Colville, Washington, United States

1966 Ford F250 Camper Special Custom Cab customized shop truck.  Original paint on this solid and straight old truck.  Equipped with independent front suspension, power steering, power 12" disc breaks and a massive front sway bar thanks to a 1994 Chevrolet Cop Car.  The rear end and 700r4 overdrive automatic transmission are also from this donor car.  Motor is a good sound 1975 Cadillac 500 with rear sump pan from an Eldorado.  This makes the truck drive, corner, handle and stop just like the Caprice Cop Car that donated the parts.  The torque monster Cad motor coupled to 700r4 makes for lots of tire smoke and great cruising.  Pretty good fuel mileage as well.  I put this truck together about 4 years ago and have driven it over 15,000 trouble free miles.  Never given me any trouble what so ever.  Starts right up even when it was 15 degrees this past winter.  Lots of new parts when built.  New windshield and gasket, breaks all around.  New radiator, hosed and heater hosed.  Flushed the gas tank and new fuel lines and fuel pump.  New dual exhaust system with glass packs and exit just in front of the rear wheels.  New P235/60r15 on new torque thrust polished wheels on front.  New P295/50R15 on torque thrust polishes wheels on rear.  Front rims are 8" wide and rear are 9".  Rear rubber is 10" wide at the thread.  The Cad motor will still smoke the tires for 2 blocks if you want.  Equipped with a line lock and a B&M torque converter lock up.   All the glass is good and wing vents and windows roll up and down as they should.  Doors and tail gate all close nice and fit good.  All gauges work along with the dome light, horn, door locks and turn signals.  Auxiliary fuel tanks in the box have been converted to lockable storage boxes and they work great when filled with ice for cold drinks.  They have drain holes in the bottoms. This truck needs nothing.  It's ready to go anywhere in the U.S.  New seat, door panels, headliner and door pulls.  Look at the floor rubber.  It is original and still in great shape.  I am sure that I am forgetting something's but that pretty much describes the truck.  I would be glad to answer any question that you might have.  Feel free to come drive this truck.  I can be reached at 509-684-5723.  If you need more pictures, just ask.  I own a small rod shop here in Colville and have done 4 other similar trucks for local customers and have had no complaints.  Just finished a 65 short box for my new shop truck so Rusty is for sale.  Willing to work with the new owner as far as shipping goes.  Short term storage is something we can talk about.

Ford recalls select Explorer, E-Series vans

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Just a few days ago we brought you news that Ford had issued a recall on 28,000 units of the Edge crossover for problems related to the fuel line. But now the Blue Oval has issued recall notices on two more of its larger vehicles.
The first relates to the Explorer, 395 examples of which from the 2011 and 2012 model years were found to have problems with their steering systems if they underwent service after September 1, 2013. An apparent software glitch could lock the steering gear, preventing the driver from steering the vehicle and thereby increasing the risk of a crash. As a result, Ford dealers are being instructed to check their records to identify the problematic vehicles and bring them in to have the steering gear replaced. Details of the recall can be found in the PDF linked here.
The second problem revolves around E-Series vans that may develop bubbles in their windshields under hot temperatures. The decrease in visibility through the problematic windshield could - you guessed it - "increase the risk of a crash." As a result, Ford is calling in 4,532 units of the E-150, E-250, E-350 and E-450 vans built in the relatively short window between May 12 and May 26, 2011. Details of this recall can be found in the notice below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Project Ugly Horse: Part VIII

Fri, 17 May 2013

Now With More EcoBoost
There's an EcoBoost 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in there somewhere, and it's headed straight for Ugly Horse.
For the second time in my life, I'm staring at an engine in the back of a truck with no concept of how to get it safely into the garage by my lonesome. The first time this happened, I dragged home a $300 International 345 V8 in the back of my Scout Terra only to discover that the bounds of my manliness terminated well before my ability to muscle that 800-pound cast iron block out of the pickup bed.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013



That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
