FANTASTIC CLASSIC TRUCK THAT DEFINED A GENERATION. THIS TRUCK IS IN AMZING CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE.  CLEAN AND STRAIGHT PANELS WITH NO BODY WORK. PAINT FINISH STILL HAS IMPRESSIVE SHINE.  This truck has serious MUSCLE!

1977 Ford F-150 Ranger XLT 4WD with a short box, 4" Factory Lift, Edelbrock Performer Intake Manifold (4 barrel) Holley 750 Double pumper Carb, 86K miles, Stainless Headers going to Flow Master dual exhaust that SOUNDS AMAZING!  The original owner ordered this truck direct from Ford in '77 with the 429 cu in engine, which is the same block as the 460, just a shorter stroke. 10,000 LB HEAVY DUTY TOW PACKAGE W/Step up bumper and trailer brake system mounted in cab.  

Original Carpet and seats were worn excessively, so the first thing I did after I bought it from the original owner in Tacoma, Washington was replaced the carpet with brand new black cut pile, and replaced the cloth blue seat with black vinyl (looks and feels like new Leather). New wing mirrors. All improvements/restorations were done through LMC catalogs, so stock (or closest to OEM) products were used.

Also, the truck has over $2,000.00 in Dynamat, Dynapad, and Dynaliner installed under the carpet, seats, and on the firewall to reduce road noise/vibrations in the cab.  Extra sheets of Dynamat Xtreme will be provided with truck sale.

All gauges work and function as they should.  The heater core was just replaced as well as the Starter Solenoid, Power Steering pump and return lines, and washer motor pump.  New seat belts (black to match new black upholstery).  New gaskets on cab around doors & glass. Fender Flares matching existing paint. I've put $5000 into restorations in the past year, while maintaining the stock look.

The truck looks and feels like American Muscle... the engine creates huge power and beautiful sound.  The only thing slowing this beautiful beast down, is perhaps the differential/gearing.  The gear ratios are for pulling and torque, but with a little wrenching, this truck can easily generate over 500 HP at the rear wheel... My NHRA mechanic had me inline next to complete a custom build with forged aluminum pistons, and an EFI conversion... yet, I recently became a first time father and things like this just aren't practical for now : (

Please call with any questions, or email me.  I can start it if the exhaust sound is something that gets your blood going like mine!

Buyer is responsible for taking delivery of the vehicle.  Seller maintains the right to sell to private party locally within auction time. $2,000.00 USD deposit is required within 24 hours of auction ending, and must provide certified (bank/cashier's check) at time of pick up.  Clear title and no maintenance issues whatsoever, yet, sale is AS IS. 

Thank you for your time!  Best of LUCK and Happy Bidding!

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

Are you Ford's next Bullitt Mustang? [w/poll]

Thu, 27 Mar 2014

Ford has a long history of offering special editions of its legendary Mustang. One of the most vaunted of those trim packages, though, has only been offered twice. The first time was in 2001, and then again in 2008. Yes, we're talking about the Bullitt.
Named for the infamous Dark Highland Green Mustang Fastback driven by Steve McQueen in the 1968 cop melodrama Bullitt, the car was famous for not just its pilot, but the high-speed chase it took part in during the movie. Now, we think we have images of the next Bullitt.
According to our spy photographers, the paint is a "dead-ringer" for the Dark Highland Green that has signified these special edition Mustangs. While we're inclined to agree, it's also worth pointing out that this shade looks very similar to one of the 2015's other new colors, Guard. We've yet to see one on the road (let alone in such dreary conditions), so it's tough to say for certain.
