THIS IS A PROJECT TRUCK. It is mostly whole, and comes with a lot of the parts needed to restore the truck and make it complete. I know very little history on it, but someone before me started a total frame-off restoration of this truck and never finished it. The cab is not the original cab, and some of the parts that come with the truck are from the original cab (which was yellow). I think the current cab is a '71 or '72. In the pictures one corner is up on a jack stand, but it has 4 good tires and wheels. 

PLEASE STUDY THE PICTURES CLOSELY AND READ THE DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY. I am trying to be as thorough as possible on the description so that you know what you are bidding on. I'm trying to highlight the good with the bad and be as honest as possible. Please use the information and pictures I'm providing to make an educated assessment, as opposed to nit-picking and sending me a message offering me some lowball offer on an outside of ebay transaction. Please don't waste your time.

CAB AND BODY:
It's been my experience that when someone is selling a "rust free" cab, it still has rust if you look closely. Aside from some spots on the passenger side floor (pictured), and very light surface rust on the underside of the floorboards (pictured), this cab is basically a rust free, original, Explorer package, factory A/C equipped cab. I peeled back all the flooring and found 1 TINY pin hole on the passenger side. Aside from that, the floor is sound. There is a little surface rust and some small paint bubbles and chipping, but it is pretty superficial. Other than neutralizing the rust, it shouldn't need any repairs. My guess is that the rust is from A/C condensation dripping on the floor. Check out the pictures, but otherwise the cab looks pretty awesome. The driver's side floor, all the cab mounts, cab corners, rocker panels, cowl, etc. are all incredibly clean and, as far as I can tell, have never been touched. It's in excellent shape.

The cab was originally an auto trans. cab, but the clutch pedal assembly and other associated brackets are included to convert it to be a manual transmission truck.

It appears that all of the cab A/C parts like ducting, condenser, controls, baffles, blower motor, and so on are present. Check the pictures.

Most of the bed is missing, but some of the braces and frame structure can be seen in pictures. Both front fenders and hood are missing. The grill has been sandblasted, but was never painted. The bare metal rusted slightly after sandblasting, but the grill is in excellent condition. It has no damage that I can find, and both headlight buckets and chrome mouldings are present.

The original cab driver's door is still on the truck because that's where the VIN tag is.

The mirrors pictured on the cab are NOT included.

CHASSIS AND DRIVETRAIN:
The frame has all been stripped, primed, and painted black (it has a few nicks and scratches). The axles have also received the same treatment. All of the brake lines, emergency brake cable assembly, brakes shoes and hardware, u-joints, drive shafts (rear is damaged, see picture), leaf spring bushings, body mounts (one is missing), radius arm bushings, as well as plenty more misc. parts ARE ALL BRAND NEW. It looks like pretty much every little spring, clip, piece of linkage, etc., was either replaced with a brand new unit or worked fine and was cleaned up and painted. The person who started the restoration looks like they tended to lean toward buying a brand new part instead of reconditioning an old one.
  • front axle is Dana 44 with lockouts (matching gears for rear)
  • rear axle is Ford 9" with 3.73 gears. NOTE: It appears to have some sort of traction device- either a locker or limited slip. When I turned a sharp corner while towing it on a dolly, one tire would hop or chirp a little. When you jack up the rear end and spin one tire, both turn the same way freely, which I believe means it's NOT an open diff. 
  • transfer case is a Dana 21
  • transmission is a 4 speed manual New Process. I'm guessing a 435, but I don't know.
  • the truck originally had a 300 straight six, but it is gone
  • brakes are 4 wheel drums

THE INCIDENT:
The person I bought this truck from forgot to tighten all the lug nuts and, as I was towing the truck home on a dolly, the driver's side rear wheel parted ways with the truck. The wheel and brake drum flew off into the night never to be seen again. Consequently, the backing plate on the axle has some minor damage from dragging (pictured), which can easily be heated and bent back. As a result, that brake drum is missing and one wheel and tire is different than the other 3. The wheel studs are okay, and other than the edges of the brake shoes being a little rough, everything else appears to be fine and intact. I put a spare on and made the rest of the trip home with no problem.

PARTS:
Look at the pictures. If it was worth mentioning, I've addressed it or included it in the pictures. If it's not pictured, either it's too minor to mention or it's one of the parts that the truck is missing. That said, there are several boxes of little parts like knobs and latches and screws and clips and springs from the truck that go with it.

