1973 Ford (F-11) F-100 Ranger 4x4 Original old school 4wd Correct numbered chassis & trim. Only 88K miles on box 'A' title. True factory 4x4 model, not an aftermarket conversion. Anyone can 'say' their truck is rust free. But if it's been repainted then you will never know what the previous owner started out with, how much body work or bondo was required, etc. It might have been a rusty old pile of junk that someone threw a bunch of money and now the owner claims that "rust free". You cannot restore a vehicle 'back' to original, as it's truly only original once. So, it's either a survivor or it isn't. This truck is an AZ rust free totally unrestored with all original 1973 Ford sheetmetal, paint, trim. Please look at data plate info below and compare to what truck has in it now. As you can see it's pretty darn close. If you have any questions please feel free to call me Mike at 623-465-0636 NADA average retail $9,200 and high retail is $15,200. I have reserve set FAR BELOW these prices, in fact it is closer to average WHOLESALE range. Someone is going to get an extremely nice truck at a great price. Original VIN & DATA PLATE shows as: WheelBase -133 (full length long box), Engine -Y-(360 2v), Axle -H2J-(3.50 Limited Slip), Trans -A-(4 speed man. 'New Process 435'), DSO -75-(Phoenix), Body -034-(Ranger cab Styleside), Color -8R-(Dark Yellow), Model -F113-(F-100 4x4), GVWR - 5700lbs. I purchased this low mileage F-100 right here in Phoenix (sold here and has been here it's whole life) and have been driving and updating for the last 3 years. 88,036 miles. All original paint, sheetmetal, & trim looks extremely nice so miles may be original. Very slight body damage to right rear sheet metal & trim at wheel well (see photo) otherwise all original and excellent. I believe hood and cabin top were re-painted long ago, but rest of truck is original. Comes with vintage aluminum/wood shell. Trailer hitch with lights. Stereo added. Custom package tray shelf in cab above windshield works great and looks good. Custom headliner (Ford) inscribed with chromed buttons (looks great, very cool old school look). Front chromed push bar with KC lights. Dual fuel tanks both work great with switch & sending units both operational. 4x4 transfer case, hubs, all work great. 4 speed trans. with granny low, and 3 speed (w/neutral) transfer case. Will climb any hill. Ford 9" LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIALS were a factory option and are included here. Originally came with A/C but no belt on compressor. A/C is NON OP at this time. Heater works great, all dash fan, vents, etc. Stereo works great but it's an older cassette type. All original glass is great except windshield cracked over on passenger side (does not hinder drivers vision). Some minor surface rust on chrome front push bar and side mirrors. Came originally with power brakes and these have been all newly rebuilt. Power steering just added with all new OEM Ford parts. All brakes new with new drums, pads, wheel cylinders, wheel bearings, etc. 4 wheel drum brakes work excellent. Parking brake adjusted. Transfer case rear differential all re-sealed with new bearings, etc. New valve cover gaskets. I have all receipts totalling over $4,500 including new tires. Newer gas shocks. Stock ride height---NOT lifted. Truck handles great and is a very smooth and comfortable truck to drive. You'll really like driving this one. The 360 2v motor was the most powerful engine you could get in '73. It has since been upgraded with: aftermarket headers, Edelbrock aluminum 4bbl intake manifold, Edelbrock 4 bbl carb all works excellent. Accel ignition works great. Aftermarket vintage Holley aluminum valve covers (these are rare and very cool). Dual 2-1/4" exhaust all the way back with Cherry bomb style mufflers at tips. Not too loud either. Nice lope to cam, sounds great at idle. Engine starts easy and runs extremely well. This is a great running truck. Vintage American Racing wheels (non-polished), Brand new BFG Rugged Terrain's (less than 200 miles) sized 31x10.5x15's all around. Spare tire & wheel. Bed looks like it had a 5th wheel hitch installed at one time and support bars are still visible on top of bed. KC lights only one working. This truck is solid DRIVER quality, and NOT a concourse show truck. Drive this truck every day and have a ball with it. Nice enough to take to any car show and get a trophy in the unrestored and original class. Extremely hard to find these trucks in this kind of condition. Most have been hammered and beaten to death or severely rusted out----not this one. Anyone can take a rusted out turd and throw a million dollars at it, and of course it would probably be nicer than this. But, to find one wearing it's original sheetmetal and paint, and driving as nice as this one does would most likely take years of looking to find again. This is a great looking truck and it's ready to go. Please call or email me for information -- Mike at 623-465-0636 INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: I can ship out of country for you. Please inquire for prices.

Volvo to shake off Ford ties with new platforms, engines
Sat, 23 Feb 2013
It would seem Volvo is finally getting around to throwing all of Ford's things out of the apartment. Automotive News reports the Swedish automaker is preparing to unleash a range of new engines as well as a fresh platform designed entirely in house. The powerplants include an all-new four-cylinder engine set to bow before the end of this year before arriving in the US by 2014. Shortly thereafter, the world should get its first glimpse at the next-generation XC60, which will the company's first model to make use of the Volvo scalable platform architecture (SPA). US buyers can expect to see that machine on their roads by early 2015.
The next V70 and S80 will also use the SPA, though those models will carry V90 and S90 designations when they hit dealer floors. But that doesn't mean Volvo has completely weened itself off of Ford technology. The V40 will continue to ride on Ford bones until the model's next chassis can be co-developed between Volvo and Geely.
Ford bringing C-Max Solar Energi Concept to CES
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Solar energy might not be enough to power a usable electric vehicle on its own, but that doesn't mean it can't lend a helping hand. And that's what Ford has in store for the Consumer Electronics Show opening next week in Las Vegas.
Ford has essentially taken its C-Max Energi plug-in hybrid and fitted it with the latest in solar panel technology developed by SunPower, acting like a magnifying glass to capture as much of the sun's energy as possible. So you get the benefit of an electric vehicle, with the range assurance of a hybrid, without needing to draw from the grid.
Ford estimates that a day of charging in the sunshine will give the C-Max Solar Energi concept the same full charge as the production PHEV, with a total range of 620 miles - 21 of which can be run on electric power alone. Otherwise the vehicle - which remains a concept for the time being - is identical to the existing C-Max Energi. The top-selling model in Ford's growing hybrid and electric vehicle portfolio helps put Ford just behind Toyota among the top seller of hybrids in America. Scope out the images in the gallery above and the video clip and press release below for a closer look.
Toyota tops Consumer Reports best, worst used car values
Tue, 18 Mar 2014We often mock Toyota for building boring, soulless cars, but a new study by Consumer Reports suggests that regardless of whether that's true, the company has some of the best used cars on the market. In its report on used cars from 2004-2013, the Japanese automaker had 11 vehicles among its brands on the list - more than any other automaker.
CR breaks the list down by cost and vehicle size, and Toyota has at least one entry at every price point and in nearly every segment. To score a recommendation, a vehicle had to perform well in the magazine's initial tests and score above-average reliability results. It also tried to only suggest cars with electronic stability control. Of the 28 recommended vehicles, Honda/Acura had the second most mentions at six, and Ford, Hyundai and Subaru managed two each.
The Detroit brands also made it to the list, but not in a positive way. Consumer Reports compiled a list of 22 vehicles it wouldn't recommend because "they have multiple years of much-worse-than-average overall reliability." General Motors had the most unrecommended models on the list at six, but Chrysler and Ford weren't far behind, with five cars each from their brands not making the grade. The full list of recommendations is available on CR's website.
