One nice solid 1959 Ford F-100 pick up truck.The truck is a 1/2 ton short wheelbase with the fleetside bed,the overall condition is very nice driver condition it is not show perfect but above average driver quality.The body is very nice the truck was painted once I think in the late seventies or early eighties,the paint is in nice condition but it does have some chips and scratches and some spots where the paint is thin where it has been polished,there also are some spots where the paint has been touched up. I don`t see any rust issues in the body other than a little spot on the bottom inside below the hinge on the passenger door.There are some spots on the body where you can see the body filler cracking,all this is minor and cannot be seen unless right on the area.The tailgate does have some damage where it has broke and been rewelded,also it has a some dents in it along the center section.The inside of the bed is nice with minimal wear and tear.It does have snaps attached to the bed side where it had a tonneau cover at one time.The grille and bumpers are all nice.The rubber around the windows does show its age.The wheels are not the stock wheels and are 15 inch with newer BF Goodrich Silvertons wide whitewall tires.The engine and transmission are both all stock with the exception of the engine exhaust crossover pipe has been remove and dual exhust installed,it also has the Petronix conversion done to the stock distributor.The engine runs good with no real issues it could use a good tune-up and possibly a carb overhaul to make it really purr.The trans is the factory granny low 4 speed trans it works good with no issues,the rest of the drivertrain as far as I know is in good shape.I have put quite of trouble free miles on the truck and it drives stops and rides nice for an old truck. It has no power steering or brakes.The inside is nice as well it has what appears to be a factory headliner that covers the floor and the sides of the rear window.The seat and floor mat are both nice as well the I/P lights wipers all work.The truck also has a vintage Dixco tach with vintage Stewart warner temp and oil pressure gauges.The truck would make a nice driver for the entry level Classic car person,A nice period 1960`s hot rod base to start with or a nice solid piece to do the frame off restoration. Please ask any questions and it is avaliable for personal inspection or test drive if you are local. I will require a 500.00 deposit within 48 hours and payment in full at pick-up. The truck is licensed and road worthy but it is not a comfortable long journey ride.I have the California title in hand.So if you are looking for a nice ride for next summer here it is !!!!

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US
Wed, 11 Dec 2013As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.

Ford Australia debuts Ranger-based Everest SUV concept
Tue, 13 Aug 2013Ford has been in hot water in Australia ever since it announced plans to end local production of the Falcon and Territory SUV. Besides canceling a model that is to Oz what the Mustang is to America, the end of production means more than a few folks will be out of work.
Keen to prove that it has a plan for the market, Ford has unveiled the Aussie-penned Everest Concept, a rough-and-tumble, seven-seat SUV. While not a direct replacement for the aging Territory (that role will eventually be filled by either the Edge or Flex, according to Car Advice) it's an indication from Ford's brass that the Blue Oval is still committed to Australia.
To prove that fact, Alan Mullaly, Mark Fields, Jim Farley and regional execs descended on Sydney for the debut of the new concept. Ford's Australian president and CEO, Bob Graziano, said of the Everest, "Our customers, our employees and Australia can be assured that we're connected to the nation and committed to our customers through terrific products with class-leading technologies."
