1976 Ford F100 With Utility Bed, 83,000 Original Miles!!!!! on 2040-cars
Elk River, Minnesota, United States
|
This vehicle was originally purchased by the State of Minnesota and used at Minnesota State University on campus for work related functions. The miles are original and the vehicle still has the 1996 tires that were installed at that time. The tires will need to be replaced for safety purposes. I purchased the vehicle a month ago to drive as a daily driver and have completed some work on it since purchasing it. Because I sold another vehicle and took a trade on it, I am going to drive the trade I accepted and in turn sell this truck. It is a great truck and runs really well. The transmission is strong and works well without any grinding, etc. The clutch is not new, I don't know if it is the original or not, but it still operates properly. Since the truck had been sitting for a few years, I have repaired the accelerator pump in the carb; I have installed new rear brake wheel cylinders and brake linings with new brake fluid; I have installed a new master brake cylinder; installed new mufflers on the dual exhaust system (Thrush Glass Packs) with new tips on the ends (Sounds Awesome); fixed an exhaust leak at the exhaust manifold at the tail pipe connection; repaired the window washing reservoir and tips at the windshield to insure that they work properly; all of the utility box doors operate and lock properly- and they are clean inside without much damage; all the lights work on the truck. This is not a perfect truck but without much more work on it to do I was planning on driving it as a daily driver. It turns a lot of heads driving down the road. Please only bid if you have the capacity and positive ebay history to substantiate your bid. I have placed a minimum sale price on it that I will accept. I will deliver in the Twin Cities metropolitan area and will assist your transportation carrier in making it available for pick-up, etc. I am requiring a $500 deposit on the bid acceptance within 24 hours after the final bid time line. Final payment needs to be in the form of cash or a certified check from a local bank that operates in Elk River, Minnesota so that I can be assured that payment is bankable. Thanks for looking and don't let this one get away, it is a great truck. I just sold my 1946 Chevrolet with a Utility Bed on it, an old Bell Lineman truck and the wife won't let me keep this truck and the trade-in I received selling the 46. That's life!!!

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
Ford Escort Concept goes back to basics
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Here's the thing about China: The folks buying cars there have a very different set of standards than shoppers in many other markets around the globe. While we all drool over hot metal with bold designs, and while we appreciate automakers going an extra step to inject even their cheapest offerings with aggressive and interesting cues, that sort of sheetmetal sex appeal doesn't always sell in the People's Republic. Case in point is Jaguar, which may be designing a more traditional-looking version of its XJ for the Chinese market, or more to the point of this story, Ford currently sells the less-exciting, last-generation Focus compact in China right alongside the new one.
So consider this new Shanghai-bound C-segment concept a preview of what's to come for that more traditional, budget-minded, less-sexy market. More proof of this pudding: Ford's even calling this concept the Escort - a nod to the Blue Oval's compact car days of yore, and a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design. "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious," Ford states. And this new Escort concept previews a possibility of providing exactly that for this rapidly expanding automotive market.
What you're looking at, then, is one of the most simple Ford designs we've seen of late, though it still incorporates all of the automaker's latest DNA. The signature hexagonal grille is front and center, flanked by attractive LED headlamps and chrome-rimmed foglamp housings. The entire car's design focuses on clean, smooth surfaces, with one strong character line flowing from front to back just below the beltline. We will say that the car looks decidedly more premium from the rear view, where narrow, horizontal taillamps with an LED accent give the car added visual width. Bland as it may be, it's a handsome little concept, though fear what would likely happen if all of the conceptual details get dumbed down for a production model.
2015 Ford Mustang invades SEMA, led by King Cobra
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Ford showcased more than a dozen customized 2015 Mustangs at its sprawling 20,000-square foot display this week at the Las Vegas Convention Center as the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary celebration continued at the SEMA Show.
While Mustangs are always a hot commodity at SEMA, the new generation brought increased attention from the aftermarket, as builders like Galpin Auto Sports, Richard Petty's Garage and Vaughn Gittin Jr. offered their takes on the new 'Stang.
The extensive display included a range of Mustangs from mild to wild, with everything from a 600-plus horsepower King Cobra pictured at the top, to paint-and-wheel packages. The new regal Cobra, which we spied early in our SEMA adventure this year, may not be the replacement for the Cobra Jet as we speculated, but it does seem to point the way forward for the next iteration of a supreme Ford dragster. Fat drag slicks out back make it's reason for being abundantly clear, and for tells us that modded car is good for a 10.97-second quarter-mile run.
