1963 Ford F-100 stepside. This truck is almost rust free. It has a tiny place on the hood and one cab corner has already been repaired. The right fender had a dent and the previous owner tried to repair it without success, I left it that way until painting time, that will be an easy fix. The left front fender is new.
The truck is black, the previous owner was going to paint it yellow so he painted the hubs, steps, and motor yellow. A can of black will fix that.
The inside is in excellent condition. The seat is new, just back from the shop, (black seat grey trim, all leather).
I have the hood ornaments/emblems (new).
The bed is in great condition. It does need 1 board and refinishing.
Aproximately 7,000 - 7500 miles on a rebuilt 223 6 cyl. 3 speed transmission, the shifter was moved to the floor, by the previous owner who said he was having some shifting problems from the column. I installed new clutch arm bushings and a few other things. It does need new tie rod ends ( I think I have some that will fit).
The rear end is a 9" with 411 gears. I have a center section (3rd member) with 350 gears that would work better for long distant driving, (THIS 3RD MEMBER DOES NOT COME with the truck, but can be purchased).
This truck cranks right up everytime, and would make a great daily driver just as it is. Or, you could paint it, install new side window rubber, carpet or rubber mat and have a very very nice old truck for weekend drives, car shows, or drive it to work. With just a few minor things it will look and drive like new.
I have too many projects right now needing my attention, ( 6 ) others all of which need work, and some will be sold later but none are for sale now. The only reason for selling the 63 is to use the money to work on some of the others.
If you have any questions please contact me for a phone number. If you would like more pictures just ask. It can be driven if you live within driving distance.

Production of Shelby GT350 is coming to an end
Fri, 26 Jul 2013One Autoblog staffer who drove the limited-edition Shelby GT350 wrote it probably was the best Mustang he'd driven, but, at some point, the fun had to come to an end: December 31 is the last day the GT350 will be available to order.
The GT350's option list has evolved much like it did for the original 1965-67 GT350. For 2011, the 45th Anniversary edition only came in coupe form and was painted white with blue stripes, just as with the 1965 car. The 2012 GT350 was offered as a coupe or convertible, and three colors were added to the option list, just like the 1966 model. For 2013, more colors and options were added in addition to equipment and styling updates, which resulted in Wilwood instead of Baer brakes. No major changes were made for the 2014 model. From the first car in 2011, customers have been able to choose between three different configurations for their 5.0-liter V8: naturally aspirated with 440 horsepower, supercharged with 525 hp (with warranty) or supercharged with 624 hp (without warranty).
"When we unveiled this latest version of the Shelby GT350, we promised it would be built for a limited time to preserve its collectability and value," states John Luft, president of Shelby American. He may have a point, because the original GT350, which also had a limited production run, is among the most valuable muscle cars in the world.
Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost sales robust in early going
Tue, 13 May 2014Okay, okay, okay, so I was just a smidge wrong. Those that read my review of the Ford Fiesta with the new 1.0-liter, EcoBoost engine will know that while I really enjoyed the torquey little three-cylinder, I was concerned that Ford's decision to force 1.0-liter owners into a manual transmission, steel wheels and one trim level might hurt sales of the new engine. I was also concerned that the promised 45-mile-per-gallon highway rating wouldn't be enough to tempt buyers into trying an engine that's so far outside of what the general public is use to. My concerns, though, seem to have been for naught.
While not doing a booming business on the triple-equipped Fiesta, Ford is seeing a take rate of four to eight percent per month in the engine's first few months on sale. Now, four to eight percent might not sound like a lot - if, like last year, the Fiesta sells around 71,000 units, there'd be barely 5,600 1.0-liter models on the road. It is also small potatoes relative to the take rate on EcoBoost-equipped vehicles across the Ford range, which US sales analyst Erich Merkle estimates to be roughly 35 to 40 percent of retail sales. Still, according to The Detroit News, the 1.0-liter is getting adopted at roughly the same rate as the sparkling Fiesta ST, which should be a solid indication of just how well this little engine is doing.
The 1.0-liter's success "really speaks volumes, not just to what we're doing with the Fiesta, but with EcoBoost in general," Merkle told Autoblog.
