THIS IS A PROJECT TRUCK. It is mostly whole, and comes with a lot of the parts needed to restore the truck and make it complete. I know very little history on it, but someone before me started a total frame-off restoration of this truck and never finished it. The cab is not the original cab, and some of the parts that come with the truck are from the original cab (which was yellow). I think the current cab is a '71 or '72. In the pictures one corner is up on a jack stand, but it has 4 good tires and wheels. 

PLEASE STUDY THE PICTURES CLOSELY AND READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY. I am trying to be as thorough as possible on the description so that you know what you are bidding on. I'm trying to highlight the good with the bad and be as honest as possible. Please use the information and pictures I'm providing to make an educated assessment, as opposed to nit-picking and sending me a message offering me some lowball offer on an outside of ebay transaction. Please don't waste your time.

CAB AND BODY:
It's been my experience that when someone is selling a "rust free" cab, it still has rust if you look closely. Aside from some spots on the passenger side floor (pictured), and very light surface rust on the underside of the floorboards (pictured), this cab is basically a rust free, original, Explorer package, factory A/C equipped cab. I peeled back all the flooring and found 1 TINY pin hole on the passenger side. Aside from that, the floor is sound. There is a little surface rust and some small paint bubbles and chipping, but it is pretty superficial. Other than neutralizing the rust, it shouldn't need any repairs. My guess is that the rust is from A/C condensation dripping on the floor. Check out the pictures, but otherwise the cab looks pretty awesome. The driver's side floor, all the cab mounts, cab corners, rocker panels, cowl, etc. are all incredibly clean and, as far as I can tell, have never been touched. It's in excellent shape.

The cab was originally an auto trans. cab, but the clutch pedal assembly and other associated brackets are included to convert it to be a manual transmission truck.

It appears that all of the cab A/C parts like ducting, condenser, controls, baffles, blower motor, and so on are present. Check the pictures.

Most of the bed is missing, but some of the braces and frame structure can be seen in pictures. Both front fenders and hood are missing. The grill has been sandblasted, but was never painted. The bare metal rusted slightly after sandblasting, but the grill is in excellent condition. It has no damage that I can find, and both headlight buckets and chrome mouldings are present.

The original cab driver's door is still on the truck because that's where the VIN tag is.

The mirrors pictured on the cab are NOT included.

CHASSIS AND DRIVETRAIN:
The frame has all been stripped, primed, and painted black (it has a few nicks and scratches). The axles have also received the same treatment. All of the brake lines, emergency brake cable assembly, brakes shoes and hardware, u-joints, drive shafts (rear is damaged, see picture), leaf spring bushings, body mounts (one is missing), radius arm bushings, as well as plenty more misc. parts ARE ALL BRAND NEW. It looks like pretty much every little spring, clip, piece of linkage, etc., was either replaced with a brand new unit or worked fine and was cleaned up and painted. The person who started the restoration looks like they tended to lean toward buying a brand new part instead of reconditioning an old one.
  • front axle is Dana 44 with lockouts (matching gears for rear)
  • rear axle is Ford 9" with 3.73 gears. NOTE: It appears to have some sort of traction device- either a locker or limited slip. When I turned a sharp corner while towing it on a dolly, one tire would hop or chirp a little. When you jack up the rear end and spin one tire, both turn the same way freely, which I believe means it's NOT an open diff. 
  • transfer case is a Dana 21
  • transmission is a 4 speed manual New Process. I'm guessing a 435, but I don't know.
  • the truck originally had a 300 straight six, but it is gone
  • brakes are 4 wheel drums

THE INCIDENT:
The person I bought this truck from forgot to tighten all the lug nuts and, as I was towing the truck home on a dolly, the driver's side rear wheel parted ways with the truck. The wheel and brake drum flew off into the night never to be seen again. Consequently, the backing plate on the axle has some minor damage from dragging (pictured), which can easily be heated and bent back. As a result, that brake drum is missing and one wheel and tire is different than the other 3. The wheel studs are okay, and other than the edges of the brake shoes being a little rough, everything else appears to be fine and intact. I put a spare on and made the rest of the trip home with no problem.

PARTS:
Look at the pictures. If it was worth mentioning, I've addressed it or included it in the pictures. If it's not pictured, either it's too minor to mention or it's one of the parts that the truck is missing. That said, there are several boxes of little parts like knobs and latches and screws and clips and springs from the truck that go with it.

THIS IS A PROJECT TRUCK AND SOLD AS IS WITH NO WARRANTEE. I have described and pictured the truck and parts to the best of my abilities. If you have any questions, please ask. Since the truck does not run and drive, and I'm not able to test each part, I cannot guarantee that every single part on the truck is in working order. Based on the info I had when I purchased it, and by the amount of work and detail that the previous owner put into it when starting the restoration, I believe most, if not all parts on the truck and sold with the truck are functional. But, as I mentioned, I cannot and will not guarantee anything because I am unable to do so. Please bid accordingly.

