1962 Ford F100 Unibody Long Bed F-100 Uni-body Longbed on 2040-cars
Stanley, North Carolina, United States
Hello and thank you for looking at my auction! I have a 2 documented owner 1962 F-100 Unibody long bed pickup truck. The first owner bought it new and kept it up until first of this year when we bought it and are now the second owners. The truck is in very good shape for a 52 year old vehicle. It has a small amount of work that has been done to it in the past but nothing major. It is solid and runs and drives and stops very good and has been on back roads, city streets and highways since we owned it with no issues at all. It is mostly primered but can be brought back to the patina look with some sanding and elbow grease or some finishing and painted to look very nice. The truck has some body blemishes but no real rot. The worst visible spots are in the bed. The tailgate opens and shuts exactly the way is should. For you truck and rat rod guys, you know that is hard to come by.
The truck has a 70's model 302 V8 with a heavy duty 4 speed transmission with the granny first gear along with a lower rear end gear. The rear end is a Ford 9 inch which is geared for pulling. Per the original owner, it was installed to pull his trailer. The following pieces were installed over the last couple months.
The truck cranks up almost instantly and has not given any issues since the new points and condenser were installed. When first cranked, it has a very small amount of smoke but clears up once you go. The motor does not make any ticks, rattles or has no real leaks and the exhaust is nearly new and sounds very good and without being to loud. Here is what else you will get with the truck if the offer is agreed upon.
You can buy this truck and put a little more money and time into it and have a very nice cruiser or rat rod or buy it and drive it like it is. Thanks again for looking and please email, text or call with any other questions! 70four Six eight 5 7 two two 8 - please call after 5pm M-F and anytime on the weekend. |

Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.
Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod
Tue, 21 Oct 2014Woodie wagons were a major part of surfing culture in the 1960s, offering coastal style and a ton of room, and they even earned a mention in the Beach Boys' classic song Surfin' Safari. This week, Jay Leno's Garage takes a look at two modern, restomodded examples of these style icons.
Unlike a lot of restomods, builder Scott Bonowski keeps these wagons looking almost completely stock on the outside, and all of the upgrades are hidden underneath the timber. You can't tell by looking at it, but the '37 Woodie (pictured above) has independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes and a Ford 5.0-liter V8 under the hood.
Beyond the mechanical aspect, the craftsmanship into the wood is astounding. Bonowski claims there are between 30 and 50 coats of varnish on this wagon. It makes these woodies as much of a piece of fine furniture as a vehicle to drive.
