1978 Ford F100 with Short step side bed. Rebuilt engine and transmission. Tranny is a Borg Warner T-10 Built proof 4 speed with Granny Gear. Built for mudding pulling and low end torque. Engine is a Ford 351M bored 40 over with Keith black coated flat top pistons. The connecting rods are eagle h beam - all the nuts and bolt are replaced with ARP bolts crank shaft is also eagle. Engine is converted from points to HEI. Carb is a Holley Carb with manual choke. This engine delivers an enormous amount of low end torque.

Truck was restored in the early 90s, frame has no rust - and some rust is now visible on the cab. Truck has custom dual chrome stacks and add quite the sound. Vehicle is definitely and attention grabber. The bed is a wooden floor and just replaced the carpet inside the cab. The truck is lifted pretty high 3" body 6" suspension and sets on 33x12.5x15s. Truck has custom LED taillights. Lastly the truck has powertrax lock-right lockers in both axles. This thing will not let you down in a tight spot. I personally do not take this truck mudding, but have not got stuck yet in fields (wet/dry) or any other rougher terrain.

May consider Partial trade offers. I am mainly looking for a Honda Foreman ATV with EPS (Electronic Shift) with or with out trailer.

The Truck also has brand new Tires (Less than 100 Mi), new Clutch and TOB from Jegs, and large drop pitman arm.  External gauges added for water temp and RPM


Shipping, Title and Mileage:
Title was sent as Mileage inaccurate, however the gauge does work and shows in the 50k range.  Title is clean not rebuilt but shows mileage inaccurate.  Title is an Ohio title.  Shipping and title transfer will need to be arranged by buyer local pick up or shipped. Please keep in mind it is a lifted vehicle when discussing shipping options.

More pictures will be available by request.  This is not a show room vehicle, but would be very easy to get it to that point.

Ford Tourneo ready for duty in Connect, Courier and Custom flavors [w/videos]

Wed, 06 Mar 2013

Ford was relatively quiet at the Geneva Motor Show, but it did take the opportunity to roll out its new family of Tourneo vans: the Courier, Connect, Grand Connect and Custom. As the passenger version of the Transit cargo vans, the new range of Tourneo models vary from the B-segment Courier up to the fullsize Custom. The Connect and Grand Connect are based on the redesigned 2014 Ford Transit Connect.
With an overall length just three inches longer than the Fiesta hatchback, the Tourneo Courier seats four to five passengers, and it offers a choice of three engines: the 1.0-liter EcoBoost or two small diesels. Like the 2014 Transit Connect was saw in Paris last year, the Tourneo Connect comes in a five-seat configuration while the Grand Connect can seat seven. Finally, the Tourneo Custom seats up to nine passengers, and it is available in two lengths up to 210 inches long putting it just six inches shorter than a standard-length E-Series van and about a foot longer than the Explorer.

Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod

Tue, 21 Oct 2014

Woodie wagons were a major part of surfing culture in the 1960s, offering coastal style and a ton of room, and they even earned a mention in the Beach Boys' classic song Surfin' Safari. This week, Jay Leno's Garage takes a look at two modern, restomodded examples of these style icons.
Unlike a lot of restomods, builder Scott Bonowski keeps these wagons looking almost completely stock on the outside, and all of the upgrades are hidden underneath the timber. You can't tell by looking at it, but the '37 Woodie (pictured above) has independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes and a Ford 5.0-liter V8 under the hood.
Beyond the mechanical aspect, the craftsmanship into the wood is astounding. Bonowski claims there are between 30 and 50 coats of varnish on this wagon. It makes these woodies as much of a piece of fine furniture as a vehicle to drive.

DoJ fines Japanese parts firms $740M in massive automotive price-fixing scandal

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Nine Japanese suppliers have pleaded guilty in US court over charges of price fixing in the automotive parts industry, resulting in the Department of Justice doling out a total of $740 million of fines, according to a report from Bloomberg. The scandal, which has resulted in General Motors, Ford, Toyota and Chrysler spending up to $5 billion on inflated parts and driving up prices on 25 million vehicles has sent the DoJ hustling into investigations. "The conduct this investigation uncovered involved more than a dozen separate conspiracies aimed at the U.S. economy," Attorney General Eric Holder (pictured above) said during yesterday's press conference.
As the investigation stands, the DoJ has issued $1.6 billion in fines against 20 companies and 21 individual executives, with 17 of the execs headed to prison. Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Hammond said, "The breadth of the conspiracies brought to light today are as egregious as they are pervasive. They involve more than a dozen separate conspiracies operating independently but all sharing in common that they targeted US automotive manufacturers."
Big-name suppliers indicted in the investigation include Mitsubishi Electric, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi Automotive and Mitsuba Corporation. A list of fines and other corporations named in the investigation is available at Bloomberg.
