1967 Ford F100 Ranger Camper Special - Limited Edition - Classic on 2040-cars
Summerville, South Carolina, United States
|
My dad purchased this truck in 1967 and then passed it on to me. The truck has been only in our family and has just over 108,000 original miles on it. Since 1995, it has had the inside dash, seats and carpet professionally redone. The carpet is now showing some fading. Firestone in Bluffton, SC completely redid the break system within the last year. The C-6 transmission was rebuilt approximately 6 months ago but the roped seal is still slightly leaking. The engine has had little work done on it and the main thing it could use is exhaust manifold gaskets. Also, at this time the oil seal gasket needs changing and has a minor leak due to this. All 4 tires, plus the spare, were purchased from Sears and have less than 5,000 miles on them. The exhaust were re-installed but could be quieter with the manifold gaskets installed. This is a very unique truck and was a limited edition in it's time. With accomodation of a 30 gallon original tank, a 15 gallon reserve tank behind the seat, wide mirrors and an 8 foot bedding make this the Camper Special of it's time. I have since taken off the 30 gallon tank due to gas prices and am using the 15 gallon tank, behind the seat. The paint is in fair condition and the bed has scratches due to yard work and hauling mulch. It was repainted in 1995 and scratches have been made since then. If you have additional questions, please e-mail me at joe.arwood@gmail.com. Serious inquiries only, please. Do not contact me by text, I will accept e-mail and phone calls between 5 - 9:00 pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. The truck can be seen in Summerville, SC. Please contact Joe at 843-227-8507 for additional information. Again, only serious inquiries, please. Buyer is responsible for transporting vehicle after purchase and arrangements must be made to have it moved within 5 days after end of auction. Payment must be made in full and verified within 48 hours of end of auction. |

Long winter means most automakers won't curb summer shutdown
Sun, 18 May 2014A lot more happened during this latest brutal winter than days of snow and Netflix binges. Automotive sales took a battering. After all, going out car shopping when it's eleventy-billion degrees below zero isn't a good time.
Because of this Old Man Winter-induced sales slump, inventories are abnormally high as we head into the summer car buying season. That's led some analysts to predict that automakers will be more inclined to idle factories this summer, in a bid to trim some of the built-up inventory. Traditionally, American manufacturers offer up a two-week break in the middle of summer, although the burgeoning sales of the past few years have seen this practice become less popular.
"We're likely not going to see an acceleration this year," Jeff Schuster, a senior vice president at LMC Automotive, told The Detroit News. "We'll see production increases in 'pockets' but I don't know if it will be as widespread as in recent years."
Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."
Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.
