Up for auction is my 1968 Ford, F-100 step side, short bed truck. The truck was a one owner truck until 2010 and has only 79K original miles. The truck was purchased off of the showroom floor in San Jose California as the family's second vehicle and it comes with the 2 original keys and "original" dated, owner's manual. The engine is a 360 big block engine with an automatic transmission. The truck is pretty much original with the exception of the west coast mirrors and the dual exhaust. The rear bumper was either a factory or dealer option, but did come new with the truck. The interior has been updated with a new seat cover, arm rest and dash cover, otherwise everything is original with the truck when new. The brake system has been gone thru completely and the radiator and starter have been replaced. The tires have plenty of good life left in them. The truck does not squeak or rattle when driving down the road and is a true attention getter in any setting. Pretty much everything on the truck works except the horn and maybe an interior light? The original AM radio truck, gauges and knobs are all intact and functioning. The truck looks to have had some paint work done to one of the doors years ago, but can't really tell what damage was done. Although the truck runs nice, it has been sitting for well over a year and has developed an oil leak. I am pretty sure that it is the front main seal, but since driving the truck today, it has slowed or stopped. I replaced the battery today and the truck started and runs good, except for some minor hesitation when accelerating. I have added some carb cleaner and expect that a little driving will clear everything back to normal. There is some surface rust "only"on the truck, but all easily repairable and only minor stuff. There are several small dents in the truck, but again, nothing major. The door hinges are tight as can be and it runs and drives smooth. The doors all close tight and the windows and seals are all in great shape. The bed is the original wood from the factory, but the 2 outer boards need to be replaced. I am out of garage space and the truck needs to find a new home. This is a nice truck that can be pretty much left "as is" or is a great candidate for a total restoration.

I have a clear Florida title in hand and a $500 PayPal deposit is due within 24 hours of the close of the auction. The deposit is non-refundable, so please ask all of the questions that you have before bidding. The balance is due within 7 days of the auction close. I can assist with getting the truck loaded on a car carrier as you may need. The truck is offered with no warranty and is also for sale locally and therefore I reserve the right to end the auction early.

Thanks for looking!!

Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.

Sunday Drive: Still thankful for supercars

Sun, Nov 26 2017

The Thanksgiving holiday meant that last week was pretty short on stories, but apparently our readers are still thankful for supercars. The biggest news of the week was the new Aston Martin Vantage, which is clothed in a new look that Autoblog readers are still very much unsure of. It's a radical departure from past Aston Martin models, and while everyone seems to agree that the profile is lovely, the squinty headlamps are a particular source of contention. Its 503 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque cannot be argued with ... oh, and a V12 may be coming soon. Moving along is a nearly new 2006 Ford GT for sale that's expected to fetch around $300,000 at auction. It's so unused that it still has plastic wrap covering the leather interior. The Ango-American theme continues with the McLaren 720S, though not in road-going form. Still, renderings of the upcoming 720S GT3 racer round out this supercar-rich recap. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog for all the latest automotive news that's fit to print.
