The Marti Report has the options listed including Am Radio Exterior Group and tinted glass. (all the green tinted glass looks in nice condition with all the window parts and scissors included)

The car has had a lot of metal work done already.and there more welding to be done.  It is  a project. 
Here is a list of how solid the bases of the car is. Even though the metal work was done before I got the car, It has new battery tray. front aprons on the left and right are new.  The right rear apron needs a repair patch on top behind the shock tower. The shock towers are great on both sides. The front rails are great. The floor boards are new and the frame supports. The rear rails, inner wheel wells, rear drops, and rear floors are new and welded in. The gas tank seems new. This sheet metal listed is all welded securely in place. Now I do not know how perfectly straight it is because I did not have the car at the time it was welded. It seem close,  . Yet to be welded will be the outer rear wheel wells.   The door latch posts need to be welded back in ( I have those original ones). Then the back panels need to be put in.  The inner and outer rockers are great. Missing the rocker chrome trim. The doors are original and in wonderful conditioned and primed. The rear full quarters and front fenders are new aftermarket parts. The rear panel is new. front and rear lower valances are original and are in usable condition. I have bolted the car together for a few of the pictures so that you can get an idea of the car as a whole. You can see which of the original pieces are good and which might need to be replaced. I have also taken pictures of the car with the quarters not on so you can see all that still needs to be done.
The frame for the convertible top works well. The canvas will need to be replaced of course. I left the material on the frame so that the original items would not be disturbed.
The Original hood might needs to be replaced or worked because there is rust through in the corners. near the window. I have a couple of rear deck lids that come with the car. The best deck lid was not original to the car, but it is an great very little surface rust on it that will work better than an aftermarket decklid.
I did get under the dash to look at the cowl vent which looks like the divers side should be repaired

In the engine bay it looks wonderful, I dropped the engine back into the car for easy transport. The engine will need to be rebuilt most likely. I do not think it is the original engine because the date codes seems to be a few months earlier that the car. It still is a 289 and the C-4 transmission seem in great shape, and the torque converter is in great condition. ( the fly wheel and torque converter are not in the car). I was told the crank in the engine was not good. There is also a engine block with the correct date code that goes with the car. ( maybe that block has a good crank). The car has Power steering, you can see the pump in one of the pictures I think. The car has been equipment with front disc brake, I have no idea if the brakes works, the lines are all hooked up. the car rolls around and steers wonderfully. It will have to be pushed up onto a car hauler. The transmission is not hooked up, so you will have to use tie downs so the car does not roll
I have taken pictures of all the items that go with this original car. One of the only thing that I can tell is missing are the interior rear quarter trim-those are the rear arm rests. You'll need to recover cover the original seats most likely. Most of the parts are usable as is, or you can replace them with shiney new bits.
I will unclip the rear quarter for transportation and put them inside the car. The doors do not latch shut yet because the latch pillars are not welded back in yet, but I will secure the door shut. The front fenders have a few bolts in them so they will be fine for transport. I will take off the front grill and headlight buckets and put them in the car, because they are just zipped tied to the fenders for the pictures.
The seats are bolted in and the dash is secured and hasn't been taken out, so it will travel fine. the Marti Report will come with the car along with the CLEAN and CLEAR TITLE

The car has been under restoration for many years now. I got the car a little while ago, but I have other more pressing things to go. I do not weld, and my welding friend just moved, and I do not want to send the car to  body shop and pay those prices. So the wife says sell the car. My lose could be your gain. I do know that the original C-code V-8 cars are the ones to invest time and money into because they bring the better money. I love this highly sought after color combination. These car sell for $25,000-30,000 when done nicely. This car already has had most of the back breaking work done already. there is still a lot of fit and finishing work to do, and lot more welding, but this is a VERY SOLID car, don't waste time on some old rust bucket.
I have taken a lot of pictures. Email if you would like me to send any other pictures directly to you email of specific areas of the cars of different parts.
Serious buyers are welcome and encouraged to see the car in person and take their own measurements, and see all the parts before the end of the auction, because at the end of the auction the last bidder is the winner and that is exactly what I will take for the car. The car is selling at no reserve 
and is being sold as is.

I need a $500 deposit within 2 days of the end of the auction. And the balance in cash or Bank transfer with-in 7 days and before pick-up.
Shipping and transportation is totally up to the buyer.
I will sell the car internationally. but the money needs to be in my hand before I release the car or the title. I can help talk to talk to your transportation company to help with timing of delivery.
I think I described the car the best I could and I'm sure I forgot something , but the pictures should help. ask me any questions you want.
Thank you for looking and bidding

2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty is class-leading once again

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Time for everyone to feign surprise - Ford has just announced that it has the increased horsepower and torque levels of its 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel V8 engine for 2015. As you'd expect, the Blue Oval is claiming class-leading figures of 440 hp (up from 400) and 860 pound-feet (up from 800), and that's enough to enable Ford's F-450 Super Duty model to tow as much as 31,200 pounds, which, again, the automaker claims is class leading.
Now, it should be noted that the max rating quoted above is achieved with the Ford F-450. The 2015 F-350, which is perhaps a better comparison to the Ram 3500 HD pickup that claimed the towing crown in 2013 at an even 30,000 pounds, is capped at 26,500 pounds, either with a gooseneck or when towing a fifth-wheel trailer. In any case, it's going to take a load the size of Godzilla to make any of the current crop of fullsize heavy-duty pickup trucks break into a sweat. For those keeping track, Chevy rates its 2015 Silverado HD at a maximum of 23,200 pounds.
Ford's newfound pulling power comes courtesy of a larger turbocharger for its in-house Power Stroke engine, new fuel injector tips and, we'd assume, retuned computer controls. Besides the engine enhancements, the F-350 gets a wider front track for 2015 and new front springs, while the F-450 gains commercial-grade 19.5-inch wheels and tires, new rear U-joints, leaf springs, stabilizer bars and shocks. The steering and brake systems have also been upgraded.

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.

Nuclear-powered concept cars from the Atomic Age

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

In the 1950s and early 60s, the dawn of nuclear power was supposed to lead to a limitless consumer culture, a world of flying cars and autonomous kitchens all powered by clean energy. In Europe, it offered the then-limping continent a cheap, inexhaustible supply of power after years of rationing and infrastructure damage brought on by two World Wars.
The development of nuclear-powered submarines and ships during the 1940s and 50s led car designers to begin conceptualizing atomic vehicles. Fueled by a consistent reaction, these cars would theoretically produce no harmful byproducts and rarely need to refuel. Combining these vehicles with the new interstate system presented amazing potential for American mobility.
But the fantasy soon faded. There were just too many problems with the realities of nuclear power. For starters, the powerplant would be too small to attain a reaction unless the car contained weapons-grade atomic materials. Doing so would mean every fender-bender could result in a minor nuclear holocaust. Additionally, many of the designers assumed a lightweight shielding material or even forcefields would eventually be invented (they still haven't) to protect passengers from harmful radiation. Analyses of the atomic car concept at the time determined that a 50-ton lead barrier would be necessary to prevent exposure.