THIS IS A PROJECT TRUCK AND SOLD AS IS WITH NO WARRANTEE. I have described and pictured the truck and parts to the best of my abilities. If you have any questions, please ask. Since the truck does not run and drive, and I'm not able to test each part, I cannot guarantee that every single part on the truck is in working order. Based on the info I had when I purchased it, and by the amount of work and detail that the previous owner put into it when starting the restoration, I believe most, if not all parts on the truck and sold with the truck are functional. But, as I mentioned, I cannot and will not guarantee anything because I am unable to do so. Please bid accordingly.

PURCHASE, PICK-UP, AND PAYMENT:
LOCAL PICK-UP ONLY. I WILL NOT SHIP THIS TRUCK. If you want to have a carrier or other party pick up the truck, you may, but that is 100% your responsibility. THE TRUCK MUST BE PICKED UP WITHIN 7 CALENDAR DAYS OF THE SALE. It is located at a residence which is accessible with a tow truck, pickup and trailer, or flatbed tow truck. No semi access. The truck has 4 tires and wheels and rolls freely. Please plan your transport accordingly before purchasing.

A Paypal deposit of $500 dollars is due within 24 hours of purchase, and the remaining balance is due in full at or before time of pick-up in cash or cashiers check ONLY. I have a clean title, with no leins, in my name, in hand. After I have receive full payment, and at the time of pick-up, it's all yours.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 has a bit of a dyno issue

Tue, 28 May 2013

We're of the mind that each and every dyno should come with Murphy's Law painted in big, visible letters down the side. For every ten successful dyno runs out there, it seems there's one where events to horribly wrong. Take, for example, the video below. The clip shows what happens when a Ford Shelby GT500 and a mobile dyno have a bit of a disagreement at the Performance Expo 24 in Sherbrooke, Quebec. We won't spoil the results for you, but we will say there's some substantial carnage involved.
It's unclear just how much damage ensues from the dust up or whether anyone was harmed in the incident, but from the looks of things, everyone made it out without serious injury. If only we could say the same for the machines involved. Check out the video below.

Ford Explorer problems gutted third-quarter sales

Tue, Oct 22 2019

In early September, the Detroit Free Press published a feature noting numerous problems Ford's having with the 2020 Explorer and 2020 Lincoln Aviator launches. Issues with both SUVs, built at Ford's Chicago Assembly Plant, were so rife and dire that the automaker was trucking the vehicles 275 miles away to Michigan for repairs. Bloomberg reported earlier this month that Explorer's third-quarter sales dropped 48 percent compared to the previous model in 2018, with dealers unable to get enough units on lots for customers. Nor is the snafu over: Automotive News reports that another "batch of about 2,500 Explorers in need of repairs" arrived recently in Michigan, and sales through the first nine months of 2019 are down 31 percent. Sales dips during model changeovers are to be expected as old inventory gets sold down and new production ramps up, but this is different. Ford U.S. sales boss Mark LaNeve told Bloomberg earlier this month, "We’ve got adequate inventory in our stores. For Q4, availability wonÂ’t be an issue. WeÂ’ll be able to hit our stride with Explorer starting now." It's hard to know whether that's true, with thousands of Explorers still piling into Michigan; the batch AN mentioned represents about 5 days of sales during an average month in 2018, before the drawdown and interruptions hampered matters. And when Consumer Reports tested the Ford Explorer it bought this summer, it titled the review, "2020 Ford Explorer drives nicely but has many flaws / Poor interior quality and a high price overshadow the SUV's improvements."   On top of that, the AN piece mentions a new impediment to uncorking the Explorer sales stream: Worker strife in the Chicago plant. Allegedly, "Roving groups of workers are intimidating other employees, creating a hostile environment, the people said. ThatÂ’s driving up turnover and leaving some vehicle assembly unfinished, contributing to the company having to complete the work at the Michigan factory or at dealerships, the people said." Ford's been fined twice before for the same kinds of issues at its plants, once in 1999, again in 2017, but a spokesperson said Ford isn't aware of any such problems now. The pressure otherwise has got to be unpleasant for everyone on the Explorer team, from CEO Jim Hackett down. The automaker was meant to be "turning the corner" in April, but as of now, shares are down, credit rating is down, earnings are down.
