This is a real F250 Highboy, factory spring over lift, Dana 60 Limited Slip Rear End, not sure of the gear ratio but guessing 4:56. Dana 44 front with heavy duty manual locking hubs. Very straight and rust free. Factory air conditioning works and has been converted and serviced recently. Come with the original order sheet and lived most of its life in California, I bought it 3 years ago in Farmington, New Mexico from a guy that painted it and put the rims, Rancho shocks and tires on it. It still has the factory undercoating I believe with the Midnight Blue paint showing thru. This was originally a Wimbledon White and Midnight Blue truck. Not sure of the mileage but it read 29k on it whenI bought it and the way it drives and how everything works I'm thinking it has about 140k on it now. It looks like the original 360 block but the 2nd owner said it was a 390 but hard to tell without looking at the crank. It runs super strong, has a 4 barrel Holley 650 carb, Performer intake, electronic ignition, long tube headers going into 1 at the right rear tire. No squeeks or rattles, Power Steering works great, all of the factory gauges and lights work, window washer works etc. The interior has been redone but there are a couple tears on the rt and lt side of the bench cloth seat. Most of the chrome trim looks original with a few aftermarket pieces. Tow package with light hookup, the dash pad looks original and has a few cracks from sun probably. It made the trip from Colorado to Wyoming to Seattle towing a full u-haul trailer and a bed full of furniture and dirt bikes without missing a beat. One of the nicer trucks you'll see. It's been a great truck but I just bought a new Challenger and need to sell to help make car payments. The truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition
Mon, 13 Oct 2014Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.
Ford to rebrand SVT as 999?
Mon, 22 Sep 2014Ford operates a number of performance divisions around the world. There's SVT in the US, Team RS in Europe and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) in Australia. But the Blue Oval has been steadily integrating its performance operations into one unit, and here we might have our first indication of what it will be called.
A reader at Jalopnik sent in a survey in which respondents were asked to gauge the name for a new performance brand from a "major automotive manufacturer," and while the identity of that automaker was not disclosed, according to the survey, the automaker is considering the name 999 for its new go-fast unit.
As our compatriots point out, the 999 was Ford's first racecar, a rudimentary chassis with a 19-liter inline-four campaigned by Henry Ford around the turn of the 20th century. (Ford also used the number to designate a Fusion fuel-cell racer a few years back.) That could prove the tie-in Dearborn is looking for in rebranding its performance operations worldwide, replacing the letters SVT, RS and FPV globally under one name.
Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
