 LAST BIDDER WILL OWN THIS AWSOME FORD F100

"NO RESERVE" 

  I purchased this cool little truck a couple of months ago from a friend in North Carolina. He gave me such a good price I was able to spend a little time and money on it and now its time for someone to take over and finish her out to your taste and personality. The previous owner started the project with the removal of the original strait six motor and 3sp trans and replaced it with a recently freshened 351W and a 5 speed trans. He installed a new clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing and had a pretty good start on having a nice little street truck. This is where he ran out of time and motivation and since the truck was up and running he put it away for later. So now I come into the picture and after some negotiation I purchased the truck. The first thing I did is drive it and put it on the lift for a through inspection. The truck was in good shape and the 351W ran fine which is fitted with a Weiand intake, Summit racing 750cfm carb and headers. The T-5 trans worked well and the paint and body was ok with some chips and nicks but overall nice. So I spent most of my time and money on the interior, suspension, brakes, exhaust and just general clean-up. A list of new parts and general service items are listed below and I have receipts for all.

  • fuel tank and lines
  • 3 core Champion aluminum radiator and flex fan
  • heater core
  • 2.5 inch dual exhaust from headers to 3 inch chrome tips
  • dist cap, rotor, points and condensor
  • belt and hoses
  • thermostat and housing
  • valve cover gaskets
  • battery and hold down
  • oil, filter, and air filter
  • molded carpet, dash pad, arm rests, door weather strips, headliner and seal plates
  • checked front suspension and lubed
  • new front brakes and wheel cylinders (rear almost new)
  • shifter boot

  So now we get to what still needs to be done to make this cool little truck better with the help of the new owner. In my inspection of the underside I found some repairs in the floor pans and some much needed repairs still needed to the cab towers where the cab bolts to the frame. I have bought the replacement cab towers for the new owner to install and go with the truck. All other cab and bed mounts are in good condition. All the front suspension is in good shape with a little play in the manual steering box but my friend had already purchased a used bendix power steering unit and a new king pin replacement kit that go with the truck along with the original body trim and the original radiator. All other areas of the chassis, body, frame and suspension look to be in good shape and very road worthy. I have driven the truck to work and back for a couple of days and it runs and drives the way it should. All the lights and turn signals work properly. The gauges are aftermarket for oil pressure, water temp and rpm's. The oil pressure at start up is 50psi and stays between 25psi and 35psi while driving. The temp has never gone above 190 because of the addition of the new radiator and flex fan. The tires are BFG's and have less than 500 miles on them. I have enjoyed working on this truck and welcome any and all questions you have and can provide many more pictures if needed. I offer this vehicle with no warranties written or implied but if you feel that I have deceived you in any way in this description I will refund your deposit minus any fuel cost if I deliver and with no negative feedback. The pictures should tell the story and again, ask questions. I can deliver the truck anywhere in the lower 48 for $1.25 per loaded mile on an open trailer or $1.50 per loaded mile for enclosed. I have the truck for sale locally and will listen to any fair offers or trades and reserve the right to end the No Reserve auction at any time so don't wait til the last minute to bid.

