I just got this in to Sell for a Friend.I must say when I first saw it I was blown away how nice it is so I do my usual and take it for a couple days and put some miles on it to give a real description of it.So after talking to owner he has owned it for 3 years and bought it from the Estate of a good friend who passed away and was the original Owner sense New and he is the one who spent $ 10000.00 about 10 years ago re-storing the Body which in the pictures you can see what a Job they did to get it to look this good and original looking because he loved this Van and wanted to preserve it. he was a plumber that is why all the original wood cabinets are still there on the inside.So after the drive and putting it up on a lift and taking pictures so you can see what I see and answer most of your questions on how it looks.It starts right up when you pull the choke out and pump gas peddle twice No smoke came out the tail pipe it takes a while to warm up almost think a rebuild on the carb would help it out and yes I could have pulled off fresh air snorkel to carb but left to show it's original and falling apart. So once on my way and getting use to the 3 Seed Manuel Colum shift runs great has plenty of Power with the 302 V8 . Drives real good of course no power steering or brakes it's a Real Work Van ! All the gauges and lights work all windows work no cracks Has the Original Owner Manuel !.It's kind of Cool how the door's swing all the way forward when you let them go to the door stop. As you can see with the pictures under the van how much rust was cut out and all New metal was put in and the frame rails being fixed with Real Box Steel to fix the Frame the Right Way ! I try'ed to find a comparable for him to give him a idea what it's worth but there are NO comparable's anywhere to be found because being a Work Van when they were Used up then Junked !!! So this is Super Rare being a 1 ton 1969 and still looking this good it's up to your Bidding what's it worth ...being sold as is no warranty expressed or implied in Connecticut dose *NOT give titles on 25 years or older there is a *Bill of Sale and the *Registration on the bottom of it is a tear off is sign'ed over to New Owner. also for sale locally also feel free to come out and see it and drive it I am 20 min outside Hartford CT 06084 Good Luck Bidding....

Ford-sponsored survey says a third of Brits have snapped a 'selfie' while driving [w/videos]

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

Talking on the phone while driving isn't advisable, and texting while driving is downright dangerous. Considering those truths, the fact that we even need to point this out this is incredibly disturbing: taking "selfies" while behind the wheel is exceptionally stupid. But, it's a thing that a third of 18- to 24-year-old British drivers have copped to doing, according to a new study from Ford.
Ford, through its Driving Skills for Life program, surveyed 7,000 smartphone owners from across Europe, all aged between 18 and 24, and found that young British drivers were more likely to snap a selfie while behind the wheel than their counterparts in Germany, France, Romania, Italy, Spain and Belgium.
According to the study, the average selfie takes 14 seconds, which, while traveling at 60 miles per hour, is long enough to travel over the length of nearly four football fields (the Ford study uses soccer fields, but we translated it to football, because, you know, America). That's an extremely dangerous distance to not be focused on the road.

Peel and Ford Transit do a great Austin Powers impression

Tue, May 6 2014

It's no secret that the average fullsize cargo van is big. Like, really big. Expressing that size, though, without actually seeing the van in question, is a pretty tall order. When viewed from the right angle, even something as big as a cargo van can appear very small (look up forced perspective, to see what we mean). That's why it's always good to have a second object on hand, to provide a sense of scale. Ford took this simple idea to the extreme, illustrating the size of the new Ford Transit by pulling the world's smallest production car, the Peel P50, nose first into the van's 487-cubic-foot cargo area. That's no big deal, though, right? After all, at just 54 inches long and 39 inches wide, the Peel would fit quite happily in even the smallest fullsize truck bed. Ford takes it a step further, though. With the help of an actual reverse gear (we're guessing this is a CVT-equipped, electric model), the P50 manages to turn itself around and drive out. It does this in less than two minutes. So yeah, the Ford Transit is a pretty big van. Take a look below for the video from Ford. This content is hosted by a third party.

2014 Ford Cobra Jet announced with new colors, parachute mount

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Ford's drag-strip-ready Mustang Cobra Jet is back for 2014, and it's sporting a few changes to make it even better - both in competition and while sitting still. Rolling off the assembly line ready for duty in the NHRA Stock or Super Stock classes, production of the 2014 Cobra Jet is limited to just 50 units.
Racing upgrades for 2014 include the addition of a new three-speed transmission and a parachute mount, and while these will make the car better in the quarter mile, the Cobra Jet's new colors will make it look better tearing down the track. Buyers can now get their racecars painted up in Gotta Have-It Green or a custom, Cobra Jet-exclusive matte black hue. Ford and Ford Racing have already teamed up to make this an incredible factory drag racer with a full rollcage, massive Hoosier slicks, a race-tuned suspension setup and a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. Now, if only wheelie bars came standard...
Unlike the confusing third-party ordering system announced for the COPO Camaro, all you need to snatch up a 2014 Cobra Jet is $97,990 and good timing (as the cars will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis). Ordering opens up next month with production commencing in July. Check out the press release below.
