2006 Ford Ranger XLT super cab 4 x 4 automatic 4.0L with power locks, mirrors, and windows, sliding rear window, air conditioning, and cruise control. 

This truck started out as a 2001.  I bought it back in 04 and loved it.  When it started getting old and tired. I found a really nice wrecked loaded 2006 with nice wheels and good tires. I lifted the cab off of the 01 and put it on the frame, suspension, drivetrain, and motor of the 06. Then I changed out all the interior to the 06. So the cab, doors, fenders, hood, grill, bumpers and title are 2001 everything else, all the mechanical, suspension, electrical, interior, and side view mirrors (the new model mirrors were larger and so much nicer) are 2006 with 101k. 

I drove it for about 6 months as is with the primer. But I got busy and never got around to finishing it. The top of the cab had started to peel so I took it down to metal and shot it with epoxy. The front end had some wind damage so I sanded it all out and primered it and I took out all the little dings and dents that happened over the years to cherry it out.  All the body work has been completed and the final coat of primer is ready to be sanded along with the rest of the truck and then painted. I was going to do a three stage using the original white as the base so I didn't have to jam it and one of the nice pearls on new vehicles. It is a great truck with lots of power and a great deal for a person looking to get some sweat equity and possible a custom paint job. Clean title.  I included a picture of the sticker on the motor showing its manufacture date.

Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
For more details about the study and the top companies, check out the press release posted below.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Are you a new Ford Mustang SVO? [w/video]

Fri, 16 May 2014

When Ford announced that its 2015 Mustang would arrive with a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, three letters came to mind: SVO. While Ford hasn't said a word regarding the rebirth of a Mustang SVO model, this latest set of spy shots shows us something very, very interesting. Allow us to explain.
The Mustang prototype in these photos looks very similar to the GT500 test cars we've spotted before - same bulging hood, aggressive front fascia and air vents aft of the front wheels. What's different, however, is around back. Have a look at the exhaust, and note that instead of the GT500's usual quad pipes, two of the exhaust outlets have been capped off.
Our spies point out that these exhaust outlets could be closed for some sort of emissions testing or another engineering reason, but it's also important to note that the engine and exhaust notes of this car sound completely different from earlier GT500 prototypes. We've got a video below that compares the two.
