1966 Ford F100 - Vintage Twin Beam, Rare, Repainted, Rebuilt Original 352 V8 on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
1966 F100 twin beam. Great riding and driving tuck. A show stopper that turns head wherever it goes. It has super sharp red and white exterior with red and black interior. Has a great classic engine growl..... Incredibly fun truck! Whenever I drive it, passer-bys, honk their horns and give the thumbs up!!!
Engine and front end rebuilt, V8 352", 3 on a stick upgraded to Auto (C6?), nice two tone recent paint job, reupholstered seats, new floor cover, original OEM radio AM restored for authenticity with iPhone jack (note: one speaker mono in dash), new battery, many restoration touches. Comes with original Ford instruction manual, seems to have been originally sold in Florida (from name inside original instruction manuall). From what I was told from original owner (but I do not have any documentation on this), truck has had a rebuilt front end, new rings, bearings, timing gear chain, starter, fuel pump, and more. I added the original AM radio from that period (mono one speaker in dash) with the iphone jack (Joe's Classic Car Radio added small circuit board integrated into older system!). I had work finished which includes new distributor, Weber carburator totally rebuilt, repaired emergency brake by finding missing undercarriage lever, added red seat belts to match red upholstery, replaced all fluids, and other maintenance, and it wasn't cheap. Engine starts right up. Sounds great..... (in California you are not required to to Smog, so its has great original sound!) Truck runs good. Looks like it has not been in any accidents for we saw no puddy, etc. work underside. I also added interior side panels on doors with original aluminum trim (not pictured). Truck bed looks like it was covered in black powdercoat. More pictures coming. I did not initially restore the truck and so cannot verify all claims nor was I given any paperwork. Truck was purchased to use as a picture vehicle in some media and was driven very little in the last year, but enough to keep it well-running. For that reason, I cannot offer any in depth details as I was not part of the major restoration process. So there are no implied warranties or guarantees. Truck is sold "as is." Buyer must pick up or arrange own transportation or hauling. |

Reborn Ford Escort could make its way to Europe
Fri, 26 Apr 2013The Ford Escort concept just unveiled at the Shanghai Motor Show was created with the Chinese market in mind, but it's got people talking all over the world. Not purely fancy, the point of the Escort concept was to give Chinese buyers a preview of what they could expect to see in a Ford showroom in the near future. If Ford wasn't seriously considering the new Escort for other countries, a report in Auto Express indicates that the concept's reception has changed all that.
No less than the incoming chairman of Ford UK said "it could work in other places," bolstering the comments of "a senior Ford insider" who said the question of bringing the car to Europe to slot in underneath the Focus had been raised. That's a long way from anything of the kind happening, which would require Ford to figure out how to sell it for the right price and not torpedo the company reputation among Euro buyers. In any case, we'd be as intrigued as anyone if an Escort resurrection created the next 'who knew?' market segment of few-frills transportation offered by non-Asian carmakers.
FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.
Ford confirms 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine for 2014 Fusion
Thu, 11 Apr 2013Earlier this week, reports were swirling 'round the internet about the 2014 Ford Fusion getting a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. That was... half correct. Ford today confirmed that the 2014 Fusion is, in fact, getting a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost mill, but it has four cylinders, not three.
The new 1.5-liter engine will be the fifth EcoBoost powerplant from Ford Motor Company. Initially to be built at the automaker's Craiova, Romania plant, it will also be offered in the Fusion's twin, the Mondeo, in other markets. This engine will debut at the Shanghai Motor Show next month, and the 1.5-liter is of particular importance in the Chinese market - there is significant tax relief in the People's Republic for vehicles powered by engines with a capacity of 1.5 liters or less.
At a media briefing Thursday, Ford declined to divulge exact power or fuel economy numbers, though Joe Bakaj, vice president of powertrain engineering, told Autoblog that power output should be similar to that of the current 1.6-liter inline-four, and that overall efficiency will be "better than the 1.6." Our earlier report stated that the 1.5-liter four will produce 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque - losses of 1 hp and 7 lb-ft versus the 1.6-liter engine. Ford states that the 1.5-liter four will feature many of the same technologies used on the company's 1.0-liter EcoBoost inline-three, including an integrated exhaust manifold that recaptures much of the engine's heat.
