This is my 1964 F100 short-bed truck. I have had it for about 6 years now and I am ready for something new. If you have a muscle car from 1965-74, I am open to a trade. I had all the work done on this truck by the guy who sold it to me. I have never had any problems with it. The 302 in the truck is from 1985. Chrome front and back bumpers. Newer tires with less than 6,000 miles on them. Truck is rust free. It has a newer Edelbrock 550 4-barrel carb on it that makes this beast run really nice. I had it tuned by my mechanic and he did a wonderful job. The truck has power brakes that work really really well and I can stop on a dime. When I bought the truck 6 years ago I had the rack and pinion power steering installed. It was a kit from a company called No-Limit engineering, via nolimit.net, out of San Berdoo, California. I dealt with the gentleman who machined the parts myself and every time I get the oil changed the mechanic who does the service compliments me on how nice the front end is on the truck. The power steering package alone was right around $800 before installation costs. It also has a brand new Reese hitch that tows very nicely. I have replaced the plugs and wires, distributor cap and rotor, transmission pan gasket, the transmission fluid, voltage regulator, fuel filters, fuel pump, gas cap, valve cover gaskets, chrome valve covers, air filter, radiator hoses, it gets regular oil changes, and the horn is new. It now has an "ah-oogah" horn.
This truck has served me well. If I were to keep it, I would get a new paint job. You can see in the pictures that it has some peeling at the gas tank. That's because the old gas cap leaked out gas when I had the truck parked on a hill overnight and the gas ate through the paint. I replaced the gas cap and the problem was solved. That happened 3 months after I got the truck. The paint has not peeled any further and when I wash the truck there isn't any more paint that peels away. The spot that lost paint has been that big since the day the gas leaked out. I have driven this truck from St. Louis, Missouri to downtown Houston, Texas and back without any problems three times. I was going to school in Texas and coming home for the summer over the last 5 years. This truck made the trip three times and handled Houston city driving every time. I also have a Harley 883 Iron, this truck pulled my bike across the country with no problem and I would not have any worries about doing it again.
All in all I would say this truck is a solid driver that has some minor cosmetic flaws. There is a small ding on the driver's side door just back from the side mirror from a rock. There is a ding in the bed of the truck up by the cab's rear window glass. Other than that though, there are not any dings on the truck. When/if you decided to paint this truck, these small dings would not amount to much if anything in prep work for a new paintjob. This truck is not perfect though. It is a driver quality truck that will get you noticed. If you like every car fan and his brother coming over and chatting you up about your truck each time you stop for gas, food, or anything else, then this is the truck for you.
I will eventually provide a phone number, but I didn't get around to getting one today, so until then if you have any questions, contact me through Ebay. I check this regularly and I would be more than happy to answer any of your questions or concerns.

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update
Fri, May 19 2017Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
