This truck has so much work done to list.  I have owned this truck now since 2007 and when I purchased it, it was in poor shape (however no rust.)  I have spent thousands of dollars and countless hours restoring this rust free truck.  I went with an origial Ford color from 2005 Ford Zinc Yellow...from the pictures you can see the paint was done right!  The body was pulled off the truck and POR-15 Rust Inhibitive coating was sprayed on undercarriage.  All new Rancho RS9000 shocks were installed along with Fabritech ladder bars in the rear.  The front DANA44 was rebuilt and a Detroit Locker installed with an ARB Red differential cover.  Most of the undercarriage parts that came off including front coil springs, brackets for shocks and mounts were all powder coated.  Front coil spings were powder coated Red.  All new Grade 8 hardware installed everywhere as well as stainless steel.  New exhaust ran with MagnaFlow stainless mufflers.  Brakes were all gone through and new HAWK SuperDuty brake pads installed up front with new Red Powder Coated calipers along with Earl stainless brake lines.  Truck has all stainless steel brake lines throughout truck!  The Ford 9" rear end has new bearings along with a limited slip differential which makes it run on highways and streets smooth.  The Ford 400M motor was rebuilt and rebuilt Aussie closed chamber heads were installed to wake up the motor.  Edelbrock cam was installed along with Edelbrock intake manifold and street avenger carburetor.  Most parts off motor were also powder coated.  A new Saginaw power steering pump was installed and really removed the old Ford power steering problems.  A new chrome alternator was also installed along with a Optima RedTop battery.  All new wiring and cables installed in motor compartment.  Aluminum pulleys were also installed.  Headlights were also installed with new halogen style bulbs and wiring kit to brighten headlights.  New aluminum Ford grill was installed.  All front end wheel wells and radiator housing was pulled off and powder coated black.  New hood springs installed along with all new rubber moldings for doors, hood, and glass.  Alpine CD player installed with USB hook up.  The old Ford gauges were replaced with a custom bezel and new AutoMeter Z gauges.  All LED Green lighting installed inside all gauges to match stock look with a brighter LED light.  The drivetrain was also gone through and the NP435 manual transmission was rebuilt and a new CenterForce clutch installed with a Ranger 27% overdrive.  The Ranger overdrive is awesome and allows for highway cruising at low RPM's so better fuel economy.  At 75MPH the engine idles at 2100 RPM's which is much better for cruising.  The NP205 transfer case was also rebuilt.  The driveshafts were also renewed with new u-joints and sleeves along with new yokes.  This truck trully has been renewed.  There really is too much to list here.  Interior also has new carpet with insulation.  Also has Corbeau Moab seats that are comfortable.  New seat beats (lap beats as that what was stock in 73.)  Grant leather steering wheel and aluminum kit installed.  Interior trim and headliner are all new.  The air conditioning doesn't work and parts were removed during motor restoration.  Heater works awesome and new heater core and hoses installed.  There is an electric fan and four core radiator that keeps the motor running cool through all conditions.  Tires and wheels are in awesome shape and compliment the truck.  I hope I have captured most of the work put into this truck.  This sale is an as is sale.  I do have a Word document list of all work done and when to the truck along with a lot of part numbers.

Fallon picks Ford F-150 King Ranch, launches dealership contest

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

New truck! Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show has been searching for the perfect new truck for a few weeks now, soliciting help from all corners in the process. Last night, Fallon made the announcement that the Ford F-150 King Ranch - in all of its cowboy glory - had been picked as his big winner.
To add some more spice to a storyline that now dips deeply into the realm of the advertorial, Fallon also announced a contest to see which Ford dealership would get the privilege of selling him the King Ranch. Dubbed "Fingers on a 4x4" The Tonight Show has invited 10 dealer reps from around the country to keep their hands on Jimmy's F-150 for as long as possible. Last salesperson standing wins.
Watch Fallon make his pick and introduce the dealer reps below, and be sure to click on the second video for a live-streaming feed of Fingers on a 4x4 in action (the contest seems to be going strong).

How Ford's light lab keeps the sun shining on the new Mustang just right [w/video]

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

Anyone who's bought one of those old school metal shift knobs knows they're really cool until they sit in a parking lot in the sun for a few hours. Then they're not cool at all. Likewise, features such as the aluminum dash on the 2015 Ford Mustang can be all kinds of neat right up until the sun hits it just the right way and sends shards of blinding light through the cabin. The Ford Visual Performance and Evaluation Lab is where engineers figure out how to make sure that doesn't happen.
Cars like said Mustang are parked inside the 30-foot reflecting dome under 6,000 watts of lights that can mimic the sun at any time of day and in any weather condition. Engineers can then spend cold, overcast days inside, testing for interior legibility, glare and reflections on every interior and exterior surface as if it were bright and sunny. They can also learn how a car's sheetmetal and colors will look out of doors, all year round.
Ford showed off the lighting lab without the music and interviews three years ago when the Explorer was being prepared. You can watch it at work again in the video below, and read about it in the press release below that.

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses

Wed, 25 Jul 2012



Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.
