Time to move on to a new project. This is a Custom Cab small window F100 with an older restoration. I have enjoyed it for several years doing local shows and cruise-ins. It is original except the 6 cyl. manual transmission changed over to a 352 V8 paired to a C-6 automatic with B&M shifter & duel glass packs. The interior was re-done as part of the restoration and is still in excellant shape. Original tail gate had several small dents so it was blanked out with a sheet metal overlay. The oil,water,and alt. are monotored via underdash add-on. Radio was upgraded to AM/FM in dash tastefully done. You will see in the pictures that they did a great job on the exterior and interior. Truck still shows very well from 25 feet but re-paint is flaking in several areas where it was not properly sanded during restoration. I have included a picture of the worst spot and all spots are at the curves in the panels where it is more difficult to get a good sand between primer and base coat. Still shines like new (base coat/clearcoat) but does have some flaking. Rust repair minimal (has spent it's entire road life in upstate SC with no salt on roads but these guys did not have good drainage at the back corners of the cab and door bottoms) and still holding well except the very bottom of the passenger door starting to bubble. All glass in good condition except crack in driver's vent glass. Body is very straight and solid. Tires are 85% on custom Ford van wheels. Good driver or easy redo for show.

Don't hesitate to ask questions before or during your bid. Thanks for looking.

Chevy Silverado frame twist test a marketing victory versus Ford

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

The pickup market is so competitive that all three major American makers are constantly trying to find a way to prove their product is the best. The new 2015 Ford F-150 is grabbing headlines at the moment by winning awards and posting segment best numbers. But in a new video, Chevrolet is taking aim squarely at the 2015 F-250 Super Duty in a battle of heavy-duty truck supremacy against the 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500HD... well, in a single metric anyway.
The big numbers from pickups often come down to payload, towing rating and fuel economy, but for this test, Chevy and Howie Long are challenging the torsional rigidity of the trucks' frames, specifically which one flexes less. Long plays the everyman here having the Chevy engineer explain what's going on in the tests. Unsurprisingly for a video on Chevy's official YouTube page, the 2500HD wins out by a good margin. The company also reports that similar results as shown here have been certified in third-party testing.
Check out the video to see the full test. While this might seem like a marketing win for Chevy, Ford isn't immune to it, either. In 2009, the Blue Oval uploaded a similar video comparing the flex under 225 pounds of weight from the bare frames of the F-150, Chevy Silverado, Dodge Ram (as it was still called at the time) and the Toyota Tundra. The results fell in the Blue Oval's favor, as you can see here.

Ford Everest Concept shows China also has an affinity for big trucks

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

The Ford Everest Concept SUV at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show shows the future of the Blue Oval's truck line in China. While a concept for now, we're told that JMC, Ford's Chinese joint-venture partner, will build a production version sometime in the near future.
With design from Ford's Asia Pacific design team, the handsome seven-passenger SUV shows off some very muscular styling with wraparound headlights that hook into the contours of the angular trapezoidal grille. The beltline rises up the body in the rear and makes the back appear higher than the front. The rear is made from hard, chiseled contours that give the truck a very tough look. The Everest looks ready for some rough roads.
Ford is keeping the interior and mechanical details about the Everest a secret for now, but the SUV is rumored to share some components with the overseas Ranger pickup. The company has no plans to sell the truck in North America. Scroll down to read the official announcement, including the few details on its production.

Ford's official Euro aftermarket partner Mountune coming to US

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Now that we're getting a steady stream of Ford's European offerings, the aftermarket world is finally starting to catch up as well. UK-based aftermarket tuning company, Mountune has just announced that it will be setting up shop in California to provide high-performance and racing parts for Ford vehicles including the Focus ST and Fiesta ST.
Mountune lays claim to being Ford's "official European tuning partner," and US buyers will soon have access to these parts through Ford dealerships and with a Ford Racing warranty. Speaking of Ford Racing, Mountune also says that it will be working with Ford's in-house team to develop future components for both street and track. There are no specifics as of yet for which products will be offered here, but the company plans to launch a US-specific website later this month with more information.
