I bought this car from Felton, CA with the intention of bringing it to Glendale, CA to restore to it's original glory. I have a clear California title with me that will be overnighted to the buyer after funds are cleared. You or your transporter can pick the truck up from the storage yard. Unfortunately I started too many other projects before this one. It's your chance to buy this rare truck. The truck is located about 500 miles away from me so I have not personally seen it. It is being stored at Copart auto auction yard. If you would like to see it in person or send an inspector to see the truck let me know and I will tell you how you can get access to it. The following is the previous owners listing for this truck.

Its very RARE being a Shortbed fleetside. This is a PERFECT truck to build and most desirable model to have being a fleetside shortbed with a factory 352 V8. Restored this trucks are bringing BIG $$$. As many know, the shortbed fleetside's are A MUST HAVE! I was told 1965 was the first year of the twin I-Beam suspension.

The truck is being sold as is not running. Its been sitting for several years, I have not attempted to start it, it may be as simple as a battery some fresh gas or ? I have no idea on the mechanical condition of the truck that's why its being sold as is, NOT RUNNING. Is has some cancer as shown in the pictures such as the inside of the bed, the hood, the roof and some minor spots. All the metal is available. The restoration would be easy address or fix compared to all the others I have seen.

This would make a great father son project, birthday or graduation present or someone just looking for a really neat project. It has the 352 V8 and automatic transmission. The odometer shows 42,318 and have no idea if there original or not. As you can see the body is SUPER STRAIGHT and best of all the truck is really complete and all the hard to find pieces are original and intact.

As far as the history, It was sold new in California in 1965, was painted once in the 1980's ans sat for many years. It has a tachometer and gauges which is a nice addition. This is a SERIOUS OPPORTUNITY for those that know about these trucks.

If you have any questions let me know or leave a phone number and I will contact you.

Ford 'working very hard' on F-150 hybrid

Thu, Dec 4 2014

The lighter, aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 gets (at best) 26 miles per gallon. That's not bad for a truck that size – and we should always remember that improving gas guzzlers can make a big difference Â– but what if the popular truck came with a gas-electric hybrid powertrain? How efficient would that be? We heard Ford talking about such a vehicle last year, and now we learn that Ford is still "working very hard" to make a F-150 hybrid happen. You want details? Well, we all want details, but those will not be coming for quite some time. Last year, Ford's global product development chief, Raj Nair, said that the company was planning to have hybrid pickups and hybrid SUVs on sale by 2020. With fuel prices dropping, Nair is now saying that a hybrid F-150 makes more sense, financially, than a diesel, but Ford could make both options available, depending on customer demand. The diesel wouldn't require all that much work, Nair said, since "we've got diesels in the portfolio." To date, the only hybrid F-150s we've seen have been conversions, often PHEVs, like this example from HVET or this one from Quantum. Pickup trucks from other manufacturers haven't been greeted with huge sales numbers. General Motors stopped making its big two-mode hybrids and cancelled the next-gen program.

2015 Ford Mustang spied on video for the first time

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

Not many cars will continue to hold our rapt attention quite like the upcoming redesigned 2015 Ford Mustang, codenamed S550 internally. Earlier this month, we brought you the first spy photos of a next-gen Mustang prototype out testing, and even though expertly placed cladding concealed the pony car's new shape, we could tell that underneath was hiding an altogether new form inspired by the Evos Concept from 2011.
Today we give you some video of what looks to be the same Mustang prototype, which you can watch below, and while the budding director behind the camera wasn't able to capture much in the way of the engine's audio signature, we can see the car in motion for the first time and compare its relative size and shape to the S197 Mustang GT that's on its tail.

Highlights and standouts from the 2015 LA Auto Show

Thu, Nov 19 2015

This year's LA Auto Show has been packed with interesting debuts and fascinating industry trends. The Autoblog team is on the scene to examine all the new metal, and Senior Editor Greg Migliore has some show highlights for us in the video above. In particular, the new Fiat 124 Spider and Honda Civic Coupe stand out as important debuts. The Fiat is based on the excellent Mazda Miata, with a turbocharged 1.4-liter engine and revised styling. The Civic Coupe is a striking redesign of an extremely popular and important model for the company. And the restyled Ford Escape looks more like its bigger brother, the Explorer. There's this an much more in our video above. Watch it and let us know what you think – and look for more LA Auto Show coverage coming soon.
