1979 Ford F-100 Custom Cam, 460, Fast, Loud, House Of Kolor Paint, Beautiful on 2040-cars
Jackson, Mississippi, United States
|
This F100 comes with a 460-V8 that the appraiser documented is "hard to find." The body is good and the paint is iin excellent condition. According to the prior owner, the engine and transmission is like new and only has approximately 3,000 miles on it. New tires and wheels (less than 5000 miles), new bedliner, diamond plate tool box, and after market detachable face stereo.
This truck is beautiful. It gets lots of compliments and is a real head turner. The pictures do not do it justice. It has a 5 stage House of Kolor paint job on it. The paint stage has a layer of lavender pearl chips in it. So it sparkles and has a beautiful shine to it. It has a custom tan leather interior, Big Block 460 with a cam, MSD ignition and headers. It is an automatic with a custom floor shift.
The truck runs great. It is loud and fast. At 70, it doesnt shake or run rough. I really have nothing to list in the way of needing work. The only thing to add is that it does not have AC, but you can get the kit to add it on for less than $400. It also has a regulator on it as it sits to help with fuel mileage. It can easily be unistalled if you want to really get on the gas. But, I used this as my daily driver and prefered to just cruise around in it. Its been a great vehicle. The prior owner has a professional shop, built it himself, and did it right. He had over $14,000 in receipts for the restoration. |

Ford reports $3B profit in Q4, $6.9B for the year
Tue, 28 Jan 2014Good news out of Dearborn today, as Ford announced $3 billion in profit for the last quarter of 2013, a 90-percent increase over the same period of 2012. Net income for all of last year, meanwhile, jumped to $7.2 billion from $5.7 billion in 2012, while pre-tax profits sat at a decade-topping $6.9 billion for all of 2013.
The results of the substantial profit increases are bigger profit-sharing checks for UAW employees. How big? A record $8,800 on average for 47,000 UAW workers, making 2013 the biggest year for profit sharing in Ford history. In total, $414 million will be paid as part of the profit-sharing scheme.
Now, it should be pointed out that a fair portion of Ford's Q4 profits were due to tax benefits, totaling $2.1 billion, according to Automotive News. Total profits would have also been higher, had there not been a significant recall on the Escape, as well as plant issues in South America.
RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter and Ford Transit can haul on the track
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Line up any two comparable vehicles, and eople are going to want to race them. Need proof? In its latest track battle, Auto Express wants to know which commercial vehicle can lap a circuit faster - a Ford Transit or Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Let's face it, neither of these European vans were ever meant to be near the track unless they are delivering a racecar and a ton of parts for a fun weekend, but it's massively fun to watch them give it a go anyway.
The one thing that Auto Express really illustrates here is the modern marvel that is stability control. The driver hops curves, and these big vans lean in the corners like your friend walking home from a long night at the bar. However, because of the amazing stability systems, the vans mostly keep all of their wheels planted and never seem close to getting sloppy, despite their behemoth size.
Unfortunately, the two vans aren't exactly fairly paired. The Ford has a dual rear axle and a few other advantages over the Mercedes, but it's still hilarious to watch them go. Even better, the host breaks down everything happening behind the wheel like these commercial vehicles were two Porsches. Enjoy watching this very unorthodox battle between Ford and Mercedes.
