Garden Valley, Idaho, United States
|
This auction is for a 1969 Ford F250 Camper Special with original Goldline Camper as sold in the 1960s as a package! How awesome is that.
I will try and be as thorough as I can and matter of fact. Please, if you have any questions whatsoever, please ask. If you want to see additional photo's, no problem! I inherited this truck and what a truck it is. All I can say is the gentleman took care of this truck! I am not certain that he washed it much, but look how it buffed out on the left rear bed panel! That took about an hour and amazed the heck out of me. Why did they stop using that great paint? 45 year old shine. The engine is sweet. Fires right up and purrs. The odometer reads 200K+. I don't have details but this engine has been gone through. Orange RTV is evident. I put a vacuum gauge on it and it reads a strong 17 with absolutely no shake! It has a Holley carb that I don't thinks came stock... I wish I knew more details, but they do speak for themselves. Everything works like it was designed to do including the original radio! The camper has a cook stove/oven, a furnace, shelves and bed. All of which is baby blue color. The ext of camper has a few dings. That is what was and is so great about those Goldlines though, they are easily maintained! Just fill the ding with some construction foam and fiberglass over! Subzero tight! The truck has almost new Michelin XCX/APT tires. No tailgate because of camper. The camper is off right now. It just makes it easier to work on. Dash is not cracked. Good headliner and visors. Everything is in such a condition that with a bit of TLC, a full restore would not be that difficult for the potential return. Or just use it as is because it works! Original bench seat gone, replaced by two mismatched buckets. His comfort was #1. Cracked windshield. Dual fuel tanks. Newer dual overload springs on rear. I can't think of anything else, until you ask me! I am more than happy. Have fun Ford Truck lovers! Of course it is as is and free local pick up. That being said, I will send a video of engine running, help with arranging shipment... No sweat! Whatever we need to do. I do ask for an immediate nonrefundable payment of $500 a auction close. Balance in full in seven days. Of course you are always protected under EBAY purchasing policies! |

Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average
Tue, 11 Jun 2013We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).
Ford reveals all-new Everest SUV at Asia-Pacific forum [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Nov 2014While the Explorer may have shifted from a truck-based sport-ute to a car-based crossover, Ford still offers buyers on the other side of the Pacific a Ranger-based SUV in the form of the Everest. And at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in Beijing today, the Blue Oval revealed the all-new version you see here.
Previewed in concept form over a year ago and made specifically for the Asia-Pacific market, the new Ford Everest is designed to be more refined on the road and more capable off of it. Like the Explorer once was, the new Everest is based on a stretched version of the overseas Ford Ranger pickup. Depending on the specific market, Ford will offer the new Everest with a range of engines including a 2.0-liter EcoBoost turbo four and two Duratorq turbodiesels - a 2.2-liter four and a 3.2-liter inline-five - mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
Earmarked to take on the likes of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX) and the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the new Everest promises rock-crawlers even better off-road capabilities. It's got nearly nine inches of ground clearance, over 30 inches of wading depth, a 29-degree approach and 25-degree departure angles and a set of features including on-the-fly adjustable four-wheel drive.
Crowdsource funding push on to save historic Ford buildings
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Detroit has no shortage of old, abandoned buildings, both within the city and in the surrounding communities. Few, though, have the historical significance of the old Ford Highland Park facility. Home to the very first moving assembly line, Highland Park was designed by the legendary Albert Kahn, and was one of the homes of the Model T.
Now, the Woodward Avenue Action Association is attempting to buy both the 40,000-square-foot admin building, which is located off the historic Woodward Avenue, and an 8,000-square-foot garage. The WAAA's goal is to convert the buildings into an automotive heritage center. The Detroit News spoke to the interim director of the WAAA, Deborah Schutt, who commented, "[Metro Detroit has] not been very good at telling our own story. So we've decided, let's pull everything together and tell our story."
The WAAA made an offer of $550,000 to buy the two buildings, and has $400,000 from the Michigan Department of Transportation and another $15,000 from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. It's trying to raise a further $125,000 through crowd-sourcing, starting a campaign called "Five Dollars A Day," after old Hank Ford's $5-per-day wage for line workers.
