 I WILL GET PICTURES THIS EVENING!

You are looking at my project truck ive had for about the last year. Started life as a standard 2.3 ford courier, I removed that engine and installed a 2.3 turbo engine with all related parts from a 1984 ford thunderbird-using the stock truck transmission. The exhaust was professionally done and ive been using the truck as a daily driver for about the last year. It needs some work for sure like it needs and electric fan wired up and the turbo waste gate actuator could use being replaced. Its running 13 lbs of boost right now with no issues

It is an old truck so there is some rust and the windshield needs replaced. Shes no show truck as the pictures will show.

I will be glad to answer any questions as they come

extras with the truck are:

new stage 2 clutch kit

rear end with a lower ratio for better freeway rpms

a/c kit removed from another courier includes under dash vents and misc parts minus compressor

spare instrument cluster

spare intake manifold from a merkur including mas sensor

ranger roller cam with rockers

im sure theres more I will add as the day goes on. I needed an extra cab truck for the kids so this truck just sits now

my reserve is 800 I would feel free to drive the truck home if your within 75-125 miles of me but ive never taken it further than that I will do whatever is needed to help with shipping

Tue, 04 Nov 2014



Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.

2013 Ford F-150 Limited

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.

Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Bloomberg 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.
