Beautiful original 1977 F100 Custom Explorer with like new orig interior you have to see to believe!!! Also undercarriage is like off the lot in 1977 with only very end of dual exhaust pipes showing rust through due to chrome exhaust tips being on it when I got it that held moisture between them and pipes causing some rust through.Exterior has some issues with pinstriping on hood that needs redoing and some parking lot scratches here and there,but zero rust,rot,or sheet metal repair anywhere...this truck is solid as a rock.There is also a dent above rear passenger side tail-light that is the exteriors worst issue keeping it from receiving trophies at car shows.Truck has factory a/c that needs recharging and new belt,but did blow air before I took belt off so all power would transfer to motor and not needlessly turn a/c pulley.Truck also features orig AM/FM stereo,orig FORD hubcaps,and loud air horns mounted under hood run by compressor and air tank along with aux. air hose to inflate other things as needed(orig horn still operates as well). I also recently put on a new carb that still needs tuning,but starts,idles,and runs good,but under power does hesitate some at slow speed,but does come out of it as it increases in speed.Honestly,I'm horrible at adjusting carbs as well as setting timing so someone that can do that or send to a garage to do it right will have a great running truck!!! Currently the truck is running off a 22 gallon fuel cell mounted in bed of truck due to both orig gas tanks needing a thorough draining and cleaning or possible replacement due to possible rusting from inside out or just crappy old gas varnishing inside tanks(that's what messed up my orig carb). Also,drivers side inner door panel is a bit loose on bottom due to a few clips falling out so I'll try and get that fixed before new owner takes delivery of it,but new clips are easily obtained as well as most new parts for these old Fords through LMC Ford Parts.

Truck is advertised locally so if it's sold or traded locally the ad will be taken down promptly! If truck is won by auction on here,winner is solely responsible for all shipping charges or can be picked up locally.I can hold truck as long as needed as long as it's paid for in full and you explain situation before final winning bid!!

1914 Ford Model T at Historic Greenfield Village | AutoblogVR

Tue, Sep 6 2016

We drive all of the newest and most sophisticated cars, but a 102-year-old Ford is one of our recent favorites. Senior Editor Alex Kierstein headed to historic Greenfield Village in Dearborn, MI, to learn to drive a Model T in the latest AutoblogVR segment. Kierstein picks up the Model T fairly quickly, despite its controls. Though they were designed more than a century ago to be simple and easy to use, driving a Model T is complicated and counter-intuitive to the modern motorist. But by the end of his lesson, Kierstein has it all figured out and is enjoying himself. In our other new segment, Detroit Manufacturing, Senior Editor Greg Migliore showcases the city''s industrial might. He tours a modern Fiat Chrysler factory that churns out Dodge Durangos and Jeep Grand Cherokees and then wanders the ruins of the mythical Packard Plant. There's also some tasty and unexpected twists in this VR episode. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too! Ford Jeep Automotive History Driving Classics Videos VR Original Video Detroit ford model t tour 360video

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.

Ford recalls 1.3 million Fusions, MKZs: Steering wheels could come off

Wed, Mar 14 2018

When driving a car, the steering wheel is only expected to move in a rotational fashion, either clockwise or counter-clockwise. When it moves in some other direction, something is wrong, and when it moves the wrong way enough that it is no longer attached to the steering column, that's a really, really bad thing. And apparently, according to a recall issued by Ford, there are over 1.3 million Ford Fusions and Lincoln MKZs that are at risk of this happening. And at least two accidents and one injury have been attributed to the issue. Ford says the problem is that the steering wheel bolt that keeps the wheel attached to the column might not provide enough torque, resulting in the bolt slowly loosening and working its way off the column. The good news is that the fix is really simple. Ford will install a larger bolt with more threads along with a larger nylon patch to keep it all locked down. The fix is completely free to owners. Cars affected by the recall include 2014 to 2017 Fusions built built at the Flat Rock plant in Michigan between August 6, 2013, and February 29, 2016. Model year 2014-2018 Fusions and MKZs built at the Hermosillo factory in Mexico are also affected. So if you have one of those sedans, please get in touch with your local dealer to have the issue addressed. Related Video:
