Selling my Trusty Rusty!  This has been my 3rd vehicle for the last 2 years.  I am updating with a newer truck.  I bought Ugly Betty in July of 2011.  I've used it as a weekend work & hunting truck.  I've put about 4,000 miles on it since getting it.  I commute about 30 miles(each way) with it once or twice a month when I need to haul something.  It has served me pretty well, but do to its age and condition upkeep is necessary.  Runs good, starts every time...sometimes slow to catch in the winter.


Biggest defects are as follows:
  • rear fuel tank is not connected and cannot be used as is
  • emergency brake lines have rusted away
  • leaks oil
  • dead AC
  • rusty undercarriage
  • primer paint on roof
  • someone keyed "HA!" on the driver's door

I've replaced the following in the last two years.
  • brake pads (summer 2011)
  • rear brake kits including new wheel cylinders (old drums reused) (summer 2011)
  • windshield (summer 2011) 
  • installed new proper sized battery (summer 2011)
  • installed used rear fuel tank (summer 2011) IS NOT CONNECTED
  • replaced fuel sending relay (summer 2012)
  • replaced negative battery cable (summer 2012)
  • replaced front springs and shocks (summer 2012)
  • replaced rear shocks
  • Inner/outer front end wheel bearing (last month)
I have a brand new starter (NAPA brand) for this truck that I haven't installed.  Turned out to be the rusted negative battery cable that was causing the starting problem in 2012.  That starter is included in this sale.

Take a look at the ton of pictures to get a feel for the condition.  Sold AS IS, WHERE IS with NO WARRANTY from Geneva, IL.
 
Feel free to contact me with questions.  This is my first time selling a vehicle on EBAY, I expect a $200 dollar paypal deposit within 48 hours of auction completion, and the balance to be pain in-person (cash or cashier's check) or via paypal at pickup.

Ford F-150 Tremor to pace NASCAR Truck Series this weekend

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Ford's bro-tastic F-150 Tremor will be pacing this weekend's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Michigan International Speedway. The Tremor fills a gap in the Ford F-Series lineup that we imagine the NASCAR set have clamored for - a hot-rod pickup truck.
Where the F-150 Raptor is designed to go quick on anything, the Tremor and its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 are designed to tackle the road. The 365-horsepower and 420-pound-foot EcoBoost is unchanged from the rest of the F-150 line, but it combines the shortest drive ratio with the lightest two-door body, making it a bit of hot rod.
Ford will be offering hot laps with Michigan native Brad Keselowski behind the wheel of the Tremor for fans that arrive in the Irish Hills on August 14. The main showing for the new pickup will be the August 17 race, though, when it'll lead the field at the start of the race and through cautions.

Ford GT40 makes historic return to racing at Goodwood

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Is there a more iconic, American racecar than the Ford GT40? That may be a discussion for another day (although by all means, tell us how wrong we are in Comments), but this video of heaps of GT40s running in the Goodwood Revival races certainly has us thinking that Ford's Ferrari-killer might just be the best racer the Land Of The Free and Home Of The Brave has ever come up with.
That's completely ignoring the fact that the GT40 was largely developed by Brits using American money, but that's besides the point (there was also a rather brash Texan, who had a big role later in development). The resulting vehicle was dominant, besting the cars of Il Commendatore from 1966 to 1969, although it should be noted that Ford's GT40 was unable to beat Ferrari in its first two Le Mans outings in 1964 and 1965.
Those four years of dominance, which started with Ford sweeping the podium, were enough to establish the GT40's legend. And now, here we are almost 50 years later, celebrating the mid-engined monsters at Goodwood, in their first ever one-make race. Take a look below for the entire video.