PURCHASE, PICK-UP, AND PAYMENT:
LOCAL PICK-UP ONLY. I WILL NOT SHIP THIS TRUCK. If you want to have a carrier or other party pick up the truck, you may, but that is 100% your responsibility. THE TRUCK MUST BE PICKED UP WITHIN 7 CALENDAR DAYS OF THE SALE. It is located at a residence which is accessible with a tow truck, pickup and trailer, or flatbed tow truck. No semi access. The truck has 4 tires and wheels and rolls freely. Please plan your transport accordingly before purchasing.

A Paypal deposit of $500 dollars is due within 24 hours of purchase, and the remaining balance is due in full at or before time of pick-up in cash or cashiers check ONLY. I have a clean title, with no leins, in my name, in hand. After I have receive full payment, and at the time of pick-up, it's all yours.

2015 will be the biggest year ever for cars at CES

Fri, Jan 2 2015

Like the SEMA Show, major automakers are paying increasing attention to the CES, with 2015 expected to be one of the most auto focused yet. Ford, Volkswagen, Toyota, General Motors, Hyundai, Mazda, Audi, BMW and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will all be in attendance when CES 2015 kicks off next week, taking up a record-breaking 165,000 square feet of space at the Las Vegas Convention Center. "We've come a long way from a single car on a carpet," Ford's Alan Hall told Bloomberg. Unlike SEMA, or a more traditional auto show, like the upcoming festivities in Detroit, CES doesn't necessarily focus on entire cars or the way they perform, but on the way our technology will interact with vehicles, and in how those vehicles will deliver information to drivers. "CES has become a major launch point for a lot of the big automakers," IHS tech analyst Mark Boyadjis told Bloomberg. "CES is a way for them to get on a global stage for technology." As for what kind of wares automakers will trot out in Las Vegas, we already know that BMW will show off an autonomous i3 electric car that can navigate its way through a multistory car park and can be hailed via a smartwatch app. According to Bloomberg, Hyundai will show off its own smartwatch app for the Genesis sedan, while Audi and Mercedes-Benz will show off autonomous vehicles next week. Automakers won't be the only companies looking to capitalize on CES. Tech firms, like chipmaker Nvidia, are becoming increasingly involved in the automotive game and will be in town showing their wares off to OEMs. "Two years ago, our booth would have been filled with PCs and people playing video games," Danny Shapiro, Nvidia's senior director for automotive business, told Bloomberg. "This year we made a strategic decision to shift the focus of the booth on automotive and de-prioritize some of the other things." Needless to say, you can expect to see a lot of news out of Las Vegas come next week. Stay tuned.

What next for Alan Mulally?

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

Alan Mulally has emerged as a hero when it comes to American manufacturing. He came to Ford in 2006 after serving as head of Boeing's commercial aircraft division, streamlined operations, sold off the costly elements of its Premier Automotive Group and saved Ford from having to be bailed out by the federal government like its cross-town rivals Chrysler and General Motors did. But as we reported mere days ago, he's widely expected to step down from the chief executive's office at Ford shortly.
So what's next for one of the most successful executives in the business? Hard to say, but don't expect Mulally to disappear into retirement. Though he didn't ultimately take the top job at Microsoft, industry insiders expect to see him in another influential position - likely as a board director or even chairman of another company. (We say "another company" and not Ford because while Bill Ford may have stepped aside as CEO to bring Mulally on board in the first place, we don't see him giving up his chairmanship of the board also.)
Mulally has likely already lined up his next move, and could either announce what that move will be as soon as Ford confirms Mark Fields as his successor, or could wait awhile. Insiders speculate that he could leverage his transportation and aerospace experience into a position at General Electric or a major airline, his manufacturing expertise to benefit a company like Procter & Gamble or his management skills at a consultancy firm.

Ford readying 2015 F-150 drift truck for SEMA

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Between the Mustangs you'd find in Formula D and the Fiestas in the Global and World rallycross championships, there's no shortage of Ford drift cars on the scene. But at the upcoming SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the Blue Oval automaker intends to show off a different kind of drift machine.
Created in collaboration with driftmeister Vaughn Gittin, Jr., this custom F-150 has been designed for "on- and off-road capabilities, as well as drifting and jumping." It's got a suspension with components from Kibbetech King and Air Lift Performance to give it 12 inches of travel and comes packed with 5 Recaro seats. Other details remain limited, but if the rendering above is anything to go by, it ought to be pretty awesome.
Alongside the Gittin truck, Ford will also be showcasing another F-150 designed together with freestyle motorcross rider Brian Deegan, packing the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine and a long list of enhancements. Between these two trucks, Ford hopes to extend its winning streak for the Hottest Truck award that it's taken four years running now. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
