Year:1963 Mileage:46945
Location:

Oak Forest, Illinois, United States

Oak Forest, Illinois, United States

1963 E100 Econoline Pickup:

  • Very solid, great running truck
  • Currently licensed and insured and is driven to cruise nights and car shows on a daily basis
  • It is painted in an amateur old school enamel satin white, complete with very tasteful TURQUOISE pinstriping and wide white portawalls with freshly sandblasted and painted TURQUOISE wheels with chrome lug nuts.
  • The original drivetrain was recently replaced with a 200 c.i. mustang six with a synchronized 3 on the tree.
  • The speedometer and odometer are slightly out of calibration because of the trans swap but it is reading 46,945 which is the original mileage.
  • The truck is running off a 12 gallon stainless fuel cell so there is no working gas gauge.
  • All turn signals, headlights, tail lights, brake lights, and parking lights work as they should.
  • The temp gauge functions and the ampmeter and oil pressure gauge are working idiot lights.
  • The truck runs and drives incredibly well and gets somewhere upwards of 20 mpg.
  • There is very little bondo in the  truck and this is mostly over some homemade sheet metal patches done many years ago.
  • I am no body man so it will still need some sanding and filling to make these areas better.
  • The wipers work and the heater fan blows and there is a heater core in it but there are no hoses hooked up to it.
  • The horn is currently not working nor are the dash lights.
  • The truck also features the original manual choke which works as it should.
  • The original gas tank is still in place but the condition is unknown.
  • Also the undercarriage has been all blasted and been painted rustoleum satin black.
  • There is one small hole in the passenger side floor and is an easy fix.
  • Also available are a shortened drive shaft & cross member with motor mounts for a V-8 conversion and a set of 14 in. Craiger SS with unilug pattern w/ tires.
  • I also have brand new, in the box, rubber vent window seals which I have not installed.
  • PLEASE CALL BEFORE BIDDING.  I CAN TALK FOR HOURS ABOUT THIS TRUCK.
  • PLEASE NOTE:  The pinstriping and wheels appear to be blue but are TURQUOISE.
  • Call Jim 773-615-4790  (Oak Forest, Illinois)

This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]

Thu, 21 Aug 2014



They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.

Ford Mustang pinball machine has supple wrist, plays by sense of smell [w/video]

Fri, 07 Feb 2014

Ford didn't have anything major to show off at the 2014 Chicago Auto Show, so it seems it instead opted to have some fun - it brought a row of pinball machines to the show. Yes, pinball machines.
We originally told you about the Stern Pinball Ford Mustang machine a few days ago, and as day two of the Chicago show is a bit of a slow one, we opted to head to the show floor and get some snaps of the bank of new machines. Not surprisingly, there's plenty for the Mustang fan in each of these machines, ranging frond different models, to logos to a full model.
Take a look below for our full gallery of live shots, available up top. Then head below for our original gallery of stock images, along with a video and press release on the new machines.

Roush getting back into sport compact business with Focus ST mods [w/video]

Wed, 29 May 2013

Roush Performance offers a whole raft of parts for folks looking to tune their Ford Mustang and F-150 models, and now Focus owners can start getting in on the hotted-up action, too. Owners of the 2012-13 Focus and 2013 Focus ST can now get a Roush cold-air intake system, and ST owners can also opt for a high-performance cat-back exhaust.
Although all of these components are now available for order, the parts will ship sometime in July; no word yet on pricing. Down the road, Roush will also offer styling upgrades for the Focus as well as performance tuning upgrades such as engine controller, suspension, wheels and tires. Scroll down for a quick video of what the Focus ST exhaust sounds like, as well as a Roush press release.
