Here is an awesome built 1973 F100 4x4 short bed
The truck was completely rebuilt about 9 yrs ago and still shows incredibly well
This truck was given a very large suspension lift in the front end and the work was very well done, it drives exceptionally well much better than your stock ford suspension and rides and drives more like a newer truck.
The engine is a 390 and it runs very well I was told the engine was rebuilt when the truck was restored. It has a cam and headers so it has a little extra juice over stock.
The transmission is a C6 with a B&M shifter, the shifts are very smooth you can also slap the gears if you want
The interior was updated and still looks really good the seat and headliner match and are a durable broadcloth, the carpet is like new and the dash and the rest of the interior was painted to match the them of the truck and still looks good. There is a little fading of the paint that was used on the interior door panels but they are still in great shape.
All guges work except the original water temp gauge but there is a new temp gauge that works great. There is also aftermarket oil pressure gauges and tachometer that work well. The other original guages work as they should.
The body on this truck is in great shape there is a small dent on the drivers door that did not even chip the paint and a few spot where the paint has begun to chip off, the paint on the truck overall i would rate a 7 which is still very good for a daily driver (which this truck is) however if you wanted a show truck ready body then a little bit of body work and paint on this one and you are on your way.
The bed-liner in the back looks like new
The wheels are like new and un-scuffed
The tires have less than 1500 miles on them!!! they are 35 x 12.50 and look great on the truck
This is an awesome example of the f100 4x4 shortbed and they are incredibly hard to find as i am sure you know, this truck is ready to be driven and is great fun to drive
The reserve on this truck is very low so bid with confidence.
Truck was recently moved from Wyoming so it has a clear Wyoming title but is currently located here in Grand Junction

Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum
Mon, 27 Jan 2014With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.
Ford, Stellantis workers join those at GM in ratifying contract that ended UAW strikes
Mon, Nov 20 2023DETROIT — The United Auto Workers union overwhelmingly ratified new contracts with Ford and Stellantis, that along with a similar deal with General Motors will raise pay across the industry, force automakers to absorb higher costs and help reshape the auto business as it shifts away from gasoline-fueled vehicles. Workers at Stellantis, the maker of Jeep, Dodge and Ram vehicles, voted 68.8% in favor of the deal. Their approval brought to a close a contentious labor dispute that included name-calling and a series of punishing strikes that imposed high costs on the companies and led to significant gains in pay and benefits for UAW workers. The deal at Stellantis passed by a roughly 10,000 vote margin, with ballot counts ending Saturday afternoon. Workers at Ford voted 69.3% in favor of the pact, which passed with nearly a 15,000-vote margin in balloting that ended early Saturday. Earlier this week, GM workers narrowly approved a similar contract. The agreements, which run through April 2028, will end contentious talks that began last summer and led to six-week-long strikes at all three automakers. Shawn Fain, the pugnacious new UAW leader, had branded the companies enemies of the UAW who were led by overpaid CEOs, declaring the days of union cooperation with the automakers were over. After summerlong negotiations failed to produce a deal, Fain kicked off strikes on Sept. 15 at one assembly plant at each company. The union later extended the strike to parts warehouses and other factories to try to intensify pressure on the automakers until tentative agreements were reached late in October. The new contract agreements were widely seen as a victory for the UAW. The companies agreed to dramatically raise pay for top-scale assembly plant workers, with increases and cost-of-living adjustments that would translate into 33% wage gains. Top assembly plant workers are to receive immediate 11% raises and will earn roughly $42 an hour when the contracts expire in April of 2028. Under the agreements, the automakers also ended many of the multiple tiers of wages they had used to pay different workers. They also agreed in principle to bring new electric-vehicle battery plants into the national union contract. This provision will give the UAW an opportunity to unionize the EV battery plants plants, which will represent a rising share of industry jobs in the years ahead.
How the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor became a reality
Wed, 01 May 2013The camouflaged Ford F-150 SVT Raptor prototype captured above blazing its way across the desert during a test run left company engineers giggling in amazement, reveals Jamal Hameedi in a new Autoweek video. Ford's global performance vehicle chief engineer, accompanied by senior exterior designer Bruce Williams, sat down with the publication to discuss the concept and development of the automaker's super off-road F-150.
Designing a high-performance pickup in 2008, right when the cost of gasoline was going through the roof, seemed insane at the time, but the team pushed forward with the innovative vehicle regardless. The interview includes plenty of Ford B-roll footage as visual candy, and the conversations include discussions about exterior design, ride comfort, anti-lock brake tuning, suspension engineering, weight reduction and why it was necessary to make the Raptor visually different than Ford's standard F-150. The model's origin story is very interesting, and you can learn more about it by watching the video below.
