Port Ludlow, Washington, United States
1978 Ford F-150 Ranger
Not sure of actual mileage Engine is a 460 beast with Edelbrock intake and carb (1405 I think) with spacer. Put those on recently. Newly installed refurbished distributor. New cap, rotor, plugs, and wires. 4x4 with 4 low, manual transmission; 4 speed with a granny gear Lifted, short bed, NO RUST! (Okay, well a bit of surface rust in the bed:) Front bumper ready for a winch. 38" tires with 4.88 lockers with Warn locking hubs Sound system hits pretty hard and I have some other wheels I can throw in as well as some other big tires (not pictured). This thing is a monster. Interior: no carpet, crack in the dash, newish seat. Cracked windshield. Engine: strong, sounds good. I've had a bit of trouble with oil seeping up from the dip stick tube. Why they made those simple press in tubes, I'm not sure, but I will be sealing that up. Electrical is fine. The clearance lights don't work, however. I was going to replace them, but haven't gotten around to it. About 50 bucks. 4 wheel drive works great but I've spotted a bit of oil on the front u-joint and suspect there may be a slight leak in the transfer case. Hasn't given me any problems. Small leak and the transfer case is easy enough to access to refill. Speedometer jumps sometimes. I suspect the spedo drive will need to be replaced. Not sure how accurate it is anyhow, because of the larger tires. Pick up If shipping is desired buyer is responsible for making shipping arrangements and all costs involving shipping |

Monsoon rains disrupt production for Ford, BMW in India
Wed, Dec 2 2015Even modern production techniques can be stymied by Mother Nature. This was demonstrated most recently in India, as torrential, monsoon rains caused a deluge that forced multiple automakers to suspend production. Ford, Renault, and BMW all halted work at their Indian facilities around the southern city of Chennai, also known as Madras. The annual rains disrupted public transport around the city, preventing employees from making the trek into city's factories. According to Automotive News, Chennai saw 48 inches of precipitation last month alone, which is more than Seattle, WA saw in all of 2014. While Ford and BMW closed things down for all of December 1, Renault just cancelled a pair of shifts at its Chennai factory. This is the second time in the past month that automakers in southeast India have been forced to stop production due to severe flooding, and things aren't likely to improve. According to The Weather Channel, forecasts call for thunderstorms over five of the next seven days, while the chance of rain won't fall below 80 percent until December 8. Ford, Renault, and BMW are far from the only automakers that could stand to be impacted by the rains. The city has been nicknamed "The Detroit of India" for its extreme automotive presence. Daimler, Hindustan, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, and Nissan all own factories in the region.

William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88
Sun, 09 Mar 2014William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."
