percent compared with gasoline, while the retrofitted trucks can go as far as 450 miles from their CNG tanks in addition to the 300-mile range from their conventional tanks. That's useful in a bit state like Texas. This week, the US Energy Department trumpeted a $5.9-billion loan program that Ford accessed to upgrade its factories for production of its EcoBoost engines, noting that Ford has sold a half-million F-150 trucks with EcoBoost engines. Those trucks have collectively cut fuel use by almost 57 million gallons of gas during the past three-plus years. Check out Ford's press release on the F-150 purchases below and the Energy Department's statement about its loan program here. OKLAHOMA, DALLAS ORDER 300-PLUS CNG-CAPABLE FORD F-150 PICKUPS AS DEMAND GROWS FOR ALTERNATIVE FUEL OPTION The state of Oklahoma and its agencies to buy 256 Ford F-150 trucks prepped to run on compressed natural gas; Dallas orders 65 for its fleet 2014 F-150 available with gaseous-fuel prep option on 3.7-liter V6 engine; can run on CNG or liquefied petroleum gas (also called propane autogas) By summer, Ford will offer eight vehicles that can run on clean-burning, affordable CNG; the company is on track to sell more than 15,000 such vehicles in 2014 The state of Oklahoma, its agencies and the city of Dallas have ordered a total of 321 Ford F-150 pickups that can run on compressed natural gas.

Uber hopes facilities in Detroit will help shape its autonomous future

Mon, Sep 19 2016

Hot off the heels of unleashing its fleet of self-driving vehicles in Pittsburgh, PA, Uber announced plans to open a new facility in the Detroit, MI area, reports Automotive News. The new facility was announced at an event hosted by Society of Automotive Engineers in Detroit, MI. Uber's vice president of global vehicle programs Sherif Marakby revealed the news, reports Automotive News. The facility is meant to help the ride-sharing company collaborate with suppliers and automakers in the area. There's no word on where Uber will build the new facility or how big it will be, as those factors have yet to be determined. Just like Pittsburgh, PA, Detroit, MI could become another testing ground for the ride-sharing company. The latest move to open a facility in the Detroit area comes after Uber offered users in Pittsburgh the chance to ride in one of its autonomous vehicle as it looks to gain vital real-world testing. Uber is utilizing a fleet of modified Ford Fusions. Earlier this year in April, the automaker announced a partnership with Google, Lyft, Uber, and Volvo to develop autonomous cars. A new facility in Detroit would strengthen the partnership and help Uber, as well as Ford put autonomous vehicles on the road faster.
