What I have here is a 1959 Ford f100 Fleet Side Custom Cab which I believe to be mostly original. I bought this truck on ebay from a gentleman that said he purchased the truck from from a guy who had it in a barn, I believe that to be true. The body is straight with some surface rust but overall is very solid. Engine is a 292 v8 that starts right up and runs like a new one. The truck has been converted to dual exhausts and sounds great. (watch wideo). THe transmission works great and it has a 3 on the tree shifter, fun to drive. The interior is in very good shape for a truck of this age. it has the original radio in it which israre. Makes me think the truck had been in storage for some time. The tail gate is not original to the truck but is flawless. The grill is nice and not bent up and the other chrome is is decent shape. The tires are good and the wheels have a set of ford hub caps on them that i do not believe to be original to the truck but look fine. The oil has been changed, the front brakes relpace, by me. Now what it needs: it needs a radio antena, a right front wiper blade and and both door glass panels have a crack where someone slammed the door to hard. This truck is a candidate for a complete restore as the sheet metal is in great shape as well as the mechanical. Completely restored this truck will fetch 20k easy will be a reall heard turner. Drive it like it is and it is still a head turner.
Now, why am i selling it? Well, my wife dont want me to:-) She loves old cars and trucks: My daughter and her husband are in process for adopting a child. Our family has been donating yard sales stuff to help raise money to offset the cost. As I understand it is 50K via a agency in Texas so every little bit helps. I plan to sell this truck and contribute some of the proceeds to additionally help them financially.
The truck is availble to see prior to bidding if you would like. Any additional questions call me at 3364074963, my name is Mike.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
Chip Foose tastefully enhances his personal Ford GT
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Typically, we'd expect a vehicle from 2006 to fall well short of a more modern vehicle, both in terms of performance and style. Of course, the Ford GT is not your average offering from the Bush era. That's doubly true when the 2006 GT in question belongs to one Chip Foose.
Purchased by his wife as a 50th birthday present, Foose is showing his custom, personalized GT at the 2014 SEMA Show. The 5.4-liter supercharged V8 breathes a bit easier thanks to a full Magnaflow Performance exhaust, but Foose's GT isn't all about the performance.
Instead, the car customizer extraordinaire has focused on tasteful aesthetic enhancement, tweaking the rear end by removing the bumper and trimming the frame extensions. The wheels, meanwhile, are one-off aluminum alloys, designed by Foose himself. Like the stripes, the wheels feature orange accenting.
Ford taken to task by gov't for Chicken Tax end-around
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Ford is in a bit of a pickle for importing and selling Turkey-built Transit Connect cargo vans as passenger vehicles in the US, then converting them to commercial-vehicle specification stateside in an effort to bypass a 25-percent tax imposed on vehicles imported for commercial use. Automakers are required to pay a 2.5-percent tax on imported passenger vehicles.
The Blue Oval got into trouble for this in a January ruling in which U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials asked Ford to stop the practice of importing the Transit Connect vehicles with passenger seats, then removing and shredding them. Now Automotive News reports that Ford is appealing the ruling. The 25-percent "Chicken Tax," as the tariff is often called, is 50 years old and was enacted as a response to a German tariff on chickens. Like Ford, Chrysler bypasses the higher tariff, but it does so in a different manner. It partially disassembles Sprinter cargo vans before shipping them to the US, then rebuilds them at a plant in South Carolina.
But the ruling against Ford's strategy states that it "serves no manufacturing or commercial purpose" and is there to "manipulate the tariff schedule," Automotive News reports. As Ford's appeal goes through, it is importing the Transit Connect and paying the higher tax, hoping for a favorable outcome and planning to build the next-generation Transit Connect, which it plans to launch before the end of the year, in Spain.
