I am the 2nd. owner, I flew to OK. from FL. over 25 yrs. ago and drove it back to Fl., it had aprox. 60K on it, it now has 90K orig. miles. I sanded the orig. Ford paint off of it MYSELF, it had never been repainted, I have a book of pic's to show all the work I've done on it. I also have a log book with all part #'s and where I bought the parts. I put in all new glass, still all in perfect shape, I painted it over 20 yrs. ago, it's not a SHOW paint job, it is showing it's age, but a VERY good driver, I still clean it up and take it to local car shows, it draws a lot of lookers, they all ask if I made it a 4X4, it is the 1st. yr. for a FACTORY 4X4, there is a very few Ford 4X4's before 1959, but they are NOT Factory built. The truck sit for over 5 yrs. in my garage, while I was busy with the 53 COE in the pic's, I pulled it out and went thru all the brakes, wheel cyl's, master cyl., clutch master cyl., the clutch slave cyl., all new tires, oil change, this was all done about 1 yr. ago and I've been driving it weekly, the A/C just quit a few weeks ago, it is an aftermarket under dash unit, I put in all new hoses, new dryer & expansion valve, it's cooling fine, no overheating problem with the A/C running, even at idle in heavy traffic, the truck has NO history of over heating, even towing with it. I used it as an everyday driver for many yrs. and in my business towing boats, I had my own boats sales & service, I've towed around 6-7K lbs many times, it will pull in 4th gear as low as 15 MPH when towing. I did change out the pts. for an elec. setup, no more pts. to adjust. The truck runs GREAT, shifts fine, the 4 wheel drive works fine, it has Warn hubs on it. There is few things that the truck needs, it's NOT perfect, the front springs have sagged a little, there is a pic. of the bump stop close to the springs, driving on paved roads it's OK, but hard bumps it will bottom out on the stops, I have NEVER run the truck OFFROAD, it has never been in the mud or sand, to much work in it for that, and I'm past that now, I'm over 60 yrs. old, LOL If you want to make it a SHOW truck, then you will want to repaint it. I would drive it anywhere, in the pic's, you will see it at an idle, 40psi oil pressure. In the past I have driven it on a 2K mile trip, no problems at all. It is not fast, it has all the orig. running gear under it, I drive it around 55-60 mph, it does fine. I really think you will not find a better orig. Ford 4X4 anywhere, it does not have power steering or power brakes, when towing you'll wish it had disc brakes, I've thought about putting disc on it many times, but never did, when I 1st. bought it, I was planning a street rod, big 460, later model running gear-etc., but after driving it to Fl. from Ok., it was just to darn GOOD a truck to chop it up, I would like to see it stay orig. I want a buyer to be happy with it, I really think you should make to trip to Fl. to see it, I live north west of Tampa, that would be the closest to fly into if you wanted to see it or drive it home. I would drive it to the airport so you could see it, I would even drive it to it's new home if you pay my airfare back to Fl. I can also help arrange overseas shipping if needed, I can deliver to Fl. ports for shipping. A $500.00 dep. with Pay-Pal with in 48 hrs. will be OK, CASH or wire transfer, any type of check, money order-etc., I will wait 30 DAYS for it to clear before releasing the truck, I do have a clear title in my name. The truck is also listed local, so if it sells local then I will take down this posting. If you buy it and pay the dep. thru Pay-Pal and you don't want it after seeing it, then I will refund your dep. I do have many pic's, you can e-mail me for more if you want, my ph. # 727 869 7847

2014 Ford F-150 gets CNG option
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Ford is toiling away, installing heavy-duty engine components into select 3.7-liter V6s to allow them to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) in addition to gasoline. That's nothing new, but now, Ford has announced that it will offer the 2014 F-150 with this engine configuration, bringing the Blue Oval's total number of CNG/LPG-friendly vehicles up to eight. The F-150 will be the only half-ton pickup on the market that can run on these gases.
Ford will charge $315 per vehicle to equip the optional engine, but the trucks won't be ready to run on the alternative fuels straight from the factory and must be upfitted with additional equipment. A Ford Qualified Vehicle Modifier will install a separate fuel system for the compressed gases at a cost of $7,500 to $9,500, depending on fuel tank size. With the right-size tank, the F-150 equipped with the CNG/LPG-prepped engine can go 750 miles on one tank of gas, according to Ford, averaging 23 miles per gallon.
The practice of offering flex-fuel vehicles is gaining momentum as businesses take advantage of cheap gas. CNG can be bought for $2.11/gallon on average (per gasoline equivalent), and sometimes for as little as $1.00 in some parts of the US, Ford states. "With the money saved using CNG, customers could start to see payback on their investment in as little as 24 to 36 months," says Jon Coleman, Ford's fleet sustainability and technology manager. The automaker expects to sell a total of 15,000 CNG/LPG-prepped vehicles in the 2014 model year.
Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a lean, mean, Z/28-fighting machine [w/video]
Mon, 17 Nov 2014If there's one thing you can count on, it's that the renewed rivalry between the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro will never, ever cease. For every version of Ford's pony car, there's an equally potent Chevrolet. And so with the debut of the Camaro Z/28 earlier this year, Ford has responded with a track-focused 'Stang of its own, resurrecting the Shelby GT350 name.
It looks to be a fine piece of work, this Mustang, with power coming from a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V8 that will produce "more than 500 horsepower" and "above 400" pound-feet of torque. That grunt runs to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission, and a Torsen limited-slip differential keeps everything in line.
But that's hardly the most impressive piece of the GT350 puzzle. Ford has increased the Mustang GT's chassis stiffness for duty here in the Shelby, and the coupe employs MagneRide damping which automatically adjusts based on road conditions and driver inputs. It's a first both for the Blue Oval and for the segment. And speaking of firsts, the GT350 uses a flat-plane crankshaft - something Ford has never included in a production V8 before.
Ford confirms 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine for 2014 Fusion
Thu, 11 Apr 2013Earlier this week, reports were swirling 'round the internet about the 2014 Ford Fusion getting a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. That was... half correct. Ford today confirmed that the 2014 Fusion is, in fact, getting a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost mill, but it has four cylinders, not three.
The new 1.5-liter engine will be the fifth EcoBoost powerplant from Ford Motor Company. Initially to be built at the automaker's Craiova, Romania plant, it will also be offered in the Fusion's twin, the Mondeo, in other markets. This engine will debut at the Shanghai Motor Show next month, and the 1.5-liter is of particular importance in the Chinese market - there is significant tax relief in the People's Republic for vehicles powered by engines with a capacity of 1.5 liters or less.
At a media briefing Thursday, Ford declined to divulge exact power or fuel economy numbers, though Joe Bakaj, vice president of powertrain engineering, told Autoblog that power output should be similar to that of the current 1.6-liter inline-four, and that overall efficiency will be "better than the 1.6." Our earlier report stated that the 1.5-liter four will produce 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque - losses of 1 hp and 7 lb-ft versus the 1.6-liter engine. Ford states that the 1.5-liter four will feature many of the same technologies used on the company's 1.0-liter EcoBoost inline-three, including an integrated exhaust manifold that recaptures much of the engine's heat.
