Up for sale is one RARE 1979 F350 4X4
Located in Moab, UT
NO RESERVE! HIGHEST BID GETS THE TRUCK!
This is a factory 1979 F350 regular cab truck with a all steel flatbed. The truck retains it's factory drive train including the very desirable High Pinion Dana 60 front axle (this axle alone is worth $1000-1500). It has 410 gears with a locker in the rear. The truck has the factory manual 4 speed transmission and NP205 transfercase. It just passed Utah's state safety inspection a couple of weeks ago and is current on it's registration. Clear and clean title in hand with utah license plates and registration.
This drivetrain set up is very desirable. If you add lift springs to this truck you can run BIG tires reliably on the stock drivetrain without further modification.
The GOOD: Truck starts every time and can be driven anywhere. 4WD works great. Has engine block heater for cold weather. Tires and not new, but not needing replaced either. Set up for bumper or gooseneck towing. No visible rust showing. Dual fuel tanks are functional.
The BAD: Body has dents, dings and needs TLC. Interior is typical for a 1979 Ford - Dash cover is cracked from the sun, bench seat is saggy in the drivers position, speedometer works on and off, e-brake bracket needs to be reattached (but e-brake is otherwise functional), heater doesn't work, and carpet was replaced by some household shag carpet. Front tank could use a filler hose replacement. Brakes pull slightly to the left when applied. Transmission doesn't down shift into 3rd without priming it by trying to put it into 2nd (but it has been that way for a long long time). Drivers door shuts funny and could use a new hinge, but still latches and opens fine. The rear passenger mudflap flew off on the highway after I took the pictures. I am sure there is something I might be forgetting, but like I said - it just passed the Utah state safety inspection and is a registered driver.
THE BOTTOM LINE: If you are interested in this truck, you likely know that it is a rare truck with a very desirable drivetrain. It runs great, will go anywhere, and is ready to tackle any job you throw at it.
I wanted to keep this truck around because it is a great work truck, but I have to sell to fund another project I am working on. If you have questions feel free to contact me and I will respond as soon as possible.
Located in beautiful Moab, UT. Local pickup or buyer arranged shipping only. Cashier's check/money order/personal check if shipping or cash in person only. Buy must wait for personal checks to clear before the vehicle will be released.
Plan a trip for Easter Jeep Safari in Moab to pick this truck up!

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
Ford Focus ST checks into Jay Leno's Garage
Mon, 23 Sep 2013In a change of pace from the high-end vehicles that often appear in Jay Leno's Garage, Ford sends its hottest hatchback (in the US, at least), the 252-horsepower Focus ST, to be featured on Leno's show. Accompanying the five-door hatch is its chief engineer, Jamal Hameedi.
Riding on stylish 18-inch wheels with summer tires and with a spoiler that doubles as a lunch tray, Hameedi and Leno walk us through the finer points of what makes the ST special, which also includes bigger brakes, torque vectoring, a manual transmission and, of course, 252 hp and 270 pound-feet of torque from the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, which is made possible by 21 psi of turbocharged boost.
Watch the video below to see what Leno thinks of the global Focus ST.
