Up for auction is a rare 1963 Ford F100 Shortbed PROJECT truck, with it's original 292, and 3 speed manual transmission. This was the last year of the unibody trucks, which means the bed is attached to the cab. The truck still wears it's original paint, and besides the radio it's a very original truck! The truck is a project truck, I got her to run and drive but, she sat for many years and the carb needs to be rebuilt... idles rough. She starts up, no smoking or knocking. Has lots of caked on oil from over the years. It shows 18,000 miles on the odometer,  but the truck actually has 118,000 original miles on the truck. The truck has some rust in the drivers floor, and the drivers side body mount. Besides a few other small rust spots that's it for the rust issues. The cab mount on the drivers side should be replaced, or you can just weld it up. The truck will run and drive on it's own power, and the 3 on the tree shifts ok. I drove the truck around the block after I got it running, and it made me smile. The truck has a new Generator, new fuel pump, new voltage regulator, and she the charging system works great. The truck has a New Windshield too. The truck will be sold to the highest bidder, NO RESERVE!!

The outside of the truck has the normal dents from being used as a truck for many years. The nice thing is the bed has only minor surface rust. The bed is actually in very good shape for it's age. The tailgate as you can see has some dents in it, and some rust towards the lower left side. The tail gate stills opens, closes, and the latches both work. The body is very clean with just some minor rust in the lower parts of the doors. The windows roll up and down just fine, and the doors open and close great. The hood hinges are sprung of course. The truck for it's age is in very good condition. The nice thing is the wiring is in good shape under the hood, and nobody has hacked it up! And this truck would be a great candidate for restoration or for a Ratrod shop truck.

The truck is a nice PROJECT type truck! The winning bidder is required to pay a $500 non refundable deposit due within 24 hours of winning the truck! The truck is being sold " As Is" due to it's age. The deposit must be paid through Paypal. The remaining balance is due within 3 days of the auction closing, and the final payment may be made with a Cashiers check, wire transfer or cash in person. The truck must be picked up within 2 weeks of the auction closing, and my zip code is 89131 for shipping purposes. Please email me with any questions, and good luck!! choice!!

I forgot to add that the trucks lights all work, blinkers work, and the gas gauge work... plus it has a new sending unit, and the tank was flushed and acid washed also. The temp gauge works, and the Generator and Oil pressure light both work, and after the truck starts  they both go off. The charging system works great. I appreciate all the email questions in regards to the truck, and if you have any questions that you need to speak to me about in person, please call me at 702-321-2457, Thanks Shawn

Ford to revisit CVTs?

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Today, Ford wishes its first experience with non-hybrid continuously variable transmissions was far behind it. The Blue Oval was awash in complaints and a couple of class-action lawsuits over the CVTs used in its 2005-2007 Ford Freestyle, Five Hundred and Mercury Montego models, which were a manufactured in Batavia, Ohio as part of a joint venture with ZF. The company gave up on the CVT after just two years, but with fuel economy standards pressing automakers to conjure new tricks, Ford's global product development head, Raj Nair, is now saying the transmissions might make a return, "particularly in the low torque applications," says Automotive News. An obvious candidate for CVT consideration is the 1.0-liter Fiesta that can presently only be had with a five-speed manual. Beyond that, the company's 1.6-liter and 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines might fit the bill. Ford hasn't given any indication as to what vehicles it might use to reintroduce the CVT to the US market, or hints about timeline or who would develop it, however. Some CVT trivia: The 1990 Subaru Justy II was the first US passenger car offered with a continuously variable transmission - Subaru called it the ECVT. It handled gearing duties for a 1.2-liter, inline three-cylinder engine that got all of 70 horsepower. A contemporary blurb about the car begins with "Goodness, gracious, great gobs of gimmickry," and goes on to say that "We can't imagine where you would take this car for repairs, but we are certain that the one mechanic in the world who can fix it lives in a very expensive house." The transmission didn't win any fans, but the ECVT and the car have been largely forgotten, while Subaru played the long game and now you'll find its vastly improved Lineartronic CVT on six of the eight models it sells.

Ford GT successor to debut in Detroit and go racing

Thu, Dec 18 2014

Anticipation for all of the exciting reveals at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show just a few weeks away is building to a fever pitch, and rumors are mounting that Ford has a big surprise in store in the shape of a future performance halo model. Insider sources speaking to Autoweek claim the next Ford supercar is definitely going to be revealed at the Detroit show in early January. However, the model is not necessarily the next-generation Ford GT in terms of its name or design aesthetic. Instead, one of these people indicates that the new halo model might drop retro styling altogether. If the latest reports are to be believed, Ford's high-performance project goes beyond something to just grab headlines and rocket down the street. According to Autoweek, the automaker is also reportedly employing Chip Ganassi Racing to run a two-car racing effort in the Tudor United SportsCar Championship in 2016. That would allegedly include a trip to the 24 Hours of Le Mans to race on the 50th anniversary of the Ford GT40's win in 1966. The speculation goes that at least the racing version might use a twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 for power. However, the motorsports part of the program may not be announced during the auto show reveal. Rumors about the new halo car from the Blue Oval and its racing intentions have been percolating for months. The company might have considered an LMP2 entry, but speculation popped up later about the production supercar. A more recent report suggested that Ford might show a new Shelby GT350R Mustang, a successor to the F-150 Raptor and next Ford GT in Detroit.

Social media star Scott Monty leaves Ford

Thu, 22 May 2014

It seems weird to think that an automaker could have a social media star, but Ford does. Or at least it did. Scott Monty, its Global Digital Communications Manager, led the company's team for almost six years and forged a reputation as being one of the most talented people in corporate social media. But the guru recently announced that he would be leaving the automaker for an undisclosed job elsewhere.
"I just decided the time was right. I am going to take a little time with my family, and I am going to start on a new adventure pretty soon," said Monty in an interview with AdWeek. He also explained a little about his theory of how companies should use social media. In his opinion, it should be a chance to go beyond standard marketing and build a relationship with people. Businesses need to have a broad focus for its online message, and using just one service isn't enough to be successful.
Under his guidance, Ford expanded its Facebook presence significantly. According to AdWeek, it launched the 2010 Explorer on the popular site. Also, when the company wanted to investigate selling electric models, it initially gauged the public's reaction on Facebook and then advertised them there first. Monty has been a major supporter of Twitter as well to broaden the company's communication with the public.
