I'm selling 1968 Ford F100 Custom Cab longbed converted to shortbed. Frame was sectioned and boxed professionally. Driveshaft was shortened and balanced professionally also. Then a shortbed box was installed from 1967 F100. The truck has new custom machined American Racing Torq Thrust wheels size 17x8 with 255/50-17 tires all around. The truck has tilt steering column, power steering, power disc brakes and front suspension from a 1977 F-100. Steering wheel is a leather Nardi 14 inch. The gauge cluster is from a F600 truck from the same era. All gauges work except speedometer but the Gps is what I use to gauge speed. Has a double din Kenwood stereo with Gps, Navigation, and IPod controls. Dynamat installed throughout cab. Has aftermarket cruise control and power windows. AC Unit is from Classic Air products. The engine is 360FE Big Block stroked to 410ci. There is a RV style camshaft for excellent torque and great idle qualities aswell as a slightly lumpy muscle idle. Has Long tube exhaust Headers with Magnaflow Mufflers and resonators for a quiet sound. Engine has an aluminum Edelbrock intake manifold with a Holley street avenger Carb. The transmission is NV4500 5 speed from a 2001 Dodge Ram with an Advance Adapter kit mated to the original bellhousing. This transmission was chosen to handle the torque from the big block engine and for the added economy of the 5th gear. Truck drives well and can be driven daily. Have some receipts for the work on the truck. I'm asking a fraction of what was spent to get it to this point. Still needs a few more things especially paint and bodywork. Has some rust spots on lower corners of fenders and both door lower corners. Has surface rust on bed area. Has small dent on front of hood. Windshield has a crack about 6 inches on passenger side. The windshield doesnt really bother the view since its on the very right. I will throw in an extra door and some misc parts. Unfortunately I have to sell truck to fund my other project. My loss your gain like the saying says!! Tags are up to date just transfer and drive!
Valve covers leak a little so I'm including gaskets and sealant.
NO RESERVE!! Listed locally so I reserve the right to end auction at anytime

Ford Transit Skyliner Concept is a Gulfstream for the road
Sat, 12 Apr 2014If you are afraid to fly or just want to arrive at your ultimate destination in absolute comfort, then the Ford Transit Skyliner concept might be the perfect vehicle for you. Built by Galpin Auto Sports and based on a 2015 Transit, the van is basically a private jet on wheels. It even has a touch of Transformers about it with the ability to switch between four modes by pressing a button in a smartphone app.
Based on the long wheelbase, high-roof model with 487 cubic feet of cargo space and 6 feet, 9.5 inches of interior height, the Skyliner has movable captains chairs that shift around among four modes. In theater mode, the seats turn and recline to face a 52-inch retractable movie screen with 7.2 surround sound. For business, a motorized table unfolds, and the chairs gather around it. There is a mode for tailgating where the door opens four-feet wide, and, when traveling, passengers can recline back with footrests that extend for maximum comfort.
To make the ride even plusher, there is a satellite and media server to meet your entertainment needs, and there is even a built-in bar in the back. If this Ford had a bathroom, you could live in it. Of course, you would need to hire a driver to enjoy all the amenities in the back.
Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
