I am listing my 1983 Ford Ranger for sale. I really don't want to sell but don't have the time to fully finish it. The thing I have already done is a V8 swap with a C6 transmission and solid axle swap. The motor and Transmission only has around 5,000 mile on it AND THE TIRES AROUND 6,000 miles on them.The motor and trans did not come from a junk yard, it was ordered as a crate motor and trans. I done the solid axle swap using a yj jeep suspension and jeep yj Dana30 with the front brake hardware being brand new( calipers, rotors, and brake hoses, and pads)It is setting on 37x13.50 Pro Comp xterrain tires but could fit 39-40 inch tires. I have a rear disc brake conversion kit for it but have not got around to install it. it also has bushwacker cutout fender flares installed on it
A list of stuff that will need to be done is a front driver side axle shaft and hub, front drive shaft modified to fit ( have a drive shaft, just need to be shortened with a bigger joint put on), a front sway bar, steering gear box, and the Carburetor cleaned due to truck not being drove. Will crank up but after the choke kick off some times will have a hard time idling. the inside of the truck does not have any carpet. it has been sprayed with bed liner spray and the painted. the inside will need some  work. it also does not have A/C or a heater. there is also a small rust spot above the windshield on the driver side
The 13gal gas tank was replaced with a 20gal fuel cell which is bolted in the bed of the truck. WITH A LITTLE WORK COULD BECOME A DAILY DRIVER in some area but where I live it is sitting to high to be street legal
The truck is being sold as is and i would strongly recommend towing it mainly because of high it is sitting with no sway bar and the front hub bearing assembly and the steering box. I also have a extra set of leaf springs that will fit on the front , and the rear disc brakes, and any other parts I may still have for the truck. It does have a clear title but do not have the title because of where I live, it is old enough to not have to have the title. just in the motor, and transmission I have around $2,500.00 in it and the wheels and tires another $2,200.00 and thats not counting the extra stuff.  The only reason I am listing it is because I got to many project going on and don't know when I will get back around to messing with the truck again. It is also being sold locally so I reserve the right to end the listing early If you are within 150 miles I can deliver the truck for an additional charge. feel free to ask any question you may have. Also if you dont plan on buying it don't bid

Ford 1.0L takes third-straight International Engine of the Year award

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost is proving to be The Little Engine That Could, and it continues to acquit itself well, finding favor as one of the best powerplants in the world. To confirm it yet again, the tiny mill just won the International Engine of the Year award for the third year in a row, likewise also nabbing the title in the Sub 1.0-liter category.
Packing 123 horsepower and 148 pound-feet of torque with overboost (125 lb-ft normally), the tiny engine combines impressive power in a size small enough to be a carry-on item for a commercial flight. US buyers only got a taste of the award winner in the 2014 Fiesta, while the 1.0 EcoBoost has been available throughout the Ford lineup in Europe for a few years now. American sales have reportedly been strong, however, and next up in the US, the mill will find its way into the 2015 Focus.
The panel of 82 jury members from 34 countries also named the Mercedes-AMG 2.0-liter turbo found in the A45, CLA45 and GLA45 AMG models with 355 hp and 332 lb-ft as the best New Engine for 2014. The electric powertrain from Tesla won Green Engine prize, and the 4.5-liter V8 from the Ferrari 458 Italia took home the honor of top Performance Engine yet again. You can check out all the winners below, and scroll down further to read Ford's celebratory announcement of its award.

How Ford made its 2015 Ford Mustang safer for toupee wearers [w/video]

Fri, 28 Feb 2014

Ford is ready to tell the story of its 2015 Mustang Convertible, the can't-miss bits being the easier, quicker and quieter roof operation, a more robust roof build for a coupe-like cabin noise, more trunk space, better visibility and reduced in-cabin buffeting. The top release system has been completely redesigned with a single, center-mounted latch on the windshield frame instead of the dual latches of before. The driver can now release the roof without having to lean over into the passenger space, after which the top goes down fully automatically with the press of a button. Ford doesn't say how long it takes to stow, but it's apparently done in half as much time as before, so figure around 8 seconds.
The roof uses a five-bow structure, with the fabric outer and full inner headliner sandwiching ten millimeters of insulation. Detailing work on the top has eliminated "unsightly folds" in the corners when the roof is up and made it more compact when down; its Z-fold assembly is 6.7 inches lower than before at its highest point when put down. Ford says the new electric drive internals make less noise when in operation, and the fully-finished droptop look is achieved with snap-in caps that flank the rear seating and stow in the trunk when not in use (the outgoing Mustang's top was higher and the front when folded and always looked like it was catching air and creating drag).
The compact roof and newly independent rear suspension setup in back means liberated trunk space, 11.4 cubic feet ready to swallow golf bags and tourist swag. You can read a lot more about it in the press release below, check it out in the short video of running footage and learn about the aerodynamic improvements made to the entire Mustang lineup that decrease drag and increase fuel economy.

Average transaction prices climb to a record $36,270 in January

Sat, Feb 3 2018

The automotive sector made a hash of the numbers last month, a mess of pluses and minuses clogging the transaction-price charts according to Kelley Blue Book. The overall industry rose one percent, even though buyers bought fewer cars and light vehicles in January 2018 vs 2017 using the selling-day adjusted rate. Due to January transaction prices rising to $36,270, a record for January, the value of new vehicles sold climbed more than $1 billion compared to January 2017. KBB's transaction prices don't include customer incentives, which changes the complexion slightly; average incentive spending rose to just over ten percent. The average transaction price in December 2017 was $36,756, so January dropped a bit - nothing unexpected, with the month annually blamed for "January doldrums." More revealing is the fact that the average transaction price in January 2017 was $34,910. This year's plumped-up figure came courtesy of the continued shift to crossovers, SUVs, and light trucks, which shouldn't surprise anyone who's read an automotive blog in the past 20 years. That category comprised nearly 70 percent of new vehicle sales for the month. Some manufacturers profited more than others, though. Fiat Chrysler managed 12.8 percent fewer sales in January compared year-on-year, but the company's vehicles sold for $1,300 more. The Ford brand suffered a 6.3-percent dip in sales, but brand transaction prices increased $2,000, while a Lincoln sold for $8,700 more on average. General Motors sold more cars and sold them for more money; overall GM transaction prices rose four percent, or $1,270, while a GMC traded hands for seven-percent more than in January 2017 and a Cadillac got $2,300 more on average. Of KBB's listed automakers, the Volkswagen Group got the most of out its customers, transaction prices rising at the German automaker by 5.6 percent to $42,243 in January 2018 compared to a year earlier. American Honda followed with a 4.3-percent increase to $28,991, GM in third at 4.1 percent to $40,313. Find your next car at Autoblog using our new and used car listings or the Car Finder tool. Broken out by segment, minivans rocked the table, transaction prices leaping by 7.9 percent to $35,380 compared to January a year earlier. Luxury cars boasted the next-highest rise, at 3.6 percent to $58,533.
