I'm selling 1968 Ford F100 Custom Cab longbed converted to shortbed. Frame was sectioned and boxed professionally. Driveshaft was shortened and balanced professionally also. Then a shortbed box was installed from 1967 F100. The truck has new custom machined American Racing Torq Thrust wheels size 17x8 with 255/50-17 tires all around. The truck has tilt steering column, power steering, power disc brakes and front suspension from a 1977 F-100. Steering wheel is a leather Nardi 14 inch. The gauge cluster is from a F600 truck from the same era. All gauges work except speedometer but the Gps is what I use to gauge speed. Has a double din Kenwood stereo with Gps, Navigation, and IPod controls. Dynamat installed throughout cab. Has aftermarket cruise control and power windows. AC Unit is from Classic Air products. The engine is 360FE Big Block stroked to 410ci. There is a RV style camshaft for excellent torque and great idle qualities aswell as a slightly lumpy muscle idle. Has Long tube exhaust Headers with Magnaflow Mufflers and resonators for a quiet sound. Engine has an aluminum Edelbrock intake manifold with a Holley street avenger Carb. The transmission is NV4500 5 speed from a 2001 Dodge Ram with an Advance Adapter kit mated to the original bellhousing. This transmission was chosen to handle the torque from the big block engine and for the added economy of the 5th gear. Truck drives well and can be driven daily. Have some receipts for the work on the truck. I'm asking a fraction of what was spent to get it to this point. Still needs a few more things especially paint and bodywork. Has some rust spots on lower corners of fenders and both door lower corners. Has surface rust on bed area. Has small dent on front of hood. Windshield has a crack about 6 inches on passenger side. The windshield doesnt really bother the view since its on the very right. I will throw in an extra door and some misc parts. Unfortunately I have to sell truck to fund my other project. My loss your gain like the saying says!! Tags are up to date just transfer and drive!
Valve covers leak a little so I'm including gaskets and sealant.
NO RESERVE!! Listed locally so I reserve the right to end auction at anytime

2013 Ford F-150 Limited
Mon, 28 Jan 2013The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.

2016 Ford Mustang GT bringing back hood turn signals
Sat, May 9 2015The 2016 Ford Mustang is being teased again, this time with a short video. And what you're looking at here is a nod back to Mustangs of the 1960s. Ford is bringing back a hood with turn signals in the vents. In 1967, Ford offered an optional hood on the Mustang with two heat extraction vents that faced the windscreen. Inside those vents were amber turn signals, so, you know, drivers could see their own blinkers blinking. A novelty feature, sure, but a nice historical cue that Ford is bringing back for its updated 2016 'Stang. We also know that Ford will offer a California Special pack on the 2016 Mustang GT. Beyond that, we don't expect too many more changes, seeing as how the Mustang was just completely redesigned for 2015. Stay tuned for the full details on Monday, May 11. Related Video:
Ford recalls over 680,000 Ford Fusions, Mondeos, and Lincoln MKZs for seat belt pretensioners
Fri, Dec 2 2016Update: We spoke with a Ford representative who said that owners will be notified by mail during the week of January 16 . Dealers will also have the fix available at the same time. Owners can bring in their vehicles to dealers for an evaluation in the mean time. The main text has been updated to reflect this. The Basics: Ford is recalling 680,872 2013-2016 Ford Fusions, 2015-2016 Ford Mondeos, and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZ s for an issue with front driver-side and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners. The Problem: The seat-belt pretensioners did not have sufficient insulation applied. When the pretensioners are activated, the heat generated can cause the cables connected to the belts to separate, which in turn can prevent the seat belts from effectively restraining the occupant. This can lead to injuries. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports two accidents and two injuries have occurred that are related to this recall. The fix: A dealer technician will inject an insulation coating around the pretensioner. This should effectively keep the heat away from the cables, ensuring the seat belt will properly restrain the user in a collision. If you own one: Affected owners will be notified by mail on the week of January 16. Dealers will have the fix available that week, and owners will be able to bring in their vehicles for the fix to be implemented free of charge. Related Video:
