This is the semi-tragic story of a guy in the middle of starting his own business who got this build to about 85% completion, then simply became too busy to finish his once-beloved 1956 F-100 side project. It's now sitting around taking up space, so it's time to say goodbye. Don't let the paint fool you at first glance, this is no driveway junker. This is an 85% potential show truck with a ton of subtle mods and attention to details. It is a perfect project for someone looking for an easy hot rod build or even a quick fix-and-sell vehicle. Minor tuning, a tiny bit of wiring, and light bodywork are just about all this truck needs to be a completely unique custom hot-rod.
$12K or best offer. No low-ball offers.
Ford 429 with headers, holley 750 carb, C6 transmission painted red/chrome motif. Top end gaskets replaced preventatively a few years ago, mileage on engine unknown but I've barely driven it.
Ford 9" rear (recently replaced seals)
Not currently running but can be made to run again very easily.
Rear axle flip kit installed
Air lift helper springs in rear in case you want to carry heavier loads or just jack the back up for a cool hot rod stance.
Fiberglass tilt nose with custom radiator and inner fenderwell supports. hinges with tailgate straps to support it. Right front fender piece of fiberglass is broken. I have 2 pieces here but just never got the chance to fiberglass the 2 pieces together.
Custom hinges for nose, attched to bumper, so the bumper tilts with the nose.
Underbed aluminum fuel cell installed, rear crossmember moved. Electric in-line fuel pump on switch to act as a secondary feed to the manual pump in case you park on a hill or let the truck sit for a long time. Flip the switch to feed fuel up the fuel lines for a few seconds, then turn it off and crank it right over.
Front door lip corners rounded and door frame reshaped to match.
Tons of custom work in the bed. Bed sides built out 2" across stake pockets then reskinned, making the bed wall thicker, and adding more clearance for fatter tires. All corners radiused and rounded for a "chubby" custom look. Subtle, but looks cool and aggressive. Bed is designed so a simple custom tailgate will sit perfectly flush with bed corners.
Custom roll pan with license plate bucket.
Chrome grill.

Plethora of 2015 Ford F-150 customs runs the gamut at SEMA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014
Of Ford's customized trucks, two feature the name of famous Ford racers.
Of all the OEMs making appearances at the 2014 SEMA show, Ford owns arguably the most significant group of vehicles, thanks to its new 2015 F-150 and Mustang. While you can look for our Mustang coverage soon, we've managed to sneak out and get snaps of some of a few of the F-150s on display at the company's sprawling, 20,000-square-foot display (look for even more aftermarket F-150 goodness in the coming days).
Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?
Wed, 11 Dec 2013The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.
Ford opens research center in Silicon Valley
Fri, Jan 23 2015These days, the software running a vehicle's myriad of electronic systems seems to be getting nearly as much development focus from automakers as the traditional mechanical parts that keep a car going. Constantly improving that technology requires a lot of experimentation, though, and Ford is expanding its presence in Silicon Valley with the just-opened Research and Innovation Center Palo Alto to make that progress possible. Ford opened its first office in the country's technological hub in 2012 to draw talent and devise ways to deal with vast amounts of sensor data. Apparently, setting up shop in Silicon Valley was deemed a success because the Blue Oval decided to create this new lab in the Stanford Research Park to focus on five areas: connectivity, mobility, autonomous vehicles, customer experience and analytics. Among the center's potential projects, Ford is hoping to develop better natural speech recognition, which is absolutely vital for improving infotainment systems. Assuming the tech eventually works well enough, your voice might even be used to adjust a vehicle's power seats, according to the automaker. The Blue Oval is also letting engineers from Stanford University test autonomous driving algorithms on a self-driving version of the Fusion. In a smaller stakes venture, researchers are working to get a Nest smart thermometer to automatically adjust the temperature at home depending on if an owner's vehicle is leaving or coming back. To really show that its serious about these ventures, Ford hired Dragos Maciuca away from Apple as the center's technical leader. The automaker also wants to have 125 researchers at work there by the end of the year.
