1975 Ford F-100 Xlt Ranger 4x2 ((low Miles)) ***survivor*** on 2040-cars

Year:1975 Mileage:10347
Location:

 This is it!!!  A virtual time capsule!!  A true survivor in GREAT shape for a 39 year old truck!!  This is the one you've been looking for!  All of the green paint appears to be original, some of the white has been repainted.  It does not appear to have had any rust repair.  The pictures show some minor paint "bubbling".  Also, the truck has some hail damage mainly isolated to the hood.  I'm not sure if the hail shows in the pictures.  Even inside the bed of the truck is very good with normal scratches but no rust!!  Tailgate is nice, the trim around the truck has some dings etc but the body shows no dents.  Pretty good for surviving almost 40 years!!  The interior is very nice.  The seat is firm and not broken down, there is however some rips in the driver's area of the seat...as you can see.  Nice door panels with some minor warping. Original headliner that's a little warped also.  Dash is excellent with NO cracks or discolorations!!

Options:  390 V8...C6 automatic, factory AC.  It is unknown if the AC works, the compressor is not frozen up.  High line trim package XLT Ranger.  Factory box side tool box.  Please note: The lock is frozen and the door hasn't been opened for YEARS.

Mechanically the truck starts, runs and drives very nice.  The cab is tight with very minimal air leaks.  It's amazing how tight this truck is after all these years!!  Underneath, the truck has some normal seepage around the oil pan, but it's also amazingly dry underneath!!!

The truck has 110,000 actual miles. The listing required the exact 5 digits, so the miles have turned over 100,000.

Any questions??  If you have any I prefer phone calls as I don't check my email regularly. So for a faster response to any questions just give me a call.  Tom 402-650-3849

The fine print:  The reserve is set far below the $5000. mark!!  I feel it's a fair number to allow anyone to own this very nice 1975 F-100.  The winning bidder to send a $500. non-refundable deposit via Paypal within 48 hours end of auction.  The balance to be paid in the form of certified bank funds, bank to bank wire transfer or cash at the time of pick up FOB Omaha, Nebraska. The truck is sold in AS-IS WHERE-IS CONDITION!!  This is a 39 year old truck and I've done my best to honestly describe it's condition and runability.  BID TO OWN...BUT BID ONLY IF YOU FULLY INTEND TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE TRANSACTION...PLEASE!!!

Again...any questions call me anytime!!  Thanks!!

Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.

2016 Ford Taurus to ride atop reworked Fusion platform

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Generally, cars get bigger and heavier as they get older. That's why it looks so ridiculous when you park a classic Mini next to a modern version. The same can be said of the Corvette, the BMW 3 Series, Porsche 911 and, of course, the Ford Taurus. In the Taurus' case, though, that size has become a liability, particularly because the big brute isn't nearly as sizable on the inside as it is on the out.
For 2016, Ford is aiming to rectify that. According to Edmunds, the 2016 Taurus will ride on a stretched and widened Ford Fusion platform. Ford is expecting this move to go a long way in trimming the Taurus' ample body fat.
"The problem with today's Taurus is that it is overweight and even the high performance SHO is not really competitive," said a source that spoke to Edmunds on condition of anonymity. The 365-horsepower SHO variant, "actually weighs about as much as the stretched Audi A8 L. Of course, Audi uses an extensive amount of aluminum, but it is a much bigger car."

Old vs. new debate gets new life with $25,000 Fiesta ST vs. E46 M3 showdown

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

You know who you are. There's probably a few of you reading; the ones that say, "Why would I spend $27,000 on a new Mazda MX-5 when I could get a used Chevrolet Corvette with more power." Yes, we're talking to you, used car proponents. While it is a fair argument, it's not like used cars don't come with drawbacks of their own, though.
In an attempt to put this new-versus-used argument to bed once and for all, Matt Farah of the The Smoking Tire has picked up a pair of $25,000 cars - a used, but lightly modified, 2003 BMW M3 and a 2013 Ford Fiesta ST. Naturally, there's a comparison.
Farah, as he's wont to do, does get into the nitty gritty of what each car is like to drive, and discusses the merits of used and new-car shopping. But as he rightly points out while testing the M3, "So, it is a good car. But like any used car, it really does depend on the individual car."
