GEORGIA PEACH!!!!!

 

SOLID SOUTHERN V-8 SHORT BED TRUCK….PERFECT TO MAKE A STREET ROD/CRUISER!!!!

 

1968 FORD F-100 RANGER

SHORT BED

 

Truck sold new in Blue Ridge, Georgia and was owned by the same family until December 2013 (45 years).

 

Original unrestored 1968 Ford F100 Ranger in great condition. Truck has 113,134 miles on original 360 2bbl v-8 and automatic transmission. Engine runs great, and transmission shifts well.

 

Truck has recent tune up including rebuilt carb, points and condenser, plugs and wires. Truck also has new battery and 4 new tires. Body is in great shape - body panels are straight and fit well. Doors function wonderfully and shut with a solid 'click'. Bed is solid with some light surface rust.

 

There is some damage to driver front hood/headlight bezel/fender where owner ran into a column while parking in their garage ...what a shame because the rest of the truck is amazingly straight.

 

Rust: the cab support at the rear of the cab (drivers side) has some rust, as do the cab corners behind the lower body trim.

 

Steering is tight, and truck cruises straight down the road, even when you take your hand off the wheel.

 

Interior is complete and in good shape for its age. Seat cover is torn on drivers side, carpet is 45 years old. Visors and Headliner are in good shape.

 

Original Radio still in place. Dash pad has crack in middle. Steering wheel is almost perfect - has 1 small crack at base of the horn ring.

 

Dome light still works when you open the door, so does the bed light! Gas gauge not currently working. Has exhaust leak on passenger side.

 

Truck was built in January 1968 at Ontario, Canada and sent to Atlanta, Georgia (DSO);

 the factory color was Harbor Blue.

 

This 1968 Ford Truck has numbers matching motor (360 V-8) and 3 speed automatic transmission.  The truck came with manual steering and manual brakes.  The undercarriage is in good shape, surface rust only.  The truck has been in northwest Georgia its whole life.

 

This truck is an excellent candidate for a customized truck that needs little body work and little mechanical work.

 

Please ask any questions for more information and if needed, more pictures.  This is a 45 year old truck that has never been restored.  It has very solid original sheet metal.  The paint has faded a good bit, but the truck is very straight and has great gaps.

 

Inspections are welcome, just give me a call or email!

Ford issues six recalls covering 101,000 vehicles for multiple issues

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Ford is announcing six separate recalls for a variety of issues affecting a dozen models and a total of 100,610 vehicles in North America. However, according to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker, "None of them have caused accidents or injuries." Half of them cover fewer than 1,000 cars.
The largest recall covers 92,022 North American examples (about 83,250 in the US) of some models of the Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, Ford Interceptor, Flex and Lincoln MKT from the 2013 and 2014 model years; the 2012-2014 Edge and the 2014 Lincoln MKX. All of them have a potential issue with the halfshaft on the right side that might not be fully seated and could move outward over time. If it shifts too far, the models may no longer be able to drive, and the condition could also allow the vehicles to roll away, even when in Park. Dealers will inspect the shaft to make sure it's seated and will replace the part if necessary.
The next-largest recall covers 5,264 North American examples (4,867 in the US) of the Ford F59 Commercial Stripped Chassis from the 2011-2014 model years. It's possible that an electrical junction box can corrode in areas with salty roads and short circuit. The problem could potentially cause a fire. Dealers will replace the box with an improved design.

Ford mulling EcoSport for US? [w/poll]

Mon, 03 Jun 2013

"We certainly have that ability. We're studying it very, very closely." Those are the words of Jim Farley, global head of sales, marketing, service at Ford. The investigation Farley is referring to is the possibility of selling the company's new EcoSport crossover in America.
The diminutive Fiesta-based EcoSport was developed for emerging markets like Brazil and, more recently, China, but it apparently may have a future in the States, where it would form a new entry-level rung below the Escape in Ford's already robust crossover stable. Ford has big plans for its tiny CUV - Farley tells Automotive News that the EcoSport is only available in 10 countries right now, but by 2017, its distribution will have mushroomed to 62 countries. At the time the second-generation model launched at the 2012 Beijing Motor Show as a 2013 model, Ford said the EcoSport would eventually be sold in nearly 100 markets worldwide.
The Brazilian- and Indian-assembled EcoSport is available with a variety of gasoline-powered engines, but the 1.0-liter, three-cylinder EcoBoost giving 118 horsepower and 125 pound-feet of torque would seem to be the powertrain of choice for America, as it was recently confirmed for the stateside 2014 Fiesta.

China takes lead as GM's No. 1 market

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

It's happened. General Motors' biggest vehicle market - at least in terms of new model sales - is China. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, GM and its various Chinese joint venture operations enjoyed a 10.6-percent sales increase in the first half of 2013, selling almost 1.6 million units in the market. That puts GM China about 200,000 units ahead of its US sales totals over the same period - this, despite indicators that the communist nation's economy is losing momentum.
TDB notes that like GM, rival Ford has also enjoyed a robust 2013 in China thus far, with its sales up a whopping 47 percent to 407,721 units sold - 75,254 of them in June alone. Between the two US automakers, passenger car sales for the first half of 2013 are up around 14 percent, well ahead of the rest of the industry's 10-percent growth estimates for the market. Some of the sales growth may come as a result of an overall anti-Japan sentiment in China, though the American brands have long outsold their Japanese counterparts in the country.
By The General's own predictions, China will only continue to grow in sales importance. The company has designs on selling over five million cars a year in the market before the end of the decade, a total that figures to dramatically widen the gap versus its US totals - even if America's auto market makes a full recovery to the the salad days of over 17-million units a year.
