!965 Ford 1 Ton F-350 2nd Owner on 2040-cars
Palisade, Colorado, United States
I`ve had this workhorse 22 years. It mostly sat around or hauled light loads.since 1992. Recently sent the carb out for reman (Autolite 1100) Fuel pump & filter, 180 deg thermostat & iron housing, Water pump, Radiator hose & cap, heater hoses, battery, ignition key & lock, new clutch spring, cleaned gastank & line. Topped off tranny, tires & differential. Greased the driveline ball joints & kingpins. Fresh oil change & fram filter. restored oilbath air cleaner. The radiator was replaced with an exact replacement from Modine (oem supplier I`m told) back in the 90`s and it remains in excellent undamaged condition. Can`t call it new, but it sure looks it.
There`s no pumping the gas pedal or choking/ unchoking it, You just barely flick the key & it starts & purrs. It`s jetted & set for 5000 feet altitude. Motor is a 150 horse 240 cubic inch straight 6. Runs excellently. Trans is a New Process np435 4 speed with a super low granny gear. Differential is a Dana 70 that`s geared at I believe a 5.87:1 ratio so top end is mid to upper 50`s mph range while low end pulling power is impressive. 7.50x 16 wheels & tires, 7 of `em. The 9 ft flatbed with header & sides was made in December `64 so I`m sure it`s been on it since day one. It has factory overload springs and can haul way more than a ton. Carb & engine block still have their original tags. I watch ebay for trucks like these and see maybe 3 if that, in any given year. So either they`re rare or the people that have `em aren`t parting with them. They hardly ever come up for sale. Unlike the 1/2 & 3/4 ton pickups this one has the large inner fenders and wheel well openings and the battery compartment under the foor. You see this on factory 4wd & one ton trucks only. The upholstery needs repadded & a new cover, headliners not great, could use a windshield & rubber mounting. But the body looks to be rust free. I have a free & clear Colorado title in hand. I named her "Betty Ford" because she`s a tough ol` gal. Neither Betty is any kind of lightweight & this one just came out of rehab !

Leno talks racing with NASCAR racer Joey Logano
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.
Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp
Mon, 17 Nov 2014
Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.
2015 Ford Focus sedan shows its fresh face in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014That handsome fellow you see above is the 2015 Ford Focus sedan. We liked the looks of the 2014 Focus, and the updates for 2015 only improve things to our eyes, with the adoption of the Aston Martin-inspired grille that has been permeating Ford's lineup these last few years. Sweeping, slightly bulbous headlamps join a revised, more demure lower grille opening to round out the styling updates up front. The rest of the car's look is just slightly massaged, including new taillamp clusters that look much like they did last year.
New for 2015 is the availability of Ford's 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. There's also a new SE Sport Package that adds more aggressive suspension tuning, paddle shifters (when equipped with Ford's six-speed dual-clutch automatic) and a few body kit bits and pieces. Rounding out the mechanical changes are an updated electronic steering rack that promises better feel, suspension tweaks to make the ride more comfortable and some software updates designed to make the dual-clutch gearbox better behave itself.
In addition, inside there are a few interior upgrades, as well as some added comfort and safety tech that includes available blind-spot detection and lane-keeping assist, along with other more incremental changes that all add up to a better vehicle. We suggest you check out the official press release below for all the details, but not before scrolling through our image gallery of live shots above.
