Super Cab project: 2.9 - 5 speed 134000 miles. Has not been driven in 5 years. Bought as a parts truck, it was in better shape than the truck we needed the parts for (my son wrecked his Ranger). Replaced blown engine and bad transmission with engine and transmission from an individual doing a V8 swap on his Ranger (his son had wrecked the Mustang donor). Seller stated engine had been rebuilt and currently had 50,000 on it when purchased. Did the swap and the Y-pipe bolts would not tighten up, went to Ford dealer and bought new ones, still wouldn't tighten. Dealer said they didn't have a clue. Family issues forced an abrupt halt on the truck. It has sat since. It does have a cracked windshield and one dent high on the passenger side of the bed (see photo). We did fire it with open exhaust, sounded fine. Summit Racing has a set of Headers with Y-pipe, I just never bought them. The tailgate is used up, comes with a new in the box tailgate. Also have extra engine parts and a hood, bumper, and grill. I didn't dig the engine parts out of the shed for pictures. Interior is dirty and needs a headliner installed. Transmission has not been filled with fluid, brakes will need to be gone through, gas tank drained and cleaned. Also installed a new slave cylinder when we did the swap. Has 1985 Mustang SVO wheels and tires on it, 1 wheel had a curb ding that a local shop said they could repair. Vehicle is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end listing early if it sells. Truck is not drivable, will need a winch to load. I have had good luck shipping with U-SHIP, shipping is the responsibility of buyer. Will load up all extra parts in truck prior to shipper coming to pick it up. Thank you

Ford F-450 claims best-in-class towing, company abandons practice of removing items to boost payload number
Tue, 02 Sep 2014The ongoing heavy-duty truck battle between Ford and Ram is showing no signs of slowing down. The Blue Oval is trying to remove at least one point of contention between the two brands by testing its 2015 F-450 Super Duty using the Society of Automotive Engineers J2807 towing standard, which Ram also uses. In the new evaluation, the F-450 is rated at a max towing capacity of 31,200 pounds. That's an identical amount as under Ford's own, previous test.
"We leave no doubt with customers that the F-450 pickup truck has best-in-class towing of 31,200 pounds - whether tested using our own internal towing standards or SAE J2807," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president for Global Product Development, in the company's release.
At the same time, Ford is also changing how it calculates the F-450's payload. Instead of using its minimum curb weight as before, the brand is now using the truck's base curb weight. The revision lowers the pickup's rating to 5,300 pounds, compared to 5,450 pounds previously. The company said in its announcement that the reason for this is "aligning its payload rating practices with other manufacturers to make it easier for customers to compare vehicles." General Motors made a similar switch for its pickups in August.

Ford books $2.6B pretax quarterly profit
Thu, 24 Jul 2014While its crosstown competitors at General Motors are smarting over a drastic drop in net income to $200 million in the second quarter, Ford has reason to celebrate. The Blue Oval has announced its own Q2 financial results, including a growing net income of $1.3 billion, a $78 million increase over last year. Pretax profits for the company reached $2.6 billion, up $44 million from 2013, but total revenue dropped slightly to $37.4 billion, down from $37.9 billion. Profits per share before one-time charges totaled 40 cents per share, beating Wall Street analysts' expectations of 36 cents a share.
Regionally, the Blue Oval performed strongly, as well. North America posted a record quarterly pre-tax profit of $2.4 billion, a $119 million increase. Europe also showed signs of turn around with its first profit in three years of $14 million after a loss of $306 million in Q2 2013. Ford is actually predicting profitability in the troubled region in 2015. Asia Pacific operations also performed well with $159 million in profits, up $29 million from last year. The only region where the business posted a loss was South America.
According to Automotive News, Ford also announced more precise plans about the changeover to build the aluminum-intensive 2015 F-150. In August, the Dearborn plant will shutdown for eight weeks to retool and its Kansas City plant will do the same next year.
