Up for auction is my 1966 Ford F-100 short bed custom cab with a 352 V-8 and 3spd on the column with factory overdrive. The engine runs great and has plenty of power. The trans has a vibration in first gear only but once you shift to second it goes away. I will include a spare trans with the truck that shifted good and came out of another running truck. The body of the truck is very straight with no rust or rot at all as you will see in the pics. This truck came out of Northern Nevada so it is very solid! When I found the truck it was missing all the trim so I found all of it and put it on. The trim is in decent shape and will shine up nice, the bed side trim was from a long bed so I cut it down to length to fit the truck. The body is in primer now but was originally light blue. The interior is very nice and everything works including the heater!! It has a stereo that is mounted under the dash and there is one hole in the seat on the driver side. The tires on the truck are only good for around town trips and should be replaced if you plan on daily driving it. There are also spare fuel tanks on each side of truck mounted in front of the rear tires along the frame for extra fuel range with a selector under the driver seat to switch tanks. This is a very good running clean short bed that would be good daily driver as is or paint it and make it a show truck! The truck also has a clean title! This is an awesome 66 short bed so BID TO WIN!! This truck will be sold as is where is with no warranty implied. I also reserve the right to end this auction at anytime due to the truck being for sale locally. If the truck meets reserve I will let it run until the end of the auction.

eBay Find of the Day: 1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe is showroom fresh

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

There's an ultra-rare Ford Thunderbird for sale on eBay, although it's not quite the T-Bird you're probably thinking. This is a 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, complete with a five-speed manual transmission and just a shade over 13,000 miles on the clock. The condition is said to be mint, and judging by the interior and exterior pictures, we're inclined to believe the seller. The paint is glossy and the interior looks showroom new, while the underbody is stunningly clean for a 36-year-old car.
Underhood sits a 2.3-liter, intercooled and turbocharged four-cylinder (also found in the Mustang SVO) that was producing 190 horsepower when it left the factory. Inside, the five-speed manual transmission adds to the car's rarity. The vehicle's sole owner has been as immaculate with the paperwork as he has with the rest of the car - it's all there, including brochures and other product material.
The eBay auction ends tomorrow at midnight (9:00 PM if you're on America's west coast). Bidding has reached $10,200, and there's still plenty of time to get in on this future classic. The vehicle is located in Millstone Township, NJ.

DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
