1966 F100 twin beam. Great riding and driving tuck. A show stopper that turns head wherever it goes. It has super sharp red and white exterior with red and black interior. Has a great classic engine growl..... Incredibly fun truck! Whenever I drive it, passer-bys, honk their horns and give the thumbs up!!!

Engine and front end rebuilt, V8 352", 3 on a stick upgraded to Auto (C6?), nice two tone recent paint job, reupholstered seats, new floor cover, original OEM radio AM restored for authenticity with iPhone jack (note: one speaker mono in dash), new battery, many restoration touches. Comes with original Ford instruction manual, seems to have been originally sold in Florida (from name inside original instruction manuall). From what I was told from original owner (but I do not have any documentation on this), truck has had a rebuilt front end, new rings, bearings, timing gear chain, starter, fuel pump, and more. I added the original AM radio from that period (mono one speaker in dash) with the iphone jack (Joe's Classic Car Radio added small circuit board integrated into older system!). I had work finished which includes new distributor, Weber carburator totally rebuilt, repaired emergency brake by finding missing undercarriage lever, added red seat belts to match red upholstery, replaced all fluids, and other maintenance, and it wasn't cheap. Engine starts right up. Sounds great..... (in California you are not required to to Smog, so its has great original sound!) Truck runs good. Looks like it has not been in any accidents for we saw no puddy, etc. work underside. I also added interior side panels on doors with original aluminum trim (not pictured). Truck bed looks like it was covered in black powdercoat. More pictures coming.

I did not initially restore the truck and so cannot verify all claims nor was I given any paperwork. Truck was purchased to use as a picture vehicle in some media and was driven very little in the last year, but enough to keep it well-running. For that reason, I cannot offer any in depth details as I was not part of the major restoration process. So there are no implied warranties or guarantees. Truck is sold "as is."

Buyer must pick up or arrange own transportation or hauling.

Project Ugly Horse: Part VI

Solid axle? What solid axle?
I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation.
This should not have gone this easily. Having a long and checkered history of simple projects punctuated by much wailing and gnashing of knuckles, I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation when I finally decided to lay hands on the '89 Mustang with the goal of relieving the car of its stock rear axle. Instead, it took less than a full morning's worth of work to carve the old 7.5-inch solid axle from its moorings and mock up something, well, different.

NHTSA closes Ford F-Series Super Duty steering probe without recall

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation into 2008 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups, which was originally opened last year, has now ended without a recall. NHTSA was looking into steering failures on some 336,000 trucks.
The issue rested with the steering gear - NHTSA received five complaints of failures - which was redesigned in 2005. According to the report on the matter, investigators "found evidence of broken sector shaft gear teeth and piston damage consistent with incidents of single event overload."
NHTSA investigators, however, "found no evidence of fatigue or material property defects in any of the fractures. Analysis of complaint rates by vehicle build month showed no patterns indicating potential manufacturing quality issues and no difference before and after Ford introduced design changes to the input shaft and sector shaft seals in July 2007 to address potential leak concerns," according to the report, obtained by The Detroit News.

'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia

Fri, Jan 16 2015

These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.
