!965 Ford 1 Ton F-350 2nd Owner on 2040-cars
Palisade, Colorado, United States
|
I`ve had this workhorse 22 years. It mostly sat around or hauled light loads.since 1992. Recently sent the carb out for reman (Autolite 1100) Fuel pump & filter, 180 deg thermostat & iron housing, Water pump, Radiator hose & cap, heater hoses, battery, ignition key & lock, new clutch spring, cleaned gastank & line. Topped off tranny, tires & differential. Greased the driveline ball joints & kingpins. Fresh oil change & fram filter. restored oilbath air cleaner. The radiator was replaced with an exact replacement from Modine (oem supplier I`m told) back in the 90`s and it remains in excellent undamaged condition. Can`t call it new, but it sure looks it.
There`s no pumping the gas pedal or choking/ unchoking it, You just barely flick the key & it starts & purrs. It`s jetted & set for 5000 feet altitude. Motor is a 150 horse 240 cubic inch straight 6. Runs excellently. Trans is a New Process np435 4 speed with a super low granny gear. Differential is a Dana 70 that`s geared at I believe a 5.87:1 ratio so top end is mid to upper 50`s mph range while low end pulling power is impressive. 7.50x 16 wheels & tires, 7 of `em. The 9 ft flatbed with header & sides was made in December `64 so I`m sure it`s been on it since day one. It has factory overload springs and can haul way more than a ton. Carb & engine block still have their original tags. I watch ebay for trucks like these and see maybe 3 if that, in any given year. So either they`re rare or the people that have `em aren`t parting with them. They hardly ever come up for sale. Unlike the 1/2 & 3/4 ton pickups this one has the large inner fenders and wheel well openings and the battery compartment under the foor. You see this on factory 4wd & one ton trucks only. The upholstery needs repadded & a new cover, headliners not great, could use a windshield & rubber mounting. But the body looks to be rust free. I have a free & clear Colorado title in hand. I named her "Betty Ford" because she`s a tough ol` gal. Neither Betty is any kind of lightweight & this one just came out of rehab !

Ward's reveals annual 10 Best Engines list for 2013
Thu, 13 Dec 2012Ward's Auto has released its annual 10 Best Engines award winners. The 2013 list covers the full width and breadth of the internal combustion spectrum, from a spate of efficient four-cylinders to the most powerful production V8 on the planet. As always, the entries must be available in a production vehicle in the first quarter of 2013 with an MSRP of less than $55,000. The supercharged 3.0-liter V6 from the Audi S5 held on for the fourth consecutive year, and BMW earned two spots on the list with its turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder and turbo 3.0-liter inline-six.
Ford pulled in two awards for its 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder and and the supercharged 5.8-liter V8 from the Shelby GT500. Honda matched BMW and Ford with two wins of its own. Wards awarded the 2.4-liter four-cylinder from the Honda Accord Sport as well as the 3.5-liter V6 from the Honda Accord. Chrysler, General Motors and Subaru each garnered a spot on the list as well for the 3.6-liter V6 in the Ram 1500, the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the Cadillac ATS and the 2.0-liter four-cylinder the Subaru BRZ, respectively. You can read the full press release below for more information.
Ford Fiesta ST orders off to strong start
Fri, 17 May 2013We at Autoblog love the new little Ford Fiesta ST, and apparently, folks in Europe are pretty impressed with it, as well. According to Ford, the automaker's European arm has already logged 3,000 orders for the new hot hatch since it hit dealerships this March. The US-spec car, which will only be available as a five-door, will go on sale in the United States this summer.
What's perhaps most interesting about the Fiesta ST ordering is that the majority of customers appear to be ordering high-spec cars. According to Ford data, 60 percent of customers have opted for the leather interior with Recaro buckets, and 90 percent have selected the upgraded 17-inch wheels (seen on our test car, above). Spirit Blue has been the most popular color, commanding 27 percent of all orders. As for the technology upgrades, 19 percent of customers have ponied up for the Sony stereo with navigation.
To recap, the Fiesta ST is offered with Ford's 1.6-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, putting out 179 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. We had an absolute blast flinging the hot Fiesta through the French Alps, and we can't wait for this sharp little hatch to make its way over to the States.
Ford F-150 King Ranch celebrates 'history and authenticity' for 2015 [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014What's life like on an authentic Texas ranch? We honestly have no idea, having never lived on such a ranch, but we imagine it requires lots of hard work, grit and determination to keep all 825,000 acres - that's larger than the state of Rhode Island - of the King Ranch in Texas under control. Indeed, a total of 350 vehicles, all of which come from Ford, we're told, are currently in use by the ranch. No wonder, then, that the collaboration between Ford and King Ranch has lasted for 15 successful years.
For 2015, in celebration of that 15th anniversary, Ford is debuting three new King Ranch models today at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The most significant is the 2015 F-150 King Ranch, which, naturally, will add unique interior and exterior bits and pieces to the new aluminum-intensive F-Series pickup. Color choices will consist of Caribou, Bronze Fire, Guard and Ruby Red Metallic Clearcoat, with a range of two-tones to go along with a monochromatic scheme in Caribou. Inside, a bespoke King Ranch interior will be swathed in Premium Mesa Brown leather.
Joining the F-150 King Ranch on dealership floors later this year will be 2015 King Ranch editions of the Super Duty pickup and Expedition fullsize SUV, all of which will offer similar levels of content. Scroll down for more details and two videos from Ford, and be sure to check out the high-res image gallery above, which was shot by the official State Photographer of Texas, Wyman Meinzer.
