Marine, Illinois, United States

Up for sale is my 1964 Ford F100 Short Bed Pick-Up. It has a 1985 ford 302 V8 with a matching 1985 Ford C-5 automatic transmission. It shifts smooth, runs nice and has a list of new parts. I have replaced the distributor cap and rotor, valve covers, valve cover gaskets, transmission pan gaskets, transmission fluid, engine oil, oil filter, spark plugs and wires, it has newer tires with about 75-80% tread left, a new horn, electronic fuel pump, radiator cap, gas cap, battery, battery terminals, and I had a power rack and pinion steering kit from No-Limit Engineering installed, which before labor cost right around $900, and I also had power brakes put on it. The brakes are power drum brakes. I also had it painted when I bought it, which was about 6 or 7 years ago. The paint is not the greatest. There is some paint damage around the gas cap, which you can see in the pictures, the day after I had it painted gas leaked out and it ate through the paint because I parked the truck on a hill after I filled the truck up with gas. It happened 6 years ago, it hasn't gotten worse over time, I replaced the gas cap and the leak was no more. The rubber ring on the inside of the cap was dry rotted.

The paint is the worst thing about the truck. I haven't gotten it repainted because I spent the money to get it painted and I didn't see any reason to go ahead and fork out the money to get it repainted again because of the stupid gas cap. Anyway, I have quite a bit of time and money into my truck and if it sells it sells. I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells locally and if you wish to contact me and you are in the local area and have something you think I might want to trade from the 50's or 60s, give me a ring. 660-909-2907

Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
