1969 Ford F100
Good- Strong body all factory steel, runs strong and drives straight, no rust, solid floor boards and rocker panels as well as rear quarters and wheel wells. New front bumper and rear bumper. All trim is on the truck. Interior was updated by previous owner. Solid doors all windows function properly all lights work. Heat works as well as the a/c. Factory A/C blows cold air. New Mirrors, new rims and tires limited miles on the new tires. Manual 4-speed transmission t-18 or 19 with steel case shifts through gears perfectly. Reverse spotlight lights up where ever you are attempting to back into. Tilt steering wheel all gauges work radio is functional. Truck starts up every time can be used as a daily driver if that's what you would like although I wouldn't suggest that. 4-bbl carb msd ignition system. Manual brakes work extremely well. The carpet was replaced and is new (Black). Truck has lots of power to get through the gears quickly. 1st- Granny gear indestructible gearbox. Extremely reliable truck.
not so good- Truck was use as a farm truck for a long time and it has some dents to show for it, some dents have been popped out and filled with 3-M body filler but not all work is done. Primer is over spots that were repaired and not all primer spots are finished. Some steering play not a lot just slight wheel play. I've personally driven this truck 70 on the highway with no problems. No power steering or brakes (Factory). Could be updated if you would like. Steering column is out of a GM product replaced by the previous owner. Dash has cracks and not all speakers work with the radio. There is no headliner. The bed is showing some wear and could be replaced if you are going to fully restore the truck 35 dollar fix from NPD. Once the body work is completed it will need a paint job. Basically the truck just needs body work and a paint job. The tailgate is beat up from years of use, I have a replacement though that is in much better shape just would need to be primed before painting. (its black).
If you have any questions feel free to ask just message me and I will get back with you as soon as possible. If you would like more information regarding this truck or others like it just visit this website www.fordification.com they have all of the information you could ever hope for. Things like VIN decoding and ford truck forums from 67-72.
There is a lot of truck here and it has remained completely unrestored for 40+ years all original body and easy restoration.
Don't miss out on a great truck!

Guess which brand's not on a top 10 list of best EVs (hint: it's Tesla)
Thu, Jun 22 2023Few surprises lurk in Autotrader’s list of its 10 best electric vehicles of 2023, but there is one that stands out: no Teslas. There's Hyundais and Kias, Porsches and Fords, a BMW and a Nissan. But Â… no Teslas. Although many of us admit to being over-Musked and tired of reading about him, the lack of a Tesla model on a selection of the 10 most desirable current EVs is conspicuous by its absence. Asked about this particular omission, we received this rather vague response from Autotrader spokesperson Brenna Buehler at Cox Automotive: “Tesla models were included in consideration but didnÂ’t get sufficiently high scores by the Editorial team to qualify for the top 10.” At least some Tesla offerings appeared to meet all the requirements set by the website. The manufacturers must offer 2023 model year vehicles, and they have to be sold in at least 15 states. Check. Only pure EVs were allowed on the list; there are no hybrids, plug-in hybrids or hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles. Check. The base manufacturer's suggested retail price must be less than $100,000. Check. Let the debates begin. Moving on, it should be noted that two Genesis models, a G80 sedan and GV 60 SUV, are listed, along with a Lucid Air midsize sedan, the Rivian R1T pickup, and the Porsche Taycan. Here is the full list, with the remarks and comments from Autotrader's raters. (And we've included links to Autoblog's own reviews for a deeper dive). The EVs are listed in alphabetical order by brand, so don't read anything into the order of presentation: 2023 BMW i4 BMW reboots its EV approach and comes up with a winner: Whatever you thought of BMW's first run at EV, the i3, it was missing a certain something – it didn't look or perform like a BMW. The 2023 BMW i4 corrects course with a Gran Coupe that our editors agree looks and drives like a BMW. 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning Ford's electric pickup gathers steam in its second year: The F-150 Lightning somehow synthesized decades of pickup truck knowledge with the latest and greatest EV technology and infused thoughtful details and user-friendly features. 2023 Genesis Electrified G80South Korea's luxury brand shows how to elevate the executive EV sedan without breaking the bank: Genesis, Hyundai's luxury offshoot, rethought the gasoline-powered luxury sedan, the G80, and developed the 2023 Genesis Electrified G80. Precisely as the name hints, the Electrified G80 replaces the G80's engine with an all-wheel-drive EV powertrain.
GM readying aluminum-body fullsize pickups
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ford's extensive use of aluminum in its 2015 F-150 is a big deal. A really big deal. Big enough, in fact, that General Motors is reportedly changing its fullsize pickup strategy. According to The Wall Street Journal, The General has locked in partnerships with Alcoa Inc. and Novelis Inc. - companies that will supply aluminum for the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks.
"Ford's introduction of the 2015 F-150 pickup truck was a game changer, and it's the first, not the last, conversion of this type," Novelis spokesperson Charles Belbin told the Journal. The switch to aluminum has allowed Ford to shave roughly 700 pounds off its fullsize truck's curb weight. And while official mileage ratings have not been announced, the weight loss should go a long way for improving efficiency, especially when combined other efficiency-minded improvements including better aerodynamics and new, turbocharged V6 engines.
Of course, aluminum-bodied cars are nothing new. But extensive use of aluminum in a major, best-selling product like the Ford F-150 is expected to kick off widespread use of this weight-saving material as availability rises and cost decreases. The WSJ reports that GM had originally explored the idea of moving to aluminum pickups back in 2008, but abandoned the idea due to cost concerns amid economic woes.
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.
