After upgrading my maintainer service body to a larger chassis, i have up for sale a very nice F450 superduty chassis. This truck is 99 percent rust free, and in excallant shape. This truck has all orginal paint and no rust in the cab corners, under the doors, under the wheel wells, or in the typical ford places. This truck has always spent its life inside a heated shop, finding one of these truck in this condtion is a rare find espically in northern Illinois! I have over 75 pictures of this truck, if more are needed feel free to email at tryagn5@yahoo.com, or call at 630 677 1530. The frame is in excallant shape, and does not have any rust holes or rotted areas typical of an older ford chassis. Also the old bed was bolted to the chassis so there has been no welding to the frame of the chassis. I have power washed the chassis, so its nice and clean and easily inspected.
The truck is equiped with bucket seats and console. Cruise control and air condtioning, The truck runs and shifts well. I have replaced the clutch, fuel pump, fan motor, oil cooler seals, and fan cage. I have put 25k miles on this truck and it has always ran well. The engine is the 7.3 powerstroke equiped with the 5 speed. The 1997 superduty were the best superduty for mileage, I could average 16mpg on the highway. Also everthing works on the truck, interior, extreior lights, markers, ac, dome light, cruise, and heat. The truck does not leak spots on the driveway. This truck is ready to go another 200k! This would be a perfect flatbed truck or another srv truck. I wish i had a use for it as this truck is the cleanest superduty i have seen! Also how often do 1997 trucks have just 144k?
My reserve is set at 5k, as this is a steal for this truck, the truck can be test driven, or inspected. Its currently parked in a heated shop in Montgomery Illinois and the inspector is more then welcome to test the truck to his specs. Also the truck could be driven home if the buyer wants to install rear lights and mud flaps, Im more then willing to help the buyer install them to drive it home. I will assist the buyer any way I can, also the truck is for sale locally so i can cancel the auction at anytime. Also the windshield is cracked at the bottom, still passes safety lane so I never changed it. The truck is currently set up with a PTO, which will be removed prior to the sale.
Any questions?

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper.
For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011.
The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors.
Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue
Fri, 22 Feb 2013It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
