Ok, so I am relisting my truck with a very low reserve. It needs to go to a good home and to someone who will drive it. I can give you a hint..reserve is between $3750 and $3850. The truck is worth much more in my eyes but I know what she can do and what I've done to her. But she needs to find a home. So here is what you are looking at =
This is a 1969 F100 long bed (8ft) "Custom Cab". The truck has a 360 engine but I was told that it was bored to the 390. I never went into her to find out if that was a fact or not but I can tell you she has more power than you will ever need. I bought this truck from a farmer in Georgia, which it still has the Decatur. Ga dealer metal plate on it, and made it my loving project for 5yrs. The engine runs super strong and has even compression. Living in Charleston parking can be a problem so I did convert her to power steering. I wanted to keep the "3 on the tree" configuration so I modified the steering shaft. The power steering box came out of a 1972. I left the breaks original but I did have my mechanic run all new lines and we dropped in a new master cylinder. We also wanted to put in a new edelbrock carb so we went ahead and did that. All the body work was done by me. I took the entire exterior body apart and sanded her down and primed and painted her. The bed was in such good shape, all I did was rolled on a bed liner. All the steel is good, the bed isn't even warped on bit. All the trim and the grill is original or bought through Denise Carpenter (the only company that carried certified Ford parts). The interior is super clean. The seat is original and I was planning on having it re-covered, but I never got to it (hence the saddle cover). The dash is new ( I replaced it). and the all gauges are in working order.
the cons on this truck:
1) the passenger window needs some love on the track. she sticks at times.
2) the key that starts the truck is the key that unlocks the passenger door only. I had to do work on the lock system and I had a lock from another truck so I used it. You can buy a new hole key set from Denise Carpenter or LMC for pretty cheap. But I never locked the doors so wasn't an issue to me.
3) on the driver side front panel (between the hood and the windshield) there is a good dent. It was if the hood flew up or something fell on it. I never bothered to deal with this due to the fact it just gave it character.
4) the exterior rear window seal is cracked and missing about 1/2" but can be easily replaced....I just never got to it.
5) I threw a hub cap about a month ago and never new it so it's missing one :-(
This truck is super clean and ready to dive on a daily basis or as a weekend enjoyment.
Happy bidding!

Ford recalls over 680,000 Ford Fusions, Mondeos, and Lincoln MKZs for seat belt pretensioners
Fri, Dec 2 2016Update: We spoke with a Ford representative who said that owners will be notified by mail during the week of January 16 . Dealers will also have the fix available at the same time. Owners can bring in their vehicles to dealers for an evaluation in the mean time. The main text has been updated to reflect this. The Basics: Ford is recalling 680,872 2013-2016 Ford Fusions, 2015-2016 Ford Mondeos, and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZ s for an issue with front driver-side and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners. The Problem: The seat-belt pretensioners did not have sufficient insulation applied. When the pretensioners are activated, the heat generated can cause the cables connected to the belts to separate, which in turn can prevent the seat belts from effectively restraining the occupant. This can lead to injuries. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports two accidents and two injuries have occurred that are related to this recall. The fix: A dealer technician will inject an insulation coating around the pretensioner. This should effectively keep the heat away from the cables, ensuring the seat belt will properly restrain the user in a collision. If you own one: Affected owners will be notified by mail on the week of January 16. Dealers will have the fix available that week, and owners will be able to bring in their vehicles for the fix to be implemented free of charge. Related Video:
Feds Probe Power Steering In 938,000 Ford Midsize Cars
Mon, Oct 6 2014U.S. safety regulators are investigating complaints that the power-assisted steering can suddenly fail on three Ford midsize car models. The probe covers 938,000 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars from the 2010 through 2012 model years, as well as the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received 508 complaints alleging that the cars lost power-assisted steering, causing increased steering effort. Four complaints say the problem caused crashes, but no injuries were reported. The agency says in documents posted Monday on its website that in many cases, a warning message appeared as the failure happened. Restarting the car corrected the problem in some cases, but the problem returned in others. The agency says it will check the scope and frequency of a problem. It could seek a recall. Ford says it's cooperating with the probe. Shares of Ford Motor Co. rose 6 cents to $14.65 in morning trading Monday. Its shares are down 14 percent over the past year.

2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100*
Tue, 04 Nov 2014The Ford Edge gets an updated platform, bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.
That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.
Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.
