Ford F-100 1978 302 Shortbed Chrome Package C-6 on 2040-cars
Year:1978
Mileage:95482
Location:
Twin Falls, Idaho, United States
|
This is a 1978 F 100 Ranger short bed pickup, and would be a great start for a project, or use as a daily driver. It has a 302 engine that runs great and gets less than impressive gas mileage. Lot's of room for a bigger motor if that's your interest. It's cold-blooded like most Fords of that time. The transmission is a C-6 and drips a little from under-use, and probably needs a new pan gasket. I recently replaced part of the the factory dual exhaust with 2 new mufflers that are installed with exhaust clamps. It has a behind-the-seat gas tank that has not been used in at least 15 years. This truck has nice chrome details including folding tie points. It is wired for a camp shell. There are two minor rust spots above each of the rear wheel wells. There is some minor paint damage on the right front corner and along the driver door hinges, and the driver side door needs to be adjusted for a better closing fit. Torn front seat, missing channel lining on the driver window. The sliding rear window was installed after-market. It has an after-market stereo and speakers. Good tires, soft ride. The bed has been well used, plenty of dings and scratches (that's a little sand and gravel in the bed in the picture). Please inspect the photos carefully. I have recently replaced the left rear tail light bezel that is missing in the photos. If you want to make payment arrangements outside of Paypal, please contact me. I can accept credit cards. Pleas email with any questions. Good luck!

Project Ugly Horse: Part VI
Thu, 21 Mar 2013Solid axle? What solid axle?
I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation.
This should not have gone this easily. Having a long and checkered history of simple projects punctuated by much wailing and gnashing of knuckles, I was fully prepared to embark on a seven-day journey down a rabbit hole of broken bolts, internet hearsay and consternation when I finally decided to lay hands on the '89 Mustang with the goal of relieving the car of its stock rear axle. Instead, it took less than a full morning's worth of work to carve the old 7.5-inch solid axle from its moorings and mock up something, well, different.
Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.
