Citrus Heights, California, United States
1974 CALIFORNIA FORD F350 RANGER XLT 1 TON SUPER CAMPER SPECIAL
NO RESERVE AUCTION
This pickup truck was built and sold new in San Jose California in 1974. Stayed with the original owners for the first 59,000 miles just outside of San Jose in Hollister California, they used it for pulling the horse trailer to shows and camping. In early 2010 I bought the truck from the original owners and removed the very large 70s vintage wood framed camper that was still in the bed and brought the truck to Sacramento California and it has been my daily driver until about three months ago. It comes with the original owners manual, two original Ford sales brochures, frame mount camper hold down bars, original radiator top and bottom tanks with both side straps and radiator core dimensions, original Ford full length floor mat that has always covered the carpet (I will figure out how to add pictures of all of this but I seem to be maxed out at 24 pictures at this time) and all the receipts for the last 30,000 miles that I have had the pleasure of driving this great old machine around town.
It is in original condition other than the parts I have changed to keep her going smoothly. I have reinstalled the original super camper tires and wheels that came with the truck, they are in good usable condition with heavy tread. Some checking of the side walls on the front tires only, the back tires look great. The parts replaced over the last three years are: New starter solenoid, relay switch, radiator, brake booster, Holley 600 carb., fan belts, heater and cooling hoses, thermostat, water pump, idler pulley (had pulley rebuilt as it is unavailable new), distributor cap - rotor - wires, air filter, pcv valve, coil, ignition module, fuel pump, fuel lines, fuel gauge sending unit, heater core, transmission resealed and tested, diff oil and seals, front and rear brakes with new rotors in front turned drums in back, front and back wheel bearings, motor oil and filters.

The dash pad and door panels are very good with no cracks. The cigarette lighter and ash tray look new never used, both the original owners nor I smoke. The radio has been used so little the knobs are still snug and smooth. The body
is in great shape with some minor dents, dings and scratches, the bed is solid
with minor surface rust where the original camper sat in the bed. The wind shield has some rock chips. The paint has some scratches and is fading after some years of California sunshine and the seat has a tear on the drivers side. The air conditioner is complete and original but the clutch squeals and probably needs a new compressor. I have the wire unplugged at the compressor so it can not be powered up by accident. Starts and runs strong. Stone cold the big 460 needs two pumps on the peddle and is running, warm just hit the starter and shes always ready to go.
The truck has the following:
-Factory High Performance 460 V8 / C6 trany / 3.73 Dana 70 Lim. Slip diff. -Correct replacement Holley 600 Carburetor -Factory Edelbrock aluminum high rise intake manifold -Sliding rear window - Power Steering - Power disc brakes -9.5 front and 12.0 rear x16.5 Black Sidewall Tires - Spare Tire & Wheel compartment - Air Conditioner - AM Radio - Western style trailer mirrors - Tinted Glass - Auxiliary Engine oil and Transmission Super Cooling package - Dual Fuel Tanks - Stabilizer Bars front and rear - Painted Pull out Rear Step Bumper - Ranger XLT Package -Original California exhaust emission information window sticker -Original Engine Build and information stickers on both valve covers
This is a 40 year old truck that has always been owned and driven by adults. It is in very solid original condition other than the new fangled aluminum radiator.
On May-31-14 at 16:54:33 PDT, seller added the following information: Finally had a chance to add the picture of the owners manual, two original Ford sales brochures, three parts catalogs for older Ford trucks and all of the receipts for the last three years (actually found some work I had forgotten about). Please see the last picture for the paperwork that will be included along with the original radiator parts and the camper hold down bars. |

Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
Ford to rebrand SVT as 999?
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Ford operates a number of performance divisions around the world. There's SVT in the US, Team RS in Europe and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) in Australia. But the Blue Oval has been steadily integrating its performance operations into one unit, and here we might have our first indication of what it will be called.
A reader at Jalopnik sent in a survey in which respondents were asked to gauge the name for a new performance brand from a "major automotive manufacturer," and while the identity of that automaker was not disclosed, according to the survey, the automaker is considering the name 999 for its new go-fast unit.
As our compatriots point out, the 999 was Ford's first racecar, a rudimentary chassis with a 19-liter inline-four campaigned by Henry Ford around the turn of the 20th century. (Ford also used the number to designate a Fusion fuel-cell racer a few years back.) That could prove the tie-in Dearborn is looking for in rebranding its performance operations worldwide, replacing the letters SVT, RS and FPV globally under one name.
Editors' Picks February 2021 | Ford F-150, Genesis GV80, Mazda CX-30 and more
Wed, Mar 10 2021If we’ve driven and reviewed it, thereÂ’s an Autoblog Rating for it. ItÂ’s been over two years since we launched a new rating system to help you evaluate cars at a glance. We tweaked and improved it along the way and quickly arrived at a consistent process for giving each and every car on sale today a fair score. Cars that are exemplary or stand out in their respective segments get EditorsÂ’ Pick status. Those are the ones weÂ’d recommend to our friends, family and anybody whoÂ’s curious and asks the question. Every car we rate gets a score from 1 to 10, making it easy for you to tell if itÂ’s a car worth pursuing and possibly purchasing. YouÂ’ll find the scores of previously-rated cars attached toward the top of our written reviews. For example, the Bronco SportÂ’s rating can be found here. The Acura TLXÂ’s rating is in this post, and the Nissan RogueÂ’s rating is right here. There are hundreds of examples to be found. The above examples make up the most natural ways to find the Autoblog rating when researching for your next car, but starting today, weÂ’re going to begin calling out each new set of Editors' Picks per month in their own breakout stories. This will put the newest and most recently refreshed cars on sale on a pedestal for you to see which ones are worth your while. WeÂ’ll typically rate anywhere between 5-10 new cars per month, so you can count on just a select few from those to make this list. Expect to see this recurring ratings post each month going forward, and read on for FebruaryÂ’s EditorsÂ’ Picks.  2021 Genesis GV80 2021 Genesis GV80 View 18 Photos Quick take: The stylish GV80 offers useful safety features, compelling design and sporty dynamics to push it near the top of the segment. Genesis takes risks with this aggressive crossover, and the result is a luxurious vehicle that is rewarding to drive. Score: 8.5 What it competes with: Lincoln Aviator, Volvo XC90, BMW X5, Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class, Acura MDX, Lexus RX Pros: Beautiful design, good road manners, awesome value Cons: Small third row and cargo space, less comfortable standard suspension From the editors: Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore — “The GV80 is a hugely important vehicle for Genesis. It makes a style statement, has an elegant interior and is a compelling all-round execution. It looks like a Bentley, and I give Genesis props for taking some risks with the GV80 and largely pulling it all off.
