 For sale here we have a fine example of what Detroit was once capable of... This 1973 F-100 is good looking, very useful, fun to drive, and gets a conversation started everywhere it goes.  I have driven this truck from Columbus, OH to El Paso, TX and back hauling two motorcycles in the back and it never missed a beat.  The engine and transmission have been professionally rebuilt; I can provide receipts for the work that was done on it.  Also installed at that time were stainless headers, high-performance starter, HVHP oil pump, new power steering pump, and a Holley 2-barrel carburetor.  The interior was  redone as well and is in very nice condition.  In addition, this truck has a "Hidden Hitch" brand frame-mounted Reese hitch, variable-rate adjustable electric trailer brake system, and 7-pin trailer connection.  With this setup and the automatic transmission it makes an excellent, comfortable tow vehicle. 

To be fair and honest, this is not a show truck.  There is some rust on the bed sides, and a little on the door frames.  It is mostly surface rust, not vast expanses of cancerous rot.  This truck spent most of its life in North Dakota, not on Ohio's salty roads.  It will be a good truck for many years just the way it is, or it would make a good candidate for restoration if you wanted to make the body perfect.  The drive train needs nothing.  The radio stopped working, so I took it out.  The aluminum trim needs to be glued back on to the sliding rear window, but nothing is missing.  Also the vinyl armrest/door handle needs to be screwed on to the driver's door; I just haven't taken the inner door skin off to do so.  Again, all the necessary parts are present.  I even have the original owner's manual and warranty ID card.

I can deliver this truck anywhere in Ohio for $0.50 per mile.  I may be able to deliver elsewhere, but please ask before assuming I will do so.  I would prefer for the buyer to pick it up in Columbus, OH, or make arrangements to have it picked up.  I can store the truck for up to 2 weeks after the auction provided that payment is made.

A $200 deposit is required via PayPal within 24 hours of the auction ending.  The balance is to be paid in cash or check prior to taking possession of the truck.  Any check must clear my bank before it goes; that is why cash is the most desirable way to complete the transaction.  I would be willing to discuss trades if you have a pre-1970 Harley-Davidson (not a Sportster.)  Otherwise, cash is king.  Bid like you mean it; only the last one counts!

Please ask any questions prior to bidding and I will do my best to answer them in a timely manner.  Good luck and Happy Bidding!

 I forgot to mention... the truck has brand new full dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers.  Sounds good, runs even better!

Ford's Troller introduces even more rugged T4 SUVs in Sao Paulo

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Bronco may be long gone from Ford dealerships back home, but down in Brazil its spirit lives on in the Troller brand. Founded independently in 1995, Ford do Brasil took over Troller in 2007 and has been teasing us with its rough-and-tumble SUVs ever since. So with the Sao Paulo Motor Show coming up, Troller has revealed this special version of the T4.
Looking even more rugged than the existing three-door sport-ute, this special T4 packs a snorkel, winch, upgraded bumpers and knobbier tires. We're not sure what to make of the "sophisticated" brown and tan paint job, but send it north and the Jeep Wrangler would have a new challenger on its hands... especially since the Toyota FJ Cruiser was discontinued.
Alongside the version seen here, Troller will also exhibit another T4 outfitted for rescue workers. Scope out initial details of both in the press release below, enclosed in both its original Portuguese and auto-translated into English.

Ford to auction Mustang Cobra Jet prototype for charity [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Prototypes developed by major automakers typically remain in said company's custody, but every once in a while, one trickles out into private hands. And that's just what we have here. Ford is donating a one-of-a-kind factory prototype for the 2014 Mustang Cobra Jet that will be auctioned off later this month by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
Powered by a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 mated to a T4 competition gearbox, this rare Cobra Jet prototype includes a wheelie bar, chromoly roll cage, Weld wheels, three-link rear suspension, racing brakes, 9-inch rear axle and more. It's painted in a unique satin orange with reflective gray striping scheme, bears the serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1 and is fully ready for NHRA competition on the drag strip.
To be offered with no reserve on Saturday, September 28, 2013, the Cobra Jet prototype's winning bidder will also receive tutelage at Roy Hill's Drag Racing School in Sophia, NC, along with tours of the Ford Product Development Center, Ford Racing headquarters and Ford Design Studios with Mustang chief engineer Dave Pericak. Scope out the video and details below for what could be the ultimate Mustang experience for a good cause.

Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift

Tue, 09 Sep 2014


Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
