This truck has been fun but I have a new project so I'm ready to let it go. I need to clear out the garage.
It has less than 52000 miles on it.

Long bed Flare Side (rare). Fords are Flare Sides, Chevys are Step Sides.
I have a side mount fender and spare tire mounting bracket for the truck that goes with it. The fender needs to be painted though. I think the addition of the side mount spare would look GREAT!


360 V8 2 barrel.
Dual Exhaust.
C6 automatic transmission. Shifts very smoothly.
Power steering.
Air conditioning. The air doesn't work right now but it is all there.
1 repaint in the original Wimbeldon White.

The truck is nearly rust free. There is an old bondo patch behind the right front wheel about 2" square.

There is a rust bubble beginning to form at the bottom outside of the passenger door. On the corner about the size of a dime. I took a photo of this but it is a poor one.

There was some rust along the inside of the bed on the flare that sits on the wooden bed. I suppose being out in the rain in its previous life the wood would hold water there. It has been ground  and painted. it is no longer rusting but you can see where it was.

These spots are not a big deal at all but I want to be clear that they are there.

There is an oil leak in the timing cover seal. This causes it to throw a little oil that winds up on the right inside of the hood. The leak is very small, not enough oil is lost to be seen on the dip stick for many miles. It does mark it's spot on the garage floor.

The steering wheel is cracked and the horn button needs to be replaced.

It does not come with a radio.

I have described everything that is wrong with the truck but said very little about how nice it is.

It is a very nice old Ford.


 It starts easily, It is a pleasure to drive. Drive it anywhere.
This truck is in very good condition. The pictures tell the story. It is beautiful.


 Ready for the new owner to enjoy.

2015 Ford Mustang fuel economy ratings leaked

Thu, 21 Aug 2014

Thinking about buying a new Mustang, but want to know what kind of fuel economy it'll get? Well we have our first indication as the pony-car enthusiasts over at Mustang6G.com have gotten a hold of the Monroney window stickers for a few of the new 2015 Mustang models.
Although the V8 model is not among them, we can now see how the EPA has rated those models with a half dozen pistons or less. The Mustang EcoBoost with the turbo four and a manual transmission has been rated at 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 on the highway. The V6 manual gets 17 city and 28 highway, while the V6 automatic squeezes out a bit more in the city at 19 mpg but carries the same 28 highway rating.
By way of comparison, the latest Chevy Camaro with the V6 and a stick shift gets the same 17/28 EPA rating as a similarly equipped new 'Stang, and the V6 automatic Camaro gets 18/27 (slightly behind the Ford, but if you opt for the Camaro 2LS with its V6, automatic and 2.92 rear axle ratio, you'll be looking at 19 and 30).

UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
Scroll down to watch Auto Express' top five commercial in order and to check out a press release, then let us know some of your favorite car commercials in Comments.

Ford recalls 277,000 Super Duty trucks over foggy rear-view camera

Thu, Sep 1 2022

Ford has issued a recall that applies to around 277,000 units of the Super Duty pickup built between the 2017 and 2020 model years. The campaign also includes about 13,000 units of the Lincoln Continental, and it aims to fix an issue that makes the rear-view camera foggy. Assigned recall number 22V-644 by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the recall includes 139,131 units of the F-250, 109,960 units of the F-350, 14,830 units of the F-450, and 13,119 units of the Continental. The affected trucks are all fitted with the Ultimate Trailer Tow Camera system and were built between November 12, 2015, and March 10, 2020, while the affected Lincoln models are equipped with the 360-degree camera and were made from November 30, 2015 to March 10, 2020.  Ford explains "degradation of the coating on an internal rear-view camera lens can lead to a progressively foggy or cloudy image." It adds ultraviolet radiation causes the problem and that this issue increases the risk of an accident, though it's not aware of accidents or injuries. Owners of affected cars and trucks who have already paid to get the issue fixed have until September 30, 2022, to ask Ford for a refund. The company will begin notifying customers about the recall by mail on September 12, 2022, and it will ask them to take their vehicle to the nearest authorized dealer to get the rear-view camera replaced free of charge.
