 BODYWORKER'S  DREAM  PROJECT  TRUCK


A rare 1960 F-100 with a great combination of features:   Remanufactured 292 V-8, 4 Speed, Front Disk Brake Up-Grade, Original Power Steering, Long Bed, Custom Cab w/ Wrap-Around Rear Window and Trailer Hitch.
Key systems professionally over-hauled or replaced; what remains of the restoration project is cleaning up the rust (I've done the hood) and a new paint job (I was quoted $3,500).  Original paint on a dent free body is what you have to work with.
1)  292 V-8 remanufactured by Marshall Engines, Kearney, Nebraska (A remanufactured engine is superior to a rebuilt in both power and durability.)
    - Carried a 36 month/100,000 mile warranty/expired
    - 9500 miles since remanufacture
    - Edelbrock 4-Barrel Carb and Intake Manifold;  Headers w/ new Exhaust System;  Low-end Torque Cam
2)  Cooling and Fuel System - complete replacement
3)  Power Steering & Front Suspension - complete overhaul
4)  Power Train (clutch, transmission, limited-slip differential) overhaul/replace
5)  Braking System - Front Disk Brake Up-grade; rear brakes overhauled
6)  Seat Belts - upgrade to 3 Point Harness
7)  New Seals on all windows and doors
8)  Trailer Hitch - 2 Balls available - not shown.
9)  New Tires with overhaul 
10)  Set of Ford Shop and Parts and Accessories Manuals
11)  One original black license plate is available; may be able to order a duplicate (at least in Calif.)
12)  17 page Invoice of overhaul work to all systems is available.
Condition issues:  Driver's vent window cracked, small rust-through hole at right rear of bed above bumper, also along bottom of tailgate, air vent and heater control cables hard to adjust, spot light does not work.  Dash cover needs to be replaced.  Also, I'd selectively re-chrome the grill and headlight areas.
History: Second owner; since early 1970s.  California truck except for 10 years in southern Arizona.
This is a great truck and I am sad I have to let it go - we're moving to Hawaii instead of settling back in Northern California.  Even when heavily loaded it handles well on both rural roads and in heavy freeway traffic; the "new" engine and its combination of mods/up-grades has resulted in a truck with plenty of power.
Oh yes, the factory AM radio still works and the nylon carpet covering the bed (see photo) is included.

Lexus tops JD Power Vehicle Dependability Study again, Buick bests Toyota

Wed, Feb 25 2015

It shouldn't surprise anyone, but Lexus has once again taken the top spot in JD Power's Vehicle Dependability Study. That'd be the Japanese luxury brand's fourth straight year at the top of table. The big news, though, is the rise of Buick. General Motor's near-premium brand beat out Toyota to take second place, with 110 problems per 100 vehicles compared to Toyota's 111 problems. Lexus owners only reported 89 problems per 100 vehicles. Besides Buick's three-position jump, Scion enjoyed a major improvement, jumping 13 positions from 2014. Ram and Mitsubishi made big gains, as well, moving up 11 and 10 positions, respectively. In terms of individual segments, GM and Toyota both excelled, taking home seven segment awards each. The study wasn't good news for all involved, though. A number of popular automakers finished below the industry average of 147 problems per 100 vehicles, including Subaru, (157PP100), Volkswagen (165PP100), Ford/Hyundai (188PP100 each) and Mini (193PP100). The biggest losers (by a tremendous margin, we might add) were Land Rover and Fiat, recording 258 and 273 problems per 100 vehicles. The next closest brand was Jeep, with 197PP100. While the Vehicle Dependability Study uses the same measurement system as the Initial Quality Survey, the two metrics analyze very different things. The VDS looks at problems experienced by original owners of model year 2012 vehicles over the past 12 months, while the oft-quoted IQS focuses on problems in the first 90 days of new-vehicle ownership. Like the IQS, though, the VDS has a rather broad definition of what a problem is. Because of that, a low score from JD Power is no guarantee of extreme unreliability, so much as just poor design. In this most recent study, the two most reported problems focused on Bluetooth connectivity and the voice-command systems. The former leaves plenty of room for user error due to poor design (particularly true of the Bluetooth systems on the low-scoring Fords, Volkswagens and Subarus), while the second is something JD Power has already confirmed as being universally terrible. That makes means that while these studies are important, they shouldn't be taken as gospel when it comes to automotive reliability.

Ford F-Series Super Duty prototype reduced to smoldering mess of aluminum and steel [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

The most important bit of information you need to know after looking through our high-res gallery of images depicting a prototype 2016 Ford F-Series Super Duty pickup truck burning to the ground is that nobody was hurt. There were two engineers inside the vehicle when it caught fire, and both exited to safety.
That's the good news. The bad news is that the truck, which appears to have been testing in Death Valley, appears to be a total loss, minus, of course, whatever information Ford can glean from the conflagration - particularly tracing it back to its root cause. Besides that, we're also expecting the body of the next Super Duty to be hewn from aluminum, as is the case with its smaller brother, the brand-new F-150. Note the little aluminum droppings littering the roadway as apparent proof of that.
Our spy photographers report that it took just 21 minutes for the F-Series Super Duty to burn completely to the ground. The fire appears to have started in the driver-side front wheel well, spreading to engulf the entire front end in three minutes. We can't confirm the source of the blaze, but we're curious if the car's black vinyl cladding, meant to obscure the secrets within, contributed to the fire.

Auto investor Kirk Kerkorian dead at 98

Wed, Jun 17 2015

Kirk Kerkorian, among the most talked-about investors in the American auto industry in recent memory, died at the age of 98 in Los Angeles on Monday, June 15. The billionaire ran the investment company Tracinda Corp. and was the largest shareholder in MGM Resorts International. Kerkorian attempted to use his power as a well-financed investor to push the auto industry in some fascinating ways. In 2006, he used his nearly 10-percent stake in General Motors to push a merger with the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The deal made it as far as discussions, but eventually fell through. Kerkorian also attempted to purchase Chrysler - twice. According to Automotive News, the first effort came in 1995 with a $22.8-billion offer for the automaker, and soon after it failed the company merged with Daimler. Then in 2007, Kerkorian was back with a bid for $4.5 billion, but things eventually fell to Cerberus. The billionaire finished the trifecta by buying up $1 billion in Ford stock in 2008 to make Kerkorian the single largest investor in the company. However, the situation didn't last long, and by the end of that year, he had unloaded the shares. According to Automotive News, Kerkorian was ranked by Forbes as the world's 41st richest man in 2008 with a net worth of $16 billion.
