1962 Ford F-100 Custom Cab - Rare 292 CI Y Block V8 Engine - 4 Speed Manual Transmission with Granny Low - Starts up and drives good.
The Good:
Runs and drives good, Does not overheat, engine looks great, newer battery, newer radiator, new belt, new fuel filter, all new fluids, body is straight, newer muffler and tip, new thermostat, new distributer wires, very little rust, original red paint, seat looks good, road ready right now after she warms up a little bit of course. Bed was protected by a shell for most of her life so the bed look really nice. Interior looks good for its age. Hood was replaced (not new and not perfect).
The Bad:
Has small dings and dents as seen but not bad at all. Only one large dent at the bottom of the side bed betweed the back of the cab and the wheel on the Drivers Side - see picture (not that bad though). Only cancer rust are small pin holes in the drivers side floor board and pin holes in the bottom corner of the cab on the drivers side. These items do not need to be replaced, they are solid and just need to be cleaned, patched and protected. The main instrument cluster has been taken apart for some reason. will need to be reassembled (6 screws). Because it is apart, i cannt guarantee that all the guages work properly and that all the little windows are there, but when i drove it, the speedometer was spinning. Both locks work and the doors close flush, drivers side needs to be opened from the outside. Passanger window regulator works, but the plastic roller that goes in the window track should be replaced. Windshield has cracks, but the rest of the glass looks good. Tailgate is missing a hinge. There is no stereo in this truck, and the speakers in the door will need to be replaced.
This is just a great old solid un-restored running truck that can be driven as a beater right now or restored to her former glory. Barely any rust, so you wont have any sheetmetal replacement work. Paint could be polished to shine. This truck is sold as is as all of these trucks are. Have title in hand and is registered in California through June 2013. You will get the signed title in the previous owners name. If i need to put it in my name (every state is different), add $150 to the purchase price. I will wait in the 3 hour dmv line if i have to, just dont want to pay the fees. 5K would make this truck work 15K. Numbers pencil out on this one. This si an old truck that needs a lot of work to look great so if you want a specific picture of a specific place or want to hear it run, call or email me. My name is Tom and my number is 925 321 7643.

Ford Police Interceptors win acceleration war against Dodge, Chevy
Thu, 17 Oct 2013Just last month, Ford announced its first-ever non-pursuit-rated version of the Police Interceptor sedan for agencies looking to maximize fuel economy, but that doesn't mean that Ford is giving up on chasing down the bad guys. While the Dodge Charger can lay claim to the fastest lap time at the Grattan Raceway test facility held by the Michigan State Police, the results are now in for the Police Vehicle Evaluation acceleration tests. And Ford's Police Interceptor duo (sedan and utility) came out on top.
In the acceleration tests, Ford says that the Taurus-based PI Sedan with the newly available 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 was the quickest among prospective police cars in both 0-60 and 0-100 mile per hour times. The sedan posted a 0-60 time of 5.66 seconds with all-wheel drive and 5.71 seconds with front-wheel drive, besting V8-powered competitors like the Chevy Caprice and Dodge Charger by more than 0.3 seconds. These rivals close the gap on the AWD sedan in the 0-100 test with the Ford taking 13.5 seconds compared to the Chevy's time of 14.35 and the Dodge's time of 14.7.
As for utility vehicles, the Explorer-based PI Utility, which accounts for 60 percent of Ford's police vehicle sales, essentially went head-to-head with the V8-powered Chevy Tahoe with similar results. Equipped with the new EcoBoost engine option, this big SUV hit 60 mph in just 6.28 seconds and 100 mph in 15.51 seconds compared to times of 8.22 seconds and 21.95 seconds, respectively, for the Tahoe. Other important tests in the PVE include braking and top speed, but while no automakers have stepped up to boast about their numbers in either of these categories, Ford's images show that the V8 Caprice had the highest top speed of the cars at 155 mph while the Tahoe's 139-mph speed made it the fastest utility vehicle.
Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost
Fri, 16 May 2014Earlier this week, Ford invited us to Charlotte, NC, to ride in an all-new 2015 Mustang fitted with its turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. It's the first forced-induction, four-cylinder ponycar for the Blue Oval since the sun set on the 1986 Mustang SVO. We jumped at the opportunity, as only a handful of people have ever been in the passenger seat of this new car, and most automotive media won't get as close as we did until this fall.
As we revealed in our Deep Dive, Ford will slot this new turbocharged four as premium powerplant between its naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 and the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. At last mention, the automaker said the direct-injected, all-aluminum engine will develop 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, returning the best fuel economy of the three powerplants in the process. History buffs will note that those figures are appreciably stouter than the 200 horses and 240 lb-ft that the '86 SVO realized out of the same displacement, and the latter's figures were hugely impressive at the time. On paper, the new EcoBoost four looks to be a good fit for most owners who want to balance performance with efficiency - we were eager to see how it felt from the passenger seat.
