Hudson, Florida, United States
I am the 2nd. owner, I flew to OK. from FL. over 25 yrs. ago and drove it back to Fl., it had aprox. 60K on it, it now has 90K orig. miles. I sanded the orig. Ford paint off of it MYSELF, it had never been repainted, I have a book of pic's to show all the work I've done on it. I also have a log book with all part #'s and where I bought the parts. I put in all new glass, still all in perfect shape, I painted it over 20 yrs. ago, it's not a SHOW paint job, it is showing it's age, but a VERY good driver, I still clean it up and take it to local car shows, it draws a lot of lookers, they all ask if I made it a 4X4, it is the 1st. yr. for a FACTORY 4X4, there is a very few Ford 4X4's before 1959, but they are NOT Factory built. The truck sit for over 5 yrs. in my garage, while I was busy with the 53 COE in the pic's, I pulled it out and went thru all the brakes, wheel cyl's, master cyl., clutch master cyl., the clutch slave cyl., all new tires, oil change, this was all done about 1 yr. ago and I've been driving it weekly, the A/C just quit a few weeks ago, it is an aftermarket under dash unit, I put in all new hoses, new dryer & expansion valve, it's cooling fine, no overheating problem with the A/C running, even at idle in heavy traffic, the truck has NO history of over heating, even towing with it. I used it as an everyday driver for many yrs. and in my business towing boats, I had my own boats sales & service, I've towed around 6-7K lbs many times, it will pull in 4th gear as low as 15 MPH when towing. I did change out the pts. for an elec. setup, no more pts. to adjust. The truck runs GREAT, shifts fine, the 4 wheel drive works fine, it has Warn hubs on it. There is few things that the truck needs, it's NOT perfect, the front springs have sagged a little, there is a pic. of the bump stop close to the springs, driving on paved roads it's OK, but hard bumps it will bottom out on the stops, I have NEVER run the truck OFFROAD, it has never been in the mud or sand, to much work in it for that, and I'm past that now, I'm over 60 yrs. old, LOL If you want to make it a SHOW truck, then you will want to repaint it. I would drive it anywhere, in the pic's, you will see it at an idle, 40psi oil pressure. In the past I have driven it on a 2K mile trip, no problems at all. It is not fast, it has all the orig. running gear under it, I drive it around 55-60 mph, it does fine. I really think you will not find a better orig. Ford 4X4 anywhere, it does not have power steering or power brakes, when towing you'll wish it had disc brakes, I've thought about putting disc on it many times, but never did, when I 1st. bought it, I was planning a street rod, big 460, later model running gear-etc., but after driving it to Fl. from Ok., it was just to darn GOOD a truck to chop it up, I would like to see it stay orig. I want a buyer to be happy with it, I really think you should make to trip to Fl. to see it, I live north west of Tampa, that would be the closest to fly into if you wanted to see it or drive it home. I would drive it to the airport so you could see it, I would even drive it to it's new home if you pay my airfare back to Fl. I can also help arrange overseas shipping if needed, I can deliver to Fl. ports for shipping. A $500.00 dep. with Pay-Pal with in 48 hrs. will be OK, CASH or wire transfer, any type of check, money order-etc., I will wait 30 DAYS for it to clear before releasing the truck, I do have a clear title in my name. The truck is also listed local, so if it sells local then I will take down this posting. If you buy it and pay the dep. thru Pay-Pal and you don't want it after seeing it, then I will refund your dep. I do have many pic's, you can e-mail me for more if you want, my ph. # 727 869 7847

5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals
Sun, Mar 3 2024EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment. But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles.

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
Ford picks up new Ranger overseas [w/video+poll]
Tue, Mar 24 2015The new Ford F-150 is lighter and more efficient than the model it replaced, but if it's a smaller Ford pickup that you really wanted, you're going to have to pack your bags. Because while Dearborn stopped selling the Ranger in North America years ago, it still offers one in markets overseas. And it's just rolled out a refreshed model at the 2015 Bangkok Motor Show in Thailand. Following the reveal of the new Everest sport-ute with which it shares its chassis, the refreshed Ranger pickup benefits from revised sheetmetal, powertrain and equipment throughout. The changes are punctuated by a front end with a more rugged-looking grille, a more sculpted hood and projector headlamps. The interior has been updated as well, not only in terms of style but equipment as well, with an eight-inch touchscreen display in the dashboard running Sync 2 and dual TFT displays flanking the speedo in the instrument cluster. Under the hood, buyers will be able to choose between a carryover 2.5-liter inline four with 163 horsepower and 166 pound-feet of torque that's the sole gasoline option or one of two diesel options: a 2.2-liter four now producing 158 hp and 284 lb-ft, or a 3.2-liter inline-five with 197 hp and 347 lb-ft. The diesel engines are more efficient than before with available stop/start engine management, and offer what Ford says is class-leading towing capability. Six-speed automatic or manual gearboxes transmit the power to the road through either the rear wheels or all four. Production will continue in Thailand for the Asia Pacific Market, South Africa for Africa and Europe, and in Argentina for Latin America. All told the new Ranger will be offered in 180 markets, around the world but for better or worse, ours won't be one of them. This content is hosted by a third party.
