Hi, your looking at a nice 1956 f100 Big window project that was started from the frame up, This isn't a show truck and my intention was to built a very nice hot rod truck and drive it.Unfortunaly, couldnt finish it due to no time . I'll try to best describe it since a lot has been done to it.
Frame: Boxed from radiator crossmember to rear shock crossmember using 3/16 metal. C-notched the rear with tube bars across for better support. Mustang 2 front end with new heavy duty motor mounts with polyurethane inserts, welded and smoothed. New: upper and lower tubular a arms, power rack and pinion, drilled n slotted rotors, 2" dropped spindles, calipers with brake hoses. 8.8 Ford Explorer rearend with 3.73 posi and new rotors. New 69-70 mustang gas tank in bed. Has 2' lowering blocks with new u bolts.Custm made tranny mount from 32' roaster. The front has no coilover or airbag setup since I haven't decided which I wanted but it's holded up using a round tube pipe, easy to remove once jacked up.
Motor: 396 bored .040 over with forged crankshaft, new pistons, harmonic balancer, water pump, roller rockers, 049 heads, isky camshaft, etc..This motor came out of a 69 camaro and its freshly rebuilt with no miles. Th400 tranny with about 5k on rebuilt. New Griffen aluminum radiator,
The body is really in nice shape. I got the cab from somebody that already had started on it and i never did anything to it. All 4 cab corners are solid and nice except for the rear passenger side which has few small dents..easy fix. None of them has been replaced, no rust. Floors are solid, rain gutters and top of cab is awesome. Someone had welded the cowl vent shut but not complete and mirrors door holes smoothed. Inner fender brackets is bend due to someone wanted a full tilt frontend but i have new ones to go with it. Has front and rear glass with stainless trim(all there with clips), needs polishing. Front fenders and rear fenders has been media blasted, front fenders almost done but rear fenders need some work but in nice shape. Has new Dan Carpenter bed with ends filled up n stake pockets filled for a nice clean look. Got a nice tailgate with little work to be done. New Dan Carpenter running boards. Hood is in very good shape. I have the metal crossbars for the bed.
New: front and rear bumper, grille with stainless turn signal housing, rear stainless brake lights, stainless tailgate hinges, have stainless latches but not on, front and rear windshield weatherstripping, door weatherstripping. The wheels are new wheel vintiques with black powdercoated. New Coker whitewalls radial tires..
I'm sure im forgetting something since there's lots of new stuff on this truck. What you see in the pics is what you get. I have a bill of sale with it and the vin tag is on the door. I'm not responsible for this truck once it leaves my property. It is sold as it, where is with no written imperfections. You can come and see this truck in person if you like. Im not afraid to show it. Im a pretty picky person and want only the best for it but just not into show truck or cars. My plan was to paint it black or silver with red interior and drive it for fun.$500.00 deposit due at end of auction and paid in full in 7 days. Cashiers check or cash in person preferred. Once I get money in bank, truck is yours. Please email me with any questions. Good luck bidding..

If you want them, send me your email and i'll send them to you. Thanks again.

I forgot I had a heavy duty rear 4 link coilover set up. Its very very similar to the no limit set up. So, it goes with the truck. I have pic of it if u need it.

2015 Ford F-150 shaves 700 pounds, adds 2.7-liter EcoBoost [w/video]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014The Ford F-150 is one of the best selling vehicles on the planet. Considering that, one can imagine that when it comes time for a redesign, there are hardly any half measures. For its lucky thirteenth generation, Ford has gone all-in on the single most important vehicle in its portfolio, redesigning it from the ground up.
The big news is the F-150's new, lightweight, Atlas-inspired body. Ninety-three percent of that new body is made from a sort of aluminum alloy not unlike what the US military uses in its M2 Bradley fighting vehicles and Humvees, and it accounts for up to 70 percent of the F-150's 700-pound weight reduction. As a side benefit, the aluminum body should prove more resistant to dents and dings. Built Ford tough, indeed.
If you're wondering where the other 30 percent of that 700-pound weight loss went, 8.5 percent (60 pounds) came from the increased use of high-strength steel (up from 23 percent to 77 percent) in its ladder-box frame. Ford claims this steel is comparable to some of the heavy duty pickups used by its competitors, with a PSI rating of 70,000.
2015 Ford Mustang spied on video for the first time
Thu, 20 Jun 2013Not many cars will continue to hold our rapt attention quite like the upcoming redesigned 2015 Ford Mustang, codenamed S550 internally. Earlier this month, we brought you the first spy photos of a next-gen Mustang prototype out testing, and even though expertly placed cladding concealed the pony car's new shape, we could tell that underneath was hiding an altogether new form inspired by the Evos Concept from 2011.
Today we give you some video of what looks to be the same Mustang prototype, which you can watch below, and while the budding director behind the camera wasn't able to capture much in the way of the engine's audio signature, we can see the car in motion for the first time and compare its relative size and shape to the S197 Mustang GT that's on its tail.
Crowdsource funding push on to save historic Ford buildings
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Detroit has no shortage of old, abandoned buildings, both within the city and in the surrounding communities. Few, though, have the historical significance of the old Ford Highland Park facility. Home to the very first moving assembly line, Highland Park was designed by the legendary Albert Kahn, and was one of the homes of the Model T.
Now, the Woodward Avenue Action Association is attempting to buy both the 40,000-square-foot admin building, which is located off the historic Woodward Avenue, and an 8,000-square-foot garage. The WAAA's goal is to convert the buildings into an automotive heritage center. The Detroit News spoke to the interim director of the WAAA, Deborah Schutt, who commented, "[Metro Detroit has] not been very good at telling our own story. So we've decided, let's pull everything together and tell our story."
The WAAA made an offer of $550,000 to buy the two buildings, and has $400,000 from the Michigan Department of Transportation and another $15,000 from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. It's trying to raise a further $125,000 through crowd-sourcing, starting a campaign called "Five Dollars A Day," after old Hank Ford's $5-per-day wage for line workers.
