Beautiful 1965 Ford F-100 pick-up truck. Much work has been done and many new parts installed. Have receipts for all the work done and for all the parts purchased. This used to be a manual transmission truck but was converted to automatic. Rebuilt Ford truck transmission installed professionally with all the modifications needed. Very nice and expensive job. The previous owner painted the truck. Nice paint job still shines and looks good. New front and rear bumpers were installed. I installed new carpet and found the original solid floor pans. New seat cover and new foam also installed. NOS AM radio works but weak in volume for some reason. New dash bezel also installed with new glove box liner. Also a new original type head liner installed as well and sunvisors, mirror and new attaching pieces.
Original steel wheels were sandblasted and painted. Original hubcaps were put on and new tires with 10 miles on them were installed. New brakes and new shocks were installed. The bottom was all sanded down. Suspension parts were painted and the rest was undercoated.
The engine bay was sanded to bare metal and then primered and painted. All the parts on top of the engine were replaced such as spark plugs, wires, Pertronix electronic ignition, new carburator, new water pump, hoses, radiator, belts, battery tray, starter solenoid, battery tray. In addition the two engine wiring harnesses were replaced with brand new ones. The front to the rear wiring harness was also replaced with a new one.
The engine is a 353 2-bbl carb with manual choke. Starts right up and drives well. This is a very nice truck that has most of the work already done to it so it is in turn key and drive condition. The gauges all work but on occasion the speedometer needle sticks now and then. I have a new cable but have not put it in yet. A minor fix.
The truck is a long bed and a Ford C-6 transmission was installed. Truck also comes with a new custom fitted weather proof cover.

Jay Leno's Garage goes eco with Ricardo HyBoost
Mon, 17 Mar 2014"Now before you turn away, this is not another boring hybrid car thing..." Despite the slightly defensive introduction from Jay, the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is actually pretty fascinating. The Ricardo HyBoost is a 2009 Ford Focus that has had a 1.1-liter engine swapped in for the stock 2.0-liter four. That might not get you performance enthusiasts out there fired up, until, that is, you hear that the 1.1L is also fed by both a turbocharger and an electrically driven supercharger for an instant-on "torque-fill" effect. Sounds about right, considering that Ricardo engineering is part of the genius behind the McLaren P1.
Perhaps most exciting of all, the Ricardo folks say that the package should run somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,100. A sort of performance-hybrid that makes sense for the frugal driver and the enthusiast one, then. There's a lot more to the HyBoost, all of which can be seen in the video below.
Ford sells 7-millionth Explorer in America
Mon, 17 Nov 2014Say what you will about the evolution of the Ford Explorer, from roofed Ranger to body-on-frame sport utility vehicle to unibody crossover - the bottom line is that it's been a tremendously successful model for Ford. In fact, the Blue Oval automaker has sold seven million Explorer models in the United States alone.
The milestone, marked nearly a quarter-century after the introduction of the original in 1990, comes on the eve of the introduction of a new Explorer at the Los Angeles Auto Show this week. We don't yet know how the new Explorer will shape up, but we're mere days away from finding out.
Now heading into its sixth generation, the Explorer has formed the basis of Ford's utility lineup for over two decades. The Explorer landed on the market right around the time that the Bronco was trailing off, predating the company's expansion into larger SUVs like the Expedition and Excursion and crossovers like the Escape, Edge and Flex.
TRANSLOGIC 147: CES 2014 Autonomous Vehicles
Wed, Jan 15 2014We head back to CES in Las Vegas to check on the progress of autonomous vehicles in 2014. We go hands-free on the highway with Audi, narrowly avoid a collision with Ford and hear all about BMW's drifting driverless car. But first we take a ride on Induct's self-driving Navia shuttle.
