Up for sale is one RARE 1979 F350 4X4

Located in Moab, UT

NO RESERVE! HIGHEST BID GETS THE TRUCK!

This is a factory 1979 F350 regular cab truck with a all steel flatbed. The truck retains it's factory drive train including the very desirable High Pinion Dana 60 front axle (this axle alone is worth $1000-1500). It has 410 gears with a locker in the rear. The truck has the factory manual 4 speed transmission and NP205 transfercase. It just passed Utah's state safety inspection a couple of weeks ago and is current on it's registration. Clear and clean title in hand with utah license plates and registration.

This drivetrain set up is very desirable. If you add lift springs to this truck you can run BIG tires reliably on the stock drivetrain without further modification.

The GOOD: Truck starts every time and can be driven anywhere. 4WD works great. Has engine block heater for cold weather. Tires and not new, but not needing replaced either. Set up for bumper or gooseneck towing. No visible rust showing. Dual fuel tanks are functional.

The BAD: Body has dents, dings and needs TLC. Interior is typical for a 1979 Ford - Dash cover is cracked from the sun, bench seat is saggy in the drivers position, speedometer works on and off, e-brake bracket needs to be reattached (but e-brake is otherwise functional), heater doesn't work, and carpet was replaced by some household shag carpet. Front tank could use a filler hose replacement. Brakes pull slightly to the left when applied. Transmission doesn't down shift into 3rd without priming it by trying to put it into 2nd (but it has been that way for a long long time). Drivers door shuts funny and could use a new hinge, but still latches and opens fine. The rear passenger mudflap flew off on the highway after I took the pictures. I am sure there is something I might be forgetting, but like I said - it just passed the Utah state safety inspection and is a registered driver.

THE BOTTOM LINE: If you are interested in this truck, you likely know that it is a rare truck with a very desirable drivetrain. It runs great, will go anywhere, and is ready to tackle any job you throw at it.

I wanted to keep this truck around because it is a great work truck, but I have to sell to fund another project I am working on. If you have questions feel free to contact me and I will respond as soon as possible.

Located in beautiful Moab, UT. Local pickup or buyer arranged shipping only. Cashier's check/money order/personal check if shipping or cash in person only. Buy must wait for personal checks to clear before the vehicle will be released.

Plan a trip for Easter Jeep Safari in Moab to pick this truck up!

Feel free to Call or Text me at (916) 220-3857. I don't respond to calls Friday night to Saturday night sundown.

Your official Ford Transit specs are here, $29,565* to start

Wed, 04 Jun 2014

Ford has released the full list of pricing and specs on its new Transit, the replacement for the long-lived E-Series cargo van. Prices are set to start at $29,565 and can increase rapidly from there, depending on length, engine and wheelbase, among other options.
Let's talk first about those new engines. The base is the familiar 3.7-liter, naturally aspirated V6. It boasts 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque and can return up to 14 miles per gallon in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. This engine can also be adapted to run on LPG or compressed natural gas. Of course, there are better alternatives, for a price, the first of which is Ford's well-received, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. It packs 310 hp and a best-in-class 400 lb-ft of torque (available at just 2,500 rpm) while matching the naturally aspirated engine in both city and highway fuel economy.
Then, there's the diesel. With a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel mill at its disposal, the Transit generates 350 lb-ft between 1,500 and 2,500 rpm, along with 185 hp. This engine hasn't been rated by the EPA, although we'd be really, really surprised if it didn't handily best either of the gas-powered engines in fuel efficiency. A six-speed automatic is standard, regardless of engine.

Ford E-Series chassis cabs and cutaways to survive mass Transit onslaught

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

In March 2013, Ford announced we'd be getting chassis cab and cutaway versions of the Transit. Since incoming Transit vans will soon be rolling over the grave of the E-Series van, it was assumed that all E-Series models would go six feet under as well. According to a report from PickupTrucks.com, however, that's not the case, the report claiming that the highly modifiable E-350 and E-450 chassis cab and cutaway versions will continue being produced in Avon Lake, Ohio "at least until 2020."
Being decades old, the be-cabbed E-Series platform has found its way under an army of heavy-duty shuttle buses, work truck and ambulances. Ford spokeswoman Jessica Enoch verified the production horizon, telling Autoblog that the particular E-Series configuration "are a higher GVWR than the Transit chassis cab and cutaway (available this summer), which is more Class 2 and a new segment for us." So there you have it.
