This item is also for sale locally, so I am reserving the right to cancel auction at anytime.

Perfect for a total restore or drive as is. This is an extremely solid truck inside and out and it's nearly impossible to find one like it for the money. It is from Arizona and has only been in Michigan for a few months. It is the hard to find 4X4 with a strong running 360 V8 and a manual four-on-the floor transmission. It is a bit baked from the desert sun, but its body, frame, and mechanics are very, very sound.  I've only had this truck for about a month.  My intention was to either resell or redo and I'm trying the resell first.  I've put about 100 miles on it since I purchased it and it seems to run out very well.  The odometer has about 52000 miles on it, but I have no way to verify this.  Truck is all original except for the wheels.


Exterior:  Body and Frame amazingly solid.  No rot.  As seen in the pictures there are spots where the sun blasted the paint off and there's a bit of surface rust in these areas.  Frame is solid with no scaling.  Driver mirror is not the original and is missing the glass. There are bolt holes in both doors where the mirrors were changed from the factory mirrors and then changed back.
All the molding, trim, and emblems are still on the truck (ranger emblem is missing in the grill).  They're all in good condition.  The grill has a bend in it as can be seen in the pictures.

Interior is in good shape except dash panel and arm rest vinyl are brittle and cracking. Steering wheel wrap is destroyed. Seat is worn, but no rips. The horn trim is present, but is missing a plastic tab and falls off. I took the carpet out to show floor boards, but I still have it and it's in fair shape.  All the gauges work except fuel gauge.  Truck had AC, but the pump has been removed.  Everything is there except the pump.

Drivetrain:  Engine starts and runs great. Transmission's a little tough to shift, but nothing out of the ordinary for the vintage.  Could probably use a clutch and through out bearing however.  4X4 works fine.  Lockouts and transfer case are in good working order.  There is a bit of squeak coming from one of the front u-joints.  Has duel exhaust that is not original. Tires are mismatched and a bit cracked, but in fair condition treadwise.

The front windshield has a handful of stone chips, but otherwise all glass is original and in good shape.

Please feel free to request more details, pics, or an appointment to come view the truck first hand. 

Thanks for your time.

Ford to add more than 2,000 jobs in Kansas City

Thu, 02 May 2013

Continued high demand for the Ford F-150, along with the addition of the all-new Transit series of commercial vehicles, has led Ford to announce that it will add over 2,000 jobs at its Kansas City Assembly Plant. At the time of the announcement, the plant boasts 2,450 hourly employees working on two shifts. All told, Ford will invest $1.1 billion in the Kansas City plant to expand truck production and begin producing the Transit series.
According to the automaker, fullsize truck sales are up 19 percent through April of 2013, leading to an additional 900 workers and a third shift of production for the F-150. Production of the Transit series will begin in the fourth quarter of this year, requiring an additional 1,100 workers. In addition, Ford estimates that a total of 18,000 jobs will be created by suppliers to its Kansas City plant to support the additional vehicle production.

Ford exec downplays idea of aluminum-intensive cars

Thu, Jan 15 2015

Ford certainly made waves when it rolled out the all-new 2015 F-150 made primarily out of aluminum. But while trimming weight off its vehicles is a top priority for the Detroit automaker, we shouldn't expect the lightweight metal to be used as widely on passenger cars as it has been on its new pickup. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress on Wednesday, top Ford exec Joe Hinrichs said that using aluminum in passenger cars isn't as beneficial as it is in trucks – primarily because the weight savings isn't as dramatic, or as deeply needed. Though improved fuel economy is certainly one advantage of aluminum construction in a truck like the F-150, low prices at the pump have prompted Ford to highlight another advantage, and that's capability: With less weight on its own, a lighter-weight truck can carry and tow more than a heavier one, because it all comes down to combined weight ratings. Ford is expected to make the new F-Series Super Duty largely out of aluminum for the same reasons, and we wouldn't be surprised to see the next Expedition use the material as well. But while certain components in Ford passenger cars will be made of aluminum, we shouldn't expect entire chassis and bodywork assemblies to use the material as extensively as on the F-150, or on more upscale passenger cars from the likes of Audi or Jaguar. Dearborn is, however, investing in other lightweight materials. It has a joint venture with Dow Chemical to put carbon fiber into mass production, much as BMW has with its i3. The Blue Oval will use a combination of carbon and aluminum on its 2017 GT supercar, and it has stripped weight by removing amenities from the 2016 Mustang GT350R, but apparently neither is a method Ford can practically apply to its volume models.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.
