1968 Ford F-100 Custom Cab A/c Automatic Short Bed 360 V8 78,649 Original Miles on 2040-cars
Casa Grande, Arizona, United States

This truck was purchased new in Coolidge AZ in 1968 and remained there. The rear bumper still has the original Dealership sticker on it. It says Alexander Auto Sales Coolidge AZ. The original owner sold this to his friend right before his death seven years ago.His friend was also an older gentleman and did not drive the truck. His family started it and took it for a few rides just to keep the battery charged and the gas fresh. This truck has 78,649 original miles and has a Box A title. It has the 360 V8 with Automatic transmission. It's a short bed with Custom Cab. It has the dealer installed A/C (no such thing as factory a/c in 68) The A/C fan blows good and hard but the compressor does not engage I'm sure it's low on freon. But the compressor turns by hand and feel good. Would be best to convert to the 134 anyways. If I can get my hands on some R12 I'll charge it and update the listing. The original owners manual is still in the glove box. The jack is still mounted under the hood and the jack handle is still behind the seat. The undercarriage looks the same as when it rolled off of the assembly line in 1968. The floor mat is even original. Yes there are some dings and small dents but for a 46 year old truck I'm positive you will never find another truck this rust free and with such low mileage. The tires are weathered and will need to be replace. Those are the original hubcaps. I'm sure i'm forgetting a lot so feel free to email with any questions or send me your phone number or I will send you mine. Will be posting a link to Youtube so you can hear it running and get a better look. Again I seriously doubt you will ever fine another truck in as original condition as this one.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters
Sun, 28 Sep 2014The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.
Ford builds one-off 50th anniversary Mustang Convertible for charity
Thu, 08 May 2014At the New York Auto Show this year, Ford revealed a special-edition Mustang to honor the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary. Only 1,964 highly symbolic examples will be made, all of them fixed-roof coupes. But the Blue Oval automaker has just announced that it's also building a single 50 Years edition convertible that it will raffled off for charity.
The first production example of the new Mustang Convertible to roll off the line this fall, this one-off will pack many of the features on the 50 Years coupe, including its white paintjob, chrome trim, aluminum dashboard, two-tone upholstery, contrast stitching, special 19-inch wheels and special-edition badging throughout.
This unique cabrio will also be fitted with a special performance pack including Pirelli PZero rubber, Brembo brakes and a limited-slip differential to help get the 420 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque from the 5.0-liter V8 through the six-speed manual transmission and down to the road. It'll also feature a serial plaque with the number 0001 of 0001 and chairman Bill Ford's signature.
IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
