As a result, the upholstery needs repair (or replacement). Horn circuitry has a short but mechanic has tested and the horn is functional. Starter has a small issue as sometimes there is a grinding noise when turning it over. There are also minor paint blemishes which need touching up and there are small amounts of rust in these areas. Left tail pipe should be replaced soon as well."

PRICE LOWERED (Matched against the NADA Collector's Guide)

This truck is in great shape and is a diamond in the rough! I need to let it go to find a home where someone will have the time to restore this beauty to its original glory. I simply don't have the time needed to keep it up.

Truck needs a few minor repairs (listed below) but all in all it's in great mechanical shape, is straight, and has always been well cared for and maintained. Body has no major damage, but could use a little work and some touch-ups to the paint. The interior has all original parts and as such the upholstery could use some attention. Every mechanic who has ever worked on my late grand-dad's truck has said that it will run forever, as a discerning eye will surely be able to see.

There is just under 60k mi. on a rebuilt 390 big block V-8

Known Issues:
- Starter needs some attention as once in awhile will grind when turning over the ignition
- Horn circuitry has a short somewhere between battery and horn. Tested and horn works fine
- Rear left tail pipe needs to be replaced soon
- Few spots where paint needs to be touched up, minor rust beneath
- Oil seep locations, but expected with this age of truck

Serious inquiries only please - take a look at the pics and let me know if you're interested!  Thanks for taking a look!

Ford looks to space robots to improve car-to-car communications [w/video]

Wed, 21 Aug 2013

Ford has partnered with St. Petersburg Polytechnic University for three years to research various kinds of connected vehicle communications. The university tie-up is part of its study of space robots, NASA systems created to enable space-to-Earth communication, and the university's own development of systems that enable communication between the International Space State and Earth.
The objective is for Ford to engineer layers of robust networks and redundancy systems that will allow your car to speak to other cars, to emergency vehicles, to infrastructure like traffic lights and buildings, and to the cloud. Benefits would come in just about every area of transit, from avoiding accidents, to getting medical workers to an accident more quickly, to improving the flow of traffic during rush hour.
Check out the press release below for details on what Ford wants to learn from the JUSTIN Humanoid and NASA Robonaut R2, and a video of technical leader Oleg Gusikhin discussing his interest in the project.

Monsoon rains disrupt production for Ford, BMW in India

Wed, Dec 2 2015

Even modern production techniques can be stymied by Mother Nature. This was demonstrated most recently in India, as torrential, monsoon rains caused a deluge that forced multiple automakers to suspend production. Ford, Renault, and BMW all halted work at their Indian facilities around the southern city of Chennai, also known as Madras. The annual rains disrupted public transport around the city, preventing employees from making the trek into city's factories. According to Automotive News, Chennai saw 48 inches of precipitation last month alone, which is more than Seattle, WA saw in all of 2014. While Ford and BMW closed things down for all of December 1, Renault just cancelled a pair of shifts at its Chennai factory. This is the second time in the past month that automakers in southeast India have been forced to stop production due to severe flooding, and things aren't likely to improve. According to The Weather Channel, forecasts call for thunderstorms over five of the next seven days, while the chance of rain won't fall below 80 percent until December 8. Ford, Renault, and BMW are far from the only automakers that could stand to be impacted by the rains. The city has been nicknamed "The Detroit of India" for its extreme automotive presence. Daimler, Hindustan, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, and Nissan all own factories in the region.

Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."
