This is a '72 F100 in very good condition for it's age. It has power steering and factory air in the cab. It has been repainted sometime in the 80's, but still has old paint look to it if thats what you're looking for. The engine is a 300 6 cyl. ( not original engine). I ran across this barn find last week, changed the oil, spark plugs/wires, drained the old gas, did a carb kit, put on a new air filter and battery and she fired up and is running good. The factory air is complete under the dash but is missing the compressor and condenser under the hood. The seat is in decent condition with one seam coming un-stitched at the right front corner and one small hole at the bottom on the left front. I have driven a couple hundred miles this week to make sure everything ran/worked well and have had no problems. The fan blows hard but squeals when running(going to try to lube it this week but that's it's current condition). It is missing the inside right door handle. It has minimal rust, the right rocker at the front when you open the door has a little hole, the left door at the bottom has "bondo" wiped in it from years ago and unfinished, the cab mounts are solid but the center braces will need replacing if you want truck nice. On the left fender at the moulding there is some rust bubbling at the front and the back of the bed at the cab corners have been worked when painted previously. There is NO rust through at the front of the bed or at the front of the hood or on the inner fenders thats common on these trucks and the radiator support is very solid with no rust. The window are very clear with just a little white discoloration at the bottom of the windshield (maybe a half inch up across). The tires have good tread but are dry rotted a little, I would recommend replacing before driving very much. The muffler is hanging down and a little rusty. I have attached alot of pictures to try to show condition of the truck, look and decide for yourself but it seems to be a very solid truck. This truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells here first.

Ford evaluating new Fiesta RS?
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Word coming in from across the pond has it that Ford is working on developing the business case to create a new Fiesta RS. The development is encouraged by the extremely positive reception the existing Fiesta ST has garnered to date, and the emergence of the above-pictured Fiesta RS WRC rally car, but it'll take more than goodwill to make a more extreme version a reality.
According to Auto Express, a new roadgoing Fiesta RS would almost certainly be based closely on the ST version, albeit with some vital differences. Its 1.6-liter turbo four would be increased from 180 horsepower to somewhere around 230 hp, and that powertrain would be accompanied by lightweight alloys inside blistered wheel arches, a stripped-out interior and possibly lightweight bodywork.
The vehicle's approval would reportedly require a strong business case in Europe, and not just in the UK where Ford hot hatches traditionally enjoy a strong following. It's unclear whether the Fiesta RS would potentially make the transatlantic voyage to American showrooms, but between it and the larger Focus RS, hopefully the Blue Oval wouldn't leave its home market out of the action altogether.
2015 Ford Mustang dealer order guide surfaces
Tue, 13 May 2014Details about the all-new, 2015 Ford Mustang continue to leak out. In fact, at this point, it's more of a stream than a drip. Its option prices are already available, and now the full ordering guide is on the web for all of the trims thanks to the Mustang 6G forum. Ford is rapidly running out of secrets to keep about its new sports coupe.
The 21-page guide can be perused in the gallery below and contains all of the standard features, colors, options codes, descriptions. Generally everything you might want to know about the 'Stang is there, other than its price or power. It even shows off the available wheel designs.
The guide finally gives away the contents of the Performance Package for the EcoBoost and GT trims. The EcoBoost's package includes: A larger rear sway bar, new chassis tuning, larger brake rotors, 19-inch black wheels, retuned driver assistance systems, an aluminum dash panel, added gauge pack, 3.55 limited slip rear differential, larger radiator, heavy-duty front springs and spoiler delete. When the options pricing leaked, it indicated the package would cost $1,995. If that is the case, it seems like quite a deal.
White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes
Fri, 07 Dec 2012At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.
