Up for auction is a very very nice 1969 Ford f100 shortbed.  I have owned this truck for eight years and was my daily driver for six of them.  About two years ago I decided to strip it and repaint it with the intent of keeping the truck.  It sat in the garage in pieces for months because I ran out of time to work on it.  I don't have the room for the truck so I have to sell it now that I have finally put it all back together.  This truck has a ton of new parts....I'll try to list all of them at the end.  It has a great running 302 V8, a rebuilt C4 automatic with a B&M shift kit, and the factory locking rear end.  This truck runs and drives great!  Power steering works very well, the engine is a little cold-natured but runs very strong and the transmission shifts like a champ. The body is very solid, and the interior is very nice. Truck still has the original dash pad that's still soft and crack-free.  While not a perfect truck, this is a great driver that is extremely presentable at a show.  I stripped this truck down to the point it was just a cab and rolling chassis, repainted it Wimbledon white using Urethane Enamel, replaced all the rubber, and reassembled the truck. This truck has dual exhaust with glass packs and sounds very good.  Carburetor is rebuilt and is the factory Autolite 2 bbl.  List of new parts is as follows:


blower motor for the heat
heater core
heater control valve
heater hoses
radiator hoses and bypass hose
oil pump and pickup screen
engine gaskets
remachined heads with new valves, guides, seats and springs
valve lifters and pushrods
timing cover
crane cams double roller timing chain and gear set
temperature sender
oil pressure sender
power steering hoses
fuel lines
fuel pump
water pump
cooling fan (aftermarket stainless)
thermostat and housing
vacuum lines
distributor
spark plugs and wires
alternator
voltage regulator
starter
starter solenoid
exhaust gaskets and head pipe donuts
exhaust hangers
air cleaner assembly
factory Ford PCV hose and PCV valve
radius arm bushings
coil springs
front and rear shocks
Bendix front brake drums
brake shoes, hardware and hoses
wheel cylinders for the brakes
brake master cylinder
steering column coupler (rag joint between column and box)
steering column bearings
turn signal switch
wiper switch with delay wiper unit installed
fuel level sending unit
windshield gasket 
windshield
rear window glass gasket
door weatherstrips
firewall pad updated to molded ABS plastic style with additional insulation
carpet
cloth and vinyl seat upholstery
door panels
armrests
glove box liner
glove box "Ranger" emblem
instrument cluster bezel and lens
dome light lens and door pin switches
exterior door handles and mounting pads
front and rear bumpers 
parking lamp lenses front and rear
sylvania silverstar headlamps
transmission modulator valve
motor and transmission mounts
u joints

I'm sure there are a couple things I have replaced that I am forgetting to mention.  As I was driving this truck and for the time it was off the road I had been amassing parts for it so putting it back together was almost like being on the assembly line when it was built.  This truck will make someone a really nice ride to enjoy and show off. It is titled in my name in the state of North Carolina, so no paperwork worries! Any questions please message me and I will respond promptly. This truck is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end auction early.  Buyer is responsible for pick up or transportation arrangements.

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.

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.

Shelby GT350 to be auctioned for charity at Barrett-Jackson in January

Fri, Dec 26 2014

If you just have to be the first person in the world to possess the latest Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang, then you need to be bidding during the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ, on January 17. That's because Ford is offering the chance to own the inaugural production example of its latest premiere pony car there. The buyer of the first GT350 gets to choose from any color and all of the available packages for their car. Although, the real highlight is probably being among the first to listen to the 5.2-liter V8 under the hood with its flat-plane crankshaft. Ford promises that the mill makes over 500 horsepower and more than 400 pound-feet of torque. To sweeten the deal even further, all of the proceeds of the sale go to the JDRF, a charity that funds type 1 diabetes research. There's no reserve on the auction for the GT350 but don't expect a bargain. Last year, the first 2015 'Stang raised $300,000 for the JDRF at the Barrett-Jackson sale, and the initial Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 brought in $650,000 for charity. You can read Ford's entire announcement about the event below. FORD MOTOR COMPANY TO SELL NEW SHELBY GT350 MUSTANG AT BARRETT-JACKSON SCOTTSDALE AUCTION TO BENEFIT JDRF First publicly available production unit of the all-new Shelby GT350® Mustang to be auctioned by Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction, with all proceeds benefiting JDRF Winning bidder will be able to choose from available colors and packages for Shelby GT350 Ford-sponsored ride-and-drives during the auction will feature a full lineup of 2015 vehicles Ford Motor Company will commemorate the 50th anniversary of the legendary Shelby GT350 Mustang by auctioning the first production unit of the new-generation car available to the public for charity at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, Arizona. All proceeds will benefit JDRF, the country's leading global organization funding type 1 diabetes research. Live coverage of the auction of the Shelby GT350 will air on Velocity on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2015. The winning bidder of lot No. 3008 – selling at No Reserve – will become owner of the coveted first retail production unit of Ford Shelby GT350, and choose from available Shelby GT350 colors and packages. In January 1964, Carroll Shelby and Ford Motor Company forever altered the automotive industry with the introduction of the GT350. It was offered through Ford dealers from 1965 through 1970.
