1969 Ford F-100 Ranger 2x4 Shorty on 2040-cars
Cookeville, Tennessee, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Ford
Drive Type: C-6 automatic
Model: F-100
Mileage: 104,612
Trim: ranger
I have decided to sell my 69 Ford F-100 Ranger 2x4 shorty. I have always loved old Ford pick-ups and bought this one 1 1/2 years ago at the F-100 Nationals in TN. I am part owner of an auto restoration shop in Cookeville, TN. and was there with a 67 Ranger long bed that we entered with that we had completed in time for the show. That truck took first place in class and had a 7 page magazine article written about it. Yes I know Ford trucks. This one was for sale by an elderly gentleman that loved it and had it for many years. I bought it because it is a cool 99% rust free Ford truck and I know what it would cost to put one in this condition if there were professional restoration services needed to be done. I am too busy with other businesses to find time to go out end enjoy this truck and have put minimal mileage on it since I have owned it. It has been in temperature control storage. Since I have owned truck it has always had 93 Octane Non-ethanol fuel.
The motor is a 1972 390 service block (heavy duty) ribbed FE with 4 Holley 4 barrel. I have all the receipts when the motor was built and the older gentleman used mostly NOS Ford High performance parts including cam. This truck runs awesome, sounds great and is powerful. I don't know how many miles are on the motor but the odometer says 004011 for the truck. I would suspect it is at 104012. I have decoded the door tag and this truck came with 360 2-V auto and 3.25 :1 rear gears. The C-6 that is in it shifts perfect and the drive train is solid. The truck was built in Canada and came Wimbledon White. The ex-owner said he two toned it. The interior is original to the truck with Zero tears, cuts or wear spots on seat. The only bad is someone put speakers in the lower doors.
The A/C is cold, cold and appears to be dealer installed. The tire have very low miles put on them and the wheel combo fits and grows on you. I took this to a car show and drag race a month ago and every where it went in town or down the interstate there were many thumbs up. This is a beautiful stock truck for the weekend driver and with minor little things it could be a knock out cruiser.
This F-100 is for sale locally (not a inexpensive truck but very affordable) and I reserve all right to shut auction down any time. This truck is very fairly priced and no disappointments expected and is exactly has described. There is money owed against it and all transaction will go through local bank holding the note.
A couple pictures are blurry but I put them here because I am not close enough to drive over to it and retake. There are pic's of cab mounts and underneath, and the oil pressure gauge shows high oil pressure. The under shots are to show that this truck is the 99% rust free I mentioned above. One pic is Australian Shepard was worried she might be left and would not get out. If you win and for any reason you are dissatisfied I will refund all monies. Any questions or comments can be directed to ebay email and will be answered in a reasonable amount of time. You can also call 931-881-8351 with any questions.

Ford Mustang was almost 'Imported from Detroit'
Wed, Oct 7 2015The Ford Mustang achieved iconic status nearly the moment the sheet came off at the 1964 World's Fair. And if Henry Ford II wasn't getting divorced around that time, the pony car might have been called the Torino and been marketed as 'Imported from Detroit,' according to Automotive News. We'll explain. During research for the new book Once in a Great City: A Detroit Story, author David Maraniss found an interesting connection between Chrysler's (now FCA US) slogan and the Ford Mustang. Before the pony car even had a name, the Blue Oval's advertising agency had the idea to market it as a "brand new import ... from Detroit," according to Automotive News. The vehicle would be sold as "inspired by Italy's great road cars, but straight from Detroit." The name Torino was suggested, as well. However, the real world interfered in making the Mustang Detroit's first import. According to the author, Henry Ford II was getting a divorce, and his future wife was Italian. It was therefore thought to be a bad idea to sell the future pony car as being from Italy. Things clearly changed by the time the Torino hit the streets years later. Related Video:

More evidence GT500-replacement will be named GT350
Tue, 17 Dec 2013During the recent unveiling of the 2015 Ford Mustang, we saw the car in both V6 and GT form, but we'll have to wait a little bit longer to see the successor to the Shelby GT500. In the meantime, though, it looks like SVTPerformance.com has confirmed reports that this high-performance model will bring the Shelby GT350 name back to Ford.
According to the forum post, a user found the Shelby GT350 name on a Ford promo website listing its 2015 lineup. The Shelby GT350 name was first used on a Mustang back in 1965, and most recently it has been a model created for customers as a post-title purchase by Shelby American. As for that car, Shelby confirmed earlier in the year that its GT350 would be phased out at the end of this month.
The million-dollar question for Mustang and Shelby enthusiasts is when we'll see next factory Shelby GT350. Last we heard it was planned for a debut at the New York Auto Show. We've included our previous spy shots of this hi-po, sixth-gen Mustang, and we've also captured it on spy video showing off its exhaust note.
