This is a 1965 Ford F-100 truck with a new 351 Cleveland V8 engine, (less than 500 miles on it). It is a beautiful truck that runs strong. The Transmission was replaced with a C4automatic using the original 3 on the tree lever. There is no neutral safety switch. New drum brakes, good original manual steering, 5 new tires, steel wheels and battery. The truck has been newly painted using 1960's era Volkswagon Dove Grey (blue grey in appearance) with an off white top using 2000 Mini Cooper Off White. Interior used the same paint. The seat is original and needs bottom redone, back is very good condition, original rubber floor mats, interior is lined with sound proofing matting to deaden road noise. Headliner is new, the fibre board grey type. No interior dome light, space for one in rear of headliner. All new African hardwood bed lumber and new painted steel runners. All new stainless steel fasteners. This is a great truck but not to be confused with a "restored" vehicle. Everything was done right but this was not a frame up restoration. There are some things still to be done and are listed in this description. To my knowledge it has never been in an accident and all of the body parts are rust free and original. I was told that it lived its life as a yard truck at a lumber company in So. Cal but I have no record of that. The speedometer says 29500 but was not working when I bought the truck and still not.. It originally had a 6 cylinder three speed manual transmission. The gentleman I bought it from had the new 351 Cleveland and C4 in his shop and I had him install them along with new radiator, carburetor, stainless exhaust, brakes, distributor ignition wires and plugs. The heater inside the cab just went out so is disconnected from engine with plugs in the supply water hoses. The turn indicators all work as do the wipers. The truck needs a passenger-side wiper arm and a rear left brake light cover. (may have in time for sale but currently do not have). There is a hole for an antenae but there is no radio so some previous owner must have had radio in glove box, (latch is loose so that's my guess why). The only dent is pictured on back of cab where lumber was rested, (dropped" is my guess by a previous owner.

NHTSA closes Ford F-150 EcoBoost acceleration probe
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Typically when we report on the findings of an investigation from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, it's because the government body has discovered a safety issue and prescribed a recall. In this case, however, NHTSA has closed an investigation into a reported performance deficit without ever getting to the recall stage.
The issue revolves around the Ford F-150 - specifically those equipped with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine - of which some 360,000 were built in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 model years. After receiving an initial 95 complaints, NHTSA opened an investigation last May - almost a year ago - into the reported issue of reduced engine power under hard acceleration. The agency has since received a total of 525 such complaints, and Ford itself reported receiving over 4,000.
Together, NHTSA and Ford determined that the problem resulted from cylinders misfiring, an issue itself stemming from water getting into the charge air cooler (CAC) mated to the turbochargers. In particularly humid or rainy conditions, water was found to get into the CAC, causing some of the cylinders to misfire, which in turn triggered the ECU to disable those cylinders in order to protect the catalytic converter from damage.
Ford Police Interceptors win acceleration war against Dodge, Chevy
Thu, 17 Oct 2013Just last month, Ford announced its first-ever non-pursuit-rated version of the Police Interceptor sedan for agencies looking to maximize fuel economy, but that doesn't mean that Ford is giving up on chasing down the bad guys. While the Dodge Charger can lay claim to the fastest lap time at the Grattan Raceway test facility held by the Michigan State Police, the results are now in for the Police Vehicle Evaluation acceleration tests. And Ford's Police Interceptor duo (sedan and utility) came out on top.
In the acceleration tests, Ford says that the Taurus-based PI Sedan with the newly available 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 was the quickest among prospective police cars in both 0-60 and 0-100 mile per hour times. The sedan posted a 0-60 time of 5.66 seconds with all-wheel drive and 5.71 seconds with front-wheel drive, besting V8-powered competitors like the Chevy Caprice and Dodge Charger by more than 0.3 seconds. These rivals close the gap on the AWD sedan in the 0-100 test with the Ford taking 13.5 seconds compared to the Chevy's time of 14.35 and the Dodge's time of 14.7.
As for utility vehicles, the Explorer-based PI Utility, which accounts for 60 percent of Ford's police vehicle sales, essentially went head-to-head with the V8-powered Chevy Tahoe with similar results. Equipped with the new EcoBoost engine option, this big SUV hit 60 mph in just 6.28 seconds and 100 mph in 15.51 seconds compared to times of 8.22 seconds and 21.95 seconds, respectively, for the Tahoe. Other important tests in the PVE include braking and top speed, but while no automakers have stepped up to boast about their numbers in either of these categories, Ford's images show that the V8 Caprice had the highest top speed of the cars at 155 mph while the Tahoe's 139-mph speed made it the fastest utility vehicle.
Ford bringing 10 custom Transit Connects to SEMA
Tue, 29 Oct 2013With 57 vehicles planned for its SEMA display, it comes as little surprise that Ford has plenty of teasers for its show cars. After showing us what it has in store for the Mustang, Fiesta and Focus ST, now we're getting a look at some of the custom creations based on the redesigned 2014 Transit Connect van.
These nine Transit Connects are decked out to various degrees of customization, but our favorite might be the chopped and lowered Transit Connect from Mob Steel (shown above), which has a similar slammed stance that we see on some custom VW Buses. On the opposite extreme, LGE & CTS Motorsports has jacked up a Transit Connect to make a Cross Country cruiser that we wouldn't mind taking on a road trip.
There are seven other teasers from various companies, and you can check them all out in the gallery above or in the press release below. Ford is also promising a tenth Transit Connect for SEMA, so stay tuned for that as well.
