This auction is for a 2001 Ford Ranger 4X4. I am selling this as a project because the frame needs repaired. If you are not comfortable with fixing or having something like this fixed please don't bid. The reason I got a hold of this truck is that I do body work for a small dealer in my shop. I've done work for him for years and consider him a friend and a very honest business man. He bought this truck through an auction in January and sold it on his lot. His customer drove it up until a few days ago when his mechanic noticed the frame had a crack in it. He immediately bought the truck back and called me to come give him some advice on what to do with it. What I found was that someone put body filler over a bad spot and doctored it up to run through the sale. After six months plus of having body filler holding water against the frame now it has a much bigger problem than a crack. The auction wont do anything for him because its been so long since he bought it. He wanted nothing to do with the truck and gave me a price I couldn't refuse. So I bought it.
Overall this is too nice of a truck to just scrap because it has a frame issue. It runs great. The four wheel drive works and the air is ice cold. It has great tires and the miles are fantastic for this year of a truck. It does have some blisters showing on the bottoms of the doors and tailgate lip that is very common for a Ranger, but overall it is a sharp truck. Someone just made a small problem worse by trying to hide something instead of fixing it. They make a repair section for these and you can actually buy them on Ebay for $60. I also found a complete frame for $500 at Lapoints in Holland Ohio. If I were fixing it for myself I would just plate the frame. I don't have any intentions of fixing this truck and strictly bought it with intentions of passing it on to someone else to use and save a ton of money on a nice four wheel drive truck with low miles. I knocked every bit of the filler out of the hole so you can see exactly what the problem area looks like in the pictures.
Again if you are not a welder or someone who is comfortable changing a frame don't buy this truck. Its a project vehicle. I'm offering this truck at no reserve, so if you are not a serious bidder please don't bid. If you want to come and inspect the truck before bidding or have any other questions you can email through Ebay or call me @ (330) 432-3798. I have a clean and clear Ohio title in hand and ready to transfer at the time of payment.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.
Shelby Baja 700 takes Ford F-150 SVT Raptor to the next level
Sun, Apr 12 2015The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor can be called many things, but "underpowered" is not one of them. Still, that's never going to deter a company like Shelby from taking the off-road monster even further. Pictured here is the Baja 700, an even more extreme take on the Blue Oval's outgoing performance off-roader. The legendary Ford tuner has fitted it with a new supercharger, throttle body, injectors, heat exchanger and Borla exhaust, boosting output to over 700 horsepower. Of course Carroll's boys didn't stop there, thoroughly reworking the suspension with 3-inch King coilovers, bypass rear shocks, Rogue Racing upper and lower control arms and more, fitted to 18-inch matte black wheels with BFGoodrich K02 off-road rubber. Naturally, it's got the requisite graphics and badging to go with it all, along with a skid plate and a reworked interior by Katzkin and a three-gauge dashboard pod. Only 50 examples will be made, each priced at $45,000 – over and above the price of the base vehicle, which sells for about the same. So you're looking at a good $90k for this monster truck, before auxiliary lighting and other options are taken into account. Related Video:
The 1965 Ford Mustang could have looked a lot different
Fri, May 8 2020The 1965 Ford Mustang is unquestionably an automotive design icon, and nearly every generation of Mustang has some connection to that original car. Because it's such a universally-known vehicle, we were amazed to see all the different designs that were being considered. Head of Ford's archives Ted Ryan recently shared photos of design proposals for the original Mustang on Twitter that he and Jamie Myler found, and we reached out to them to find out more. As Ryan initially noted, the photos were taken on August 19, 1962, and they are proposals for the Ford Mustang. Apparently Ford had committed to doing a Falcon-based youth-oriented car at this point, and it did have plans to launch the car in 1964 for the 1965 model year. But after having little success with early design proposals, the company asked all of its design studios — the Advanced Studio, Lincoln-Mercury Studio and Ford Studio — to submit proposals. With only about two years before the planned launch, Ford was understandably short on time, and it's believed that the studios only had a month to create and present these designs. Lincoln-Mercury design proposal View 8 Photos The majority of the designs, a total of five, came from the Advanced Studio, and part of this was because they already had a couple of concept designs in reserve it could present. Two other models representing three design possibilities came from Lincoln-Mercury, and just one model with two options came from Ford. The Advanced Studio proposals are shown in the gallery at the very top of this article, and the Lincoln-Mercury and Ford proposals are in the gallery directly above this paragraph. The Advanced Studio's most radical design is the one that was clearly related to the Mustang I concept that would be shown later that year with huge wraparound rear glass, turbine-inspired bumpers and enormous side scoops. The other proposals from the studio were more conservative, featuring simple lines, grilles reminiscent of the Falcon, and one even borrowing the jet-thruster-style taillights made famous on the Thunderbird. Lincoln-Mercury had some impressively bold designs, particularly its fastback that had buttresses to extend the shape all the way to the tail. This car had two different side trim possibilities. The other Lincoln-Mercury design was toned down a bit, but had two interesting possibilities for side detailing, as well as some crisp, low-profile tail fins.
