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.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt
Tue, 03 Sep 2013Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.
2015 Ford Focus Sedan is fresh-faced and ready to defend its Most Popular crown
Wed, 09 Apr 2014Ford has made an art of deeper-than-normal midlife updates since the 2010 Fusion, a strategy that has allowed it to keep models looking fresher in showrooms for longer without needing full redesigns. Instead of slight touchups to light fixtures, new paint colors and perhaps new wheel patterns, Ford has been digging deeper, with significant sheetmetal changes and very different front-end looks, along with an increased emphasis on new in-car technologies to keep models vibrant. Other automakers are following this trend, and Ford itself is continuing on the path with this new 2015 Focus Sedan.
There's a handsome new SE Sport Package that includes a firmer touring suspension, modest body kit and 17-inch wheels.
We first saw this sleek Aston Martin-like nose fitted to a Focus at the Geneva Motor Show last month, but Ford only showed the new look on the five-door hatchback - this is the first appearance of the sedan, which will bow at next week's New York Auto Show. The front end treatment is the same, with a new hood, new headlamps incorporating LED accents, a different grille shape and a completely revised lower fascia that does away with the 2014 model's controversial triangle-shaped corners and gaping intakes. The rear gets a new two-piece, laser-brazed trunk lid with new taillamps, but the overall look is quite similar to last year's car. In any case, the refreshed look brings the Focus sedan more in line with the design of Ford's other recently reworked cars, including the Fusion and Fiesta.
