I have owned this truck now since 2007 and when I purchased it, it was in poor shape (however no rust.) I have spent thousands of dollars and countless hours restoring this rust free truck. I went with an original Ford color from 2005 Ford Zinc Yellow...from the pictures you can see the paint was done right! The body was pulled off the truck and POR-15 Rust Inhibitive coating was sprayed on undercarriage. All new Rancho RS9000 shocks were installed along with Fabritech ladder bars in the rear. The front DANA44 was rebuilt and a ARB Red differential cover. Most of the undercarriage parts that came off including front coil springs, brackets for shocks and mounts were all powder coated. Front coil spings were powder coated Red. All new Grade 8 hardware installed everywhere as well as stainless steel. New exhaust ran with MagnaFlow stainless mufflers. Brakes were all gone through and new HAWK SuperDuty brake pads installed up front with new RedPowder Coated calipers along with Earl stainless brake lines. Truck has all stainless steel brake lines throughout truck! The Ford 9" rear end has new bearings along with a limited slip differential which makes it run on highways and streets smooth. The Ford 400M motor was rebuilt and rebuilt Aussie closed chamber heads were installed to wake up the motor. Edelbrock cam was installed along with Edelbrock intake manifold and street avenger carburetor. Most parts off motor were also powder coated. A new Saginaw power steering pump was installed and really removed the old Ford power steering problems. A new chrome alternator was also installed along with a Optima RedTop battery. All new wiring and cables installed in motor compartment. Aluminum pulleys were also installed. Headlights were also installed with new halogen style bulbs and wiring kit to brighten headlights. New aluminum Ford grill was installed. All front end wheel wells and radiator housing was pulled off and powder coated black. New hood springs installed along with all new rubber moldings for doors, hood, and glass. Alpine CD player installed with USB hook up. The old Ford gauges were replaced with a custom bezel and new AutoMeter Z gauges. All LED Green lighting installed inside all gauges to match stock look with a brighter LED light. The drivetrain was also gone through and the NP435 manual transmission was rebuilt and a new CenterForce clutch installed with a Ranger 27% overdrive. The Ranger overdrive is awesome and allows for highway cruising at low RPM's so better fuel economy. At 75MPH the engine idles at 2100 RPM's which is much better for cruising. The NP205 transfer case was also rebuilt. The driveshafts were also renewed with new u-joints and sleeves along with new yokes. This truck trully has been renewed. There really is too much to list here. Interior also has new carpet with insulation. Also has Corbeau Moab seats that are comfortable. New seat beats (lap beats as that what was stock in 73.) Grant leather steering wheel and aluminum kit installed. Interior trim and headliner are all new. The air conditioning doesn't work and parts were removed during motor restoration. Heater works awesome and new heater core and hoses installed. There is an electric fan and four core radiator that keeps the motor running cool through all conditions. Tires and wheels are in awesome shape and compliment the truck. I hope I have captured most of the work put into this truck. This sale is an as is sale. I do have a Word document list of all work done and when to the truck along with a lot of part numbers. |

Watch Piquet and Mansell bend some sheetmetal in Ford Fusion GP
Tue, 12 Feb 2013As we told you about before, there were four episodes planned for the Ford Fusion GP campaign in Brazil, and the whole series has now run its course. The Ford ads pit Brazilian Formula One driver Nelson Piquet against English F1 pilot Nigel Mansell driving the new Fusion, the two coming together again after their partnership at the Williams F1 team ended in a miserable state more than 20 years ago.
They're lined up for you below, in reverse chronological order. You should watch number three first, though, as it adds a bit more spice to the NASCAR action in the fourth.
2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of
Tue, 17 Dec 2013One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.
Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns
Wed, 22 May 2013Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.
