FANTASTIC CLASSIC TRUCK THAT DEFINED A GENERATION. THIS TRUCK IS IN AMZING CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE. CLEAN AND STRAIGHT PANELS WITH NO BODY WORK. PAINT FINISH STILL HAS IMPRESSIVE SHINE. This truck has serious MUSCLE!

1977 Ford F-150 Ranger XLT 4WD with a short box, 4" Factory Lift, Edelbrock Performer Intake Manifold (4 barrel) Holley 750 Double pumper Carb, 86K miles, Stainless Headers going to Flow Master dual exhaust that SOUNDS AMAZING! The original owner ordered this truck direct from Ford in '77 with the 429 cu in engine, which is the same block as the 460, just a shorter stroke. 10,000 LB HEAVY DUTY TOW PACKAGE W/Step up bumper and trailer brake system mounted in cab.

Original Carpet and seats were worn excessively, so the first thing I did after I bought it from the original owner in Tacoma, Washington was replaced the carpet with brand new black cut pile, and replaced the cloth blue seat with black vinyl (looks and feels like new Leather). New wing mirrors. All improvements/restorations were done through LMC catalogs, so stock (or closest to OEM) products were used.

Also, the truck has over $2,000.00 in Dynamat, Dynapad, and Dynaliner installed under the carpet, seats, and on the firewall to reduce road noise/vibrations in the cab. Extra sheets of Dynamat Xtreme will be provided with truck sale.

All gauges work and function as they should. The heater core was just replaced as well as the Starter Solenoid, Power Steering pump and return lines, and washer motor pump. New seat belts (black to match new black upholstery). New gaskets on cab around doors & glass. Fender Flares matching existing paint. I've put $5000 into restorations in the past year, while maintaining the stock look.

The truck looks and feels like American Muscle... the engine creates huge power and beautiful sound. The only thing slowing this beautiful beast down, is perhaps the differential/gearing. The gear ratios are for pulling and torque, but with a little wrenching, this truck can easily generate over 500 HP at the rear wheel... My NHRA mechanic had me inline next to complete a custom build with forged aluminum pistons, and an EFI conversion... yet, I recently became a first time father and things like this just aren't practical for now : (

Please call with any questions, or email me. I can start it if the exhaust sound is something that gets your blood going like mine!

Buyer is responsible for taking delivery of the vehicle. Seller maintains the right to sell to private party locally within auction time. $2,000.00 USD deposit is required within 24 hours of auction ending, and must provide certified (bank/cashier's check) at time of pick up. Clear title and no maintenance issues whatsoever, yet, sale is AS IS.

Thank you for your time! Best of LUCK and Happy Bidding!

Shelby GT350R offers first mass-produced carbon fiber wheels

Fri, Jul 10 2015

In the world of race engineering, reducing total weight is good, but reducing unsprung weight is flippin' fantastic. That's the reason Ford is pushing the envelope in terms of technology for the Shelby GT350R's wheels. Joining the likes of Koenigsegg in the offering, Ford has teamed with Australian outfit Carbon Revolution to produce the CF rollers en masse for the first time. Destined for the hubs of the new Shelby GT350R, the new hoops weigh just 18 pounds each, versus the 33-lbs weight of a similar aluminum wheel. On top of slashing up to 60 pounds in unsprung weight, there's such a reduction in rotational inertia – 40 percent, versus aluminum wheels Â– that Ford actually has to recalibrate the magnetic ride control system and springs. Thanks to, we're guessing, scenes of crashed Formula One cars disintegrating and spewing shards of carbon fiber all over the track, Ford seems quite keen to do away with the idea that CF is strong, but brittle. The company conducted extensive shock testing, ramming a wheel into a curb at speed. According to the Blue Oval, the lightweight wheel allowed the suspension to respond so quickly that the impact was "greatly diminished," causing the tester to run the experiment again, thinking there'd been a mistake. After recording brake rotor temperatures of 900 degrees Celsius (over 1,650 degrees Fahrenheit, or well past the point that aluminum or magnesium would melt) during testing, Ford and Carbon Revolution actually redesigned the wheels to "a thermal standard more suitable for motorsports," by adding an "incredibly thin, nearly diamond-hard coating that reliably shields the resin from heat." The same process was used to protect engine turbine blades on the Space Shuttle. While the work by Ford and Carbon Revolution should make GT350R customers excited, the work being done here could have serious implications for performance cars in the future. That's the real takeaway here, and is something that should leave fans of all performance vehicles excited.

Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.

Bill Ford wins National Pond Hockey Championship with employees

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Who says executives aren't people? This past weekend, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company, and a group of employees trekked up to Eagle River, WI for a few games of pond hockey. Team Ford took part in the 2014 Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship, capturing its fifth title in the 50+ Tier 1 Division.
"It feels great to win," Ford, who plays on the team alongside other Ford employees, told the USA Hockey website. "It was fun to play [River Valley Pioneers] because they're great guys and we play them every year. We finally beat them, which we were due. It was a very clean game, a tough game."
The FoMoCo team managed to score seven goals to River Valley's two, and went undefeated in all five of its games during the tourney. Take a look below for the official press release on Team Ford's win.
