Here is an awesome built 1973 F100 4x4 short bed
The truck was completely rebuilt about 9 yrs ago and still shows incredibly well
This truck was given a very large suspension lift in the front end and the work was very well done, it drives exceptionally well much better than your stock ford suspension and rides and drives more like a newer truck.
The engine is a 390 and it runs very well I was told the engine was rebuilt when the truck was restored. It has a cam and headers so it has a little extra juice over stock.
The transmission is a C6 with a B&M shifter, the shifts are very smooth you can also slap the gears if you want
The interior was updated and still looks really good the seat and headliner match and are a durable broadcloth, the carpet is like new and the dash and the rest of the interior was painted to match the them of the truck and still looks good. There is a little fading of the paint that was used on the interior door panels but they are still in great shape.
All guges work except the original water temp gauge but there is a new temp gauge that works great. There is also aftermarket oil pressure gauges and tachometer that work well. The other original guages work as they should.
The body on this truck is in great shape there is a small dent on the drivers door that did not even chip the paint and a few spot where the paint has begun to chip off, the paint on the truck overall i would rate a 7 which is still very good for a daily driver (which this truck is) however if you wanted a show truck ready body then a little bit of body work and paint on this one and you are on your way.
The bed-liner in the back looks like new
The wheels are like new and un-scuffed
The tires have less than 1500 miles on them!!! they are 35 x 12.50 and look great on the truck
This is an awesome example of the f100 4x4 shortbed and they are incredibly hard to find as i am sure you know, this truck is ready to be driven and is great fun to drive
The reserve on this truck is very low so bid with confidence.
Truck was recently moved from Wyoming so it has a clear Wyoming title but is currently located here in Grand Junction

Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Bloomberg TV reporter Matt Miller is the proud new owner of a pretty killer truck. How do we know? The reporter headed to Dearborn, MI to Ford's assembly plant, with a film crew in tow, to see exactly how his new F-150 SVT Raptor and its mother-loving 6.2-liter V8 engine, was screwed together.
The resulting video does an excellent job of summing up how an assemblage of parts and pieces is turned into a triple-black Raptor, thanks to the work of some 1,000 employees and about 20 hours of real time. Click through below to see how the truck is born, with a surprise cameo playing the part of delivery driver at the end.
2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]
Sat, 28 Jun 2014When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."
Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.
