Time for a new home.  My brother has had this truck though 3 kids, and now it needs a new home.  Just a good old truck.  It would be great to help a landscaper, or contractor out.  Could even be a great dedicated camping unit. I would think it should be worth about $1200, but we will let the Ebay bidders set the price.  No Reserve!  Please don't bid if you don't have the money.  Ask questions first.  We will report all scams and non-paying bidders.     For any questions please email:  duran5@roadrunner.com, or if you can keep it short, call Keith at 805-428-4609

The good: 
The truck runs and drives pretty good.  It passed the brake and light inspection to get the salvage title after a minor fender bender last year.  Good tires all around.  It has never left us stranded.  It's got the tow receiver, long bed with a bed liner, and a Kenwood CD player.  Power windows & locks work. The oil changes have always been done on time.  The injector pump was replaced 7 or 8 years ago.  Transmission was rebuilt about 10 years ago at around 180,000 miles.

The bad:  The windshield is cracked. The dual fuel tanks are great, but the fuel gauge doesn't work.  Use the trip meter to judge how far until fuel.  The shift indicator hasn't worked since the steering column was replaced.  It was replaced because the ignition tumbler wore out.  Hole in the roof from a CB antenna, duct tape fixed that.

The ugly:
Salvage title is from a minor fender bender that the insurance company insisted on totaling the truck.  The picture shows the damage to the rear bumper.  The tail lamp has been replaced and the rest is livable.

Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial

Wed, 28 May 2014

How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.

Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.

USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.
