I have owned this truck now since 2007 and when I purchased it, it was in poor shape (however no rust.) I have spent thousands of dollars and countless hours restoring this rust free truck. I went with an original Ford color from 2005 Ford Zinc Yellow...from the pictures you can see the paint was done right! The body was pulled off the truck and POR-15 Rust Inhibitive coating was sprayed on undercarriage. All new Rancho RS9000 shocks were installed along with Fabritech ladder bars in the rear. The front DANA44 was rebuilt and a ARB Red differential cover. Most of the undercarriage parts that came off including front coil springs, brackets for shocks and mounts were all powder coated. Front coil spings were powder coated Red. All new Grade 8 hardware installed everywhere as well as stainless steel. New exhaust ran with MagnaFlow stainless mufflers. Brakes were all gone through and new HAWK SuperDuty brake pads installed up front with new RedPowder Coated calipers along with Earl stainless brake lines. Truck has all stainless steel brake lines throughout truck! The Ford 9" rear end has new bearings along with a limited slip differential which makes it run on highways and streets smooth. The Ford 400M motor was rebuilt and rebuilt Aussie closed chamber heads were installed to wake up the motor. Edelbrock cam was installed along with Edelbrock intake manifold and street avenger carburetor. Most parts off motor were also powder coated. A new Saginaw power steering pump was installed and really removed the old Ford power steering problems. A new chrome alternator was also installed along with a Optima RedTop battery. All new wiring and cables installed in motor compartment. Aluminum pulleys were also installed. Headlights were also installed with new halogen style bulbs and wiring kit to brighten headlights. New aluminum Ford grill was installed. All front end wheel wells and radiator housing was pulled off and powder coated black. New hood springs installed along with all new rubber moldings for doors, hood, and glass. Alpine CD player installed with USB hook up. The old Ford gauges were replaced with a custom bezel and new AutoMeter Z gauges. All LED Green lighting installed inside all gauges to match stock look with a brighter LED light. The drivetrain was also gone through and the NP435 manual transmission was rebuilt and a new CenterForce clutch installed with a Ranger 27% overdrive. The Ranger overdrive is awesome and allows for highway cruising at low RPM's so better fuel economy. At 75MPH the engine idles at 2100 RPM's which is much better for cruising. The NP205 transfer case was also rebuilt. The driveshafts were also renewed with new u-joints and sleeves along with new yokes. This truck trully has been renewed. There really is too much to list here. Interior also has new carpet with insulation. Also has Corbeau Moab seats that are comfortable. New seat beats (lap beats as that what was stock in 73.) Grant leather steering wheel and aluminum kit installed. Interior trim and headliner are all new. The air conditioning doesn't work and parts were removed during motor restoration. Heater works awesome and new heater core and hoses installed. There is an electric fan and four core radiator that keeps the motor running cool through all conditions. Tires and wheels are in awesome shape and compliment the truck. I hope I have captured most of the work put into this truck. This sale is an as is sale. I do have a Word document list of all work done and when to the truck along with a lot of part numbers. |

2015 Ford Focus gets more Aston-y [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014With more and more members of the Ford brand adopting a new familial face, the Focus has been left looking like an odd man out. At the Geneva Auto Show, though, it properly rejoined the family, adopting the now familiar Aston Martin-ish grille that's proliferated throughout the range.
Overall, we're liking the refreshed Focus' look. Aside from the new grille, the headlights have been restyled and now look like elongated versions of the lamps on the Focus ST. Functionally, those headlamps are bi-xenon units, complete with an adaptive front lighting system. Out back, the rear retains the same overall look, which has been smoothed out for 2015.
In the cabin, the second-generation of Ford's much-maligned Sync system makes its debut. Sync 2, as it's called, is supposedly more intuitive than the first-gen system. Ford is promising "one-shot" navigation functions for the system. Saying "I'm hungry," should bring up a list of nearby restaurants. Of course, we'll be reserving final judgment until we can test the new system in person.
Bill Ford op-ed argues we can't just build and sell more of the same cars
Thu, 10 Jul 2014It's hardly a secret that the auto industry is undergoing an enormous, tectonic shift in the way it thinks, builds cars and does business. Between alternative forms of energy, a renewed focus on low curb weights and aerodynamic bodies, the advent of driverless and autonomous cars and the need to reduce the our impact on the environment, it's very likely that the car that's built 10 years down the line will be scarcely recognizable when parked next to the car from 10 years ago.
Few people are as able to explain the industry's many upcoming changes and challenges as clearly as William Clay Ford, Jr., better known as Bill Ford. The 57-year-old currently sits as the executive chairman of the company his great-grandfather, Henry Ford, founded over 110 years ago.
In an op-ed piece in The Wall Street Journal (subscription required), Ford explains that the role of automakers is, necessarily, going to change to suit the needs of the future world. That means changing the view of not just the automobile, but the automaker. As Ford explains it, automakers will "move from being just car and truck manufacturers to become personal-mobility companies."
Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales
Wed, 10 Jul 2013Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.
