OK, I TRY THIS AGAIN! THIS TIME ONLY SERIOUS BUYERS PLEASE, NO "EXPERTS" THAT WANT TO HELP ME SELLING THE TRUCK!! ALSO, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS TRUCK IF YOU WONDER ABOUT THE PRICE! IT IS PRICED TO SELL TO MAKE ROOM FOR ANOTHER TOY! IF IT DOES NOT SELL THIS TIME AROUND I WILL SHOW IT AT THE CHARLOTTE AUTO FAIR IN 3 WEEKS IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT. THANKS

This is a very solid all steel truck! It sounds great and runs very strong, I drive it every week ever since the engine was totally rebuild about 10 month ago. I love to run errands with it and go to the local car shows! I'm the third owner and the second owner purchased the Truck in 1975 and restored it about 15 years ago, but it needed a professional engine overhaul. The Truck has been kept inside since for many years. The body is super straight, the tilt hood needs some adjustment. The truck is rust and bondo free with one exception, the passenger door has some minor rust on the lower door panel, see picture. Paint is of older restoration, looks good but has normal scratches and scuffs (see pictures), but absolutely no dents! Steel floor boards, original steel fenders, truck bed and hood!

I hate to sell it, but I got too many toys as it is. This truck is very solid with thousands of dollars in engine work alone. Receipt and detailed pictures available upon sale.

This is not one of these boring Restomods!!! This is your authentic 1956 F100 with the brand and time period correct engine upgrade!!

A tribute to William Clay Ford

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.

UK's Loughborough University improving Ford's 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine

Wed, May 21 2014

How much does it cost for college students to study zero emissions vehicles? At Loughborough University in the UK, a new Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC) is being built at a cost of a billion pounds ($1.7 billion US). The school has just announce that it will fund a number of grad student positions and is creating a new Chair in Advanced Propulsion Systems, which sounds like a fun job to us. We're weird like that. There will be a total of four professor-type positions in the new Center, including the chair, all focused on teaching students about low-carbon vehicle technologies, specifically electric and hybrid ones. The school is investing 1.5 million pounds ($2.5 million) for the new positions. There is a bigger picture as well, a 26-million pound ($44 million) Advanced Combustion Turbocharged Integrated Variable-valvetrain Engine (ACTIVE) project, which uses funds not only from the school but also from Ford and others. The point of ACTIVE is to study Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine and "improve further its efficiency and ensure it exceeds 2020 emission regulations." This is already a popular engine for the automaker, and it will need to stay at the bleeding edge of efficiency to remain as important in 2020 as it is today. Loughborough University has been working with automakers on advanced energy technologies for years, for example with Rolls-Royce and fuel cells in 2007 and the Lotus Hotfire engine in 2008. University invests GBP1.5M in advanced propulsion research to advance zero emissions vehicles challenge Loughborough University is investing GBP1.5M over five years in strategic research appointments, inspired by the global challenge to develop the new advanced propulsion technologies required for the move to zero emission vehicles. These appointments reinforce the University's world-class research in low-carbon vehicle technologies, adding new dimensions concerned with electric and hybrid drives. Four appointments will be made, including a Chair in Advanced Propulsion Systems, supported by a number of PhD studentships. The GBP1.5M investment is part of the University's commitment to the recently announced Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC) to support the development of new supply chains for low carbon vehicles. APC is an initiative established by the Automotive Council that will see GBP1 billion of investment from government and industry over the next 10 years.

Saab-powered Ford is the most unlikely drift car we've seen

Tue, Jan 19 2016

Yes, you read that headline correctly. It's supposed to be a Saab-powered Ford, and not the other way around (although we fully support the notion of a Sonnet with a Flathead V8). Apparently, some lunatic in the UK took an ass-less 1953 Ford Anglia, paired it with a turbocharged Saab engine, and tuned the entire thing to go drifting. We like it. Called Urchfab, it's the subject of Carfection's (the blokes formerly known as XCar) latest video. Aside from looking like an extra from the British version of Mad Max, it has a problem with grip, in that there's just too much of it. This car is a fabber's dream, as we get to see its unnamed owner fashion new bits and bobs for the suspension before having an unfortunate encounter with a wall at Castle Combe. You can check out the full video up at the top of the page for a closer look at this monstrous Anglia. Related Video:
