7.3 Diesel - Custom Limited With $18k In Upgrades! on 2040-cars
Amarillo, Texas, United States
|
This is just an awesome Excursion. I looked everywhere for the right 7.3 and finally found it. I bought it locally from a friend who owns a dealership/body shop. It has been a blast to own and drive daily, but my business is expanding and I need a different vehicle to hit the road. If you are looking for an adventure-ready 7.3 where all the big expensive stuff has already been done for you, this is it!
The venerable and much-sought-after 7.3 is stock and strong. It runs clean with no blowback or other issues...this has been confirmed by 3 diesel mechanics (one of whom is the Ford diesel guru in this area). Just breaking in at 167k and has many, many more miles to go. It has never been modded...though a 4-inch exhaust, cold-air intake, and tune would make this thing scream...or get great mileage...your call. The body is beautiful. Straight and stable with no wrecks or dings. It has none of the rust issues that plague many other Ex's. I cannot tell you how many of them I looked at that were buyer-worthy except that they were rusting out. This is the least-rusty Ex that I have ever seen. Check out the pics of the underbody. I had a Yakima rack on it and would highly recommend one over the stock setup as it inherently rubs the top like sandpaper...but I've included the stock rack in the back of the truck anyway. This Excursion is purpose-built to carry you and your family through just about anything. It is a functional beast with over $18,000 invested the following upgrades:
I have 100% eBay feedback for a reason. I treat buyers as I would want to be treated. One of the most frustrating things when I was Excursion shopping was driving forever to look at a "like-new" truck that turned out to be anything but. Though this Excursion is in amazing condition compared to most others out there, it does have some inevitable signs of being 13-years old. In full disclosure, I have taken pictures of all superficial wear...I prefer for you to be completely informed and wish to prevent any unpleasant surprises. If you are interested in this truck, please feel free to contact me for those and other additional photos. In addition, these are the only noteworthy issues that I intended to fix them but never got around to it:
If you're looking for a beast of a 7.3 Excursion that is still road-worthy, I don't believe you will find many as nice as this. Or if you're looking for an amazing zombie-apocalypse base camp, I don't believe you will find many as worthy as this. A lot of time, energy, and money has gone into it. If you're looking at this ad, you probably already know how rare and special this one is. My goal is for the buyer to take ownership and be pleasantly surprised by its condition based on my information. Please feel free to contact me for anything other than lowball offers. God bless and good luck bidding! Todd Oh yeah, I reserve the right to end this auction early in the case of a local sale. |

Car and Driver shows off awesome 1960s ads
Fri, Sep 11 2015Someone must have recently rediscovered the keys to the archives at Car and Driver, and the access has been put to good use. Following last month's fantastic look at automotive ads from the '50s, there's now a new gallery running from March 1960 through December 1969. This collection provides a great overview of a decade full of iconic cars. If you're a fan of Carroll Shelby, particularly his Mustangs, then there's a lot to love among this group. One ad from July 1965 aimed to sell the GT350, but with an ocean of text and a tiny picture, it probably could've used a once-over by Don Draper's team. By December '65, the copywriters ironed out the problems with a spot proclaiming boldly "Shelby GT350 is 'Son of Cobra.'" The company offered some great accessories, too. For those into European motoring, there's a humorous attempt to sell the Alfa Romeo Giulia as both a racecar and family hauler. Toyota also boasts about the winning record for the 2000GT. Among the best text comes from BMW for lines like: "What's BMW got? The most advanced high-performance engine in any production car, for a cruising speed of 100 mph." Of course, Volkswagen's famous "Lemon" ad for the Beetle also gets its due here. Separately, each of these ads is fascinating, but taken together they tell the story of a great decade of motoring. Go give them all a read at Car and Driver.

This 1969 Ford F-100 has a Cadillac CTS-V engine lurking underhood
Fri, Jan 30 2015Something always feels just a little taboo when someone builds a custom and then slots in a powertrain from a rival automaker. That's exactly the case with this modded 1969 Ford F-100 boasting a highly tuned LSA supercharged V8 like from the second-gen Cadillac CTS-V. However, with a claimed 800 horsepower on tap thanks in part to running an estimated 20 pounds of boost, it's easy to get over any bad feelings. Built by Tommy Pike Customs in South Carolina, the truck tries to keep the exterior looking somewhat stock. Although, the jade green and satin gold paint, Quaker State logo, lowered suspension and black wheels immediately suggest something is up. Once the F-100 starts up with its menacing growl, absolutely any doubts of this beast being unaltered are immediately gone. Not so obvious are some tweaks to actually help put all that power down, including disc brakes and independent suspension setups at the front and rear. The video gives some glimpses at a few of Pike's other creations, but the real star here is definitely his mean, green Ford.
Meet Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller, Iowa's latest hatchet-wielding criminal
Fri, Jul 11 2014Well, we've found the long-lost cousin of yesterday's Bentley-tattooed criminal from Florida. This is Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller. No, seriously. While his name seems just like the sort of thing we'd expect the Sunshine State to produce, he actually hails from Iowa. Despite coming from the Hawkeye State, Miller was arrested for a decidedly Floridian offense – getting in a bar fight and then returning with a hatchet. The only way this story could be more Florida is if meth, a manatee or bath salts were involved. The fight, which was at the Cheap Seats Sports Bar, started off typically enough, with a verbal argument in the parking lot (please, please let his nemesis be named "Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Smith"). This, naturally, attracted passing police officers. Things were broken up and some friends took Miller to his home, which was apparently just behind the bar. That's when he returned with the hatchet tucked under his shirt. Miller promptly proceeded to take out the implement of destruction in the bar's bathroom and... forget about it entirely. Fortunately, the police hadn't left the area yet. Not surprisingly, Miller was arrested for a parole violation, as well as public intoxication and going armed with intent. Still, cool name, bro.
