****** Please know, this is a real auction. Please do not bid if you can not pay. I'm only listing this 1 time. Please read my entire description and ask all questions before bidding. If you are the high bidder and the reserve is met, you own the truck. ********



This is a custom F100 from top to bottom, front to back. It's been done for a few years. It runs and drives very well for a truck of this age. I have a stack of pictures a couple inches tall of the truck's build. It comes with a briefcase full of receipts totaling about $70,000.00 and also comes with a partial  quart of the original PPG paint the truck was painted with. 

ENGINE:  is a 1968 460 big block V-8 out of a Lincoln. It was rebuild with an edel brock cam, intake, and carburetor. It also has roller rockers. Exhaust manifolds are stock. 

Transmission:  is a Ford C6, rebuilt with a shift kit.

Frame:  is the original, but has been modified

Suspension: The front is a subbed in VOLARIE IFS torsion bar. The rear is stock leaf spring, lowered with a chrysler 8-3/4 axle. (gears are 3.50-3.73 I'm not a 100% sure which?) The truck also has power steering.

Tires and Wheels: Tires are BFG's 215/60/15 front and 295/50/15 rear. Center Line wheels, 15x8 front and 15x10 rear.

Interior: Custom head liner, door panels, and carpet. Seats are out of 2000 ford F250. DAKOTA DIGITAL dash and Remote door poppers. Power windows, Power Cowl Vent and cruise. Vintage heat and air. (the truck is set up for A/C, I believe I has almost all the parts, but are not all installed and DO come with the truck.) Windows are tinted. Custom center console. Pioneer stereo with 6 disc cd changer. Billet rear view mirror. Colorado customs billet steering wheel. 

Paint and Body Work: Paint and body work are very nice and were professionally done. Exterior paint is PPG dark amethyst base coat clear coat with hand, pin striped old school flames. The frame, axle, and suspension have all been painted with automotive paint and are a medium gray. The truck has a forward tilt hod kit with prop. rod, that makes opening and closing the hood easy compared to the stock springs and hinges.

Everyone wants to know if there is anything wrong with the truck or if there are any defects or things that need attention. So, here is everything I can think of. 1) The truck has been driven, and has had a few tiny rock chips that don't show up in pictures......most have been touched up. 2) the 1/4 windows are original glass and have bubbles between the panes, the passenger side is the worst of the two. 3) as I mentioned above, the truck has most everything for A/C, but is not hooked up. 4) the power steering has a drip when the truck is running( I think it's just a hose clamp on the return line I'm going to try and get to before the auction is over) 5) the valve covers have been painted to match the truck and some paint has flaked off the passenger side valve cover. 

I have described this truck to the best of my ability. I'm human and make mistakes, and I'm sure there are things I fore got. So please ask all questions before bidding.

You can call me on my cell phone @ (651) 775-7887 or message me threw eBay. Friday I will be unavailable by phone from 9a.m. til 5p.m. central time. I'm very busy, so if I don't answer, please leave me a message and I will call you back a.s.a.p.

THANKS!............. Matt

Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013



Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
