1956 Ford F350
I bought this truck in Idaho from the original owner in 1992 with 40,000 miles on it. This truck has lived every day of it's life under cover, is and always has been rust free. I drove it approximately 30,000 miles for fun and chores before moving from Idaho to Maryland in 1999 where I stored it inside and have put less than 1500 miles on it since. In 20004 I decided to spruce it up as a project with my Dad and brought it up to the level of finish you see now. This truck came originally with a 223 in-line six cylinder, four speed tranny and a 5.14:1 rear. My object was to make it a pretty truck with a little snort under the hood and comfortable at cruising speeds that the the 5.14 rear really didn't allow. Well we never quite finished it but it is a great driver. All the following work was done in 2004-05 and the truck has been driven approximately 500 miles since. I replaced the motor, transmission and rear end with the whole drive train out of a 1979 F350. 400ci small block fully rebuilt (I believe bored .030 over) with RV cam Four speed manual w/granny. Has PTO for future dump body. New clutch, radiator, heater core Entire 1979 9" rear with 4.11 gears and 16" 8 lug wheels. Original front end w/ 17.5" 6 lug wheels ( I still have the original 17.5's for the back painted red) New dual exhaust system New dash / gauges (have original) New fuel tank (behind seat) New hood hinges (hood needs some alignment), badges, rear-view and side-view mirrors, visors, carpet kit (uninstalled), running board trim, dome light. Very high quality paint work (no clear coat). Only body work was a dent in passenger fender and a small ding in the hood. There are now a couple chips (see photos) and a scratch in the drivers fender from my Dad's belt that CAN be buffed out. The interior dash and floorboards are all original, unmolested w/ original paint. Only the inside of the doors was painted. Frame was also painted. Original FOMOCO windshield, back glass, butterfly vents and passenger window. Drivers window was cracked and I cracked the new one installing it. Original wiring. Original battery box and hold downs under passenger floor in great shape I started to insulate the cab prior to headliner and have enough i think to finish. Needs a new flatbed built and I was planning to remove or detemper a few leaf springs after the bed was installed (very stiff!) Original key and owners manual All lights, blinkers, horn, wipers, heater, fans, etc work properly. Work done in last two months: Full service and tune up New heater core Coolant flush New battery I know I'm forgetting a few things and am happy to answer questions. I may not remember every detail because most of the work was done almost ten years ago and the truck has been in my shop virtually unused since. I start it up and drive it around the block every once in a while, less than 500 miles in ten years. Work, life and other projects always seem to take precedence. I do know that you will not find a more solid, low mileage, never abused one ton dually. Great toy or toy hauler. I would prefer all interested buyers to come see the truck. If the truck is not as represented bid can be withdrawn and no negative feedback will be left. Cash at pickup is the only payment method excepted. |

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
Ford recalls 1.48 million F-150s for transmission, plus other models
Wed, Feb 13 2019Weeks after recalling more than 800,000 F-Series pickup trucks for a fire risk, Ford has issued another separate recall for approximately 1.48 million 2011-2013 F-150s for a transmission fault. The six-speed automatics could unexpectedly downshift into first gear without warning. Ford and Lincoln tangentially issued much smaller recalls for the Mustang, Continental, Nautilus, and Navigator. According to Ford, some 2011-2013 model year F-150 pickups with six-speed automatic transmissions could "experience an intermittent loss of the transmission output speed sensor signal to the powertrain control module." This could potentially cause the trucks to temporarily downshift, which could be dangerous if it occurs while driving. Of the 1.48 million affected trucks, 1.26 million are in the U.S. while 221,000 are in Canada. Thus far, Ford knows of five reported accidents involving the issue. To remedy the problem, owners can take their trucks to dealers to update the power control module software. Ford also issued recalls for about 4,350 2019 Mustangs, Lincoln Nautiluses, and Lincoln Navigators in the U.S. and Canada due to a possible fault with the instrument clusters. Although there have been no reports of accidents, Ford says the instrument panel clusters assemblies might be blank or not turn out when the vehicle is started. Additionally, Ford issued a third recall for 28,200 2017-2019 Lincoln Continentals in the U.S. and Canada. Ford says silicon contamination might build up inside the door latch motor, causing it to malfunction. As a result, the door latch might not always fully engage, and the doors could possibly open unexpectedly. Despite no reports of accidents, Ford will remove and replace door latch assemblies on all doors for those affected by the defect. If any of these apply to a vehicle you own, contact Ford to discuss whether it is included in any of these recalls and have the vehicle checked out at a Ford dealership.
