This Lightning is too nice for words to describe. This is a true collectors vehicle.
It was purchased by a collector in NH from a collector in TX. I have a copy of the Texas title and the TX inspection stickers I left on the windshield. (I Like them)
All bone stock. No lowered suspension shackles, no after market cold air air filter, no higher boost lower pulley not even a louder exhaust. All Original virgin truck.
You know all the basics, here are the extras from the factory. Original rubber bottom bed liner, original soft tonneau cover (looks like new) factory applied under coat which was done prior to final assembly of the front and rear fenders - a very rare option for the Lightning.The front bumper has never been drilled at the factory dimpled location sights for the front license plate. When I bought it in the summer of 2012 I had the clear stone guard front end protection film applied and I really like it. I intended to drive it so it was the best solution to protecting the paint from rocks etc and still look great. It can be removed.
There are no door dings, no bumper marks from touching other car bumpers, parking lot fences etc. The wheels are flawless with the original F1 tires and have never been off the truck. No marks on the wheels or lug nuts from wrench etc. Interior is perfect as it should be with 10K miles. My seats remain covered at all times unless parked at a Cruise Night for display. Non smoking environment as well. No food, soda or coffee are ever allowed in my truck! Much to my wife's dismay!
I have taken it on a 600 mile round trip to NJ and the rest of the time it is taken to a Cruise Night or a leisure scenic New England ride. Truck looks, runs and drives perfectly.
I hate to sell it, so here is my short reason for selling.
Two years ago I bought a 2001 Lightning with high mileage. It had the usual mods running about 400 hp. I loved it, but the underneath was rotted. It was obviously used in the New England winters with our salted roads. Too bad as it was otherwise a nice truck. Faced with a choice of extensive rust repairs to a 140K miles truck or replacing it, I chose to replace it. I was not looking for a perfect truck, just one not rusted out with maybe 50-90K miles would have been fine. I found this truck and was in love even though it was a few grand more than i was looking to spend, the newness of it was worth it. I bought it with intentions of doing the usual modifications to bring it up in the 400-420 HP range. I now feel as though the truck is too nice for me to start making modifications to. In addition, it is so nice that I am nervous driving it. So I will sell it and replace it with a higher mileage one with no rust and maybe already fitted with mods. Then I won't feel guilty about altering this perfect virgin and won't be nervous driving a high mileage truck. That being said, I will take your higher mileage Red or maybe white Lightning in trade. Any year second generation model, stock or mods OK. No uncared for trucks in trade.
Clear Mass. title in hand as I paid cash for it. You are welcomed to come here or send someone here to inspect the truck prior to bidding or even after you bought it. If it is not what I say, you can back out of the sale. This truck was always garaged and babied. It is currently stored for the winter in a heated facility with three, yes three fitted covers on it. When warm weather is here I keep it in my yard under cover. If I drive it as soon as I pull in the yard I pull the cover from the back of the truck and put the cover on before I do anything else. A bit anal perhaps, but I paid a lot for a very nice truck. I intend to keep it nice. Not taken out in rain or driven after first snow fall so it is never exposed to salt, not even dry dusty salt.
Payment in cash preferred. Certified bank check drawn on Bank of America or other bank with branch in Massachusetts. Checks must be cashed by me and cleared prior to truck leaving. If shipping, you must make the arrangements. I prefer to have you come here with cash, see it, drive it and pay for it so we are both happy with the deal. 978-632-7005 days.

This is what a 3D-printed liquid metal Ford Torino looks like
Sat, 12 Oct 2013Artist Ioan Florea has encapsulated a 1971 Ford Torino with 3-D-printed liquid metal transferred onto the car using technology that he developed, and the result is a stunningly shiny, seamless design.
"The surface has the highest coefficient of reflectivity never achieved before," Florea told us in an e-mail, using "nano-materials and nano-pigments that create an internal three-dimensional structure and dictate the polymer how to behave." Sure... We'll leave it to him to make any more 3-D-printed liquid metal-transferred art pieces.
Florea grew up in Romania, and the motivation behind picking the old Ford as his canvas came from his childhood memories of what an American car is - "big and wide and fascinating," he says - and the European name of the car itself, which it shares with an Italian city.
2015 Ford Focus gets more Aston-y [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014With more and more members of the Ford brand adopting a new familial face, the Focus has been left looking like an odd man out. At the Geneva Auto Show, though, it properly rejoined the family, adopting the now familiar Aston Martin-ish grille that's proliferated throughout the range.
Overall, we're liking the refreshed Focus' look. Aside from the new grille, the headlights have been restyled and now look like elongated versions of the lamps on the Focus ST. Functionally, those headlamps are bi-xenon units, complete with an adaptive front lighting system. Out back, the rear retains the same overall look, which has been smoothed out for 2015.
In the cabin, the second-generation of Ford's much-maligned Sync system makes its debut. Sync 2, as it's called, is supposedly more intuitive than the first-gen system. Ford is promising "one-shot" navigation functions for the system. Saying "I'm hungry," should bring up a list of nearby restaurants. Of course, we'll be reserving final judgment until we can test the new system in person.
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.
