1975 FORD 1/2 TON 4X4 RANGER.

There are a lot of these old fords out there for sale, but the majority of them are beat, rusty, abused or all of the above. I've owned many and look for them all the time and rarely see them for sale this clean. It is especially to find a 4x4 in this solid. There are more clean 2wd's out there but the 4x4's were generally used hard as they were intended to be. The truck is mostly original, solid, and straigh. It runs great and has the V8 with automatic transmission. This was an old grandpa truck and still has the original hubcaps. This is a great ford to drive as is but a perfect candidate for an easy restoration.

I HAVE MANY MORE PICS AND A VIDEO OF THE TRUCK IN A LINK I CAN SEND YOU. EBAY HAS CHANGED IT'S POLICIES AND I CAN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUT THE LINK IN THE LISTING NOW.

MECHANICAL

The truck runs great. The motor is most likely the original engine. It has the 360 V8. It does not smoke at all. No major leaks but has the usual seepage as most this old do. No noticeable dripping leaks. Runs smooth and cool. No water in the oil or anything like that. Oil pressure drops when warm but is still in the normal operating range. I'm sure the motor has many miles left to go, but it isn't new. It has no knocks or ticks. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt to change all the fluids and do plugs/wires/cap/rotor and the other usual tuneup stuff. I don't know that it needs any of those things, but I don't know the last time they were done. Choke needs adjusted a bit but works. Starts up every time. Automatic transmission works fine. This ford has the full time 4x4. It works as it should. I know they are somewhat easy to convert to part time. I always liked them because they are similar to all wheel drive and you don't have to worry about swapping ends when it's slick. This has powersteering and brakes. No air. The ford drives good and has BRAND new tires. Less than 20 miles on them. Headlights, heater, wipers, turnsignals, etc. still work. This has a cd player and I never tried it but the lights work so it may work. Gearing is most likely 3:50 ratio judging by how it goes down the road. I've had probably 20 or more old fords like this and I'm sure that is probably the ratio or close to that. Speedometer works and all other gauges. Exhaust is newer. Only three hubcaps are included.
That's all that it came with.

BODY

The body is very straight and has no rust. No bondo. This pickup was originally green. It was professionally painted in 1977. There is no sign of filler at all and it's obvious that the paint job is almost as old as the pickup. The interior, jams, under hood, pretty much everything was repainted red. Interior was green and painted black at the time with vinyl paint. It's wearing through after 37 years. The inside of the box is not dented and looks to have been used lightly. Box, tailgage, cab, floors, cab mounts, hood, roof, firewall, fenders, inner fenders, doors, frame etc. etc. are in nice shape. Pictures in the link show the underside of the cab. Nothing that may look like rust, is rust. It is just dirt or undercoating peeling off. This truck is as dry as you'll find.

INTERIOR

The interior is in usable condition but has the usual wear of an unrestored pickup this old. The seat has been recovered at some point. Floormat, headliner, dash, and doorpanels are usable. Dash is uncut with exception of cd player being put in.

OVERALL

This truck is in good shape and I know they don't come along very often this solid and original. The f100's are really getting harder to find than highboys. I like highboys also, but they have lower gearing and ride rougher. I would cruise this truck as-is. It is also is a a great candidate for an original restoration.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."

2015 Ford Mustang GT road test ride-along

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

You've no doubt already pored over our first drive of the 2015 Ford Mustang, where author Jonathon Ramsey proclaimed that "this new car shames the old, redefines the model and gallops far ahead of anything else in the segment." And following Ramsey's first stint behind the wheel of Ford's new coupe, we sent him back out with another 'Stang to capture some of these same impressions over a backdrop of the car moving quickly along gorgeous California canyon roads.
But this also gave our author and editors time to read through the hundreds of comments left on that original Mustang review. You readers are indeed a vocal bunch, and one particular comment about how the automotive media is so willing to bash an outgoing car as soon as the new one arrives really caught our attention. In this video, Ramsey stands by his written text, saying the new Mustang is "massively better than the one it replaces," and in doing so, addresses your comments while providing more insight into just how good the Ford truly is.
We won't spoil the rest for you. Check out the feature video above, and as always, leave us your thoughts in the Comments section below.

Signature Edition Ford Shelby GT500 Super Snake to get limited production run

Mon, Dec 22 2014

The upcoming Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang keeps grabbing a horde of headlines thanks in no small part to the pony car's 5.2-liter V8 with a flat-plane crankshaft, magnetic dampers and other go-fast goodies. However, as the new contender enters the ring, Shelby American is saying goodbye to the old GT500 and the company's even more powerful Super Snake version with its new Signature Edition model. Limited to a total of 50 conversions on 2007-2014 coupe or convertible GT500s, the Shelby American Signature Edition packages some of buyers' most common choices into a single vehicle with a few extra touches, as well. The heart of it all is a 3.6-liter Kenne Bell supercharger to replace the V8's standard blower and take power up to a claimed 850 horsepower for the latest models. To keep things running at the proper temp, the mill gets an upgraded radiator, heat exchanger and aluminum cooling tanks, too. The rear brakes are also improved to slow this stallion down. In addition to the boosted power, buyers get some extra style. These special Super Snakes are available in all of the colors available on them from Ford, plus a range of shades for the stripe, and the wide body package can also be added as an additional option. The limited version wears 20-inch forged wheels from Weld that are 9.5-inches wide at the front and 10.5-inches at the rear and feature Signature Edition center caps. Inside, there's a commemorative badge with Shelby's signature on the airbag cover and Signature Edition floor mats. Finally, customers get a day training at the track to learn how to control this beast as part of the package. Orders for the Signature Edition are being accepted through January 31, 2015, and the modded model is priced at $44,995.00, which is in addition to the price of the stock GT500. Read below for Shelby American's full announcement of this limited Mustang.
