1978 Ford F-150 Ranger

Not sure of actual mileage

Engine is a 460 beast with Edelbrock intake and carb (1405 I think) with spacer. Put those on recently. 
Newly installed refurbished distributor. New cap, rotor, plugs, and wires.
4x4 with 4 low, manual transmission; 4 speed with a granny gear
Lifted, short bed, NO RUST! (Okay, well a bit of surface rust in the bed:) Front bumper ready for a winch.
38" tires with 4.88 lockers with Warn locking hubs

Sound system hits pretty hard and I have some other wheels I can throw in as well as some other big tires (not pictured). 

This thing is a monster.

Interior: no carpet, crack in the dash, newish seat.  Cracked windshield.  Engine:  strong, sounds good.  I've had a bit of trouble with oil seeping up from the dip stick tube.  Why they made those simple press in tubes, I'm not sure, but I will be sealing that up.  Electrical is fine.  The clearance lights don't work, however.  I was going to replace them, but haven't gotten around to it.  About 50 bucks.  4 wheel drive works great but I've spotted a bit of oil on the front u-joint and suspect there may be a slight leak in the transfer case.  Hasn't given me any problems.  Small leak and the transfer case is easy enough to access to refill.  Speedometer jumps sometimes.  I suspect the spedo drive will need to be replaced.  Not sure how accurate it is anyhow, because of the larger tires.

Roush getting back into sport compact business with Focus ST mods [w/video]

Wed, 29 May 2013

Roush Performance offers a whole raft of parts for folks looking to tune their Ford Mustang and F-150 models, and now Focus owners can start getting in on the hotted-up action, too. Owners of the 2012-13 Focus and 2013 Focus ST can now get a Roush cold-air intake system, and ST owners can also opt for a high-performance cat-back exhaust.
Although all of these components are now available for order, the parts will ship sometime in July; no word yet on pricing. Down the road, Roush will also offer styling upgrades for the Focus as well as performance tuning upgrades such as engine controller, suspension, wheels and tires. Scroll down for a quick video of what the Focus ST exhaust sounds like, as well as a Roush press release.

2015 Ford Mustang [w/videos]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013



It'd be unwise to bet against the sixth generation of this legendary nameplate.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is assuredly the most anticipated new vehicle of the year. The redesigned Pony Car has been the subject of frantic gossiping and covert spy photos covering everything from the way it looks to the tech it will include, its performance, mechanicals and a bevy of other aspects of Ford's performance icon.

Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years

Wed, 01 May 2013

While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."
