1966 F100 twin beam. Great riding and driving tuck. A show stopper that turns head wherever it goes. It has super sharp red and white exterior with red and black interior.  Has a great classic engine growl..... Incredibly fun truck!   Whenever I drive it, passer-bys, honk their horns and give the thumbs up!!!

Engine and front end rebuilt, V8 352", 3 on a stick upgraded to Auto (C6?), nice two tone recent paint job, reupholstered seats, new floor cover, original OEM radio AM restored for authenticity with iPhone jack (note: one speaker mono in dash), new battery, many restoration touches. Comes with original Ford instruction manual, seems to have been originally sold in Florida (from name inside original instruction manuall).  From what I was told from original owner (but I do not have any documentation on this),  truck has had a rebuilt front end, new rings, bearings, timing gear chain, starter, fuel pump, and more.  I added the original AM radio from that period (mono one speaker in dash) with the iphone jack (Joe's Classic Car Radio added small circuit board integrated into older system!).  I had work finished which includes new distributor, Weber carburator totally rebuilt, repaired emergency brake by finding missing undercarriage lever, added red seat belts to match red upholstery, replaced all fluids, and other maintenance, and it wasn't cheap.  Engine starts right up.  Sounds great..... (in California you are not required to to Smog,  so its has great original sound!)  Truck runs good.  Looks like it has not been in any accidents for we saw no puddy, etc. work underside.  I also added interior side panels on doors with original aluminum trim (not pictured).   Truck bed looks like it was covered in black powdercoat.  More pictures coming.

I did not initially restore the truck and so cannot verify all claims nor was I given any paperwork.  Truck was purchased to use as a picture vehicle in some media and was driven very little in the last year, but enough to keep it well-running.   For that reason, I cannot offer any in depth details as I was not part of the major restoration process.  So there are no implied warranties or guarantees. Truck is sold "as is." 

Buyer must pick up or arrange own transportation or hauling.

Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod

Tue, 21 Oct 2014

Woodie wagons were a major part of surfing culture in the 1960s, offering coastal style and a ton of room, and they even earned a mention in the Beach Boys' classic song Surfin' Safari. This week, Jay Leno's Garage takes a look at two modern, restomodded examples of these style icons.
Unlike a lot of restomods, builder Scott Bonowski keeps these wagons looking almost completely stock on the outside, and all of the upgrades are hidden underneath the timber. You can't tell by looking at it, but the '37 Woodie (pictured above) has independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes and a Ford 5.0-liter V8 under the hood.
Beyond the mechanical aspect, the craftsmanship into the wood is astounding. Bonowski claims there are between 30 and 50 coats of varnish on this wagon. It makes these woodies as much of a piece of fine furniture as a vehicle to drive.

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
