You are looking at a 1971 ford f100 long bed with a 390 cubic inch motor with less than 15,000 miles on a rebuild built by advanced engine machine in salina. The transmission is a 4 speed manual. This truck is extremely reliable, I drove it every day for the first six months of ownership with no problems and also took it on long trips a couple times to Kansas City which is over 200 miles round trip. I bought this truck 2 years ago from a friend that restored the truck roughly 5 years ago. He had the 390 rebuilt with a mild cam and flat top pistons not sure on all the details but it runs great with plenty of power. The motor is painted grabber green which I don't like. The body is fairly straight but it's not a show truck. It has some scratches and small dents and minor signs of rust starting to show. It has tented windows that have some signs of wear seats are from a newer truck with a middle console. Brakes work but need some attention. Gauges on dash stopped working recently after a car wash. The truck always starts right up. This would be a great antique for joy rides or a daily driver or something to tinker with on the weekends. I know my friend invested over $5000 in this trucks restoration but I am willing to take a loss so I have the reserve set extremely low.


PROS
New windshield and rubber
Fresh 390 cubic inch motor
New radiator
Bad ass antique weekend cruiser 

CONS
Brakes need attention
No tailgate
Fuel tank is in the bed instead of under
Gauges don't work

Autocar pits Formula Ford against Germany's finest

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford has quite the racing pedigree, but usually, its racers are relegated to the track. Not the new Formula Ford EcoBoost, though. It's a turbocharged, open-wheeled racer complete with a 200-horsepower, 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine... and it's legal on the roads of the UK.
That's stressed in this video from Autocar, with the mag going so far as to show the car's tax disc and license plates. Being a road-legal offering, it's tempting to see just how well an open-wheeler that delivers racecar-like performance while also netting over 100 miles per gallon (assume this is on the British cycle, for obvious reasons) stacks up against modern performance cars.
Autocar lined up the Formula Ford against an Audi R8 V10, a BMW M6 Gran Coupe and a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG in a number of situations to see which would come out on top. Take a look below for the full video.

Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.

Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.
