Up for sale is my 1994 Ford truck. I really love this truck but I have a newer 7.3 so this one may go if the price is right. I have used this as a hobby truck. I purchased this truck in 2008 with 145,xxx miles and it now has 179,xxx miles. The miles may change as it is still occasionally driven. For a truck 20 years old I think the paint looks pretty good with light rust; certainly no rust through on the body panels although the paint could use some additional care such as rubbing compound or high speed buffing to improve the brightness. It is 4-wheel drive and it does work. I have done several repairs through the years which I will list below:

-Rebuilt transmission and a new transmission cooler at 149,xxx miles.

-New alternator approx. three years ago.

-New tires last year. Mastercraft with light wear.

-New front brake rotors last year and Wagner pads all the way around.

-New fuel sending unit last year.

-New Monroe Gas Magnum shocks installed last year.

-Changed the oil approx. every 3,000 miles.

The truck is not perfect so I will try to go into some other details. The interior carpet is soiled and stained in some areas and the seats might have some light stains on them. There are a couple of dents on it which I tried to capture in the pictures. The worst body defect is the rear driver fender where my young daughter jack knifed my utility trailer years ago which also slightly bent the bumper. There is a crack in the passenger side on the front window. The window motors probably need replaced since the windows no longer works but the air conditioner does work! The weather stripping on the bottom of the windows on the door need to be replaced. The motor does has at least one oil leak which is not uncommon for these motors. The truck does idle a little rough when first started and it does smoke a little at first; it has done this the entire time I owned it. The wheels may need to be aligned or it may have some where in the front steering system...not sure.

Hopefully I didn't scare you off but I am more straight forward than alot of people I dealt with. This is still a good truck in my opinion and I won't let it go if too low on the price. Local pickup is preferred but if you want to have it shipped that would be your responsibility to handle all of the details. No warranty and sold as is. A $500 deposit is to be paid by Paypal at the end of the listing and the remainder of the balance is to be paid by Paypal or in person with cash within 5 days. The deposit will not be refundable if the buyer changes his/her mind. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me. Thanks for looking.

Ford and Mercedes join Renault in French emissions investigation

Thu, Jan 21 2016

The French government is investigating certain models from Ford, Mercedes-Benz, and Renault because they allegedly produce more nitrogen oxide than the country's pollution rules allow, according to Automotive News, citing a French newspaper. After VW's emissions scandal, French regulators began checking more vehicles for evidence of defeat devices and excessive real-world pollution. According to Automotive News, the Mercedes S350 allegedly showed inconsistent results across these tests, and a Ford C-Max had NOx levels five times over the limit. The Renault Captur crossover, Espace, and an unnamed utility vehicle also had results that were too high. The French testing for this investigation includes an on-road emissions check that's not part of the EU's normal evaluations, which some automakers claim is unfair. "Unofficial on-road testing has varying conditions and can produce significantly different results," a Ford of Europe spokesman told Automotive News. Renault representatives met with French officials on January 18 to explain the situation. The company later submitted a plan to recall 15,800 examples of the diesel Captur, and said it would offer a voluntary software upgrade for about 700,000 other vehicles, according to Automotive News. Representatives from Ford and Mercedes will meet with the government soon, too. Renault's stock price plunged last week after investors heard that French regulators searched three of the automaker's sites as part of the emissions investigation. The stockholders feared an environmental scandal like the one currently embroiling Volkswagen. There's one major difference – as of now, there's no evidence Renault equipped any of the polluting models with defeat devices. Related Video:

Ken Block's 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR and CR Supercars Villain are retro done right

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Gymkhana king Ken Block has had a pretty simple car history in his trademark videos, starting out with Subaru Impreza rally cars before moving into Ford Focus racers for the past four installments. His next video, though, Gymkhana Seven, kind of goes back in time.
Rather than the cutting-edge rally racers of past videos, Block will pilot a heavily modified 1965 Ford Mustang, called the Hoonicorn. How heavily modified is it? Well, Block's Hooligan Racing Division, ASD Motorsports and Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s RTR, spent two years working on it, ditching the standard engine and rear-wheel-drive layout and replacing it with a 410-cubic-inch Roush Yates V8. Yes, that's a NASCAR engine, and it produces 845 horsepower.
A NASCAR-powered Mustang would be news in itself, but it's the other powertrain changes made by Block and Co. that really makes headlines. Power is channeled through a one-off Sadev transmission and all-wheel-drive system, meaning that Block has basically married a NASCAR stock car with a WRC racer. ASD also developed the customized suspension, tubular chassis and roll cage. The wide Mustang body is the work of RTR and Block's own Hoonigan Racing Division, while the 18-inch fifteen52 wheels are shod in Pirelli Trofeo R tires that use a specialized compound exclusive to Block.
