For Sale By:owner
Engine:302
Drive Type: Rear
Make: Ford
Mileage: 88,223
Model: F-100
Trim: Ranger XLT
Here is a all original truck that I purchased from the original family. Practically a one owner vehicle purchased brand new in Georgia. I was told the truck sat mostly covered up until its later days. And I was told that the truck had 88,223 original miles! Factory installed 302 with a 3 speed manual transmission. I could not find any rust in the truck except for the typical passenger side inner fender where the battery sits, and under the hood on the passenger side only. You can not see the rust in the hood when hood is closed. Absolutely no rust in the bed, floors, mounts etc.. all looks great. The truck has been sitting for 4 years not driven due to previous owner wanting to update engine a little with a 4 bb carb and intake. He got started with putting brand new 302 heads, purchasing aluminum intake and new rebuilt holley carb and full gasket set and then lost interest. The heads are bolted down and look completely done only lacking to install intake, carb , valve covers, etc.. I do have all these parts along with the original intake and carb if you want to put back to original. Oil looks good and motor does turn over. I have the intake and carb just sitting on top of the engine currently. I truly believe a good weekend on this truck and you will be driving again. All chrome is present and intact, along with all the interior. The seat belts still have the original wrapper on seat belts from the factory. Carpet is actually still in good shape just needs to be cleaned . This is a extremely nice truck that has very little rust to speak of. If your looking for a solid truck to start with and a really small project, this is the one for you. Selling at a no reserve so bid to win and good luck!

Martini Mustang is a 'what if moment' gone right
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Feast your eyes on a masterpiece. This is Steve Strope's Ford Mustang in the classic fastback bodystyle, and as you'll notice, it sports the signature colors of Martini Racing, a livery that's as legendary as any Gulf Racing-styled car. But the red, white and blues of the Martini stripe down this Mustang's middle tell only a very small part of the story, in the latest video from Petrolicious.
What would you guess is under the hood? A 289-cubic-inch V8? Maybe a 302, or some absurd Ford crate engine? Maybe Strope went all Tokyo Drift - he's actually responsible for the "Hammer" Plymouth Satellite driven by Vin Diesel at the end of the movie - and found an RB26DETT to drop into the pony car? You'd be wrong on all counts.
This mad, mad man somehow finagled a Ford-Lotus engine from a 1966 Indianapolis 500 car into the Mustang's engine bay. Yes, a Mustang with an engine designed for a 160-mile-per-hour, open-wheel racecar. That's like someone in 40 years dropping McLaren's 2.4-liter V8 from the MP4-28 into a Scion FR-S. It'd just make a monster.
Ford shows off V8-powered Ranger headed to Dakar Rally
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Avert your eyes now if you're jealous that the global version of the Ford Ranger is not offered in the US. Ford's midsize pickup is being tuned up to take on the 2014 Dakar Rally, and the result is a truck that is probably even cooler than any F-150 SVT Raptor we've ever seen in the States. Ford is actually building two versions of the truck for Dakar, which will run from January 5 through January 18, covering more than 5,000 miles from Argentina to Chile.
Starting with a fully composite body and a 5.0-liter V8 plucked from a Mustang, nearly every aspect of the trucks have been purpose built to take on the grueling race. This includes things like the six-speed sequential gearbox, liquid-cooled rear brakes and the 132-gallon fuel tank. As proof that Dakar is more about endurance than speed, the engines used in these race trucks will be limited to around 350 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, and will max out at a top speed of just 105 miles per hour. Scroll down for Ford's official press release offering more information about the trucks and teams being prepped for Dakar.
2015 Ford Mustang Convertible shown on Twitter [UPDATE w/video]
Thu, 05 Dec 2013It hasn't yet been 12 hours since the hotly anticipated 2015 Ford Mustang has been let out into public view. After a series of evocative leaks over the course of the last days, we brought you a full deep dive of the sixth-generation pony car at the dawning of today. And yet, here we are rushing to bring you news of a new Mustang variant, already.
Be it part of a plan to keep the Mustang fervor at full boil, or a misunderstood email somewhere in the chain of command, Ford UK has unceremoniously tweeted a picture of the 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible. For a newly global Mustang, getting our first look at the droptop from the convertible-crazy British does make some amount of sense.
As for details, well, you're looking at them. Brandon Turkus reported yesterday that the Mustang 'vert would make use of a fully electric convertible mechanism, and that it would be of fabric construction rather than some kind of retractable hardtop. We see here that the fabric part is clearly true, and it does look as though Ford may still be employing the same kind of manually attached tonneau cover that exists right now. Of course, our view from this angle isn't great, and the particulars are still up in the air.
