This 1953 Ford f-100 Anniversary Edition that was parked on the southern side of a barn in the early 70's has been redone to roughly 95% of its original condition with original parts, no aftermarket. The only rust issue to be found anywhere on this truck is the bottom of the passenger door, which was caused form the outside window seal/sweep missing and water and volcanic ash(1980 St. Helens) leaked in and plugged the drain holes. Most parts($8000 in receipts) were purchased from Sacramento vintage or Dennis Carpenter. The truck has new chrome all around except for the original chrome hood emblem that I felt did not require replacement. New tires, shocks, brakes with rebuilt cylinders. New rubber seals for the windows, doors, hood, and bed. Interior and exterior door handles are new, along with window cranks. Two years ago the truck was completely sanded to bare metal and was repainted with 4th generation products. Bed has new stainless strips and clear pine planks in good condition, but pine could be resealed (part of the 5% to completely finish truck). Running boards and bed have been redone with brown tintable raptor liner. Interior has new floor mat, vinyl seat, and door panels. Engine is original 223 straight six, fords first overhead valve motor, and has been gone through by a certified mechanic that replaced rings and installed a new gasket kit. When I replaced the 6 volt wiring with 12 volt I installed brand new heater motor, new wiper motor, and new fuel sending unit. Engine runs very well. Electrical has all been upgraded to 12 volt(only change from original condition, 6 volt) in order to be drivable/reliable. 


The 5% that I consider needs to be finished on this truck would be the broken speedometer indicator, replacement of the front bumper and oil bath air cleaner that are missing, doors locks that no longer work, and the inside bottom of the passenger door that had the only rust damage in the whole vehicle was fixed with Duraglass. The vinyl used on the door pulls turned out to be cheaper than I expected and separated, so those could also be replaced, which is a quick and cheap fix. Some parts for the door locks have been replaced but did not fix the problem, and I just decided I did not need it fixed considering the other 8 project cars I currently have going. This truck is so reliable it could easily be a daily driver that is no only fun to drive, it is also an attention grabber.

Ford will build Hackmobile out of Transit Connect Wagon

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

What you see in the above image is a rendering of the Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon. What is that? It's a "mobile fabrication and hacking unit" that includes tools for metal- and woodworking, 3D and electronics fabrication, a three-axis CNC machine called "The Fabber," a video projector and screen, an air compressor, an 84x48-inch work surface that folds out like a Murphy bed and oh so much more. When not in use, all of the implements fold neatly into the back of Ford's award-winning van.
But perhaps the more important question is why is that? Because Make Magazine held an Ultimate Maker Vehicle Challenge in conjunction with Ford in which ten teams created were charged with creating "the ultimate Ford Transit Connect Wagon for the do-it-yourself enthusiast." Team Twin Cities Maker won the competition with the Hackmobile, and in addition to winning $10,000, Ford has declared it's actually going to build the thing - which is great, because if they can actually engineer a road-legal Hackmobile Transit Connect Wagon as envisioned, the inevitable A-Team movie reboot might need to think about including it.
Check out the video below for a cheeky walk-through of the Hackmobile, and get all the particulars in the press release below that.

2015 Mustang-based Saleen S302 to boast as much as 640 hp

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

The Ford Mustang is obviously a famous performance vehicle in its own right, but it often works even better as a platform for the aftermarket to upgrade. With the all-new 2015 model just now hitting the scene, the famous tuners at Saleen are getting their improvements for the new pony car ready for the world. After recently teasing it, the specs for its fresh S302 model are officially here, along with a first look at it in profile.
Of course, the biggest question on everyone's mind is how much power the company can get from the Mustang's V8. With the 2015 V8 model rated at 435 horsepower and 400 pound-feet, Saleen expects to bump the Ford factory numbers slightly to 450 hp and 410 lb-ft in naturally aspirated form, or with the benefit of a supercharger, it will rocket the engine's output figures to 640 hp and 565 lb-ft. No matter which powerplant a buyer chooses, there are a wide variety of available final-drive ratios with a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox.
Available as either a coupe or convertible forms, Saleen will offer its S302 in three trim levels - White Label, Yellow Label and Black Label. The White Label is the only naturally aspirated one of the bunch, but it still benefits from upgrades like a new exhaust, limited-slip differential, improved suspension, heat extractor hood and rear wing.

Next Shelby Mustang to wear GT350 nameplate

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Earlier this month, rumors started to swirl 'round the web about the next-generation Ford SVT Mustang - the halo version of the all-new 2015 'Stang seen testing in the gallery above. Originally, we heard that the Shelby GT500 moniker would be dumped in favor of "a name you're familiar with," which some sources guessed could mean a return of the Cobra nameplate.
That might not be correct. According to Road & Track, citing a report from Mustangs Daily, the new range-topping Mustang will bring back the Shelby GT350 name - currently used on an aftermarket version of Ford's Pony produced by Shelby American (take a look at our recent Quick Spin of that car). Expect the new GT350 to be quite a bit different than the current GT500 - it will be all motor, using a V8 that's derived from the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter Coyote engine (though it will no doubt have a higher displacement). The GT350 will be a lot more powerful than the next Mustang GT, which is expected to offer something like 450 horsepower, but won't be quite as absurd as the 662-horsepower GT500 we currently enjoy.
The Shelby GT350 will reportedly bow with the rest of the new Mustang range at the 2014 New York Auto Show, which coincides exactly with the original Mustang's debut at the New York World's Fair in 1964. If that seems far out, don't worry, we'll be seeing the rest of the 2015 Mustang range before then, but Road & Track reports that the 2014 Detroit Auto Show stage will be reserved for the reveal of the next Ford F-150 pickup.
