This is a mild custom original.  Has a 50's Mercury flathead V8 with tri-power.  Converted to 12 Volts.  Also, has a 1997 S-10 five speed manual transmission which seems to be a perfect fit & easy shifting (& has a new clutch recently). 

Most else is original & well taken care of by long time owner. 

New tires have just been put on, with 16's, but bigger size in the back (spare is also new).  New electric fuel pump, but a new original type mechanical comes with it also.  It has sort of a VW horn (operated via foot button to left of clutch pedalL, but comes with a new ahooga horn. 

Starts easy & runs smooth.  New mufflers make it sound mild hum/roar.  Gauges work except for the gas gauge which needs to be calibrated to the new Ford sending unit ( I have the gentleman's name to get this done; otherwise just keep the new poly tank filled).  The lights were working but the guy I bought it from said a new switch was needed & one is supplied with purchase.  I may tinker to figure it out.  The fog lights work on a seperate switch.  There is a lighter socket plug in for a supplied handheld fan/heater (maybe defrost back-up).  It probably could be mounted for more convenience.  Truck is a hoot to drive & scoots for an old school HP.

Comes with 7 period hubcaps & 6 beauty rings.  Or, you can leave them off (see the driver side picture with all OFF; passenger side all hubcaps & beauty rings on for preferred look comparison; I prefer the hubcap & beauty ring look).  Two extra rims & I think two tires. 

Needed items eventually: minimal rust at driver door back corner & rain catcher/gutter.  Couple small bubbles on passenger door & less issue @ rain gutter.  The new light installed, as mentioned.  All the glass is excellent/new, but the driver's door roll-up glass has a crack.  It rolls up/down smoothly & is not going to fall out.  Passenger door window winds up/down smooth also. 

The bed wood looks to be original or replaced @ older restore.  It is very solid antique wood/hold down strips.  The truck underside/frame is excellent with no rust.  The hood sections were just sat on for pictures & not latched tight (usually left off for cool engine seeing).  The crank out windshield & air intake cowl port both work easily.

As can be seen, every exhaust part is new.  The doors close tight, evenly & snug with no drop in hinges or latches.


On Feb-05-14 at 13:15:27 PST, seller added the following information:

I meant to put in a picture of the bed wood, but do to limited picture loading on this format, I could not.  I can send more pictures to any email or maybe thru ebay.  The wood is aged but not rotting or need replacement. 


On Feb-05-14 at 15:31:31 PST, seller added the following information:

Has two gas caps, one regular, one locking (whichever owner prefers).  Has temperature gauge radiator cap.  The added tach works.  Also, a period dash glove box clock (would have to install; came on deluxe model?); could use new glass; I have the address of gentleman that has one & will install the new glass, free or inexpensively).

Muscle wins big at 2013 Amelia Island Concours as 1936 Duesenberg, 1968 Ford GT40 take top honors

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

The 18th-annual Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance took place this past weekend, and in one of the show's biggest years yet (bringing in more than 25,000 spectators and attracting more than 300 vehicles), two powerhouses ended up winning the judges' hearts. The top Concours d'Elegance award went to a 1936 Duesenberg SJN, while the Concours de Sport went to one of the celebrated marques, a 1968 Ford GT40.
Owned by Helen and Jack Nethercutt of Sylmar, CA, this flawless Duesy is described as "one of the most powerful open cars of the 1930s," and it displays design cues of the era like rolled fenders and a tapered rear end. The SJN's supercharged straight-eight allowed it to accelerate to 100 miles per hour in just 17 seconds - surely not a disappointing feat for its day.
On a much different level of performance and timelessness, this Gulf-livery GT40 from the Rocky Mountain Auto Collection is not outdone by the elegance of the big Duesenberg thanks to some well-documented racing history. This not only includes winning at LeMans in both 1968 and 1969 - Chassis No. 1075 also managed to win a total of six times in just 11 races.

2015 Ford Mustang potentially 'leaked' by Car and Driver

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

Few upcoming debuts have been as eagerly anticipated as the all-new Ford Mustang that's expected to debut shortly as the Mustang's 50th anniversary year approaches. Well, Car and Driver magazine would have us wait no longer as it claims to be leaking Ford's new global pony car early.
Of course what you're looking at is just as likely to be a composite rendering based on what C/D projects the new Mustang to look like, but to our eyes it looks spot on. Combining design traits from the Evos Concept with classic Mustang signatures and Ford's Aston-inspired grille treatment, C/D's images - including a complete 360-degree digital navigator - show a Mustang not only for the modern era, but also for global distribution, taking a quintessentially American car to markets its predecessors were never designed for.
Those global considerations are expected to spell the demise of the outgoing Mustang's holdout live rear axle in favor of an independent suspension, and a slight constricting of the exterior dimensions. And thanks to a separate leak, coming from a digital survey, we have apparent confirmation of what will power the new pony car. While the existing 3.7-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 engines will apparently carry over with only slight adjustments in output, the survey confirms a new 2.4-liter turbo four will be positioned in between them, offering slightly more power than the V6 but markedly improved fuel economy for a manageable $560 premium over base.

Just in time for the holidays, Snowkhana 3 is here

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The gift list for the 12 Days of Christmas is frightfully heavy on birds, so surely no one will mind if we sub out the three French hens for Snowkhana 3. Ford of Europe is back with another stop-motion video that – like versions one and two – throws a 1:64-scale Ford Fiesta in Ken Block livery around a fabulous world of action figures and make believe. This year's video "drives rings around some of the biggest YouTube hits," so those of you who've lost years of your lives to the greatest distraction since the human navel can put your knowledge to use. For anyone else just catching up, we'll help you get rolling: the opening Snowkhana scene channels Stalking Cat. You'll find the rest of your holiday homework in the video.
