1978 Ford F100 with Short step side bed. Rebuilt engine and transmission. Tranny is a Borg Warner T-10 Built proof 4 speed with Granny Gear. Built for mudding pulling and low end torque. Engine is a Ford 351M bored 40 over with Keith black coated flat top pistons. The connecting rods are eagle h beam - all the nuts and bolt are replaced with ARP bolts crank shaft is also eagle. Engine is converted from points to HEI. Carb is a Holley Carb with manual choke. This engine delivers an enormous amount of low end torque.

Truck was restored in the early 90s, frame has no rust - and some rust is now visible on the cab. Truck has custom dual chrome stacks and add quite the sound. Vehicle is definitely and attention grabber. The bed is a wooden floor and just replaced the carpet inside the cab. The truck is lifted pretty high 3" body 6" suspension and sets on 33x12.5x15s. Truck has custom LED taillights. Lastly the truck has powertrax lock-right lockers in both axles. This thing will not let you down in a tight spot. I personally do not take this truck mudding, but have not got stuck yet in fields (wet/dry) or any other rougher terrain.

May consider Partial trade offers. I am mainly looking for a Honda Foreman ATV with EPS (Electronic Shift) with or with out trailer.

The Truck also has brand new Tires (Less than 100 Mi), new Clutch and TOB from Jegs, and large drop pitman arm.  External gauges added for water temp and RPM


Shipping, Title and Mileage:
Title was sent as Mileage inaccurate, however the gauge does work and shows in the 50k range.  Title is clean not rebuilt but shows mileage inaccurate.  Title is an Ohio title.  Shipping and title transfer will need to be arranged by buyer local pick up or shipped. Please keep in mind it is a lifted vehicle when discussing shipping options.

More pictures will be available by request.  This is not a show room vehicle, but would be very easy to get it to that point.

2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid

Thu, 02 May 2013

No Prius Killer
As much as we enthusiasts like to rail on the lowly Toyota Prius as the harbinger of death for all we hold dear, there's no denying the machine's absolute and interminable grip on the hybrid hatchback market in the United States. Toyota has so thoroughly sunk its teeth into the segment that you can clearly hear the automaker's incisors clacking against one another with the conclusion of each financial quarter. And there's little wonder why. Buyers can plop down less than $25,000 and have a runabout that can return up to an estimated 51 miles per gallon in the city, leaving every other entry on the market with precious little gristle to gnaw on.
Enter the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid. With its claimed 47 mpg combined, the funky little hatch from Europe already falls behind the 48 mpg city offered by the Prius, but that marginal sacrifice in fuel economy could be a small price to pay for buyers who want a credible alternative to the stalwart Toyota. Unfortunately, like the Fusion Hybrid, the C-Max Hybrid had trouble even approaching its Environmental Protection Agency estimates during our time with the car.

Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.

Highlights and standouts from the 2015 LA Auto Show

Thu, Nov 19 2015

This year's LA Auto Show has been packed with interesting debuts and fascinating industry trends. The Autoblog team is on the scene to examine all the new metal, and Senior Editor Greg Migliore has some show highlights for us in the video above. In particular, the new Fiat 124 Spider and Honda Civic Coupe stand out as important debuts. The Fiat is based on the excellent Mazda Miata, with a turbocharged 1.4-liter engine and revised styling. The Civic Coupe is a striking redesign of an extremely popular and important model for the company. And the restyled Ford Escape looks more like its bigger brother, the Explorer. There's this an much more in our video above. Watch it and let us know what you think – and look for more LA Auto Show coverage coming soon.
