This 95 F-150 is a Mark III conversion, Flareside extended cab.  The truck has been in the family for 11 years and has been my shop truck for many years.  There have been no accidents and no major repairs since we bought the truck with 40k miles on it.  This truck is very reliable, has ice cold A/C, leather interior (with wear and some tearing as you see in pictures), tow package, power rear sliding window, cruise control (works), automatic with overdrive, powdercoated 40 Ford style steel wheels (Wheel Vintiques), 34 Ford V-8 centers, stainless trim rings, BF Goodrich Radial T/A's (285/70/15 rears on 10's; 225/60/15 fronts on 8's) with 3k miles on them, all new brakes front to rear (rotors, pads, drums, shoes, hardware), new front wheel bearings, new starter last year, trans serviced at 150k miles (flush/filter/fill), and tune up at 150k (cap/rotor/plugs/wires/throttle body replaced/egr valve replaced/fuel pressure regulator replaced/new fuel filter).  The truck is lowered 2" in the rear and 1 1/2" in the front (lowered coil springs).  Has an incredible rake.

I have used Mobil-1 10w-30 synthetic since 75k miles, changed every 5k miles.  Differential oil was changed to synthetic (Valvoline) at 150k miles.  Rear showed no visible wear or alignment issues, rear bearings are excellent, diff does not leak.

The pinstriping is done by hand and was done by the late Gary Wills, "The Pioneer", and has been on the truck for many years.  I will not be removing the pintstriping as part of this sale.  Getting such a good truck, this cheap, if you don't like it...your elbow grease is free and have at it.  The lettering is for my shop, so this is a REAL "shop truck", used daily to advertise my shop, pick up parts, tow the show trailer (1700 lbs), tow and haul finished and project bikes...you name it, it did it and it never complained.

The truck does have scratches and obvious signs of use...no, wait, "This truck has great patina!"  No rust issues, solid frame, and excellent drivetrain.  Don't let the miles fool you.  This truck has been well taken care of...and driven only around 10k miles per year its entire life (think about that...my 08 Mazda has 120k on it already!).  This truck has a lot of life left and makes a cool statement every mile.

There are issues, however.  The leather seats show wear and there are several tears and pulls (rear seat is perfect).  The driveline has a mild vibration that appears around 25mph and disappears around 55mph.  I have had the tires re-balanced twice, but the issue has not corrected.  The driveshaft does not show to have lost any balance weights...so, the next step is to check the ball joints, which I have not done.  The vibration does not affect performance and is mild...but it is noticeable.  The front end is correctly aligned and that is not the issue.The driver side power window "up" limiter is gone.  So, you have to "stop" the window by letting off the switch when it gets to the top.  The gear drive for "close" on the power rear window is stripped.  You can open via the switch, then push closed.  The heater is weak, but the A/C is ice cold (the "trap door" does not always move to the heat side/standard problem in Fords).

I have a clear Tennessee title in my name.  I accept PayPal, cash, and credit cards (in any case, the truck will not be release until ALL funds are clear and in my hands).  If you ahve any questions, please use eBay's message function.  I will respond.

Of course, I make no guarantees or warranties of any kind.  This truck has been nice to me for many years.  It may not like you.  It may break down...or, it may run for longer than you need it.  In any event, once you buy it, it is yours...no whining, no takie-backsies.

Project Ugly Horse: Part V

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

The Slippery Slope
I've had a healthy appreciation for cars that stop since one truly unfortunate incident with a runaway 1971 Lincoln Continental.
It's funny how quickly a party can turn from, "We're all having blast" to "What happened to the front of the house, and how many stitches do you think this is going to take?" Standing in a Mustang salvage shop in Kodak, Tennessee, I couldn't help but feel I had strayed into the latter territory with Ugly Horse. There was a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 plucked from a rear-ended Cobra sitting off to my left. The shelves were lined with second-hand Roush and SVT components galore, but I couldn't stop staring at a set of rotors with the approximate diameter of my chest.

Woman trades 1914 Model T in for 2013 Corvette

Wed, 17 Apr 2013

We're sure that dealers must see all sorts of interesting trade ins, but this one may take the cake. Red River Chevrolet in Bossier City, Louisiana, recently had a customer come in with an odd request. Tina Boyter wanted to trade in three vehicles on a brand-new 2013 Chevy Corvette. Among the hardware was 1980 Corvette, a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado and a 1914 Ford Model T. While the '80 Corvette had been her personal car for years, the '78 Eldorado had belonged to Boyter's mother before she traded up to a Lincoln. The big Caddy had just 10,290 miles on the clock when it was traded in.
And the Model T? Boyter says the car was built as a racer by Ford, and that it had been a show winner for years when it belonged to her father. But, after spending the last 16 years in a museum with its fluids drained, Boyter decided it was time to shed some of the past. She walked into the dealer, laid eyes on a white 2LT Corvette with a red interior and offered to trade all three of the vehicles in on the sports car.
Why not wait for the C7? "I fell in love with that one when I walked in the door," She said. We can't fault her there.

Weekly Recap: Volkswagen moves forward under Muller

Sat, Sep 26 2015

Most stunning was the speed of it all. On the morning of September 18, Volkswagen AG stood atop the automotive world. It was profitable and sold more cars than Toyota and General Motors, its two main rivals for global supremacy. By nightfall, the company would be embroiled in scandal. Revelations the German auto giant cheated on diesel emissions testing in the United States reverberated from Washington to Wolfsburg, Germany. What started out as a problem with 482,000 VWs and Audis in the US exploded into an international scandal. Millions of vehicles have the rigged software, meaning VW broke environmental rules as its cars spewed pollutants all over the world. The fallout began immediately. Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn – one of the most respected and capable executives in the business – apologized on Sunday and Tuesday. On Wednesday he resigned. As the week progressed, the company's stock took a beating and credit agencies threatened to drop their ratings. VW dealers and owners said they felt betrayed. The automaker hired a law firm that defended BP after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The EPA is already extending its testing procedures to look for "defeat devices" like the ones used by Volkswagen. On Friday the company announced a major restructuring. Matthias Muller, Porsche's chief for the last five years, took over as CEO of Volkswagen and is charged with picking up the pieces of a shattered company facing regulatory action and lawsuits. With GM, Toyota, and Takata scandals still fresh, Volkswagen will likely experience unprecedented levels of scrutiny. Additionally, VW's markets in the United States, Canada, and Mexico will be combined into a North American region under the leadership of former Skoda boss Winfried Vahland, though US chief executive Michael Horn will stay on. The company is also realigning its brands by specialty and streamlining its board. Firings, government action, restructurings, and international outrage – things that usually build up over months or years – all occurred in about a week. With dizzying speed, Volkswagen's future has changed dramatically. It all happened, it's still happening, so fast. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Buick Cascada to start at $33,990 Buick hasn't made a convertible in 25 years. That's a whole person who can drink plus a kindergartner. So it's been awhile. Enter the 2016 Buick Cascada. It has top-shelf Opel engineering, slinky design, and it's reasonably priced.
