1968 Ford F100 Ranger 1 Owner Survivor on 2040-cars
Fayetteville, Georgia, United States
|
Original unrestored 1968 Ford F100 Ranger in great condition. Truck has 113,000 miles on original 360 2bbl v-8 and automatic transmission.
Engine runs great, and transmission shifts well. Truck has recent tune up including rebuilt carb, points and condenser, plugs and wires. Truck also has new battery and 4 new tires. I recently drove this truck on a 120 mile trip with no problems.
Body is in great shape - body panels are straight and fit well. Doors function wonderfully and shut with a solid 'click'. Bed is solid with some light surface rust. I have owned several of these trucks, and I have never had a bed in such good condition - fender wells are dent free, bed floor is straight with no holes, paint on inside of tailgate isn't even scratched. There is some damage to driver front hood/headlight bezel/fender where owner ran into a column while parking in their garage...what a shame because the rest of the truck is amazingly straight. Replacement parts can easily be found. Rust: the cab support at the rear of the cab has some rust, as does the driver cab corner behind the body trim.
Truck has manual steering and brakes. Steering is tight, and truck cruises straight down the road, even when you take your hand off the wheel.
Interior is complete and in good shape for its age. Seat cover is torn on drivers side, carpet is 45 years old. Visors and Headliner are in good shape. Original Radio still in place. Dash pad has crack in middle. Steering wheel is almost perfect - has 1 small crack at base of the horn ring. Dome light still works when you open the door!
Gas gauge not currently working. Has exhaust leak on passenger side.
I purchased this truck from the widow and son of the original owner with plans to turn it into a resto-mod driver. After getting it home and seeing the condition its in, I just could not bring myself to tear it apart...

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters
Sun, 28 Sep 2014The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.

Ford, Ram in heavy-duty towing spat
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Every pickup truck commercial has the brand trying to convince us that its model is the biggest, brawniest vehicle on the block. But Ford and Ram appear ready to really throw down the gauntlet and scrap over the towing figures for their heavy-duty models, and it could potentially end up in court.
The issue revolves around what it means to be best in class. Ford claims that its 2015 F-450 (pictured above) has a max tow rating of 31,200 pounds, compared to 30,000 pounds for the Ram 3500 (right). However, both companies market these heavy haulers as having the top towing in their class. According to Automotive News, Ford is threatening legal action if Ram doesn't back down.
The situation isn't as simple as just comparing the numbers, though. First, the two companies calculate their towing capacities differently. Ram adheres to the SAE J2807 rating, while Ford uses its own internal system. Although, as the company introduces new models, they are certified using the SAE standard. "When an all-new F-Series Super Duty is introduced, it also will use SAE J2807," said Ford to Autoblog in an emailed statement.
