One nice solid 1959 Ford F-100 pick up truck.The truck is a 1/2 ton short wheelbase with the fleetside bed,the overall condition is very nice driver condition it is not show perfect but above average driver quality.The body is very nice the truck was painted once I think in the late seventies or early eighties,the paint is in nice condition but it does have some chips and scratches and some spots where the paint is thin where it has been polished,there also are some spots where the paint has been touched up. I don`t see any rust issues in the body other than a little spot on the bottom inside below the hinge on the passenger door.There are some spots on the body where you can see the body filler cracking,all this is minor and cannot be seen unless right on the area.The tailgate does have some damage where it has broke and been rewelded,also it has a some dents in it along the center section.The inside of the bed is nice with minimal wear and tear.It does have snaps attached to the bed side where it had a tonneau cover at one time.The grille and bumpers are all nice.The rubber around the windows does show its age.The wheels are not the stock wheels and are 15 inch with newer BF Goodrich Silvertons wide whitewall tires.The engine and transmission are both all stock with the exception of the engine exhaust crossover pipe has been remove and dual exhust installed,it also has the Petronix conversion done to the stock distributor.The engine runs good with no real issues it could use a good tune-up and possibly a carb overhaul to make it really purr.The trans is the factory granny low 4 speed trans it works good with no issues,the rest of the drivertrain as far as I know is in good shape.I have put quite of trouble free miles on the truck and it drives stops and rides nice for an old truck. It has no power steering or brakes.The inside is nice as well it has what appears to be a factory headliner that covers the floor and the sides of the rear window.The seat and floor mat are both nice as well the I/P lights wipers all work.The truck also has a vintage Dixco tach with vintage Stewart warner temp and oil pressure gauges.The truck would make a nice driver for the entry level Classic car person,A nice period 1960`s hot rod base to start with or a nice solid piece to do the frame off restoration. Please ask any questions and it is avaliable for personal inspection or test drive if you are local. I will require a 500.00 deposit within 48 hours and payment in full at pick-up. The truck is licensed and road worthy but it is not a comfortable long journey ride.I have the California title in hand.So if you are looking for a nice ride for next summer here it is !!!!

How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.
Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job
Tue, 07 Jan 2014When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
Ford says utility vehicles are key to global growth
Tue, 26 Nov 2013While most of us believe that small, fuel efficient cars are the key to global expansion for US automakers, Jim Farley, Ford's vice president of Global Marketing, thinks otherwise. Last week, we attended an exclusive sneak preview of the Ford Edge Concept in advance of the Los Angeles Auto Show, and Farley told us that it's actually utility vehicles that will help the Blue Oval gain market share overseas. "There is no other segment in our industry that is growing like utilities," he said. "We expect over the next five years this full family of [utility] vehicles to really drive our growth as a company."
And Farley has the numbers to back it up, too. Ford projects overall automotive sales to grow 23 percent from 2012 to 2017, but the company's utility vehicles are expected to boom by an impressive 41 percent during that same period. Much of that growth will be in China, where Ford estimates its utility sales will explode. "The biggest opportunity for us globally for utilities is in China," Farley said. "China utility growth is expected to more than double from where it is today to 2017, which isn't that far away." Most astounding is that Ford projects its own utility sales in China will eventually increase by more than 2,000 percent when smaller crossovers, such as the EcoSport and Kuga (sold as the Escape in North America), and the Edge and Explorer, are factored in.
Ford's VP also expects utilities to lead the way in the struggling European market. "With all the difficulties of the European market, there is one segment that has actually expanded in volume over the last several years even though the market is way down, and that's utilities," Farley told us. Ford estimates that their utility sales will grow 65 percent in Europe from 2012-2017. "The utility segment is projected to grow we think about thirty percent between now and 2017 in Europe, and we think we are going to grow twice that rate as a brand," Farley continued.