Happy bidding

The USPS needs 180,000 new delivery vehicles, automakers gearing up to bid

Wed, Feb 18 2015

Winning the New York City Taxi of Tomorrow tender was a huge prize for Nissan, even though the company is still working through the process of claiming its prize. The United States Postal Service has begun the process to take bids for a new delivery vehicle to replace the all-too-familiar Grumman Long Life Vehicle, and that will be a much larger plum for the automaker who wins it, perhaps worth more than six billion dollars. The Grumman LLV is an aluminum body covering a Chevrolet S-10 pickup chassis and General Motors' Iron Duke four-cylinder engine. The USPS bought them from 1987 to 1994, and the 163,000 of them still in service are a monumental drain on postal resources: they get roughly ten miles to the gallon instead of the quoted 16 mpg, drink up more than $530 million in fuel each year, and their constant repair needs like the balky sliding door and leaky windshields have led the service to increase the annual maintenance budget from $100 million to $500 million. A seat belt is about as modern as it gets for safety technology, and the USPS says that assuming things stay the same, it can't afford to run them beyond 2017. Last year it put out two triage requests for proposals seeking 10,000 new chassis and drivetrains for the Grumman and 10,000 new vehicles. The LLV is also too small for the modern mail system in which package delivery is growing and letter delivery is declining. The service says it doesn't have a fixed idea of the ideal "next-generation delivery vehicles," but it listed a number of requirements in its initial request and is open to any proposal. Carriers have some suggestions, though, saying they want better cupholders, sun visors that they can stuff letters behind, a driver's compartment free of slits that can swallow mail, and a backup camera. The request for information sent to automakers pegs the tender at 180,000 vehicles that would cost between $25,000 and $35,000 apiece, and it will hold a conference on February 18 to answer questions about the contract. GM is the only domestic maker to avow an interest, while Ford and Fiat-Chrysler have remained cagey. Yet with a possible $6.3 billion up for grabs and some new vans for sale that would be advertised on every block in the country, we have a feeling everyone will be listening closely come February 18. We also have a feeling the LeMons series is going to be flooded with Grummans come 2017. News Source: Wall Street Journal, Automotive News - sub.

2015 Ford F-150 to get up to 26 miles per gallon

Fri, Nov 21 2014

The 2015 Ford F-150 is one of the most important US vehicle debuts in years, be it in the pickup segment or the entire marketplace. While we've already known about the truck's engine lineup, its payload ratings and we've even learned a bit about how it drives, the truck's EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings have remained a mystery. The wait is finally over. Ford has announced numbers that put the latest F-150 as the mileage leader among gasoline-powered, full-size pickups in the US, with its new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 topping the charts. Starting with the entry-level naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6, the rear-wheel-drive F-150 is rated at 18-miles-per-gallon city, 25-mpg highway and 20-mpg combined. Opting for four-wheel drive drops those numbers slightly to 17/23/19. If fuel economy is your absolute priority, then upgrading to the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 is the hot ticket. It improves things further to 19/26/22 in rear-wheel drive trim or 18/23/20 with four-wheel drive. The carryover naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 is rated at 15/22/18 as a 4X2 or 15/21/17 as a 4X4. Finally, the flagship 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 tops the range in available torque and offers buyers 17/24/20 ratings with rear-wheel drive or 17/23/19 with four-wheel drive. "We are delivering with the toughest, smartest and most capable F-150 ever – and now the highest EPA-estimated fuel economy ratings of any full-size gas-powered pickup in America," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president, Global Product Development, in the company's announcement. Depending on engine and drivetrain configuration, Ford contends that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost's top rating puts fuel economy up between 5 and 29 percent over the current generation, thanks in large part to the truck's lighter aluminum construction. Obviously, these are EPA estimates, and your mileage may vary – ours has. Recently, Autoblog team members have had real difficulty even approximating government mpg estimates on many EcoBoost models, including the new F-150.

Ford C-Max spied with fresh updates

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

The Ford C-Max hatchback looks to be getting a few cosmetic updates, as evidenced in this latest set of spy photos. Like the smaller Focus, which also received a nip/tuck for the 2015 model year, the C-Max appears to be getting a revised front fascia with slimmer headlamps and a more, shall we say, Aston Martin-like grille. Around back, there looks to be a new bumper with redesigned taillamps, as well.
In other markets, the C-Max people-mover is available with a range of powertrains, but here in the US, it exists either as a traditional gas-electric or plug-in hybrid. The C-Max's fuel economy has been a particular topic of interest lately, with its official fuel economy ratings having been lowered twice since the vehicle's launch. Sales initially suffered a bit following this fiasco, though numbers have since leveled out. It's unclear if Ford is working on any powertrain tweaks for the updated C-Max seen here, however.
Ford has likely spruced up the hatch's interior, as well, though we don't have photos of that at this time. Mum's the word on when we'll see the new C-Max, but our best guess is that it'll arrive sometime in the next year.
