1966 Ford F-100 Short Bed with 390 cubic V8 the original manual floor shift. I have a clear title in my name. This is a running, driving, Short Bed Ford Pickup that runs good, shifts smoothly, and stops good. The engine sounds good and has good oil pressure. Please look closely at all of the photos. I have super-sized the photos to assist in evaluating my truck's condition. I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting. If you have any questions, please give me a call. My home phone, which is still attached to my kitchen wall, is (801) 745-0599. The reserve is substantially less than the truck's value. I'm restoring a 1959 Thunderbird and I need the funds for this project. The original owner told me that the 390V8 engine was the original engine in the truck. The VIN number indicates that it was a V8, but doesn't specify if it was originally a 390. From my research, I found that in late 1966 Ford started using 390 V8s in these trucks, but I'm not sure if the engine is "number matching." In either case, it is a good running 390 that sounds and runs good. There are after-market gauges that work properly attached to the dash under the radio. It has an aftermarket JVC stereo with all of the paper work in the glove box. It has almost new tires. It comes with a spare chrome front bumper, a spare passenger's side fender, extra headlight bezels, and a period correct automatic transmission. Please look at the photos of the spare parts. Everything shown in the photos comes with the truck.

It is a good, 48 year old, truck, but it does have some issues. With this in mind, I will list in detail the negative aspects of my truck. 1. There is rust in the floors. The body and frame are in good shape, but the floors need work. I have been driving it as it is, but I would recommend correcting the floors. 2. There is a rust spot on the front of the hood. Again, please look closely at the photos. 3. The interior is in useable condition, but needs a good cleaning. Under the current seat covers are the original seat covers that are in useable condition. The headliner is in place, but also needs a good cleaning. 3. There are a couple of small dents in the front passenger's side fender. I have collected spare parts for the truck and there is a solid passenger's side fender that comes with it.

A $500.00 PayPal deposit is required within 24 hours of the auction closing. If you don't have a PayPal account, please give me a call to work out arrangements. If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks in your Ebay feedback score please email me or give me a call. My phone number is listed above. I want this to be a good, straightforward, auction. Please check my ebay feedback. I highly value by reputation on Ebay and, as I mentioned, I want the new owner to be satisfied with my truck.

In response to a question from an Ebay member, Yes, this truck can be driven anywhere. It has a new battery, new, professionally installed, dual exhaust pipes and mufflers, as well as almost new tires.

Watch Piquet and Mansell bend some sheetmetal in Ford Fusion GP

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

As we told you about before, there were four episodes planned for the Ford Fusion GP campaign in Brazil, and the whole series has now run its course. The Ford ads pit Brazilian Formula One driver Nelson Piquet against English F1 pilot Nigel Mansell driving the new Fusion, the two coming together again after their partnership at the Williams F1 team ended in a miserable state more than 20 years ago.
They're lined up for you below, in reverse chronological order. You should watch number three first, though, as it adds a bit more spice to the NASCAR action in the fourth.

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.

Ford stops JV work In Russia, Stellantis donates to Ukrainian refugees

Wed, Mar 2 2022

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is obviously killing civilians and destroying infrastructure throughout the country. ItÂ’s also affecting the auto industry there and across wider Europe, from the wiring harnesses we mentioned earlier today to new announcements from Ford and Stellantis. And thereÂ’s reason to think in bigger terms than todayÂ’s business deals, since there are massive lithium deposits in the ground in Ukraine. What this means for raw materials for future electric vehicles canÂ’t yet be determined, but itÂ’s worth thinking about as the world reacts to RussiaÂ’s actions. Following decisions by Apple and other major automakers to stop or otherwise curtail activities in Russia, Ford announced that it will suspend all of its joint venture operations in Russia, effective immediately, until further notice. Â“As part of the global community, Ford is deeply concerned about the invasion of Ukraine and the resultant threats to peace and stability,Â” the company said in a statement. Â“The situation has compelled us to reassess our operations in Russia. In recent years, Ford has significantly wound down its Russian operations, which now focus exclusively on commercial van manufacturing and Russian sales through a minority interest in the Sollers Ford joint venture.Â” Even though Stellantis only has 71 employees based in Ukraine, it announced today it will donate 1 million euros (around $1.1 million U.S.) to Ukrainian refugees and civilians. StellantisÂ’ head of operations in Ukraine will help the automaker work with local non-governmental organizations that are supporting Ukrainians to get the funds where they need to go. Â“Stellantis condemns violence and aggression and, in this time of unprecedented pain, our priority is the health and safety of our Ukrainian employees and families,Â” Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said in a statement. Â“An aggression that shook a world order, already unsettled by uncertainty, has been launched. The Stellantis community, made of 170 nationalities, looks with dismay as civilians flee the country. Even if the scale of casualties is not yet apparent, the human toll will be unbearable.Â” As of this morning, Stellantis said all of its 71 employees there were safe. This is not a normal line to read in automotive press releases, but this is not a normal time.
