Comments:
---Radiator - original, (rare) looks decent
---Radiator shield - very nice original
---Headlights - very decent, no reflectors
---Tail light - none
---Motor - the one in the car is stuck
---Extra motor - complete and decent - extra manifold to replace the one on the motor which is welded.
This is the motor that I took the VIN number from - it was hard to see, so it may not be perfect.
---Bumpers - both front and back are present.
---Seats - 3 seat frames are present, no springs as it is better to purchase new ones.
---Rear Fenders - both are decent with hidden weld underneath, not visible on top.
One has a hole where the tail light would fasten.
---Front Fenders - one with no weld, but some cracks near area of running boards.
One with a 4" crack thru the bead.
---Hood - very nice, no weld, all handles and parts present.
---Gas tank -- looks good and solid
---Windshield frame - looks good.
---Doors - one has a dent and is solid
One has no dent, but rust out on bottom.
---Cowl - solid with rust out on bottoms of both sides.
---Areas under rear fenders - no rust out - typically there is rust out here.
---Floor - metal looks decent
- wood on one side looks decent, one side needs replacing.
- wood on sides, look decent
- wood around top - needs replacing.
----Top metal - one side and back have holes or rust out.
----rims - nice
---Title - THERE IS NO TITLE BUT I HAD TO PUT SOMETHING IN
THAT REQUIRED AREA TO SATISFY EBAY.- there was not
a "no title" option available.
This is a decent car to restore or rod, and when done, you will not find many (or any) cars as rare as this one.

I will be available on Monday, 8/19. But get your questions in early.

Hennessey completes first VelociRaptor SUV conversion [w/video]
Mon, 20 May 2013Start with a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor as your base vehicle for modification, and chances are high that you'll end up with something pretty cool. Now, have those modifications done by professional lunatics Hennessey Performance, make the project turning the pickup into an ultra-long SUV, and the result stands a real chance of being a total kick in the ass. Let us present the Hennessey VelociRaptor then, in all of its awesomeness.
Hennessey has taken care in grafting a "Expedition style" rear cabin onto the Raptor, complete with an optional third row. The pictures we have show a cabin that's up to the fit and finish standards of the original Ford truck, too. The cab added over the bed also makes room for a massive load space out back, accessible via split out-folding doors and long enough for a person to lay down in (see video).
Mechanically, the truck-turned-SUV sticks with Ford's stock 6.2-liter V8, rated at 411 horsepower, or can be had with a supercharger and some 600 hp. Hennessey says the stock-motor VelociRaptor will run from 0-60 miles per hour in 7.5 seconds, while the hi-po version takes just 5.9 seconds. The SUV does take some of the off-road ability away from the Raptor, with the company saying it hasn't yet had the opportunity to test its capabilities. On-roading and "moderate off-road duties" are the current prescription.
Court puts kibosh on apartheid lawsuit against Ford, Daimler
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Ford and Daimler have scored a major victory in a long-running lawsuit filed in US federal court by unnamed South African nationals. The suit alleges that both manufacturers and their subsidiaries sold their vehicles to the South African military, despite knowing that they'd be involved in violently putting down anti-apartheid protesters.
According to Reuters, South African plaintiffs filed the case under the 223-year-old Alien Torts Statute, a law which allows foreign nationals to file charges in US courts for perceived breaches of what was originally international law, but now more closely relates to violations of human rights.
And while the case - which also involves computer manufacturer IBM - has been tied up in federal courts for years, a recent case from the Supreme Court struck down a similar suit against Royal Dutch Petroleum (Shell), arguing that the ATS doesn't apply to corporations or to conduct if it occurred outside the US. In short, the law applies to individuals, but not corporations like Ford or Daimler. A US appeals court ruled that the conditions apply in this case, potentially drawing this long-running saga to a close, as the defendants will now be allowed to request that the case be dismissed in district court.
