1969 Ford Truck – Ranger

I have an antiquity company in the middle of Texas. We specialize in fine antiques and collectibles.  Once in a while my customers turn in a classic automobile or motorcycle.

This is one of those items:

 

 

This absolutely beautiful truck belonged to a very dear friend who just wanted to restore it as a tribute to his late father.  The truck has a straight six engine (rebuilt) with an automatic transmission.  Almost everything in the truck, except a few little items, is new with receipts.  Here are just some of the items that he fixed/replaced in just the past two - three years, of course the truck was parked at his home and he rarely drove it:

$300.00 Gas Tank (new) from LMC Truck Magazine

Over $1000 in New carburetor, intake manifold and header

 

 

In the last 4 months the truck received a $1,500.00 paint job, a $217.70 original bench seat cover, and also a new carpet was installed, and new dashes cover.

 

 When we got the truck it had been sitting for about 6 months, so we sent it out and a mechanic drained the gas tank, rebuilt the carburetor, and changed the oil.  The truck runs fantastic.  It is a Texas truck with only one previous owner.  It comes with a clear Texas title and all the receipts.  The truck has a very reasonable reserve due to a lack of space.

 

Even thought over $10,000 has been spent on the truck’s restoration, please remember that this is not a 100 point car/truck.

 

It is missing a small center cap in the middle of the steering wheel, and the instrument glass is a little bit foggy, but overall most of the work has been done and it only needs a new owner to drive and enjoy it.

 

All the inspections must be done before the auction closes.

Remember that this classic truck is 46 years old.  Please remember that things always look better in pictures.  So you are more than welcome to come see it in person.

 

Your bid is your contract.  Please place bids only if you are serious about buying the item. If you are the winning bid, you are entering into a legal binding contract to purchase the item.

 

We require a $300 non-refundable deposit immediately after the bidding closes and the remaining balance within a week.  Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. The truck will be sold as is, with no warranty or guarantee.

We reserve the right to cancel any bid for excessive negative feedback.  And I may also advertise it locally.

Ford turns Navistar from truck business customer to rival

Mon, 19 May 2014

There is a showdown brewing in the medium-duty truck segment next year as Ford prepares to launch its all-new, in-house engineered 2016 F-650 and F-750. It finally marks the end of the Blue Diamond joint venture between Ford and Navistar and, making the two entities direct competitors instead of partners.
Ford announced the end of the joint venture in an investor report in 2011, but it didn't reveal the new F-650 and F-750 until the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN, in March. Unlike the current, Mexican-built models, the new generation will be built in Avon Lake, OH, starting in mid-2015.
The challenge from Ford comes during a rough patch for Navistar. The company had a $248 million loss in the first quarter, according to The Wall Street Journal, and its medium-duty truck market share is currently down to 26 percent, from 36 percent in 2011. Building the previous-generation Fords brought in about $400 million a year to Navistar, according to the WSJ. To take on its former partner, Navistar plans to offer its International brand of medium-duty vehicles with more engine and transmission options to customers. It even struck a deal with Cummins to put its diesels in some of the models.

EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Recently, the finance arm of PSA/Peugeot-Citroën was in such debt trouble that it was pricing itself out of the car loan market. The rates it was paying to service its debt, which was rated one step above junk, were so high that it was forced to charge car-buying customers higher rates than they could find elsewhere. This was adding to Peugeot's already impressive woes by sending revenue out the door to competitors.
Two months ago a deal was worked out with the French government whereby the state would provide 7 billion euro ($9 billion USD) in bonds to guarantee the finance arm's loans. The French government could nominate someone to join the Peugeot board, Peugeot would guarantee more French jobs, and on top of that deal, other banks would provide non-guaranteed loans. The government would take no equity stake in the car company.
Although not yet finalized, the arrangement is meant to create some breathing room for Peugeot Finance to lower its interest rates for customers, and a government-nominated board member, Louis Gallois, was recently named to Peugeot's supervisory board. The arrangement was also openly questioned by at least three competitors: Ford, Renault - which is 15-percent owned by the French government after it received state aid - and the German state of Lower Saxony, itself a 15-percent shareholder in Volkswagen.

Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]

Thu, 27 Mar 2014

Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.
