1987 And 1988 Ford Ranger Supercab 4x4 Trucks, 2 Trucks For One Price. Both Run on 2040-cars
Silverwood, Michigan, United States
|
Hello. you are looking at a package deal on two Ford Ranger extended cab 4X4 trucks. One is a 1987, the other a 1988. They are both identical trucks, Both run good with the 2.9L V6 engines and both have the 5 speed manual transmissions. I had bought the 1988 (the grey silver) truck first, and what it needs to be functional is a transmission. When you let out the clutch, it grinds really bad, sounds like a bad bearing. The drivers side of the box is caved in on it. Other than these issues, the truck runs really nice. Its a very clean solid truck for the age. I also have included in the auction but not pictured a stepside box from a newer later 90s style Ranger that I was going to put on this truck and paint it. With a bit of TLC, youd have one nice clean older truck that would make a fine driver for a long time. The other truck, the blue one is a 1987 That is really rusty and ruff. It runs and drives good, and was recently tuned up . I am driving this truck back and forth to work everyday, and it drives fine. Everything works on it, except the heater core is bad. I have a brand new heater core that goes with it. I had origionally bought the 1987 to use as a parts truck for the 1988, to take the trans out, and make one nice truck out of the two. WHen I drove the 1987 home It drove so nice, I figgured why part it down, so, I decided to put it on the road and run it for a while. The 1987 truck is quite ruff, The body is shot on it, the frame has a crack in it, but there is a patch welded over it, the windshield is good, and it runs and goes down the road rather well. The doors dont open or shut very well. There is a 1988 Factory Manual that goes with both trucks, a Chiltons book, and a Haynes book with the 2. Also new heater core, and a new set of front and rear shoes as well. So, In this auction you get a 1988 Ford Ranger extended cab 4X4 that just needs a transmission to be driveable, a 1987 Ford Ranger 4X4 thats ruff but can be driven as is, and a stepside box from a late 90s Ranger as well as some repair manuals, and a few spare goodies. There is a lot to work with here. If you have any questions, please call or text Chris at 810-656-7496. My starting bid is my lowest price I will take for the pair. I will not separate, it all goes as one lot. I have both trucks for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. Both trucks have clear Michigan titles. Payment in full is due within 7 days of auction end, no exceptions. I will continue to drive the 1987 Ranger untill auction has ended. Buyer has 90 Days to pick up the trucks after auction end. If you pay by check or Money order, Trucks are not to leave untill the check or money order clears my bank. You are buying both as is. Trucks are in Silverwood, Mi. 48760. An hour and a half north of Detroit. Thanks for looking, please see my other auctions. No sales outside the USA please God Bless.

Can an actual Ford F-150 ride on 4 Power Wheels F-150s?
Tue, Dec 9 2014A lot of kids are rough on their toys, especially when it comes to those made to be used outside, like a four-wheeled kid-size Power Wheels. Whether it's cruising through the sand box, carrying piles of rocks in the driveway or crashing around trees in the backyard, these motorized vehicles often take punishment from the moment the giftwrap comes off. The folks at Fisher-Price decided to give their latest F-150 Power Wheels a true torture test worse than any kid could have ever managed by setting a real 2015 Ford F-150 on top of four of them. Would the little toy trucks explode in a shower of plastic shards in a massive collapse, and if not, could they drive away afterwards? The latest F-150 might be 700 pounds lighter thanks to the switch to aluminum, but it's still a fullsize pickup. According to this clip, the truck weighs in at 4,120 pounds, which puts an average of 1,030 pounds on each of the toys. Check out the video above to see how the stunt goes, and click on the gallery below for some behind-the-scenes looks at the setup.
Auto investor Kirk Kerkorian dead at 98
Wed, Jun 17 2015Kirk Kerkorian, among the most talked-about investors in the American auto industry in recent memory, died at the age of 98 in Los Angeles on Monday, June 15. The billionaire ran the investment company Tracinda Corp. and was the largest shareholder in MGM Resorts International. Kerkorian attempted to use his power as a well-financed investor to push the auto industry in some fascinating ways. In 2006, he used his nearly 10-percent stake in General Motors to push a merger with the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The deal made it as far as discussions, but eventually fell through. Kerkorian also attempted to purchase Chrysler - twice. According to Automotive News, the first effort came in 1995 with a $22.8-billion offer for the automaker, and soon after it failed the company merged with Daimler. Then in 2007, Kerkorian was back with a bid for $4.5 billion, but things eventually fell to Cerberus. The billionaire finished the trifecta by buying up $1 billion in Ford stock in 2008 to make Kerkorian the single largest investor in the company. However, the situation didn't last long, and by the end of that year, he had unloaded the shares. According to Automotive News, Kerkorian was ranked by Forbes as the world's 41st richest man in 2008 with a net worth of $16 billion.

The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land
Thu, Oct 15 2015Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.
