1973 73 Ford F-100 Ranger 4 Wheel Drive 4x4 Longbed Arizona Rust Free Truck on 2040-cars
Prescott Valley, Arizona, United States

1973 F-100 Ranger 4 wheel drive truck. Originally purchased in Berkley CA. has spent most of its life in AZ. I bought this truck with the intent of returning it to a nice driver since I was familiar with its past. I knew one of its previous owners. I just have too many trucks and projects so its got to go. The original engine was a 360. Previous owner claims to have put a 390 crank and rods in it approx. 35,000 miles ago. I cannot verify this and have no idea what other work may have been done at that time. The 2bbl intake was changed to iron 4bbl intake. I recently put an Edelbrock carb on it that was rebuilt about a year ago and used on one of my Chevys. It has been jetted for this elevation and may retuning else where. It has an automatic transmission that shifts well. NP 205 transfer case that shifts well also. High pinion Dana 44 front axle with power drum brakes and power steering. Rear is a 9" with Nodular third member and Trac Loc. Ratio is 3:50. I just installed good used set of chrome spoke wheels and 33" tires. I believe the camper shell and extra fuel tank were dealer installed items when purchased new. Truck also has fact A/C which actually works. I think it needs charged some, its not real cold. A Crane Fireball electronic ignition was also installed by previous owner. Since my purchase I have replaced the brake master cyl. ign. switch carburetor and tires and wheels. All glass is good. Body is mostly straight except where pictured. Body is completely rust free as far as I can tell. No rust found. Original paint is poor from sitting under a tree. Inside of the bed is exceptional for an old pickup with only a few dents and surface rust. Interior is fair. Drivers side of the seat is damaged. Dash pad has some cracks but has a cover on it. Door panels aren't too bad but has a few screws hold them on instead of clips. All gauges seem to work except for oil pressure but an after market gauge has been installed. Engine runs well and has decent power. I haven't noticed any smoke. Runs cool, 60-80psi oil pressure. Great restoration or good driver. I believe the 88779 miles to be correct and original but cannot verify that. Note: I have the missing windshield trim and is included.

Need for Speed movie casts Mustang in hero car role
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Dreamworks Studios, Electronic Arts and Ford Motor Company announced today that the Ford Mustang will play the lead hero car role in the upcoming Need for Speed movie, slated to hit theaters next February. Of course, the Mustang didn't audition for the role like we imagine the film's star, Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad fame, might have. Rather, Ford and Dreamworks struck a partnership deal that meant the Mustang could skip the casting couch. The deal will also see the film's universe populated with other Ford products (gratuitously so, we're guessing), and the automaker will also help the studio promote the video-game-turned-movie next year.
The hero car in question is a special one-off Mustang created by Ford that is making its debut at the E3 video game trade show as we speak. Powered by a supercharged V8 and apparently based on the Shelby GT500, the car's been modified with a widebody kit, 22-inch wheels, larger air intakes and twin hood nostrils. Ford also provided the film's production with an F-450 truck that will be called "The Beast" in the film's story, and a second Mustang to be used during filming as a camera car.
The Mustang's movie career is really taking off, with news of its Need For Speed casting closely following last week's release of the trailer for Getaway, a movie coming out in August that stars Ethan Hawke, Selena Gomez and another Shelby GT500. In addition to Aaron Paul and a modified Mustang, the Need For Speed movie also stars Michael Keaton (cop, we're guessing) and Dominic Cooper (villain, we're guessing), and is directed by Scott Waugh, who directed the Navy SEAL film Act of Valor in 2012.

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake
Thu, 08 May 2014Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.
