I am re-listing my 1961 Ford F-100 half ton pickup truck with a lowered reserve. This truck was originally owned by the u.s. air force, from dry western states (Idaho)

This is a very straight example of an early 60's Ford truck. This truck has very little rust and the two areas of concern. The two areas are below the small steps, on the leading edge of the rear fenders. These areas are not visible from the top of the step, only from below. This should be a very easy fix.

The interior front cab corners have patches that look like professional repairs. The cab corners are very solid as are the bottom of the doors and fenders. The other areas of needed body work are the drivers door and the driver side front fender at the leading edge. The photographs show these areas. The remainder of the truck is extremely straight and rust free, including the frame. There are no frame repairs, and the truck tracks straight. The excellent patina is great if you want to drive the truck like it is. All of the military Air Force decals are in place on the outside and on the dashboard. The truck starts very easily and runs well, no vibrations or stalling. Directional signals and brake lights work, but the cancel switch for the directional signals should be replaced. The tops of the bed rails are super straight and in great condition, this is also true with original tailgate, all tailgate hardware is original. The military radio does not work and is for display purposes only. The engine is a 223 cubic inch type with a 3-speed column shift (three on the tree.)

I have completed the following work: new headliner, new sun visors, new high energy battery, new battery cables, painted battery tray, new driver side arm rest, new Coker truck tires, sand blasted Ford wheels painted blue to match the body color, excellent newly painted correct Ford hubcaps, new lug nuts on all four wheels, new reproduction rubber floor mat, new reproduction chrome outside mirror. I have a set of nice oak bed rails that will go with this truck.

This truck runs excellent and stops well. You can drive it right now. Note: The steering is somewhat hard at this point and should be corrected to drive comfortably. The steering is the manual type, brakes work very well but are not power brakes. The windshield has a small crack on the drivers side but it is not in the field of view. In addition, there are a few rock chips in the glass, but nothing serious. The engine runs cool and the instruments work with the exception of the odometer. It broke a couple of months ago so the mileage is slightly higher than 48,303. Mileage appears to be original, and mostly military miles.

This truck could be restored, customized, make a shop truck, or rat rod it. Very straight, very little rust, laser straight frame, would make an easy restoration.

Please contact me with any questions you may have regarding this truck. My name is Arnie, and I can be reached at (949) 573-1139. Or, you can email me through eBay messaging. I will promptly answer your emails.

NOTE: You may contact me with any reasonable offers on this truck, please no low ball offers.

The truck is currently licensed and insured in CA, and has no back DMV fees due.

A $500.00 non-refundable deposit is required within 48 hours of the auction close. You may contact me to make final payment arrangements after the close of the auction.

Please note that I am only accepting US bidders at this time, I am not set up to sell outside of the US. There are no warranties expressed or implied on this vehicle. The truck is being sold in "as is"; "where is" condition.

Transportation of this truck to the winning bidders location is the responsibility of the auction winner. I can assist with the loading of the truck.

Thank you for looking at my auction and good luck.

Ford spills SEMA all over its Expeditions

Sat, 01 Nov 2014

If you're going to this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas, it's going to be tough to miss the Ford booth, simply for its size. The Blue Oval is bringing over a dozen customized examples of the 2015 Mustang and a quintet of modded Transits. The latest announced addition is a trio of upgraded 2015 Expeditions showing different takes on the recently refreshed SUV.
Any vehicle tuned by Dub Magazine needs to ride on massive wheels, and the Expedition (pictured above) that it has for SEMA is no exception. The SUV has 26-inch Dropstars wheels wrapped in Pirelli tires, and, making them look even larger, the suspension is also lowered. The rest of the custom has some mild upgrades like mesh grilles in front, tinted windows, an integrated radar detector and new upholstery inside.
Tijn wants to boost the performance of the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 for its take on the Expedition. The company claims to add 40 horsepower to bring total output to a claimed 405 by upgrading the engine with a charge cooler from Vortech Engineering, a custom side exhaust and a custom tune. To match the extra grunt, the SUV also gets bigger brakes, an Air Lift suspension and 24-inch, copper-colored wheels with custom fender flares.

And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.
