1966 Ford F100 Custom Cab Swb Pickup on 2040-cars
Flora, Mississippi, United States
I have a 1966 Ford F100 Custom Cab short wheel base project truck. It has a solid body with some rust in the usual places such as front of bed, lower radiator support, driver side inner cab corner and floor pan. The truck is a Ford factory paint code "08" Springtime yellow vehicle. The engine is a good running 351windsor small block. The transmission is a Ford aod. It will not shift out of 1st gear and will need to be rebuilt or replaced. The truck can be a driver once the transmission is taken care of. The radiator is a later model cross flow type. It has a remanufactured brake master cylinder. The headlights, tail lights, and hazard signals work. The turn signals were working but recently quit blinking. It may need a new fuse or? The windshield is cracked. The aluminum side mouldings are ok for a driver but should be restored or replaced if it is intended for anything nicer. I have the title for the truck. I set a low reasonable reserve. I need to sell this truck so I can finish another project. Serious bidders should contact me so I can email more pictures and discuss the vehicle better. I have another 1966 F100 swb parts truck with a factory 352 V8. 3spd manual trans. I had intended to put the drivetrain into the yellow truck. The drivetrain will be available for purchase to the winning bidder of this auction.
Thanks for looking! |

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
NHTSA closes investigations into Ford Taurus, Hyundai Santa Fe
Wed, 03 Jul 2013Ford and Hyundai are out from under the scrutinizing eyes of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration after the government agency said it was closing investigations against both automakers over vehicle safety concerns.
Ford was being investigated for reported damaged speed control cables on Ford Taurus (shown above) and Mercury Sable models, both built between 2000 and 2003. Vehicles with the company's Duratec engines allegedly failed to allow owners to brake as expected. Owners lodged 100 complaints and were involved in five accidents, according to NHTSA records. The American automaker responded to the reports, and on June 21 of this year, said that it would inspect and repair all affected vehicles, regardless of the mileage.
Hyundai was under investigation for a reported loose fastener on the steering shaft of its 2011 Santa Fe (shown in the gallery below). After NHTSA launched its inquiry, the Korean automaker responded with its own investigation that yielded four affected vehicles. Following the inspection of 680 vehicles at its assembly plant, Hyundai said the issue was due to employee error and that no further defects have been found.
Ford, GM to collaborate on 9- and 10-speed transmissions
Mon, 15 Apr 2013Back in October, there were reports that General Motors and Ford Motor Company were hard at work co-developing new nine- and ten-speed automatic transmissions, and now both automakers have confirmed this joint operation. While there are no specific vehicles mentioned to receive either transmission, a collaborative press release issued by GM and Ford mention that the transmission will be designed for front- and rear-wheel-drive cars, crossovers, trucks and SUVs.
These aren't the first powertrain components developed jointly between these cross-town rivals, either. The six-speed automatic currently used in vehicles like the Ford Edge, Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Equinox was engineered in a similar fashion. As is the case with this existing transmission, both automakers will assist in the design, development and testing of the new transmissions, but each will build its own units in its own factories. Scroll down for the official press release.
