What I have here is a 1959 Ford f100 Fleet Side Custom Cab which I believe to be mostly original. I bought this truck on ebay from a gentleman that said he purchased the truck from from a guy who had it in a barn, I believe that to be true. The body is straight with some surface rust but overall is very solid. Engine is a 292 v8 that starts right up and runs like a new one. The truck has been converted to dual exhausts and sounds great. (watch wideo). THe transmission works great and it has a 3 on the tree shifter, fun to drive. The interior is in very good shape for a truck of this age. it has the original radio in it which israre. Makes me think the truck had been in storage for some time. The tail gate is not original to the truck but is flawless. The grill is nice and not bent up and the other chrome is is decent shape. The tires are good and the wheels have a set of ford hub caps on them that i do not believe to be original to the truck but look fine. The oil has been changed, the front brakes relpace, by me. Now what it needs: it needs a radio antena, a right front wiper blade and and both door glass panels have a crack where someone slammed the door to hard. This truck is a candidate for a complete restore as the sheet metal is in great shape as well as the mechanical. Completely restored this truck will fetch 20k easy will be a reall heard turner. Drive it like it is and it is still a head turner.
Now, why am i selling it? Well, my wife dont want me to:-) She loves old cars and trucks: My daughter and her husband are in process for adopting a child. Our family has been donating yard sales stuff to help raise money to offset the cost. As I understand it is 50K via a agency in Texas so every little bit helps. I plan to sell this truck and contribute some of the proceeds to additionally help them financially.
The truck is availble to see prior to bidding if you would like. Any additional questions call me at 3364074963, my name is Mike.

2014 Ford Mustang GT
Fri, 17 May 2013I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
2013 Ford F-150 Limited
Mon, 28 Jan 2013The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.
