I am the 2nd. owner, I flew to OK. from FL. over 25 yrs. ago and drove it back to Fl., it had aprox. 60K on it, it now has 90K orig. miles. I sanded the orig. Ford paint off of it MYSELF, it had never been repainted, I have a book of pic's to show all the work I've done on it. I also have a log book with all part #'s and where I bought the parts. I put in all new glass, still all in perfect shape, I painted it over 20 yrs. ago, it's not a SHOW paint job, it is showing it's age, but a VERY good driver, I still clean it up and take it to local car shows, it draws a lot of lookers, they all ask if I made it a 4X4, it is the 1st. yr. for a FACTORY 4X4, there is a very few Ford 4X4's before 1959, but they are NOT Factory built. The truck sit for over 5 yrs. in my garage, while I was busy with the 53 COE in the pic's, I pulled it out and went thru all the brakes, wheel cyl's, master cyl., clutch master cyl., the clutch slave cyl., all new tires, oil change, this was all done about 1 yr. ago and I've been driving it weekly, the A/C just quit a few weeks ago, it is an aftermarket under dash unit, I put in all new hoses, new dryer & expansion valve, it's cooling fine, no overheating problem with the A/C running, even at idle in heavy traffic, the truck has NO history of over heating, even towing with it. I used it as an everyday driver for many yrs. and in my business towing boats, I had my own boats sales & service, I've towed around 6-7K lbs many times, it will pull in 4th gear as low as 15 MPH when towing. I did change out the pts. for an elec. setup, no more pts. to adjust. The truck runs GREAT, shifts fine, the 4 wheel drive works fine, it has Warn hubs on it. There is few things that the truck needs, it's NOT perfect, the front springs have sagged a little, there is a pic. of the bump stop close to the springs, driving on paved roads it's OK, but hard bumps it will bottom out on the stops, I have NEVER run the truck OFFROAD, it has never been in the mud or sand, to much work in it for that, and I'm past that now, I'm over 60 yrs. old, LOL If you want to make it a SHOW truck, then you will want to repaint it. I would drive it anywhere, in the pic's, you will see it at an idle, 40psi oil pressure. In the past I have driven it on a 2K mile trip, no problems at all. It is not fast, it has all the orig. running gear under it, I drive it around 55-60 mph, it does fine. I really think you will not find a better orig. Ford 4X4 anywhere, it does not have power steering or power brakes, when towing you'll wish it had disc brakes, I've thought about putting disc on it many times, but never did, when I 1st. bought it, I was planning a street rod, big 460, later model running gear-etc., but after driving it to Fl. from Ok., it was just to darn GOOD a truck to chop it up, I would like to see it stay orig. I want a buyer to be happy with it, I really think you should make to trip to Fl. to see it, I live north west of Tampa, that would be the closest to fly into if you wanted to see it or drive it home. I would drive it to the airport so you could see it, I would even drive it to it's new home if you pay my airfare back to Fl. I can also help arrange overseas shipping if needed, I can deliver to Fl. ports for shipping. A $500.00 dep. with Pay-Pal with in 48 hrs. will be OK, CASH or wire transfer, any type of check, money order-etc., I will wait 30 DAYS for it to clear before releasing the truck, I do have a clear title in my name. The truck is also listed local, so if it sells local then I will take down this posting. If you buy it and pay the dep. thru Pay-Pal and you don't want it after seeing it, then I will refund your dep. I do have many pic's, you can e-mail me for more if you want, my ph. # 727 869 7847

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
Plug In 2014: ALTe ready to join Ford's EQVM to convert, sell F-150 PHEV [w/video]
Mon, Aug 4 2014It's been a while since we've checked in with ALTe and its plans to convert big work vehicles like the Ford F-150 into plug-in hybrids. So, when we saw a demonstration vehicle sitting outside the San Jose Convention Center at the Plug In 2014 Conference last week, we had to get a closer look. When we did, we realized that it's been quite some time since we've been in a Ride & Drive vehicle that was all beat to heck. It's been quite some time since we've been in a Ride & Drive vehicle that was all beat to heck. The reason for the well-worn F-150 with 30,000 miles on it is that ALTe has been showing off its extended-range EV technology to lots of people all around the country, and Kyle Maki has been the man on the scene more often than not. "This one, I've taken all over the country," he told AutoblogGreen. "I've wore out that seat, I think. The only reason this one wasn't driven here was because we were in Charlotte [NC] last week and I didn't want to take a chance and not make it in time for this event." In other words, ALTe is out there, ginning up excitement for the idea of a plug-in hybrid Ford with an electric range of up to 40 miles and which can then continue on gas for another 360 miles at around about 25 miles per gallon. ALTe wants to not only convert new vehicles but it also offers retrofits for fleets that are happy with their current fleet. The company offers converted versions of the Ford E350 and E450 utility vehicles now but the near-mythical F-150 PHEV is still "coming soon." Yes, orders are now being accepted, but you will be forgiven if you think this is all happening on a slow time scale. There are simply a lot of things to do before ALTe can sell the truck. ALTe is currently attempting to join Ford's EQVM program, which is the electric version of the standard Qualified Vehicle Modifiers program. The QVM program requires coachbuilders to "be successfully evaluated by Ford Motor Company on criteria such as engineering, the manufacturing process, quality control, and adherence to Ford and Lincoln Divisions guidelines." Qualified applicants must also meet all applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, conform to Ford/Lincoln conversion guidelines and agree to be inspected annually as well as have a "commitment to continuous improvement." Maki has a simpler explanation. "It basically means you're a preferred supplier, a Tier 1, if you will," he said.
Ford gives police chiefs tech to surveil officers in their own cars
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Police officers certainly have a difficult job in keeping the streets safe, but as public employees in positions of authority, there is still a very real need for oversight. To that end, Ford is partnering with a tech company to offer a new system called Ford Telematics for Law Enforcement on its line of Police Interceptor patrol vehicles that could make cops safer, while giving cities a better idea of what its officers are doing.
The system streams live data about cruisers back to the home base to people like the police chief or shift supervisor. That info includes expected things like speed, location and cornering acceleration, but it gets incredibly granular as well, with records of things like if emergency lights are on, or even if an officer is wearing a seatbelt.
Ford Telematics for Law Enforcement "ought to protect officers as much as it protects the public," said Ford spokesperson Chris Terry to Autoblog. Constantly monitoring patrol cars offers cities a lot of advantages, too. First, it reduces potential liability because a department can prove where each vehicle is at all times. Also, officers know they are being watched and may potentially drive more safely.
