I have a 1961 Ford f100 unibody long bed up for grabs. This is a really cool old forest service truck that still has it's original patina paint that people are after these days.

This would make an awesome candidate for a slammed down patina hot rod!

It has a 223 6 that runs pretty good but is starting to puff blue smoke when I take off from a stop light after it warms up. The clutch is also staring to go away.

This is a very solid truck for 53 years old with the exception of some spots in the floors, front cab mounts, front of the hood (see pics and video).

The heater and wipers work the turn signals horn and gas gauge do not. There is a new turn signal switch that comes with the truck (uninstalled). The truck has a brand new gas tank and sending unit but I think the sending unit is no good? I pulled it out of the tank and hooked it up and raised the float all the way up then the needle on the gauge went up. Truck only has fuel and temp gauge, oil and charge are lights.Temp gauge works. There is a crack in the windshield, the rest of the glass is good. The doors need new anti rattlers, and could probably use a whole new rubber set through out the truck. The speedo works but bounces around a bit and the odometer shows 71,000 miles and judging by the condition of the interior it might be right, although I cannot confirm this.

This is a really nice, really complete, clean old truck that is kind of rare and worth fixing up in whatever direction you decide to go, stock, lowrider, gasser, ratrod, hotrod, or whatever.

Please look over the pictures closely and watch the video and feel free to ask any questions. I have tried to describe this truck the best I can but may have missed something. The truck is being sold "as is" with no warranty. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and cost.

Thanks for looking, Trevor (425)754-5946 1961 Ford F-100 Video

Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.

Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]

Sun, 15 Jun 2014

It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.

Carmakers, NHTSA to unveil auto-emergency braking agreement tomorrow

Wed, Mar 16 2016

Happy St. Patrick's Day Eve. Tomorrow, there will be green beer, corned beef and cabbage, and automatic emergency braking for all. Weird combo, we know. But on St. Patty's we can expect an official announcement from a pact of automakers making auto-braking systems standard equipment by 2022. That's per a report from Reuters, which cites three sources familiar with the plans. Originally announced in September 2015 by 10 automakers and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the agreement is expected to be even larger when the details are unveiled tomorrow. According to Reuters, the manufacturers of 99 percent of the US domestic market's vehicles will be represented by the new agreement. It's believed that standard AEB systems could prevent thousands of accidents across the country. Expect more on the official announcement when it's made. Related Video:
