Thanks for looking at my 71 short bed. It has a DJM dream beam and shackle 2-4 lowered suspension, a freshly re-ringed, (rings, rod bearings, main bearings all standard) .282/.292 duration and .486/.512 lift cam and lifter kit std bore 429 from a 70 Torino and c6 . DOVE head castings. I just finished the engine and have driven it 75-100 miles. It does blow oil from either the dipstick or breather - haven't figured out which yet, rings still not set in. 9 inch rear. Dont know what gear ratio. I believe 4:10's. Shifts good, starts and runs great - it has a new B & M Truck mega shifter. It needs a rear seal on the transmission. It has new tires and rims. Brakes work and heater works. Headlights, tailights, turn signals all work. Dash gauges are out of larger Ford, I believe an F550, and are not hooked up except for fuel level. The dash pad has cracks. I installed a set of gauges on top of the dash to moniter water temp and oil pressure. I installed a new sliding rear window. The windshield has cracks on passenger side - all other glass is fine and all weatherstrip is good. It has a new aluminum radiator. The exhaust is hooked up for sound control, but not complete, I have new Magnaflow mufflers and all tubing is new, just needs a professional exhaust bent to be perfect. It could use a final tune up as far as carburator and timing, but I did install new plugs, wires, distributor, carb, and intake...I just dont have the time to finish, new projects have taken priority.The only rust on truck is the bed - not rotted, just holes. I did rino line the bed and put a bed mat down, so it looks good. I stripped the body down to bare and then applied an epoxy primer. It's not a bad truck, I would say about 80 percent done, you could drive it daily. She's got dings and dents but lots of character. Please email me with any questions. No personal checks, USA sales only, paypal or certified bank checks ok.

Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here
Fri, 07 Mar 2014A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
