GEORGIA PEACH!!!!!

 

SOLID SOUTHERN V-8 SHORT BED TRUCK….PERFECT TO MAKE A STREET ROD/CRUISER!!!!

 

1968 FORD F-100 RANGER

SHORT BED

 

Truck sold new in Blue Ridge, Georgia and was owned by the same family until December 2013 (45 years).

 

Original unrestored 1968 Ford F100 Ranger in great condition. Truck has 113,134 miles on original 360 2bbl v-8 and automatic transmission. Engine runs great, and transmission shifts well.

 

Truck has recent tune up including rebuilt carb, points and condenser, plugs and wires. Truck also has new battery and 4 new tires. Body is in great shape - body panels are straight and fit well. Doors function wonderfully and shut with a solid 'click'. Bed is solid with some light surface rust.

 

There is some damage to driver front hood/headlight bezel/fender where owner ran into a column while parking in their garage ...what a shame because the rest of the truck is amazingly straight.

 

Rust: the cab support at the rear of the cab (drivers side) has some rust, as do the cab corners behind the lower body trim.

 

Steering is tight, and truck cruises straight down the road, even when you take your hand off the wheel.

 

Interior is complete and in good shape for its age. Seat cover is torn on drivers side, carpet is 45 years old. Visors and Headliner are in good shape.

 

Original Radio still in place. Dash pad has crack in middle. Steering wheel is almost perfect - has 1 small crack at base of the horn ring.

 

Dome light still works when you open the door, so does the bed light! Gas gauge not currently working. Has exhaust leak on passenger side.

 

Truck was built in January 1968 at Ontario, Canada and sent to Atlanta, Georgia (DSO);

 the factory color was Harbor Blue.

 

This 1968 Ford Truck has numbers matching motor (360 V-8) and 3 speed automatic transmission.  The truck came with manual steering and manual brakes.  The undercarriage is in good shape, surface rust only.  The truck has been in northwest Georgia its whole life.

 

This truck is an excellent candidate for a customized truck that needs little body work and little mechanical work.

 

Please ask any questions for more information and if needed, more pictures.  This is a 45 year old truck that has never been restored.  It has very solid original sheet metal.  The paint has faded a good bit, but the truck is very straight and has great gaps.

 

Inspections are welcome, just give me a call or email!

Watch this lead sled go rallying in Finland

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Custom cars generally fit into neat little boxes in terms of how they are used. For example, you're unlikely to see a modded Corvette going rock crawling; it's just not what it's made for (though we bet it'd look awesome, for a minute). In the same way, chopped, channeled and customized '50s hot rods aren't really meant to go racing. They look great and go fast, but they are generally more cruisers than sports cars.
However, if this video is any indication, the people of Finland don't adhere in these stereotypes, because this rodder is happy to play in the dirt with his lead sled.
According to the video, the driver is a member of the Ford-Freak Club of Finland, and he clearly knows how to have some fun. Possibly inspired by his country's great rally drivers, he gets the tail way out going around this gently curving gravel track. The stunt is somewhat reminiscent of the stock cars races on the sand at Daytona Beach, and this is probably close to what it sounded like too. Scroll down to watch a very cool Finn getting his hot rod a little dirty.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

Ford lowers MPG ratings on six vehicles

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Ford has announced that it will be lowering the fuel economy ratings on a number of its 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles after an error was discovered in the company's internal testing data. The EPA has been notified.
Worryingly for Ford, the vast majority of the vehicles affected are hybrids, including the C-Max, Fusion and MKZ in both hybrid and plug-in varieties (where applicable). Also covered as part of the rerating is the entire lineup of 2014 Fiesta engines, with the exception of the ST, including the turbocharged, three-cylinder EcoBoost.
The C-Max was originally rated at 47/47/47 mpg, but dropped to 43/45/40 last year and now to 40/42/37.
