Without Reserve

Chassis no. 20050001

?Unveiled at the 2005 New York Auto Show

?A unique concept boasting maximum utility and performance





Daring to go against the trend of ?bigger is better? for sport trucks, Ford?s Special Vehicle Team (SVT) developed the Sport Trac Adrenalin Concept with the idea of crafting a four-passenger pickup with four doors and a four-foot bed into a mid-sized SUV. The Sport Trac Adrenalin Concept was powered by the same engine found in the 2004 SVT Mustang Cobra, which was mated to the same six-speed automatic transmission first used in the Lincoln Navigator, and it was said to be ideally suited for both stop-light drag races and hauling a trailer with up to 6,000 pounds.??



This Sport Trac Adrenalin Concept debuted at the 2005 New York Auto Show and was retained by Ford before it was purchased from the company by Mr. Pack in 2010. While the Adrenalin Concept never made its way to full production, some of its styling cues made their way to later Ford production vehicles, and it is a compelling example of what would have been a very stylistic addition to Ford?s lineup. Almost 10 years after its introduction, the beefed-up Sport Trac is still fondly remembered by enthusiasts as a light truck with serious attitude.??



This vehicle will run and drive but is not DOT or EPA certified. It cannot be registered for highway use in the United States and is offered on a Bill of Sale only.

Same STA linked? What does this mean?

Would love to have a newer ST, sad they discontinued the model. Though for the one going on auction.. That's an expensive lawn ornament! :banghead:

So it's not DOT EPA certified. Does that mean that they didn't go through the application process only?

Why can't someone buy it and transfer all the body parts as well as other unique parts onto a registered Trac? It is a nice looking body.

Looks like the auction closed anyways.

For $173,000 I hope it still looks as good as it did in those pictures!!! :haveabeer:

Seems like for $175,000 they could have hosed off the engine and cleaned up some of that horrible wiring work

$173,250 is very hard to believe. It went through at least two Ebay listings at $39,997 without selling.

Steve, that's not the truck that was on Ebay. The Ebay truck was a production truck that a private individual/shop put a Coyote 5.0 in. This truck is the original concept truck built by Ford when they were showing off the new generation of ST's that they were working on back in 2005 or so.

Oops. Thanks for clarifying Dan. Good to hear from you, how's your 5.0L conversion coming along?

Like I said in that last update, I finally got time to get the motor in, and it's mostly complete at this point. I tried to start it before leaving out but it wouldn't turn over, so I've got to do some wiring verification when I get home this weekend. I'll be home all next week and off of work, so I "should" be able to get it figured out during that time, lol.
