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.

Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.

Ford Mustang GT350 seen and heard in motion for the first time

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

We just recently saw our first spy shots of the next-gen hi-po Ford Mustang slated to replace the Shelby GT500, but now we're getting our first look - and listen - of prototypes captured on video. Mustang6g.com has the video (along with some different spy shots), which show that, if nothing else, SVT knows how to tune an exhaust system. The :50 mark is a good example of this, but fast-forward to around 2:00 where the driver revs the engine and really gets on the throttle hard taking off from a stop.
There's still no definitive evidence that the next-gen SVT Mustang - said to be called GT350 - will be naturally aspirated, but it sounds just as menacing as the current Shelby GT500. While the video posted below exhibits the sort of quality that is to be expected from someone driving while trying to film someone who is attempting to elude being filmed, it's still exciting to see and hear this new Mustang in motion.

Holy crime-fighting Ford F-150, Batman!

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

What would Batman drive for his weekly trips to Home Depot for the bits and pieces needed to keep his lair deep below Wayne Manor in tip-top condition? Certainly not the Batmobile - there's no way a 4x8 sheet of plywood will fit between the wheel wells, not to mention the fact that jet turbine engines have an unfortunate tendency to set trailers on fire when towing...
No, what Batman needs is a pickup truck. The boys from Ford teamed up with Galpin Auto Sports to build just such a machine, and it has just debuted at Comic Con. Designed by Jared Barris, grandson of the legendary kustomizer George Barris, the 2012 F-150 pickup you see here, dubbed Crime Fighter, is painted Tuxedo Black with Ferrari Red highlights and is affixed with fins on each side of the truck bed. It's nothing if not unique.
Well, it's at least unique for now. According to Ford, Galpin in Southern California is willing to take orders for customers looking to don a cape and hit the town for a night of crime-fighting action. Or trips to Home Depot. Check out our high-res image gallery and then scroll down for the official description from Ford. We're waiting for details such as pricing and build time from Ford, and we'll update this post if and when we hear back.
