This is a great little Ford Ranger with very low miles.
It was a friend of mine who didn't want to sell it, but I finally talked him out of it. I bought it just to resale. The truck hasn't been registured since 2003. That helps to account for the very low milage. (111700 orig)
I am selling it with a Affidavit In Lieu of Title, and a bill of sale. That is all you will need to registure it in any state or Canada.
The body is near perfect with no rust. The paint is about 90% good. The hood and roof shows some of the worst finish. Paint is missing from the roof, and the hood have some fadeing and has lost it shine. Most of the rest of the body is very good. Did I say NO RUST!
The tires are like new, and it has locking hubs.
It also has new front calapers and brake pads.
A brand new radiator.
Fresh oil change and new valve covers.
The only item not working that I've found is it doesn't put out heat, so likely the heater core is plugged.
It starts a bit cold and needs to be warmed up, but it really needs to have some miles put on it. (maybe the float adjusted)
The truck drives great. Nice and straight and seems to be very tight.
Overall I think it will make a great truck for someone and offer allot of fun and good looks.

Ford Mustang 50th anniversary edition brings in $170k
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Just the other day, we reported on the first Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat selling for a whopping $825,000 at auction. But impressive as that sum was, the Challenger wasn't the only sought-after modern muscle car to cross the Barrett-Jackson auction block in Las Vegas this past weekend. So did this rare Ford Mustang.
The last of 1,964 special-edition 50 Years Limited Edition pony cars sold for a princely $170,000, with proceeds benefiting the Edith and Benson Ford Heart & Vascular Institute, a branch of the Henry Ford Health System.
The pony car in question is based on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT and upgrades with a performance package and nearly every option on the book, along with a unique appearance package to set it apart in celebration of the Mustang's 50th anniversary. It's available in two exclusive shades - Wimbledon white or Kona blue - with either a manual or automatic transmission. Only 1,964 highly symbolic examples were to be built, and this was the last of them.

GM readying aluminum-body fullsize pickups
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ford's extensive use of aluminum in its 2015 F-150 is a big deal. A really big deal. Big enough, in fact, that General Motors is reportedly changing its fullsize pickup strategy. According to The Wall Street Journal, The General has locked in partnerships with Alcoa Inc. and Novelis Inc. - companies that will supply aluminum for the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks.
"Ford's introduction of the 2015 F-150 pickup truck was a game changer, and it's the first, not the last, conversion of this type," Novelis spokesperson Charles Belbin told the Journal. The switch to aluminum has allowed Ford to shave roughly 700 pounds off its fullsize truck's curb weight. And while official mileage ratings have not been announced, the weight loss should go a long way for improving efficiency, especially when combined other efficiency-minded improvements including better aerodynamics and new, turbocharged V6 engines.
Of course, aluminum-bodied cars are nothing new. But extensive use of aluminum in a major, best-selling product like the Ford F-150 is expected to kick off widespread use of this weight-saving material as availability rises and cost decreases. The WSJ reports that GM had originally explored the idea of moving to aluminum pickups back in 2008, but abandoned the idea due to cost concerns amid economic woes.
