Please save me in your sellers list and check out my other listings if I currently have any. I do towing and sometimes come across nice vehicles, mostly Dually trucks, since that's what I personally like to drive. I check them for possible problems and do a test drive. I don't buy junk or vehicles I wouldn't trust driving myself. Some of the vehicles I come across are repos or have expired tags, but are good running vehicles with no problems. If I find any problems I will post them in the listing so you know what you are bidding on. Vehicles with expired registration are especially good for buyers outside of California because back fees owed to California DMV don't apply in other States. You will also be able to legally drive the vehicle back to your State by purchasing a vehicle moving permit that you can get for $18 at any California DMV.


Up for sale I have a very nice 1997 Ford F-450 F-Superduty with only 80,990 original miles. The F-Superduty series has stronger and bigger components with much higher payload and towing capacity compared to the traditional Heavy Duty trucks.

This truck came from a company that ran out of business. Previously this truck used to be a city truck, so you know it has been well taken care of.

It runs and drives good, there are no warning lights on, no overheating, no leaking of any kind. I drove this truck for at least two hours straight in the city and on the freeway. Engine runs strong and transmission shifts through all gears with no slipping and no delay. I noticed a minor jerk when put into "D" (drive) or "R" (reverse) and when it shifts from 1st to 2nd gear. It's not a big jerk, but I took it to a mechanic who test drove the truck and said there is nothing wrong with it, it's just a Superduty truck and that's how they feel. Another mechanically inclined person suggested to change the transmission fluid and filter, but also said there is nothing wrong with the transmission. I just wanted to put it out here for your info, but I was not too concerned there would be anything wrong with a well maintained Superduty truck that has only 80k miles and used to belong to the city.

The exterior is straight with no dents, just the front bumper is slightly bent as you can see in the pictures, but I didn't even noticed it at first. Paint is nice and shiny. This truck use to be yellow and was painted white after it was purchased from the city.

Interior is very clean and in pretty good shape besides a few minor things. The front bench has a couple of rips on the sides and on the back side of the back rest as you can see in the pictures. Also the dash has minor scratches and a few screw holes where a vhf radio was attached. Other than that there is no other damage.

The utility body is in great shape with lots of storage and all the compartments lock with a key. It also has a heavy duty tow hitch, two 12V outlets and two fold out seats in the back. AC/heater, radio and gauges work good. Truck has dual gas tanks and both work, but one doesn't show how much gas is in there. All 6 tires are in good shape and have lots of tread left, about  80%.

This truck holds a clean/clear title and I have it on hand.

IMPORTANT: registration has been out since October 2012 and it it will cost about $650 to bring the registration up to date. This fee does not apply to buyers outside of California.

This truck is being sold as is where is with no warranty. Buyer is responsible for pickup in a timely manner.

If you have any questions or would like to test drive the truck prior to placing a bid you can write me or call or text me @ 310-872-4718.

Thank you and happy bidding.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books

Fri, 08 Aug 2014

The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.

Europe's most-wanted classic car is... the Ford Mustang?

Sat, 28 Sep 2013

Over the span of its 49 years and five generations, the Ford Mustang has held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts in the US, but, as it turns out, this car is also very popular amongst European car lovers. Earlier this summer, AutoScout24 - a new and used car shopping site in Europe - polled around 75,000 European "car lovers" (not sure how they vetted the respondents) to see which cars were the most popular, and the Mustang came out on top over iconic European classics like the BMW M1 and Volkswagen Beetle.
In the whole of Europe, 37 percent of those polled dream of owning a Mustang, but that number jumps in individual countries like Austria (42 percent) and Spain (41 percent). Rounding out the top five popular classics in Europe are the Mini and Citroën 2CV. Find out which cars made up the rest of the top 10 in the press release posted below.

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year

Tue, Dec 16 2014

There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.
