Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Truck is in very good condition- outside of cab and box professionally restored primed and sealed, fenders, doors and tailgate are not as nice. Truck originally from Montana, so frame and underbody are exceptional.Brakes and front end (including axle)have been brought back to excellent working condition. It steers well (manual steer). Engine changeover from 360 v8 to 302v8 has not been so smooth, as clutch kit does not appear to be well balanced, and resulting vibration is the likely cause for leaking rear main seal on 302. Engine mount changeover is my creation and seems to be solid, but clearance from axle to oil pan is close with the setup on the 302 I had. Reversing the sump would rectify this situation. (The grille is from 1967 model)."

To list work done on this truck since I have owned it:

Engine changeover to 302 V8 I had ( not a big fan of the original 360). Clutch kit does not seem perfectly balanced, and thus may have caused rear main seal leakage. Clearance from oil pan to front axle is close, but probably remedied by reversing sump. Alternately, you could return to 360 or larger big block engine. New dual exhaust system to back end of truck. Four barrel carb on 302 needs rebuilding as floats sometimes stick.

4 speed manual transmission is joined to a single speed transfer case (OEM) No leaks detected from either. From there, all universal joints have been replaced, including those on front axle, and seals have been replaced. I have noticed leakage of gear oil from rear axle since it has been parked, presumably the pinion seal, but it may be the back cover.

Steering gear is in excellent condition, any worn steering components have been replaced. The truck steers straight and tight.

Brakes are manual, not power, but they are in excellent shape. New brake shoes and wheel cylinders, new brake hose to front axle, new emergency brake cables, new master cylinder.

Body-wise, the outside of the cab and box have been professionally redone, then primed and sealed. The cab dash has not been reworked, but the area around the rocker panels has (see pictures). The inside of the box has not been worked on and is dented, but is very sound and not heavily rusted. Fenders, doors and hood are in reasonably good condition. Tailgate is not much- what I had on hand. (Doors have had new seals and full anti-rattle kits installed- they are quiet). I put in fender liners of heavy gauge plastic to protect areas in wheel wells- something Ford should have done. Inner fenders and core support are adequate working condition but have some rust. The grille is from a 1967 F100.

 The frame is quite nice (Montana truck) with no scaly rust.

Electrical for the most works fine, except horn and engine oil light, which seems to work in reverse (on when oil pressure is sensed). This truck should pass most state inspections as it is today.

Man turns Ford Fiesta into a one-car band

Mon, 18 Nov 2013

The one-man band is a rather ridiculous idea, drawing up images of one person attempting to manipulate several instruments, at once, in a vain attempt at creating music. It's usually represented by silly scenes like this. Interestingly, the concept isn't much more successful when the "man" in "one-man band" is replaced with "car," as we see in this video.
It seems that someone rigged up and edited (699 times, we might add) a Ford Fiesta, a bucket, 12 PVC pipes and the natural sounds that a car makes to come up with a song. Now, we don't recognize the tune, so we've no idea if this is a cover or an original piece. And while it's hardly Beethoven, we have to admire the amount of effort the "conductor" went to in his attempt to turn a subcompact car into a musical instrument(s). Take a look (or listen) below for the entire video.

Ford overlooks the Big Apple in the 2015 Mustang Convertible [w/video]

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

Ford has done it again. Like in April of 1964, there is once again an all-new Mustang Convertible sitting on the observation deck of New York City's Empire State Building. This has been in the making for a little while, with the first report that Ford would recreate the sky-high publicity stunt coming out a few weeks back.
The process of getting the Mustang up there wasn't exactly easy. A Troy, MI-based company chopped up the new droptop, a necessary evil to get the Mustang on the Empire State Building's only freight elevator that runs to the 86th floor observation deck. But it was slightly more involved than just taking the car apart. The company, DST, built a mockup of the ESB's freight elevators, and then practiced its cuts on a second pre-production Mustang Convertible (measure twice, cut once).
The result of all this work are the images you see above. Yes, sitting in the crisp, morning air of midtown Manhattan, over 1,000 feet up, is this brilliant, Triple Yellow Mustang. Take a look up top for our gallery of images from today's event. You can also scroll down for videos and images of the process leading up to the ESB debut.

Autoblog Minute: Ford Ranger, UK Mustang, Hyundai Hybrid

Fri, Aug 28 2015

Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over the Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of the Toyota Prius and a new Hyundai. Autoblog's senior editor Greg Migliore reports on the weekly recap edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of Prius and a new Hyundai. I'm Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute weekly recap. 2011 was the last time we saw Ford's midsize pickup in the US but according to a report from the Detroit News we could see production of the Ranger at the [00:00:30] Dearborn automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant as early as 2018. Ranger could compete with the Chevy Colorado and perhaps revive the compact and midsize pickup market for Ford, but the future of Ranger in the US depends a lot on Ford's ongoing negotiations with the UAW. About 2,000 orders for the 2015 Mustang were placed in the UK, tying up production of the pony car until July 2016. According to details in a press release from Ford UK, [00:01:00] it looks like Brits are a lot like their American cousins, opting for the 5.0 liter V8, with Race Red as the popular color of choice. Photos of the 2016 Toyota Prius leaked generating a lot of buzz over the styling. This fourth generation Prius will have some new competition as spy shots of a new Hyundai also surfaced this week. The car is said to be a hybrid and a bonafide "Prius fighter." Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday, [00:01:30] including the latest in FCA rumors for 2016. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
