Original North Carolina truck. Runs, drives and looks great. Engine is 351 cu.in (I was told by previous owner it is a Cleveland, rebuilt about 4 years ago), automatic transmission w/ column shifter converted to B&M Ratchet floor shifter. Brakes work excellent. Steering is tight and had recent alignment. Tires are very good w/ plenty on miles left. The frame and bed are solid rust free as is the bulk of truck. The only spots that seem to have had some rust repair are lower corner tip of each door and floor foot pans. It can be a daily driver as it is or an easy resto . I am selling the truck because I need to "thin my herd", simply have to many vehicles and very little time to enjoy them.
These are the only issues that I know: Carb has manual choke that can be converted back to automatic, needs adjustment or cleaning for better idle. Kick down linkage was removed w/ carb replacement and column shifter & linkage was removed for B&M Floor Shifter conversion by previous owner. Interior needs carpet and interior of glove box. Seat beading separated and has seat cover. Dash pad needs replacement. Driver side window crank needs repair. Small section missing on right side of grill. Rain rails above doors need repair or replacement. I believe most of these items are minor and everything is availiable through local car parts stores or aftermarket suppliers like Dennis Carpenter Parts and LMC Trucks.
Call me at 860-294-6896 with any questions. Truck is registered, I welcome and encourage anyone interested to drop by to inspect and test drive.
I have described the truck to the best of my knowledge. If you have any questions ask before you bid.
$500 deposit is due within 24 hours after the auction ends unless other arrangements are discussed prior.

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history
Sat, 03 May 2014You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.
Ford dealer loses Super Bowl bet, pays $300K to lucky customers [w/video]
Tue, 11 Feb 2014A Missouri Ford dealership's Super Bowl weekend sale cost it big when the improbable happened. Hutcheson Ford ran a promotion from January 29 to February 1, called the Super Weekend Sale. The gist was, if any customer purchased a vehicle between those dates and either the opening or second-half kickoff of the big game was returned for a touchdown, the dealership would refund the purchase price.
In the dealership's defense, it seemed like a safe bet. According to the mathematicians, there was just a 2.5-percent chance of either half opening with a touchdown return. But that didn't stop Seattle's Percy Harvin from doing his part to ruin Denver's evening, returning the second-half kick for an 87-yard touchdown run. Twelve Hutcheson customers were eligible for refunds thanks to the return, with prices ranging from $10,000 to $55,000, according to Automotive News. The total amount shelled out by the dealership? $300,000.
"At least we're not like that furniture guy that lost $7 million," dealership marketing manager Kathleen Frazier told AN. We think it was a big success." The dealership did take out insurance to cover its losses, meaning the $300K won't come entirely from its pockets.
2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
