Up for auction is a 2005 Ford Ranger XLT extended cab pickup with 157,039 miles. We traded this truck in on a Dodge Nitro and did not realize the rust issues on the truck. This extended cab is not a 4 door extended cab, just a 2 door extended cab.

White in color, this truck was used for work, and it shows. It has dings and dents on the top of the bed rails and a few on the sides of the bed. The tailgate has been replaced, as it is yellow in color and the rest of the truck is white. There is a rust issue on the passenger bed side behind the rear wheel. There is also rust issues with the rear of the frame of this truck. Not sure what it was used for in its past life, but I venture to guess it lived some of its life working with salt water. The rear portion where the rear bumper bolts to the frame has rusted off and the replacement bumper has steel plates that bolt to the bumper and bolt to the frame. I have taken pictures the best I can of it. This was the reason we did not go any further with our plans to retail the truck.

Inside the seats are fine, there is white dog hair everywhere, but the seats slide back and forth, and the recline mechanisms work just fine. The rear jump seats I did not fold out, but they are there. I cannot believe anyone would be comfortable in them anyway. The radio is a plain jane AM/FM radio, the windows are manual (have to crank them), the door locks are manual, the cruise control does work, the truck does have a/c and does blow cold. The owners manual is in the glove box for late night reading.

I started this truck with our jump box, I have included a video. We had to use the jump box because the truck has been sitting for the good part of a month. Once I let the truck run, it fired back up once I turned it off. I personally drove this truck 35 miles in each direction to drop off and a week later to pickup a rebuilt transmission. It runs and drives very well. Like I said before, we were planning on retailing this truck until we found the rust issues.

Looks like the previous owner had installed new tires just before they traded it in, because the tires look great. The factory steel wheels have the factory center caps with them also. The spare is in the bed of the truck, probably because it will not fit underneath with the relocated rear bumper.

This truck is being sold as-is with no warranties. If you do not understand this, please ask. If you are interested in this truck, I suggest you stop by our dealership and look at it yourself. I have described it to the best of my ability, and I am willing to take more pictures if needed. Please ask any and all questions before the auction ends, and I will do my best to answer them.

Payment is cash, certified check, or MasterCard/Visa. A deposit is required with in 48 hours of auction end time. Vehicle can remain on our lot for 14 days, after that storage will occur at $10.00 a day. Once payment is made, you will be given a Buyer's Order and the Title to the truck. We can provide temporary tags for an extra fee as long as you have liability insurance on the truck. We have a $199.00 processing fee that will be added to your final bid, please be aware of this!!

You are buying this Ranger in the state of Virginia, therefore Virginia state law will prevail.

Thanks for looking!! If you have any questions, please ask!!!!

eBay Find of the Day: 1970 Ford Torino King Cobra prototype

Wed, 08 May 2013

Over the last decade or so, competition in NASCAR has led to some pretty funky looking racecars. And when the sport was still up and coming, the tight competition actually led to some interesting production cars. The Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird are perhaps the most well-known cars of the sport's "aero wars" era but the Ford Torino King Cobra might have been the most memorable of all, if not for some different homologation rules established in 1970. The Torino King Cobra never made it to production and never competed in NASCAR, but three examples exist including this one now for sale on eBay.
Designed as a successor for the aero-tuned Torino Talladega, the Torino King Cobra has a sleeker front end with hidden headlights and a sloped nose. As the story goes, NASCAR made a rule change in 1970 requiring 3,000 of the vehicles to be produced, which was substantially more than the 500 units required by the previous rule. One of the three prototypes ever built - and the only one built with the Boss 429 engine - is now for sale on eBay with a starting bid of $500,000. With a little more than three days left on the auction there are still no bids, but in the grand scheme of things this seems like a relatively fair price for a rare piece of automobile and racing history.

Matt Damon is Carroll Shelby, with Christian Bale in Ford vs. Ferrari film

Thu, Jun 21 2018

Right after we reported that one of the Le Mans-winning Ford GT40s is coming up for auction, word got round that its story will now be turned into a Hollywood movie. There will be an as-yet-untitled major motion picture that tells the story of Ford battling Ferrari in the 1960s, culminating in the Ford GT40's dramatic 1-2-3 finish in the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. The movie has lined up an all-star cast, with "Batman" and "American Psycho" actor Christian Bale tapped to play key GT40 developer, test driver and racer Ken Miles, and "Punisher" actor Jon Bernthal as Lee Iacocca. The plum role of Carroll Shelby is going to Matt Damon, last seen driving across the Red Planet in "The Martian" or down a flight of stairs in the "Bourne" film series. The film's director will be James Mangold, known from directing last year's "Logan." View 37 Photos Autoweek reports that the original screenplay was based on A.J. Baime's book " Go Like Hell," but there will be a different screenplay written from scratch. Originally, "Go Like Hell" was to be a different project starring Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. Meanwhile, the book will reportedly be turned into a TV series produced by Peter Dinklage of "Game of Thrones." And meanwhile some more, there are also competing Enzo Ferrari biopics in the works starring Robert De Niro and another starring Hugh Jackman that will also surely touch on the rivalry with Ford. While there's no guarantee yet that the GT40 biopic will match Steve McQueen's "Le Mans," we're got high hopes. It's a great story worthy of all the attention it's getting.

How Ford plans to handle insurance and repair questions surrounding new aluminum-bodied F-150

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Building a car out of aluminum has a number of benefits - the lighter weight allows the vehicle to be more agile, more fuel efficient, make better use of its power and be more resistant to dings and dents. The downside to the advanced construction, though, is that repairs are both challenging and expensive. That's troubling for the new, aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, because it's kind of made a name for itself as a rugged, durable work vehicle.
How will the legions of Ford buyers cope when it comes time to insure and repair their new trucks? Well, according to Ford, it's expecting a ten-percent jump in insurance costs for the aluminum-bodied F-150, although Ford's truck marketing manager, Doug Scott, was quick to point out that the F-150 is generally cheaper to insure than its competition from Ram and General Motors. "At the end of the day, that's sort of a wash," Scott told Automotive News at last week's Detroit Auto Show. "We've spent a lot of time and feel very comfortable that that's not going to be an inhibitor."
The other issue facing Ford is the distinct lack of body shops that have the training or equipment to repair aluminum-bodied vehicles. AN cites an estimate from the Automotive Service Association claiming that of the 30,000 independent body shops in the US, less than 10 percent are able to work on aluminum.
