     Good old "Blue Suede Shoes" needs help my lousy back won't let me do, even though it's not a serious problem.  Water pump spews water after starting, but leaks very little once driving.  Needs new water pump installed, not hard on a 6 cylinder like this.  Also, starter bendix is going out, will eventually need starter.  It turns then goes "wing" a couple times sometimes, then starts.  Not the flywheel, always engages that, so has to be the starter bendix gear.  Otherwise no real problems, I still drive it locally, but wouldn't take it out on the highway anymore until the pump is replaced.  Once that's done, doesn't overheat, good cooling system.  Leaks some oil (probably the usual rear main seal), I park it on dirt, loses 1/2 quart between changes, max.   Lights, horn, all that works, has good tires, not el-cheapos, 1/3 tread gone, disc brakes have at least 50% pads left.  Overdrive transmission is cool, acts like a regular 3 speed manual, then big RPM drop for the freeway in overdrive. Call her a fixer upper I guess, I just can't do the work anymore, or use her for parts, whatever you want.
    Story is worth telling, this van worked in San Diego for decades hauling fishermen into Mexico (has ball hitch).  The owner ALWAYS took it to Ford, so it was extremely well maintained, Motorcraft battery, all genuine parts Ford wherever I looked.  It was his livelihood, so he had them fix whatever the service writer told him it needed.  I got it 10K miles ago, replaced the I-beam bushings, cap rotor, plugs and wires, that's all it needed, it's been my motorcycle hauler for 6 years now.  Radio needs new antenna, AC doesn't work, I never tried to have it charged.  Left side rear window not factory, installed for passengers' view it appears.
    Van is in Tombstone Arizona, one hour southeast of Tucson, 50 miles west of New Mexico border, 35 miles north of Mexican border.  Come get it, sorry, no delivery available.

Bill Ford wins National Pond Hockey Championship with employees

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Who says executives aren't people? This past weekend, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company, and a group of employees trekked up to Eagle River, WI for a few games of pond hockey. Team Ford took part in the 2014 Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship, capturing its fifth title in the 50+ Tier 1 Division.
"It feels great to win," Ford, who plays on the team alongside other Ford employees, told the USA Hockey website. "It was fun to play [River Valley Pioneers] because they're great guys and we play them every year. We finally beat them, which we were due. It was a very clean game, a tough game."
The FoMoCo team managed to score seven goals to River Valley's two, and went undefeated in all five of its games during the tourney. Take a look below for the official press release on Team Ford's win.

Ford could use Raptor name on Ranger in Australia

Sun, Jun 14 2015

Ford might be flying the Raptor name into the market Down Under, but rather than on a high-performance F-150, the aggressive moniker could be used for a mean Ranger. The Australia-based site Car Advice recently spotted the Blue Oval testing a modified Ranger over some off-road terrain. The pickup was equipped with a snorkel over the roof for wading into deep water, a brush bar to protect the front, a higher ride height, and fender flares. The regular version of the truck launches Down Under later this year, including the somewhat rugged Wildtrak trim level (pictured above). So where does the Raptor name fit into this? Ford filed a trademark in Australia on June 5 for the Ranger Raptor. There's no guarantee for that as the truck's moniker, though. As of May 28, the Blue Oval also owns the right to the Ranger FX4 title. Although, don't start saving yet. With the Ranger remaining unavailable outside of the US for the latest generation, there's no chance of a Ranger Raptor coming here. Hopefully, Aussie off-roaders get plenty of enjoyment out of the truck, if it sees production. Related Video:
