  I'm listing this 1974 F100 for a close friend. I'll describe the truck as best I can,and let the pictures tell most of the story. This F100 would be an excellent base for restoration or to street rod.The truck has 19761 miles showing on the odometer,pretty sure that is NOT accurate,or at least is 119,761. It has a 302 v-8 that runs good and doesn't smoke,but has 3 small oil leaks. The transmission engages,shifts and pulls perfectly and the differential is smooth and tight.All of the gauge's as well as the dash and interior lights are in place and work as they should. The truck has good tire's @60% tread or better and the brakes work fine,save a VERY slight pedal pulse,probably from front rotors needing turned. The exterior overall is good for a vehicle of this age,with the dings and scratches you would expect to find. The drivers door is missing the aluminum trim and the left fender is missing the f100 emblem. Theres rust in the floorpans next to each door,and surface rust in the bed and small place on the body.The doors and rockers are solid. The seat has tears and needs recovered,the carpet has wear as does the dash cover,but you would expect this in a truck of this age. The overview would be a solid truck to use for reliable transportation or work,or a great start for a hot rod or restoration project.  Vehicles of this age do not require a title in Georgia,so this truck is being sold with a bill of sale only. If you need this notarized we can do this as well,but definately check the laws where you intend to register the vehicle as they differ vastly from region to region. I'm sure if your area required a state title,then a bonded title could be obtained,but this will be the responsibility of the buy. If your going to need shipping then we will assist you however we can,but all arrangements and expenses are on the winning bidder. Feel free to inbox me with any questions or concerns,I'll try to answer prompty and accurately. If something arises that I can't handle I'll put you in touch with the owner directly,he can answer anything you'll need to know.Thanks for looking and good luck!

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.

Ford recalls 382k vehicles across six campaigns

Wed, Sep 30 2015

Ford needs to repair a total of 381,633 vehicles in North America across six newly announced campaigns, including five safety recalls and one compliance recall. By far the largest of these campaigns covers the 342,271 examples of the 1998-2003 Windstar to double check an earlier recall repair. Among these, 283,413 are in the US and 58,858 are in Canada. The combination of corrosion and stress can cause cracks in the rear axle and eventually lead to the part to snap completely. The company reports a small number of accidents might be connected to this, but there are no injuries. The minivans were recalled for this issue back in 2010, and it was investigated by NHTSA. According to Ford's latest announcement, the reinforcement brackets on some of these models might not have been installed correctly. This time, dealers will perform an inspection. Minivans with incorrectly installed brackets will get a new rear axle. The rest of the owners will be offered a deal to replace the part at a reduced cost. The next largest campaign covers 36,857 examples of the 2015 F-150 to fix a problem with the adaptive cruise control. Specifically, there are 33,481 affected trucks in the US, and 3,376 in Canada. According to Ford, "when passing a large, highly reflective truck" the radar in the system can misidentify a semi as being in the same lane as the pickup. The collision warning system would then activate, slowing the F-150. There's one report of an accident with this happening but no injuries. The fix is simply an update to the adaptive cruise control module software. Ford also has a recall for 1,477 examples of its 2016 F-53 and F-59 stripped chassis models, and they're all located in the US. A manufacturing issue might allow the trucks to shift into reverse without the driver first applying the brakes. There are no reports of any accidents from this, though. To repair the problem, the models get a new transmission shift control bracket and an adjustment to the shift cable. The Blue Oval's safety compliance recall covers 708 examples of the 2016 Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, including 658 of them in the US, 28 in Canada, and 22 in Mexico. On these models, a manufacturing problem with the fuel tank could allow it to crack in a crash, which isn't allowed under federal rules. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires. The fix will be a new fuel tank for all of them. The company is also repairing 251 units of the 2015 Taurus and Lincoln MKS, plus the 2016 Explorer.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
