1970 Ford F100 302 V8 3 On The Tree on 2040-cars
Yadkinville, North Carolina, United States
Relisted due to a non-communicating and non-paying bidder. Well its been a long winter but winter is over and time to sell the Black Beauty. This was my winter project 2014 and it seemed to run over due to lack of time on my part. This restoration project includes the following: New paint where the body was worked, primed and sprayed with a quality paint that looks fabulous. All rust was addressed to eliminate the possibility of near term issues. (truck was a good one to start with) It has new aluminum wheels that are 15 x 10 inch with Cooper Cobra Tires just mounted last week. Removed rear bumper and put a roll pan on rear to give it that custom look Bed is solid and had been sprayed. Recovered seat with a new seat cover New Headliner New sun visors New arm rests Refreshed paint in cab New Interior Door handles and locks New Dash Cover New Black Pile Carpet New Bed Side Marker lights New Shocks all around New steering rag joint (tightened steering) New dual Exhaust front to rear with glass pack mufflers The truck drives and handles as it should. When I bought the truck I was told the engine had just been gone through but i cannot confirm that. It does start on the first try and runs like a top. It steers tight and brakes as it should. The trunk is a real head turner guys (and gals). I cant drive it to town without people stopping and commenting on how nice it looks. That is typically what I shoot for on my projects as whats the point if people don't like what the end product is. The truck sounds great, the transmission changes as it should and the clutch appears to be strong with no slippage. I am not an expert restoration guy by no means and hire the big stuff done by the pros like the paint job. Please ask any questions you may have and bid with confidence this is a sharp ride. Mike |

Ford idling Michigan Assembly Plant to trim Focus, C-Max supply
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Ford will be putting the brakes on production at its Michigan Assembly Plant in Wayne, MI, idling production during the weeks of October 28 and December 16. Ford is citing the first drop in US sales in 27 months, a 4.2-percent dip in September, as the impetus for trimming their supplies, according to Automotive News.
Ford's deft management of its supplies has been part of its success over the years, and seeing supplies of Focus and C-Max, the two vehicles built at MAP, rise from 58 and 108 days, respectively, to 71 and 122 days over the span of a month was apparently all that was need to justify the trimming. As AN points out, the rule of thumb for many automakers is to maintain a 60-day supply of vehicles.
"Ford has been focused on keeping their pricing in check. Their operating margin is in double digits. Nobody else is there and they're obviously very proud of that," Alan Baum, an auto analyst with Baum & Associates told AN. Keeping the supply chain operating smoothly and not increasing supplies too much is crucial to that healthy profit margin. After all, a large supply lowers prices ,which, in turn, cuts profit. So while this news might not be great for employees at MAP, who now have an extra two weeks of vacation time, it's far from a sign of problems in Dearborn. Quite the opposite, actually.
Barrett-Jackson 2014: First production 2015 Ford Mustang earns $300k for JDRF [w/video]
Sat, 18 Jan 2014We've almost become immune to the huge dollar amounts that collectible cars earn for charity at Barrett-Jackson. To wit, $300,000 for the first production 2015 Ford Mustang initially didn't seem like very much money. In reality, though, it's probably about 10 times the actual asking price for the car, and we're pleased to report that 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
According to Ford, the car's winning bidder will get to "choose a fastback with manual or automatic transmission, and any interior, exterior and stripe color combination offered by Ford on the all-new Mustang." Power will come from a slightly revised version of the well-known 5.0-liter V8 engine that will produce "more than 420hp and 396 pound-feet of torque."
We snapped live images of the 2015 Mustang prototype that Ford had on display here at Barrett-Jackson, and you can check them out above. The official auction description, along with a video of the auction as it happened live, is below.
Jurassic Park made a big impact on these Jeep drivers
Thu, 12 Jun 2014For a certain cohort of young folks, Jurassic Park is a touchstone film from their childhood. Not only did it play into practically every little boy's love of dinosaurs, the movie included some great action scenes and special effects that still hold up today. In its latest video, The Aficionauto takes a look the Jurassic Park Motor Pool, a California car club with over 40 fans who created replica vehicles from the iconic film.
The club is made up of an interesting cross-section of people. Many of them were Jeep Wrangler fans that already loved off-roading and Jurassic Park, and liked the idea of bringing them together. Like any close-knit club, it ends up being about community and people coming together to share their interests. It's quite a heartwarming video. Also, be sure to stay until the end because The Aficionauto teases a future Jurassic Park-themed vehicle. Scroll down to check out the motor pool.
