1995 Ford Ranger Splash Turbocharged Race/show Truck on 2040-cars
Tooele, Utah, United States
|
I've had it for almost 11 years and it has all the bells and whistles. It's time to go our separate ways.
It's been re done from the ground up. The engine came out of 1988 Ford Thunderbird Turbocoupe with 120K miles, the cylinder head has been redone and has a BOPORT 1.9 cam with all new hardware. Intake manifold is a 40BOB piece and has been powdercoated along with the majority of the parts in the engine bay. It has a 4" core front mount intercooler with 3" plumbing all powdercoated. Running 85 lbs/hr injectors with full MEGASQUIRT engine management. Has a Marc Bean full stainless center mount header with external wastegate running a one off, like new Holset HX35/40 turbo with a one off Garret housing. It has a 4.0 Explorer heavy duty radiator with a 16" electric fan. I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of other things but the list keeps going. It has a 5.0 CANFIELD INDUSTRIES bellhousing adapter with a stage 2 5.0 clutch and pressure plate built by Exchange Auto parts in Salt Lake with a lightweight SPEC flywheel. Running an 88 Turbocoupe T5 transmission with full hydraulic slave and master. MGW short throw shifter with HURST shifter pistol grip. Rear axle is a fresh rebuilt 8.8 with limited slip and 4.56 gearing. Has Cal-Trac traction bars and XXR 18" wheels with almost new tires. I have a pair of M/T drag radials mounted up on steel wheels that I will include if paid full amount. The interior features full Autometer C2 instrumentation with wideband O2 sensor, pyrometer, boost gauge, oil pressure, oil temperature, coolant temperature, fuel presure and an analog oil pressure at the turbo. Has push button start and white face gauges. Also a one off center console piece with a TV screen molded in. Professionally done. On the backwall I have mounted the stereo and the Megasquirt control box with the relays. All connections were professionally soldered. Has 5% window tint and Dodge Neon SRT4 seats. Interior is in great shape. No tears. Carpet is spotless. The tailgate has been shaved and painted, along with one of the bedsides. The front end has all new paint and HID one piece headlights. Has a Xenon front air dam. I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of the smalls details, but over the time I've owned this truck I have dumped all of my paychecks into it. Has well over 15K invested and that's being considerate. The front end has new balljoints and crossdrilled rotors with ceramic brake pads. The rear axle has been overhauled less than 5K miles ago. THE BAD - no heater or windshield wipers. VERY MINOR RUST on cab corners. Speedometer is innacurate because of the 4.56 gearing and the T5 transmission. Has very small rust holes at cab corners, I originally bought this truck from Ohio and drove it back, when it was bone stock. It runs great and it requires special attention. This is not a daily driver and as much as it has been modified, I don't see it becoming one. Here's a video of the build. http://youtu.be/MCJKjKsKjtk Truck is located in Tooele, Utah. Please inspect the pictures and I welcome calls or text from seriously interested parties (daytime only please) @ 435-830-0310. No test drives, no tire kickers. I am requesting a $150 deposit immediately after the auction ends to cover eBay and PayPal's fees. If you arrive to see the truck and it's not what I said and you complete the process through eBay to cancel the deal, I'll gladly refund the deposit. If you just do not show, the deposit will be used to cover the fees charged. |

Ford pits The Stig against Gran Turismo 6 in Focus ST Goodwood run
Thu, 03 Jul 2014The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the world great automotive gatherings. So, it was the perfect event for Ford to give the refreshed 2015 Focus ST its world debut in front of a loving public. It even surprised us with a new diesel-powered version, as well.
The Blue Oval really put its focus on making the ST a better driver for this refresh. It left its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder alone to still pump out a respectable 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. The changes like a retuned front suspension, electric power steering and improved interior made the hot hatch an even better place to spend time behind the wheel.
To prove that the Focus ST is still as potent as ever, Ford set up a one-on-one race up the Goodwood Hill. But instead of putting the two cars side-by-side, former Stig from Top Gear UK, Ben Collins, piloted the real model up the course, and his rival drove the virtual version in Gran Turismo 6. The two hot hatches set off at the same time to see whether reality could beat the virtual world, and the finish was actually extremely close. Scroll down to watch the video and find out the winner of this battle at Goodwood.
Ford considering return to Le Mans with new EcoBoost LMP2
Mon, 21 Jul 2014If you want to see a Ford racing prototype, you need look no further than the United SportsCar Championship, where the Blue Oval fields two Daytona Prototypes powered by an EcoBoost-branded 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6. But according to the latest rumors, that may not be enough for Ford, which has as much brand to promote overseas as it does back home.
That could be why Racer magazine is reporting that Ford may be poised to return to Le Mans in the coming years. As we all know, Ford competed at Le Mans in the mid-through-late '60s, bringing home four consecutive overall wins with the legendary GT40. The new program would not, according to Racer, seek to relive those glory days, but would instead compete for class wins in the LMP2 category.
Currently, LMP2 regulations are somewhat split between the United SportsCar Championship in North America on the one hand and ACO-sanctioned series like the European Le Mans Series, Asian Le Mans Series and FIA World Endurance Championship on the other, but plans are underway for the regulations to be unified in time for the 2017 season. That could be when Ford is targeting its return, allowing it to compete on both sides of the Atlantic to maximize its exposure.
Shelby GT500 and Roush Stage 3 go head to head at the drag strip
Wed, 07 Aug 2013The Ford Mustang is a brilliantly affordable source of horsepower, with a base 300-plus-horsepower version available for well under $30,000. Jumping up to about $35,000 will get you a solid 420 horsepower from a high-revving V8, while those with some extra disposable income can get a pair of 600-plus-horsepower monsters. Both the Roush Stage 3 with its Phase 3 package and Ford's factory Shelby GT500 even crest the 650-horsepower mark, with 675 and 662 ponies, respectively.
Naturally, someone needed to find out which of these hi-po Mustangs was the quickest. And while this video is quite obviously a dealership commercial, at least there's some solid drag racing between two of the most powerful performance machines available for under $100,000.
With two NHRA drag racers at the wheel, the Stage 3 and GT500 go head to head for three races. Scroll down below to see the results in the full video.
