Great old solid 1965 Ford F100, one of the best years of the classic Ford Pick Up Truck. I bought this from its long-time owner last year and did quite a bit of work to get it back in great shape. It has had a thorough going through mechanically. It had the engine gone through several years back under its last owner, but we gave it a refresh. In the engine bay, the carb was gone through, it has a new fuel pump, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, hoses, belt, alternator, voltage regulator, and much more. The brakes were completely gone through with new master cylinder, Wheel cylinders, brake shoes, springs, hoses and brake light switch. The wiring was gone through and it has several new switches as well as other parts to make everything work like it should such as the wipers, lights, heater etc. The wheels were redone/painted with tires and new chrome lug nuts and trim rings.

It was never my intention to redo the paint on the truck, I really liked the patina just the way it was and just cleaned and preserved it. On the interior, the steering wheel was repaired and refinished and the seat was completely rebuilt with foam, coils and new all leather upholstery in a very high quality thick leather (like in a King Ranch pick up) and fitted with Alligator hide inserts. This was an expensive upgrade, but looks amazing! The rest of the interior is orginal, and in good shape.

If you are looking for an inexpensive classic truck, this is a huge bang for your buck. I am selling for a fraction of what I have in it due to personal circumstances. Please bid to buy and be serious. Someone will get a great deal. Its of course no where near perfect, but thats not the point of the truck. It looks good and has had lots of $$ spent. Just needs your finishing touches to make it your own.

Man has surgery to remove T-Bird turn signal that's been in his arm for 51 years

Fri, Jan 2 2015

In 1963, real estate agent Arthur Lampitt was driving a new Ford Thunderbird near East Peoria, Illinois on his way to an appointment when he collided head-on with a truck. A massive accident that was so bad that it was originally reported as a fatal crash, Lampitt suffered a broken hip and that became the focus of doctors' efforts. In fact, no one noticed the fact that the turn-signal stalk had been broken off the steering column and had lodged itself in Lampitt's arm. Fast-forward to around ten years ago, when Lampitt set off a courthouse metal detector because of a "slender object, about the size of a pencil" in his arm. Despite that unnerving discovery, the doctor who examined Lampitt said that since it didn't hurt, he needn't worry about it. This year, however, it did start hurting and the affected arm started to bulge. Lampitt decided to have the issue seen to, and suspected it might have something to do with his 1963 accident. When he looked through photos of the wreck taken by a friend, he noticed the turn-signal stalk of the Thunderbird missing and figured that was the culprit. After a 45-minute outpatient surgery, the surgeon verified it: a slim, slightly bent and corroded, seven-inch metal cylinder with a trumpeted end. The surgeon said a protective pocket had formed around it, which is why it could remain in Lampitt's arm so long, but it was still unusual - "We see all kinds of foreign objects like nails or pellets, but usually not this large." Lampitt, who is expected to make a full recovery, says he might make a keychain out of it, once he's done just holding it.

Has the 2015 Ford Mustang gained hundreds of pounds?

Sun, 01 Jun 2014

Automakers face competing interests when it comes to developing a new generation of vehicle. On the one hand, companies want to build their cars to be safer and better handling, with more equipment and maybe even larger dimensions over the model it's replacing. On the other hand, they strive to keep weight down to the benefit of both performance and fuel consumption. Usually something has to give, and in the case of the new 2015 Ford Mustang, those efforts may have resulted in a weight penalty of two or three hundred pounds.
This according to Blue Oval modifier Steeda Autosports, which states that "the 2015 Mustang ended up gaining 200-300 pounds in this remake". Despite the Mustang not being on the market yet, it would appear the leading Ford aftermarketer has been given early access to the 2015 model to help jumpstart its tuning efforts (a rather common development among trusted tuners). If Steeda's assertion is accurate, that would make the challenge of getting the new pony car up to speed for both Ford and aftermarket customizers like Steeda that much greater.
We're waiting for official word from Ford on the veracity of Steeda's claim, but if true, it's bound to be a bit of disappointing news for legions of Blue Oval performance enthusiasts. Watch this space for more.
