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 F-150 SVT Raptor sales jumping to new heights

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Ford can't seem to build F-150 SVT Raptors fast enough. The off-road-ready trucks have been one of the Blue Oval's most reliable sellers, with record sales in eight of the last 10 months and a 14-percent jump in 2013. That's impressive enough, considering that the least expensive Raptor starts at $44,000. Factor in the modded F-150's fuel economy (it's rated at 11 miles per gallon in the city and 16 on the highway) and a national average gas price, as of this writing, of $3.55 per gallon, and its success is as unlikely as Ford's home team, the Detroit Lions, winning the Super Bowl this year (sorry, Lions fans, we're just quoting the experts in Vegas...).
Yet for some reason, Raptors spend an average of just 15 days on dealer lots before being snapped up, which is a quarter of the 60-day industry average. According to Ford's truck group marketing manager, Doug Scott, it's capability that keeps the Raptor selling strong. "What's helping drive Raptor sales is that Raptor delivers unmatched off-road performance to our customers. Raptor is also proof of our commitment to offer a truck for every customer and continuously improving them to meet our customers' evolving needs."
To address the strong demand for Raptors, Ford will bump production from three trucks per hour to five. Not much, we agree. But building an extra 48 trucks per day, at most, seems like a prudent way of addressing demand without oversaturating what is ultimately a niche market. Check out the press release below for more.

Ford Mondeo with 1.5-liter EcoBoost debuts in China

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Does the car above, posing fancifully in white, look familiar? Well, it should. Although it wears Mondeo badges in the form you see above for the Chinese market - as it does in Europe - the car is basically the same thing sold in the US as the Ford Fusion. Of course, it's what's under that shapely skin that counts.
Ford has chosen the Shanghai Motor Show as the venue with which to unveil its 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine. We'd heard about the engine before, but now we have a few performance estimates to share: 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet).
Those numbers pretty much confirm previous rumors indicating about 177 in each category, and it's right on par with what Ford's own 1.6-liter EcoBoost produces. Ford is claiming best-in-class fuel economy as well, but no specific figures have yet been provided. In any case, we'll surely have all the data soon enough, as the 1.5-liter mill is destined for the US Fusion in 2014.

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.
