I have a 61 F100 I'm selling. 223 straight 6 w/ 4 speed manual tranny. The body is in decent shape it does have one dent in the front bumper. Flat black paint w cherry red roof all needed external body work was done be the previous owner There is a scratch or two in the roof from hauling a ladder. It does not have a tailgate. The worst rust on it is a few holes starting in the floorboards but there is also rust in the bed. It was running till the generator burned out I got rid of the voltage regulator and put in an alternator but the only one I had wasn't internally regulated... so right now it needs either a regulated alternator or a generator and voltage reg. Flat tire from sitting for a few years I believe it has around 62k on it....title in hand...decent looking truck. This truck WILL need to be towed, if you don't have a way to tow it, do not bid on it. Unfortunately these are the only pictures I have of it, I no longer live near Cicero, IL where it is being stored so I am not able to get any more. If you want to look at the truck please contact me and I will do my best to accommodate you. I do have someone who can meet with you to show you the truck.I have realized after 5 years of it siting, I will never get around to working on it. I paid $1700 but since it is not running and I need it sold I am taking the loss.

New Ford Police Interceptor tech protects cops' backsides
Mon, 22 Jul 2013It was only a matter of time before law enforcement agencies would realize the potential of driver-assist technology for use in their Ford Police Interceptors, and, now that they have, those back-up cameras and radar systems won't be used just for parking, but for security, as well.
The surveillance mode system works when the camera or radar detects movement from behind the vehicle, and if it does when it's activated, an alarm will alert the officer inside the car, the driver's side window will roll up and the doors will lock, protecting the officer from an unwanted intrusion. The officer, of course, has the option to turn surveillance mode off, mainly in urban areas where pedestrians would constantly set the alarm off, and it can only be activated when the police car is in park.
Randy Freiburger, Ford's police and ambulance fleet supervisor, came up with the patent-pending idea when researching the needs of police officers and riding along with them, during which time he realized officers would be safer with an extra set of eyes watching the area behind their cars, especially at night or when they're completing paperwork, using the in-car computer or handling a radar gun. "Unfortunately, there are people with bad intentions who sneak up on police officers," he says.
Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.
Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift
Tue, 09 Sep 2014
Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
