1978 Ford F100 with Short step side bed. Rebuilt engine and transmission. Tranny is a Borg Warner T-10 Built proof 4 speed with Granny Gear. Built for mudding pulling and low end torque. Engine is a Ford 351M bored 40 over with Keith black coated flat top pistons. The connecting rods are eagle h beam - all the nuts and bolt are replaced with ARP bolts crank shaft is also eagle. Engine is converted from points to HEI. Carb is a Holley Carb with manual choke. This engine delivers an enormous amount of low end torque.

Truck was restored in the early 90s, frame has no rust - and some rust is now visible on the cab. Truck has custom dual chrome stacks and add quite the sound. Vehicle is definitely and attention grabber. The bed is a wooden floor and just replaced the carpet inside the cab. The truck is lifted pretty high 3" body 6" suspension and sets on 33x12.5x15s. Truck has custom LED taillights. Lastly the truck has powertrax lock-right lockers in both axles. This thing will not let you down in a tight spot. I personally do not take this truck mudding, but have not got stuck yet in fields (wet/dry) or any other rougher terrain.

May consider Partial trade offers. I am mainly looking for a Honda Foreman ATV with EPS (Electronic Shift) with or with out trailer.

The Truck also has brand new Tires (Less than 100 Mi), new Clutch and TOB from Jegs, and large drop pitman arm.  External gauges added for water temp and RPM


Shipping, Title and Mileage:
Title was sent as Mileage inaccurate, however the gauge does work and shows in the 50k range.  Title is clean not rebuilt but shows mileage inaccurate.  Title is an Ohio title.  Shipping and title transfer will need to be arranged by buyer local pick up or shipped. Please keep in mind it is a lifted vehicle when discussing shipping options.

More pictures will be available by request.  This is not a show room vehicle, but would be very easy to get it to that point.

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India

Mon, 03 Feb 2014

Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.

'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you

Fri, 03 May 2013

The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
