This thing is amazing.
I am the second owner of this truck. It has been in Northern California it's whole life and always stored inside. I would say it fits into the category of trucks with a "patina" type paint surface due to the tiny, tiny bit of worn through paint but from 20 feet away, you can't tell the paint isn't prefect.
It even still has the original Car Lite windshield that came with the truck!
It has never been repainted. The rubber is also original and therefore is aged and cracked in places and could use replacement. I didn't change the rubber because it adds to the originality in my opinion. There is a slight dent in the RF fender but it really is a pushed in spot that did not even damage the paint and it does not show up in the pictures. Another tiny dent in the lower part of the tailgate where the PO missed hooking up his boat to the tow hitch. Otherwise, the body is amazing. There is absolutely NO RUST! The bed was covered by a shell for awhile so even the paint in the bed is fantastic.
The engine is the original 352 CI V8, a C6 automatic transmission that was rebuilt about 9k miles ago by the PO (I have the receipt), 2WD, long bed. I did a valve job on the heads and added hardened valve seats. The engine leaks a little here and there but nothing bad at all.
I did change a few things to make it more drivable: I added HEI style distributor, added used stainless hub caps and trim rings to the stock wheels. I replaced the stock front drums with the front power disk brakes, booster and dual master cylinder and proportioning valve, column, and power steering from a 1973 Ford F100. I added new stock size tires, replaced the original floor mat with a new reproduction. I replaced the old seat cover with a new seat cover with Ford embossed logo as original. I added a new chrome rear bumper and removed the old Barden type shown in the pictures.
It has a clear California title and the registration is good until May of 2014.
FYI: The newer radio works but the prior owner cut the dash to install it.
I work in Canada so give me time to respond to emails, etc. The truck is located near Sacramento and I can arrange to have it viewed with some notice. This is a once in a lifetime chance to find an unmolested, drivable, original painted vintage truck. you won't be disappointed. Every time I am back in California, this is my daily driver. (all my other cars are older!)
I'm selling it because I have too many projects and I am tired of paying for storage. My 65 Ford F100 Crew Cab is next on the list!
I also replaced the shocks and the exhaust. If you need additional pictures I can arrange to email them to you. (the last few pictures I uploaded show the new rear bumper and the trim rings and the engine shot. Oh yeah, and I use the truck as you can see!
You will have to arrange shipping but I could accommodate taking to somewhere in the nearby area if you needed me to. Good luck bidding.

Watch divers pull 1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1, Mazda RX-7 from a river
Thu, Apr 2 2020It’s like the ultimate barn find, only swap out the relatively ideal dry confines of a barn for a watery grave. Adventures with Purpose, a YouTube channel devoted to the exploits of a group of divers in Oregon that specializes in pulling submerged cars from the water, recently found six vehicles in the Tualatin River, near Portland. The most notable finds? A 1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1 fastback and a Mazda RX-7 sports car, plus a Chevrolet LUV pickup, which is not shown being pulled from the water. As you might expect, neither are exactly in top condition, with the badly rusted Mustang basically disintegrating into scrap pieces as itÂ’s pulled onto a flatbed truck parked on a boat ramp. The RX-7, meanwhile, is caked with mud, its windshield and roof crumpled, but itÂ’s basically intact. A hat tip goes to CarBuzz for spotting the videos. The divers use inflatable salvage bags to help raise the vehicles. They removed the MustangÂ’s rusted and encrusted V8 first — the '73 model came with either 302 or 351 engines — and had to pause to remove some of the thick mud that had built up inside the car. Other things they found from both pulls include an old sledgehammer, a stop sign and a rusted Washington state license plate. This content is hosted by a third party.

The whole Mach 1 salvage operation took two days. “A lot of you are going to be a bit upset at how destroyed the Mustang Mach 1 became after we tried removing it from the river,” the team wrote in its description. “In our defense, there was an extra 8,000 pounds of mud inside the car, along with the Mustang being underwater in the river for over 40 years.” The Adventures with Purpose team says it has recovered 326 cars, six guns, two bodies and a tractor, among things.

Road tripping in a Ford Fusion Energi PHEV
Fri, Aug 28 2015Following my earlier Chevy Cruze Diesel trip and recent press-launch drives of Volvo XC90 and Hyundai Sonata plug-in hybrids, an opportunity arose for another road trip. I wanted to do it in a plug-in hybrid, primarily to learn whether its higher price vs. gas-powered and conventional hybrid versions of the same vehicle – is justified by its capability to operate as an EV, burning no fuel at all with its engine off, at least for short distances. I've been skeptical of plug-in parallel hybrids. As I've written before, I've been skeptical of plug-in parallel hybrids because they are generally good for very limited electric miles (typically 10-15, depending on driving style, terrain, and temperature) at fairly leisurely speeds before their engines kick in. But I've recently spent time in two new examples – the 2016 Volvo XC90 T8 and the 2016 Hyundai Sonata PHEV – that offer more EV range, mostly because they tote bigger (thus more expensive) batteries. Both promise 24-25 miles of battery-only range, and the latter can recharge on the fly. Unfortunately, neither was yet available for my July road trip, nor was a Honda or Toyota plug-in, but Ford anted up a Fusion Energi borrowed from its Marketing department. "The state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery and electric motor combined with the gasoline engine offers maximum efficiency," says Ford about it. "This strategy offers the best of both worlds, providing the 2016 Ford Fusion Energi the capability to be driven as an electric vehicle for short trips and as a hybrid for longer trips." I've been a fan of Ford's Fusion since the first-generation debuted a decade back, and the handsome Gen II version launched for 2013 has been Detroit's best answer to the Honda Accord/Toyota Camry/Nissan Altima Japanese juggernaut in the popular US mid-size sedan segment. Beyond its leading-man looks, it offers an array of highly-functional features (some exclusive), a choice of three gas engines (a base 2.5-liter four and 1.6-liter and 2.0-liter direct-injected, turbocharged EcoBoost fours) and both parallel and plug-in parallel hybrid versions. The regular hybrid originally boasted 47 mpg before Ford adjusted it to be more realistic. The gas engines drive through a 6-speed automatic transmission (a 6-speed manual is standard with the 1.6-liter EcoBoost), the hybrids through an electric continuously variable transaxle (eCVT), and all-wheel drive is available with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four.
Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
