1962 FORD E100 Econoline pick up truck

This is such a cool truck - I love it, but cant keep it

Fun project !

Runs and drives very well (does need work)

It's a straight 6 motor- pretty sure the original

May have been rebuilt at some point because it runs smoothly with no smoke no noises. Starts right up and idles smoothly. No high temps and good oil pressure

Clutch is good, shifts well and all gears are good

Steering is tight, no wobbles and tracks straight

Needs brakes- stops with hand brake

Good matching tires and wheels

Some lights work, most gages work, wipers work, HORN HONKS 

Currently have to put a screw driver in the key hole to start - I have a keyed switch to install and a box of parts including 2 new wheel cylinders, air filter cover, some chrome and misc other parts

Heater box has been bypassed but is included. Was removed for metal work on floor

The body is very straight. Has the usual rust and plenty of it but the forward floor of the cab has new metal. Needs more work behind the seats. (all flat work) Doors and surrounding area in cab are pretty good. Doors open, close and latch very nicely. The bed is not bad for it's age - rockers are rusty. Rear gate is bad and corners to each side need help.

Ill try to get a pic of the bed under the mats

The frame is very good, especially the main rails. One of the 15 inch frame arms has rust.

Bent bumpers (can make straight )and mirror frames are included

The metal work needed is very straight forward and  sheet metal parts are available new- parts are  same as E100 Vans

If you can weld this truck is for you

All glass is good

Obviously with such a truck I don't know the actual miles

I think 127,000 (Odom says 27,000)

Title  provided upon full payment

It's a cool old truck and all stated is correct. It's a 1962 and it does need work

Please bid only if you sincerely want the truck and will pay for it and come get it within timeframe described below. A 400 deposit within 48 hrs  (paypal or overnight mail) and full payment within 7 days of end of auction. I don't care if it sits here for a month (more if we talk) as long as it's paid for in full.

It's a cool old truck and I want it to have a happy home so bid accordingly

Happy bidding and Good luck

Hope you like it!

How the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor became a reality

Wed, 01 May 2013

The camouflaged Ford F-150 SVT Raptor prototype captured above blazing its way across the desert during a test run left company engineers giggling in amazement, reveals Jamal Hameedi in a new Autoweek video. Ford's global performance vehicle chief engineer, accompanied by senior exterior designer Bruce Williams, sat down with the publication to discuss the concept and development of the automaker's super off-road F-150.
Designing a high-performance pickup in 2008, right when the cost of gasoline was going through the roof, seemed insane at the time, but the team pushed forward with the innovative vehicle regardless. The interview includes plenty of Ford B-roll footage as visual candy, and the conversations include discussions about exterior design, ride comfort, anti-lock brake tuning, suspension engineering, weight reduction and why it was necessary to make the Raptor visually different than Ford's standard F-150. The model's origin story is very interesting, and you can learn more about it by watching the video below.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

BMW V8-powered Ford Model A is the definition of Hot Rod

Thu, 20 Jun 2013

Today, hotrodding has a pretty staid definition. Take one classic American car, add one classic American V8, sprinkle with tire smoke and you pretty much have every hot rod to roll out of a shop in the last 40 years. Mike Borroughs knows it wasn't always this way. Once upon a time, getting your bucket to go faster meant grabbing whatever parts were lazing about the yard, bolting them together with a bit of ingenuity and laughing your way down the quarter mile. It's in that spirit that Burroughs built his 1928 Ford Model A.
Rather than turn to the tired flathead or the common Chevrolet small block, Burroughs plucked a 4.0-liter V8 from a 1995 BMW 7 Series. With 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, the engine has no trouble shuffling the old A around town. He had to build a custom chassis to get everything to cooperate, but the result is a 1,500-pound heathen that looks built to harass dry lake beds. You can check it out in the video below. Be warned, the soundtrack by Hanni el Khatib may not be safe for work - awesomeness of this caliber rarely is.
