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 |

J Mays' legacy
Fri, 15 Nov 2013
Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
2014 Ford F-150 gets CNG option
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Ford is toiling away, installing heavy-duty engine components into select 3.7-liter V6s to allow them to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) in addition to gasoline. That's nothing new, but now, Ford has announced that it will offer the 2014 F-150 with this engine configuration, bringing the Blue Oval's total number of CNG/LPG-friendly vehicles up to eight. The F-150 will be the only half-ton pickup on the market that can run on these gases.
Ford will charge $315 per vehicle to equip the optional engine, but the trucks won't be ready to run on the alternative fuels straight from the factory and must be upfitted with additional equipment. A Ford Qualified Vehicle Modifier will install a separate fuel system for the compressed gases at a cost of $7,500 to $9,500, depending on fuel tank size. With the right-size tank, the F-150 equipped with the CNG/LPG-prepped engine can go 750 miles on one tank of gas, according to Ford, averaging 23 miles per gallon.
The practice of offering flex-fuel vehicles is gaining momentum as businesses take advantage of cheap gas. CNG can be bought for $2.11/gallon on average (per gasoline equivalent), and sometimes for as little as $1.00 in some parts of the US, Ford states. "With the money saved using CNG, customers could start to see payback on their investment in as little as 24 to 36 months," says Jon Coleman, Ford's fleet sustainability and technology manager. The automaker expects to sell a total of 15,000 CNG/LPG-prepped vehicles in the 2014 model year.
