This is a very straight, very sturdy, 1972 Ford F-100 Sport Custom pickup. The engine is from a 1991 5.0 Mustang but is carbureted. The carburetor is a Quick Fuel 750 on an Edelbrock Performer intake with matching Edelbrock valve covers. It has a 3-speed automatic transmission with column shifter. A lot of work has been put into making this truck run very solid. Lots of new electrical work including a conversion to a GM 1-wire alternator for reliability. New starter, spark plugs, battery, cables, etc. Completely new fuel system including a brand new tank, electronic fuel pump, filters, and high-quality lines. The baby moon wheels are nearly flawless, and the tires are in great shape. The bed has been re-coated with bedliner to protect it from the elements. Needs some minor work such as a new speedometer cable to fix the speedometer, and to have the Ohms lowered on the fuel sending unit to accurately read fuel level (the current one is made for newer vehicles and gives a bad reading so it is kept unplugged). Even though the body is extremely straight with no Bondo ever found, solid floor pans, and a decent paint job, she's no show truck but she will certainly turn heads as a very dependable daily driver. It has been driven nearly every day for the past two years as a short commuter vehicle and as it sits will have no issues what-so-ever as a turnkey pickup ready to drive. This is one of the nicest pickups of this era on the road in the Fort Campbell/Clarksville, TN area and really stands out. Everyone who has seen it is amazed at the great condition it's in for a vehicle that's meant to be driven and not sit in a showroom. Odometer reads 23102, but it has most likely rolled over at least once. Additional pictures can be provided upon request.
The buyer will be required to pay for all transportation and/or shipping costs.
Payment will be accepted in the form of cash (in-person), money order, or bank-issued cashier's check. A bill of sale will be signed by the seller and buyer at the time of purchase and notarized in the state of Tennessee (if requested) and the title delivered to the buyer upon deposit of the payment.

Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost sales robust in early going
Tue, 13 May 2014Okay, okay, okay, so I was just a smidge wrong. Those that read my review of the Ford Fiesta with the new 1.0-liter, EcoBoost engine will know that while I really enjoyed the torquey little three-cylinder, I was concerned that Ford's decision to force 1.0-liter owners into a manual transmission, steel wheels and one trim level might hurt sales of the new engine. I was also concerned that the promised 45-mile-per-gallon highway rating wouldn't be enough to tempt buyers into trying an engine that's so far outside of what the general public is use to. My concerns, though, seem to have been for naught.
While not doing a booming business on the triple-equipped Fiesta, Ford is seeing a take rate of four to eight percent per month in the engine's first few months on sale. Now, four to eight percent might not sound like a lot - if, like last year, the Fiesta sells around 71,000 units, there'd be barely 5,600 1.0-liter models on the road. It is also small potatoes relative to the take rate on EcoBoost-equipped vehicles across the Ford range, which US sales analyst Erich Merkle estimates to be roughly 35 to 40 percent of retail sales. Still, according to The Detroit News, the 1.0-liter is getting adopted at roughly the same rate as the sparkling Fiesta ST, which should be a solid indication of just how well this little engine is doing.
The 1.0-liter's success "really speaks volumes, not just to what we're doing with the Fiesta, but with EcoBoost in general," Merkle told Autoblog.
Detroit automakers mulling helping DIA avoid bankruptcy looting
Tue, 13 May 2014It's not really a secret that the city of Detroit is in lots and lots of trouble. Even with an emergency manager working to guide it through bankruptcy, a number of the city's institutions remain in very serious danger. One of the most notable is the Detroit Institute of Arts, a 658,000-square-foot behemoth of art that counts works from Van Gogh, Picasso, Gauguin and Rembrandt (not to mention a version of Rodin's iconic "The Thinker," shown above) as part of its permanent collection.
Throughout the bankruptcy, the DIA has been under threat, with art enthusiasts, historians and fans of the museum concerned that its expansive collection - valued between $454 and $867 million by Christie's - could be sold by the city to help square its $18.5-billion debt.
Now, though, Detroit's hometown automakers could be set to step up and help save the renowned museum. According to a report from The Detroit News, the charitable arms of General Motors, Ford and Chrysler could be set to donate $25 million as part of a DIA-initiated campaign, called the "grand bargain." As part of the deal, the DIA would seek $100 million in corporate donations as part of a larger attempt at putting together an $816-million package that would be paid to city pension funds over 20 years. Such a move would protect the city's art collection from being sold off.
Ford reflects on radical Mustang concept that never reached showrooms
Tue, 25 Jun 2013The Ford Mustang that we all know and love made major waves in the auto industry way back in 1964 by offering style and reasonable pricing with optional V8 power. Its long hood and short rear deck, combined with a low-slung and sporty cockpit, made a lasting impression in the minds of consumers and car designers alike, and its basic shape has so endured the test of time that it's still in use today.
This being the case, you may be interested to know that the first Mustang of 1964.5 wasn't actually the first Mustang at all, being preceded by a concept car that made its public debut in 1962. This concept was nothing like the car that would eventually make it into production, with a radical wedge shape and a small V4 engine sitting behind the car's two occupants, driving the rear wheels. In other words, the conceptual Mustang was pretty much the complete opposite of the production Mustang besides the name.
Ford has kindly decided go through its massive archive to bring the original Mustang concept back into the public eye. The company goes so far as to pose this question to fans of the pony car: "Should we borrow a few of these style elements for the next iteration of the Mustang?"
