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.

Yearly auto recall record demolished in 6 months

Tue, Jul 1 2014

With nearly 40 million vehicles under repair campaigns and counting, 2014 will almost certainly go down as the year of the automotive recall. At just past the halfway mark, we are already at record levels, and there aren't any signs that the epidemic is slowing. General Motors' latest 8.4 million vehicle recall in the US puts the industry over the top for the title of the most cars with fixes pending from automakers ever. That's a prize no one ever wants to receive. According to TheDetroitBureau.com, the US recall total has hit 39.85-million vehicles to surpass the previous record of 33.01 million in 2004. Perhaps more surprising, with over 26 million repairs pending, it's still quite possibly that GM could recall more vehicles by the end of the year than the 27.96-million unit total of the entire US auto industry last year. With over 40 campaigns under its belt in 2014, the roughly one million cars it would take would hardly come as a surprise at this point, especially with increased government scrutiny into the Detroit automaker's processes. The pace of recalls started off relatively normal this year, with just a smattering of campaigns. The most surprising early on was Aston Martin calling in about 75 percent of its output since 2007 due to counterfeit plastic, but with just a few thousand cars, it was relatively tiny in pure numbers. GM really kicked things off soon after, but we didn't know it at the time. It issued its first bulletin for 778,000 Cobalt compacts in early February. Things only ballooned from there as more models were added to its growing ignition switch problem. The onslaught of announcements from every major automaker hasn't abated since then. Some industry executives are trying to put a positive spin on the situation. "With what's transpired (in recent months), there's a higher level of scrutiny," said Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, to TheDetroitBureau.com. He believes that automakers are looking at data much more thoroughly than before, and it means better customer safety. Still, many consumers probably wish these problems had been found before their car went on sale.

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.

NHTSA closes Ford F-Series Super Duty steering probe without recall

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation into 2008 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups, which was originally opened last year, has now ended without a recall. NHTSA was looking into steering failures on some 336,000 trucks.
The issue rested with the steering gear - NHTSA received five complaints of failures - which was redesigned in 2005. According to the report on the matter, investigators "found evidence of broken sector shaft gear teeth and piston damage consistent with incidents of single event overload."
NHTSA investigators, however, "found no evidence of fatigue or material property defects in any of the fractures. Analysis of complaint rates by vehicle build month showed no patterns indicating potential manufacturing quality issues and no difference before and after Ford introduced design changes to the input shaft and sector shaft seals in July 2007 to address potential leak concerns," according to the report, obtained by The Detroit News.
