Hello and thank you for looking at my auction! I have a 2 documented owner 1962 F-100 Unibody long bed pickup truck. The first owner bought it new and kept it up until first of this year when we bought it and are now the second owners. The truck is in very good shape for a 52 year old vehicle. It has a small amount of work that has been done to it in the past but nothing major. It is solid and runs and drives and stops very good and has been on back roads, city streets and highways since we owned it with no issues at all. It is mostly primered but can be brought back to the patina look with some sanding and elbow grease or some finishing and painted to look very nice. The truck has some body blemishes but no real rot. The worst visible spots are in the bed. The tailgate opens and shuts exactly the way is should. For you truck and rat rod guys, you know that is hard to come by.

The truck has a 70's model 302 V8 with a heavy duty 4 speed transmission with the granny first gear along with a lower rear end gear. The rear end is a Ford 9 inch which is geared for pulling. Per the original owner, it was installed to pull his trailer. The following pieces were installed over the last couple months.

Points and condenser
Distributor
Coil
Plugs and wires
Oil and filter change
Gear and diff fluids changed
New door window seals and tracks
New felts and door seals - doors shut very clean and tight
New recovered bench seat with center fold down armrest
New CD player and speakers

The truck cranks up almost instantly and has not given any issues since the new points and condenser were installed. When first cranked, it has a very small amount of smoke but clears up once you go. The motor does not make any ticks, rattles or has no real leaks and the exhaust is nearly new and sounds very good and without being to loud.

Here is what else you will get with the truck if the offer is agreed upon.

Re-manufactured 70's model 302 heads - 1 set
4 speed truck transmission without granny gear
Lighter gear set to give better highway manners
Extra headlight buckets
Extra Wheel covers
Original door panels uncut
Few other odds and ends

You can buy this truck and put a little more money and time into it and have a very nice cruiser or rat rod or buy it and drive it like it is.

Thanks again for looking and please email, text or call with any other questions!

Tanner Foust gets eponymous hotted-up Ford Focus ST from Cobb Tuning

Thu, 14 Mar 2013

Racer and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust has partnered up with Cobb Tuning to create a special-edition Ford Focus ST. The limited-edition hatches will come packing a reflashed ECU, special intercooler, tweaked intake and freer-flowing exhaust for up to 20 percent more power than the stock creation. Cobb says that the changes should push the final dyno figure to above 300 horsepower. Buyers can also expect to find special carbon fiber aerodynamic bits on board along with a new grille, graphics and wheels. Cobb hasn't released pricing on this Tanner Foust Edition Ford Focus ST as of yet, but you can bet the whole kit won't be cheap.
Fortunately, the company will sell you bits and pieces from the overall package for your Ford, and word has it engineers are also whipping up a Foust Fiesta ST. Look for Cobb's Focus ST website to go live next month, complete with accurate specs and pricing. Until then, enjoy clicking through the gallery here. You can also check out the full press release below.

Justin Bell makes a horrible policeman

Mon, 11 Nov 2013

If you're wondering what type of person makes a good police officer, it seems a racecar driver doesn't. Let us rephrase that: Justin Bell, a racecar driver and the host of Motor Trend's World's Fastest Car Show, recently got behind the wheel of a 5.0-liter Ford Mustang police car with Sergeant Daniel Shrubb, co-founder of DRAGG (Drag Racing Against Gangs and Graffiti), and proved that his high-performance-driving skillset is a bit too aggressive for police duty.
While it's easy to get carried away in a Mustang GT, a patrol car driver must maintain some sort of restraint while pursuing a criminal, so as not to come off as a reckless driver to the public. We'll admit, some pursuit techniques are counter-intuitive to performance driving (stay off the gas in a lane-change exercise?), but Bell's judicious use of the handbrake can't be normal procedure.
Watch "The One With The Ford Mustang 5.0 Police Car" (yes, we caught the Friends reference too) below to see some shenanigans in one of Michigan's finest patrol cars.
