I'M TEARING UP DOING THIS! HARD TO BELIEVE!. I LOVE THIS TRUCK!. I PURCHASED IN JAN,90 SO I COULD HAUL PARTS FOR MY LINCOLN PARTS BUSINESS!. THIS WAS MY EVERYDAY DRIVER TILL ABOUT 09/07. I NOT ONLY LOVED IT, I TOOK CARE OF IT! I MAINTAINED IT! IF IT NEEDED ANYTHING, IT GOT IT! IT WAS ALWAYS GARAGED! AND WHEN THE 2ND ENGINE WENT OUT BECAUSE OF CRACKED HEADS. I FOUND #3 ENGINE WITH A LEGITIMATE 50 K ON IT. THE TRANSMISSION WAS ALL APART IN THE BED, SO HOW COULD THE ENGINE BE BAD? AFTER PRESSURE WASHING, I DROPED THE OIL PAN AND PUT IN OIL PUMP AND CLEANED AND PAINTED THE PAN.&THE REST OF THE ENG!. I PUT IN NEW PLUGS, WENT THROUGH THE DISTRIBUTOR AND PUT ON A NEW ELECTRONIC COMPUTER THING. WE TRANSFERRED THE WATER PUMP BECAUSE IT WAS NEW, NEW PLUGS, THERMOSTAT,FAN AND FAN CLUTCH, HOSES,BELTS ETC. THE ALUMINUM 4 ROW HEAVY DUTY RADIATOR WAS SERVICED AND REFILLED WITH ANTI FREEZE. THE TRUCK WENT 75 MILES AND OVERHEATED!!! I PARKED IT OUTSIDE AND BOUGHT A YR OLD FUSION!. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN IN MY BACK YARD SINCE FALL OF O7 AND BEING OUT HAS NOT MADE IT ANY BETTER IN CONDITION. THE CUSTOM PAINT I HAD PUT ON IN 1990 IS RESPECTIBLE , BUT SHOULD BE REDONE. YOU COULD TOUCH UP THE HOOD AND RT QUARTER (CLEARCOAT IS BAD) AND REDO THE STIPE AND SHE WOULD LOOK PRETTY GOOD. THE INTERIOR IS NICE AND IN GOOD SHAPE AND CARPET IS PERFECT!(SHOULD BE SHAMPOOED!) I HAVE ALL RECORDS SINCE 01/90!` THE TRUCK HAS ZERO RUST EXCEPT THE ROOF RAIN GUTTERS WHICH ARE BOTH RUSTY FOR SOME REASON! NEVER UNDERCOATED, IT IS SUPER TIGHT AND AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE WHEN IT'S RUNNING. SAVE YOUR KID AND MAKE IT A RESTORATION PROJECT AND KEEP HIM OR HER OFF DRUGS ETC! WORKED FOR MY KID! THE CHROME ON THE TRUCK IS INSANELY NICE!,BUMPERS,HANDLES,MIRRORS-BEAUTIFUL! GRILLE HAS A SMALL CRACK UNDER RT HEADLIGHT.(I HAVE A NOS FORD ALL CHROME GRILLE AVAILABLE). CARPETS ARE PERFECT! HAS OPTIONAL MATCHING FULL DOOR PANELS AND VENT WINDOWS. IF YOU HAVE A RUST BUCKET WITH A REBUILT 2.9 ENGINE, HERE IS YOUR VEHICLE. I WILL EVEN STORE IT FOR YOU HERE AT NO CHARGE, BUT YOU MUST PAY IN FULL WHEN THE SALE IS COMPLETED. I'M 74 AND HANDICAPPED AND UNABLE TO TAKE ON THIS PROJECT--OR I WOULD!!! MORE STUFF AND INFORMATION: THE DRIVE SHAFT GOT 3 NEW U-JTS,NEW TAILSHAFT SEALS AND TRANS SERVICED AT JUST OVER 400K MILES.IT ALSO GOT A NEW BOOSTER WITH MASTER,REBUILT P/S PUMP. THE ENGINE "LOOKS NEW" AND THE COMPARTMENT IS CLEAN , WITH NOTHING MISSING. THE BATTERY TRAY IS SOLID AND NOT RUSTED OUT! THE ALUMINUM 4 ROW RADIATOR SHOULD LAST YEARS. THE FRONT END IS GOOD AND KEPT UP AND ALWAYS ALLIGNED. I TOOKS PICTURES OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE DASH, BUT MY COMPUTER IS NOT ALLOWING ME TO FIND WHERE THEY ARE?? I ALSO HAVE MORE PHOTOS INCLUDING THE RAIN GUTTERS. I WILL MAKE SURE THE TRUCK HAS 4 TIRES HOLDING AIR FOR THE PICKUP. I HAD OLD SCHOOL WHITEWALLS ON 80'S LINCOLN WIRE WHEELS WORTH $800 IN MY BUSINESS. TODAY, IT'S ALL ABOUT 20 INCH RIMS AND BLACK TIRES, SO HAVE A BALL! JUST KEEP IT OUT OF THE WRECKING YARD!

Ford books $1.2B profit in second quarter on strength of trucks
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is rolling along nicely, with a positive second-quarter sales report and a $2.3 billion profit in North America. The Dearborn, Michigan-based manufacturer captured $1.2 billion globally from April to June, with a $177 million profit in Asia. Even in Europe, the land of doom and gloom for automakers not named Mazda, Ford saw some success as it lowered its expected full-year loss from $2 billion to $1.8 billion. The company lost $348 million in Europe during the second quarter, which, believe it or not, represents a $56-million improvement over 2012.
According to the report on CNBC, Ford enjoyed a three-percent increase in pre-market trading thanks to the news. The strong demand for the F-150 propelled growth in the US market, while Ford's 47-percent increase in Asian sales can be attributed to the new EcoSport crossover and Kuga (Ford Escape in the US) arriving in the somewhat fragile Chinese market.
Pre-tax profits for Ford are expected to be in the neighborhood of $8 billion by the end of the year, with sales the US, Europe, and China all looking up. The company also shifted $4.78 billion of asset-backed debt in the form of bonds, according to a report by Bloomberg. This move came amidst rumors of the Federal Reserve cutting back on its $85-billion-per-month bond purchases. Ford wasn't alone among automakers looking to sell off debt, though, as Mercedes-Benz and Nissan shifted around $1 billion each in bonds relating to auto loans.
2015 Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival
Thu, Aug 13 2015Considered the big kick off of the major festivities surrounding Monterey Car Week, this year's Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival certainly didn't disappoint. For those unable to make it to the California coast, our own Drew Phillips was on hand to snap some of the beautiful vehicles on display for this gorgeous gallery. Held annually at the Monterey Jet Center, the event is always a feast for the eyes by collecting planes, a gang of exotic supercars, and some the top cars crossing the auction block over the coming days, like a Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda convertible. The Ford GT both new and old was a major attendee at this year's party. Among them, the Petersen Museum brought along an original racecar and a GT40 MKIII to promote an upcoming exhibit. The classics were complimented by the latest version that has continued to keep tongues wagging. The GT wasn't the only classic with a modern update there. Singer used the posh event for the North American debut of its stunning restoration of the Porsche 911 Targa. Shelby American was also at the revival for the public unveiling of the 50th Anniversary Daytona Coupe. On the more modern front, Honda was in attendance with the future NSX and one of the McLaren F1 cars that the company's engine powers. For further proof of the ritzy folks that attend this soiree, Pagani and Koenigsegg both had stands to show off their extremely quick wares.
