See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Has only minor wear and tear, looks very good with the expected blemishes that come with a 37 year old vehicle."

I love this truck however financial distress requires that I liquidate any assets. Really do not want to sell, hope that it goes to someone that will preserve it.

The bad;

needs radio. there is a sanyo installed from previous owner. It doesnt work. I connected it and there was noise, however it cannot change channels?

Cruise works, however the coast button doesn't operate. It will set at all speeds and holds at required mph. It will accelerate and set or turn off, just doesn't coast with the button on steering wheel.

There are vaccuum lines that have been disconnected but are still there. Runs fine without them.

It has dual exhaust with glass paks, I prefer it to be more quiet and would change that if funding permitted. The whole exhaust is in good shape though, just a bit loud for my taste. Fun when passing, but tough for the neighbors when I start it early in the morning. lol

The good;

paint is original and looks nice, 8 out of 10

Interior is in great condition, I'll get photos soon. Dash pad is perfect and all dash panels are original not broken or cut. (including around radio)

It has air bags on the rear that hold air.

Air conditioning still works properly, love that now that its summer.

original owner and I have kept it in a garage all the time.

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses

Wed, 25 Jul 2012

Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.

Ford sued over alleged 3.5-liter EcoBoost defects

Thu, 16 May 2013

Three Ford owners from Ohio have filed a lawsuit against the automaker over defects that they allege exist within the company's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. Automotive News reports that the lawsuit claims the engine "contained serious latent design, manufacturing, or assembly defects." Those defects, the suit claims, cause the vehicle to shake, misfire and lose power quickly.
Two of the plaintiffs, a married couple, own a 2010 Ford Taurus SHO, and allege they experienced a loss of power and stalling, while the third, an F-150 owner, claims he lost power while accelerating. In addition to the Taurus SHO and F-150, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine is also available in the Ford Flex, Explorer Sport and Lincoln MKT and MKS. Other three- and four-cylinder EcoBoost engines are not included in the suit. There have been no recalls associated with 3.5-liter V6 engine, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is currently not investigating the matter.
The plaintiffs, however, claim Ford has known about the problem, citing several technical service bulletins issued to dealers of the F-150 that suggest possible fixes. Ford had no comment for Automotive News, saying that it's yet to review the lawsuit, which was filed last Friday in Columbus, OH.

Ford recalling nearly 5,700 2014 F-150s for power steering issue

Wed, 25 Jun 2014

Ford is recalling 5,675 of its 2014 F-150 pickups over an issue with the electric power steering system. There haven't been any injuries or accidents due to the issue.
Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Autoblog that the "electric power-assisted steering and motor position sensor gear were incorrectly installed by a supplier," leading to the recall.
While the recall is larger on the surface, it's important to note that only 260 trucks have been delivered to customers. The remaining pickups are currently en route to dealers. The affected vehicles were manufactured between May 26 and June 19.
