Rust free 1966 F100.  Arizona vehicle.  Engine runs strong and the truck is very fast--until the manual transmission locked up.  It is a NP435 with the first gear granny.  It is now stuck in gear and makes noise. These are relatively easy to rebuild.  The external case is not leaking and it was getting progressively harder to shift gears over the last few months.  I had local quotes of $600.00 plus parts to remove, rebuild and replace the unit at Four Wheelers Supply in Phoenix, Arizona: 602-273-7195.  The transfer case looks to be a Dana 24 divorced style.  In other words the transfer case is NOT attached to the transmission.  The two are connected by a drive shaft approximately 20" long.  This is how Ford made these trucks in 1966.  The benefit is that any car type transmission can be used with out an adapter.  Simply use a short drive shaft coupled to the Dana 24.  I have a lead on a C4 Automatic for the 390 FE with low miles complete with torque converter and a Lokar shifter that can be had for under $700.00 locally.  It was still available when I checked at the time of this posting.


The front axle is a ball joint style Dana 60.  From the lug nuts it looks to be one ton.  The rear axle is either a Dana 60 or Dana 70.  Also one ton lug pattern.  The wheels look to be real Alcoa's and the BFG tires are like new.  The bed has has been sprayed by Inyati.

There is NO RUST on this truck.  As is NONE.  As in it never had any.  It is solid.

The paint job looks good from 6' away but is by no means show quality.  It is a basic low budget paint job but as I said it looks good.

The FE390 runs very strong.  Looks to have some oil leaking from the pan.  I do not believe that this is the original motor.  As indicated, before the transmission locked up this truck was fast.  Transfer case works fine, its a two speed: low and high.

Truck will roll onto a flat bed and engine starts right up.

The front springs have had the shackle reversal.  For put the piviot in the front at the factory.  All modern leaf spring vehicles have the pivot in the rear of the spring.

I am an Arizona attorney and I can be found in the Arizona Bar registry.  I can be reached at 602-616-3375 from 9 am to 10 pm Arizona time.

2015 Ford Mustang renders reveal look of the real thing

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

This is, according to the pony-car obsessed kids over at Mustang6G.com, the closest, most accurate rendering of the new, 2015 Ford Mustang to date. Artis Chazcron used a combination of Ford CAD images and information from assorted spy shots to assemble a fairly handsome car, albeit one that conforms to the tired cliché of being more evolutionary than revolutionary.
Now, it's very important to note that these are still speculative renders, and that they only represent the base car - that could explain the lack of the Mustang's vestigial side scoops, along with other, newer styling cues that Mustang6G seems to think will arrive on production models. Those items include a new, double-bubble roof, although the Mustang aficionados claim that even if it were present, it'd barely be visible from these angles.
The front end is pretty spot on, compared to what we've seen from earlier spy shots, while the tail, with its interesting light design is something new. The louvered taillights look quite different from the current version, obviously, though Mustang has gone the whimsical route with taillights before. Also, note the new rear diffuser uses an integrated reverse light and rear foglight, the latter of which is required for sale in Europe.

Jay Leno sees how the other half lives with CHP cop cars new and old

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Comedian Jay Leno is changing gears from driving fast cars to checking out some of the police cruisers that regularly chase down and dish out punishment to those fast cars. In this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we get the lowdown on the modifications made to the Ford Explorer for the Interceptor package (which looks pretty tough in its California Highway Patrol livery).
The new Ford is cool, but cooler still are the pack of classic CHP cars that Jay has along for the episode. A 1982 Mustang, 1966 Dodge Polara, 1970 Mercury Monterey and 2000 Crown Victoria are all in the shop. Better still, Jay lays out an argument for ones of the classic cruisers as the best cop car of all time. Get your guesses in now, and then scroll down to watch and learn.

Hertz Penske GT latest hot Ford Mustang at the rental counter

Tue, 09 Jul 2013

Just a couple days after announcing the resurrection of its Rent-A-Racer program, Hertz has revealed a new car being added to its Adrenalin Collection of rental cars. To signify its new partnership with Penske Racing in NASCAR, Hertz introduced a limited-edition version of the Ford Mustang GT, officially called the Hertz Penske GT, at last weekend's NASCAR races in Daytona. If you're like us, the rental specials remind with the original 1966 Shelby GT350-H and its later homage, the 2006 Shelby GT-H.
Visually, the Hertz Penske GT starts out with a black and yellow paint and graphics scheme as well as identifying badges, and Hertz has raided the Mustang parts bin for bits and bobs like a Boss 302 front splitter and Shelby GT500 rear valence to give the coupe its own unique look. The model has also receives performance improvements including upgraded suspension and exhaust, Brembo brakes, a retuned ECU and Recaro bucket seats. As a bonus, Penske Racing's Nationwide Series No. 22 Ford Mustang has been painted to match the new Hertz Penske GT. Other cars in the Hertz Adrenaline Collection include the standard version of the Ford Mustang GT, Chevrolet Camaro SS, Chevrolet Corvette convertible and Dodge Challenger R/T. Scroll down for the official press release for the Hertz Penske GT, or you can always head to your local Hertz airport location to see if they have one on the lot.
