Sacramento, California, United States

Stuff i know. 

I bought this as a project with the intention of really pulling it apart for a family project and to allow me to take the family to shows and handle the normal suburbia truck type stuff. I have decided to go a different direction, the wife wants a wagon. 

It's a 1968 Ford F350 Crew Cab Long bed. Really clean truck has extra heavy duty load helper suspension in back. Previously had a monster in bed and over the cab camper that the previous owner used while prospecting a few weeks a year. the milage shows as 11XXX its probably not correct but the previous owner had several vehicles and only used this one for camping/prospecting so its possible. 

Previous owner removed camper before sale. Its not available or part of this sale. 

He added two extra saddle mount tanks in addition to the stock behind the seat tank so he could really get deep back country. I have no idea what the total capacity is. they can be switched manually by a small switch on the floor between the drivers seat and the door. This truck is a California truck, floors and frame are solid with surface rust only it has had a cheapo repaint to the stock white sometime in its past and some areas are thinning and a few bubbles are present.  Only one serious dent on drivers side bed and a few in the grill tailgate is in the bed in these pictures it is the original matching tailgate. The described dent will be shown in pics. The truck has the original 360 Fe and 4 speed the current motor is Frozen solid. If this auction doesn't meet the reserve I will basically pull it apart repaint and go nuts with the LMC catalog after I rebuild the 360 

Known issues
The 360 is frozen truck is not running. Will need engine rebuilt or replaced. the 360 is an Fe style motor so 352/360/390/428 will all drop right in and LMC sells the kits to allow a 460 or 289/351 swaps as well. 

there is one sizable dent see pics 

The only things I can see that are missing is the radio, and a few of the interior window handles knobs are missing the crank is there but the knob part is missing on a couple of the doors. Also the previous owner for some reason put the newer style chrome wheels on the front only.  I am currently hunting down a set of original steel wheels as I prefer them. if I can find a set of original wheels before auction ends Iw ill include them. The chrome is showing some pitting 

I have done my best to describe the item to the best of my ability I am not a professional if you have any questions please ask if you would like to inspect the vehicle please contact me to make arrangements I reserve the right to stop the auction if the vehicle sells locally first. The truck is free and clear in my name ready to go. 

No warranty 
No shipping 
Vehicle will not leave until funds are cleared.

#### ADDED INFO###


I HAVE ADDED PICS OF THE CAB MOUNTS AND THE FLOORS AND THE DRIP RAILS DUE TO A LOT OF EMAILS ASKING FOR THE INFO. 

I HAVE ALSO PAID THIS TRUCK CURRENT IN CA DMV THERE IS NO BACK FEES OR WAITING ON THE TITLE ITS ALL READY TO GO. UNFORTUNATELY THERE WERE SOME BACK FEES DUE TO PREV OWNER NEVER FILING NON OPP. I AM SURE YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT CA/DMV IS LIKE WHEN YOU DONT FOLLOW THIER RULES THAT IS WHY I HAVE A RESERVE SET. 

AS I MENTIONED IN THE ADD I PICKED THIS TRUCK UP JUST A WEEK OR SO AGO WITH THE INTENTION OF BUILDING A FAMILY CRUISER THATS WHY IT LOOKS SO DIRTY AND THERE IS STILL MOSS IN THE DRIP RAILS IN TAKING THESE PICS I FOUND THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND PBACK ARE NEAR PERFECT BUT THE PASSANGER SIDE DRIP RAIL HAS SOME DISCOLORATION. YOU CAN SEE THIS IN THE PICS IT LOOKS LIKE THE MOSS GREW UNDER THE PAINT. ALSO THE PREV OWNER HAD A HUGE CAMPER THAT THE SLEEPER PORTION WENT ALL THE WAY OVER THE CAB AND THEN IT WAS PARKED UP NEXT TO HIS HOUSE SO I AM THINKING THE MOSS JUST GREW BETTER IN THAT SHADE. ON TAPPING AND LOOKING I FOUND NO RUST THROUGH AND ON THE INSIDE ROOF SHOWS NO DISCOLORATION INSIDE. 


 WE WHERE AT A SHOW AND THE WIFE SAW A WAGON SHE HAS TO HAVE SO I AM SELLING THIS FOR THAT. ITS REALLY THE CLEANEST CREW I HAVE EVER HAD I JUST DONT HAVE THE ROOM FOR A WAGON AND THIS TO OR ID JUST KEEP IT.

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.

Ford adds 850 jobs to build 2015 F-150

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Pickup trucks tend not to advance at quite the same pace as the rest of the industry. That's what makes the new Ford F-150 so remarkable, jettisoning its old steel construction in favor of aluminum. It's a game changer that Ford is betting big on, and in anticipation of surging demand, the Blue Oval automaker is adding 850 new jobs to put the thing together.
Those 850 new employees will be centered at Ford's Rouge complex in Michigan - with 300 at Dearborn Stamping, 50 more at Dearborn Diversified and 500 at the Dearborn Truck facility, the latter of which has already kicked off what Ford describes as "the largest manufacturing transformation in decades." Old manufacturing equipment is being replaced with the latest technologies, and even the Ford Rouge Factory Tour is undergoing a complete overhaul.
The new jobs come as part of the commitments Ford made to the UAW in 2011 to create 12,000 hourly jobs in the United States by 2015 - a number which Ford has already exceeded at 14,000. Over 4,000 of those are centered in southeastern Michigan.

Sat, 02 Feb 2013

SEMA is more than nine months away, but the reveille bugle for the show has just sounded with Ford's call to aftermarket companies for its project-vehicle program. The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST and 2014 Transit Connect van and wagon are the cars The Blue Oval wants to feature, but applicants can submit project vehicles for any product except the GT500, the Raptor, or anything from Lincoln.
Submissions must be completed in two parts, the first being an email to Ford with an overview of the project, like vehicle theme, promotional plan and location display. The second part must be mailed in on company letterhead and gets down to the nuts and bolts of the vision and the provision of company bona fides. The complete proposal is due on March 1, winners will be notified by May 1. Click the link below to get all the details, and for show attendees, get ready to see some funky Fiestas and wild shaggin' wagons in Las Vegas come November.
