1966 Ford F100 on 2040-cars
Cheyenne, Wyoming, United States
|
For auction, 1 farm fresh 1966 for F100 pickup truck, This truck is a custom cab, long wheelbase truck with a 352 Y-block engine and a (granny low) 4 speed manual trans. This truck would be a daily driver if I did not have a company pickup truck. If you are the winning bidder you can pick it up and drive anywhere in the country. It runs smooth and shifts very smooth. This truck does not have power steering or brakes but it is still a very easy truck to drive. Parking lots are a little tough but still do-able. The exterior was repainted a long time ago and the red and white top have a great patina that gives it the great original look. The left front fender was damaged when the previous owner forgot to torque the lugs when he rotated the tires himself. There is a little rust in the floorboards but none in the outer body. The truck spent 46 years in western Nebraska so it has very little rust. The interior is in pretty good condition with the exception of the aftermarket seat cover is starting to tear. I bought this truck with the intention of making it a streetrod. I just cannot bring myself to alter such a nice old example of a 1966 f100. It does have emblems and hub caps from a 1969 f100 Ranger that were added somewhere along the way. Rear marker lights and low mount swing away mirrors and bed rails were also added but could easily be returned to stock. Add ons look good and have resale value if you go back to original. This truck is lots of fun and gets lots of looks and comments. Bid with confidence because this truck has what truck guys want. |

James Franco and tiger tease Ford Super Bowl commercial
Sat, 01 Feb 2014Ford has just released a teaser for its Super Bowl ad, and unlike just about every other automaker, it seems that the Blue Oval is going to make us wait until Sunday to see the full spot. The teaser is, um, strange.
It stars James Franco, who believes he is Ron Riggle, the comedian, Fox NFL Sunday host and retired Marine lieutenant colonel. There's also a tiger. The vague spot has Franco claiming that "this is no ordinary commercial." You'll note on the bottom right, there's a Ford logo and the hashtag #nearlydouble.
According to Automotive News, it's part of a massive viral effort being pushed forward by Ford and its dealerships. Ford sent different teasers and "vignettes" to dealership employees and asked them to share them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, in the hopes of creating a viral effect.
Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes
Fri, 07 Dec 2012At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.
