1956 Ford F100 Big Window on 2040-cars
Perris, California, United States
|
Here is a nicely customized big window 1956 F100. The stance of this truck makes it look like it can move, then you open the hood and remove all doubt. Body mods include radius door corners, deleted cowl vents, "Pancaked" hood. It rides on Chevelle front suspension and 4 link TCI coil over in rear. The entire chassis was powder coated. There are power disc brakes on all corners and power steering. The paint is less than a year old. Interior is leather with overhead Panasonic 610 console and under seat 6 disc changer. The motivation comes from a blown BBC 427 with Edelbrock aluminum heads and 671 BDS blower tugging on two new dual pumper Holly 850's and fired by MSD ignition. Power is handled by 400 TH with a Gear Vendor O/D and finally to the 9" Currie with posi and 4:11 gears. The bed is a new unit without stake pockets and is floored with purple heart wood from Brazil. Exhaust is through custom built stainless headers and 3" stainless full length tubes. Other custom additions include Classic Gauges, American Mags, Goodyear Eagles, Lokar shifter, Specialty Power Windows, Matson Dual fan Aluminum Radiator, March pulleys, Vintage Air, and Rock Valley stainless fuel tank. If it weren't for tax troubles, this truck would not be for sale. My loss is your gain.

How Ford's light lab keeps the sun shining on the new Mustang just right [w/video]
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Anyone who's bought one of those old school metal shift knobs knows they're really cool until they sit in a parking lot in the sun for a few hours. Then they're not cool at all. Likewise, features such as the aluminum dash on the 2015 Ford Mustang can be all kinds of neat right up until the sun hits it just the right way and sends shards of blinding light through the cabin. The Ford Visual Performance and Evaluation Lab is where engineers figure out how to make sure that doesn't happen.
Cars like said Mustang are parked inside the 30-foot reflecting dome under 6,000 watts of lights that can mimic the sun at any time of day and in any weather condition. Engineers can then spend cold, overcast days inside, testing for interior legibility, glare and reflections on every interior and exterior surface as if it were bright and sunny. They can also learn how a car's sheetmetal and colors will look out of doors, all year round.
Ford showed off the lighting lab without the music and interviews three years ago when the Explorer was being prepared. You can watch it at work again in the video below, and read about it in the press release below that.
Ford builds one-off 50th anniversary Mustang Convertible for charity
Thu, 08 May 2014At the New York Auto Show this year, Ford revealed a special-edition Mustang to honor the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary. Only 1,964 highly symbolic examples will be made, all of them fixed-roof coupes. But the Blue Oval automaker has just announced that it's also building a single 50 Years edition convertible that it will raffled off for charity.
The first production example of the new Mustang Convertible to roll off the line this fall, this one-off will pack many of the features on the 50 Years coupe, including its white paintjob, chrome trim, aluminum dashboard, two-tone upholstery, contrast stitching, special 19-inch wheels and special-edition badging throughout.
This unique cabrio will also be fitted with a special performance pack including Pirelli PZero rubber, Brembo brakes and a limited-slip differential to help get the 420 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque from the 5.0-liter V8 through the six-speed manual transmission and down to the road. It'll also feature a serial plaque with the number 0001 of 0001 and chairman Bill Ford's signature.
