1966 Ford F250 Camper Special / Custom Cab / Low Fast & Loud Shop Truck on 2040-cars
Colville, Washington, United States
1966 Ford F250 Camper Special Custom Cab customized shop truck. Original paint on this solid and straight old truck. Equipped with independent front suspension, power steering, power 12" disc breaks and a massive front sway bar thanks to a 1994 Chevrolet Cop Car. The rear end and 700r4 overdrive automatic transmission are also from this donor car. Motor is a good sound 1975 Cadillac 500 with rear sump pan from an Eldorado. This makes the truck drive, corner, handle and stop just like the Caprice Cop Car that donated the parts. The torque monster Cad motor coupled to 700r4 makes for lots of tire smoke and great cruising. Pretty good fuel mileage as well. I put this truck together about 4 years ago and have driven it over 15,000 trouble free miles. Never given me any trouble what so ever. Starts right up even when it was 15 degrees this past winter. Lots of new parts when built. New windshield and gasket, breaks all around. New radiator, hosed and heater hosed. Flushed the gas tank and new fuel lines and fuel pump. New dual exhaust system with glass packs and exit just in front of the rear wheels. New P235/60r15 on new torque thrust polished wheels on front. New P295/50R15 on torque thrust polishes wheels on rear. Front rims are 8" wide and rear are 9". Rear rubber is 10" wide at the thread. The Cad motor will still smoke the tires for 2 blocks if you want. Equipped with a line lock and a B&M torque converter lock up. All the glass is good and wing vents and windows roll up and down as they should. Doors and tail gate all close nice and fit good. All gauges work along with the dome light, horn, door locks and turn signals. Auxiliary fuel tanks in the box have been converted to lockable storage boxes and they work great when filled with ice for cold drinks. They have drain holes in the bottoms. This truck needs nothing. It's ready to go anywhere in the U.S. New seat, door panels, headliner and door pulls. Look at the floor rubber. It is original and still in great shape. I am sure that I am forgetting something's but that pretty much describes the truck. I would be glad to answer any question that you might have. Feel free to come drive this truck. I can be reached at 509-684-5723. If you need more pictures, just ask. I own a small rod shop here in Colville and have done 4 other similar trucks for local customers and have had no complaints. Just finished a 65 short box for my new shop truck so Rusty is for sale. Willing to work with the new owner as far as shipping goes. Short term storage is something we can talk about.

More than 800,000 Fords recalled for faulty Takata airbags
Thu, Jan 12 2017The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected. This is a planned expansion of an earlier recall. 2005-09 and 2012 Ford Mustang 2005-06 Ford GT 2006-09 and 2012 Ford Fusion 2007-09 Ford Ranger 2007-09 Ford Edge 2006-09 and 2012 Lincoln Zephyr and Lincoln MKZ 2007-09 Lincoln MKX 2006-09 Mercury Milan The Problem: Like every other Takata recall, the problem rests with faulty airbags that can potentially expel shrapnel, injuring or killing vehicle occupants. Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags. The fix: Ford will contact owners soon, and the affected vehicles will have their airbags replaced by a dealer at no additional charge. If you own one: Wait for contact from Ford, then head to the dealer to get a replacement. If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.

V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150
Wed, 23 Jul 2014How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags.

The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer.
