On to the condition of the vehicle, piece by piece

Engine: I was told it is the original 260 and was rebuilt in 1990 by the previous owner who rebuilt it with his father. This engine appears to be very original. It has the heat riser tube from the passenger exhaust manifold to choke on carb, large oil fill tube on front of engine, breather tube at back of block going to carb spacer, carb spacer is stamped "260 TOP". The rebuild has 0 miles on it and sat since 1990 after they warmed it up and broke it in correctly. I rebuilt the carburetor, installed a new distributor (original 1963 distributor, with oiler on side, is in trunk), installed new water pump, points, condenser, coil, and fuel pump. The engine fires off without any issues and runs well. It could be tuned better, but it revs nicely with no smoke at all. I did a compression test and got 150 PSI on all cylinders. While the engine needs to be detailed, it does not need to be rebuilt. It doesn't appear to be leaking anything. I've ran it for roughly an hour. It holds 40 PSI oil pressure at idle when fully warmed up. The radiator doesn't leak and has new hoses. The engine also has a new thermostat.

Transmission/Clutch: I was told this was a 4 speed car, but it now has a 3 speed in it. I do not have the 4 speed. The linkage needs to be adjusted because the shift pattern isn't what it should be. The clutch feels ok and it catches all gears. It has a vintage Hurst style shifter in it with adjustable shift rods.

Brakes/Wheels: The brakes need everything from master cylinder, to brake lines. The brakes do not function at all. Be sure to tell your shipper. The wheels are 1960s Keystone Torq Thrusts and look fantastic on the car. They are not heavily corroded, and do not appear to have any cracks or curb rash. They are 14x6 I believe. I was told they have been on the car since the early 70's. All the Keystone center caps are in the trunk

Interior/Trim: The interior is complete and what minor pieces of trim are not show in photos are in the trunk. I don't think this car has all of the trim that goes down the side of the body. That and the letters on the hood and rear valance are all that appear to be missing. The interior needs a full restoration, but the front seats are serviceable if you're looking for a patina daily driver. The original Sprint specific steering wheel, B pillar medallions, dash trim and horn ring are on the car.

Body: There is rust through at the passenger side B pillar, as shown in pictures below. There is rust in the hood and trunk lid seams, rust in the exterior door corners, peeling paint/old body work in the quarters as pictured. The floors were repaired a long time ago and appear to be holding up well. I could not find any rust through or soft spots from the inside of the car. The trunk area appears to be solid. The gas tank looked to be new and never used, but it is dirty because the filler neck was not installed. What hurt this car was an attempt at restoration in the early 90's, and letting the car sit in a barn with exposed bodywork. Weather got to it and over time reversed the repairs made. You will need to start from square one. In my opinion, the most cost effective way to fix the car is to find a 6 cylinder low spec Falcon and use it as a donor. The panels that are on the car ARE restorable though. I do this for a living and have restored worse to like new again.

Again, if you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact me.

Thanks for looking,

Ford set to target pre-school market with next F-150 variant

Tue, Jun 17 2014

How do you build a strong group of loyalists from the next generation of American drivers? You start em' young. Ford has taken that lesson to heart, as we can see in the first batch of images of the company's new entry to the pre-school market, the Power Wheels F-150. This particular example was caught returning from testing around Ford's base of operations in Dearborn, MI – covered in tiny little bits of camouflage, too. Now, this could very well end up being a collaboration between Power Wheels and Ford. Then again, it could just be some bored engineers that decided to troll the local congregation of spy photographers, who earlier today captured images of the next Focus RS and SVT Mustang. Whatever it is, it's pretty darn cool. Take a look up top for images of the new Power Wheels F-150.
