Up for sale is a 1956 ford F-100 1/2 ton pickup. It has its original 272 ci V8 engine and the original column shift 3 speed manual transmission. The truck starts and runs and you can drive it around the block but at this point I would not call it road worthy. It needs a front suspension rebuild, carb could use a rebuild, engine smokes blue when fired up and could use overhaul. I drove the car around the block a few times this week and it is currently registered and insured. It has a new brake master cylinder, new shoes, and new wheel cylinders, so the brakes work well. there is a new exhaust system from the manifold back with a glass pack muffler. Valve cover gaskets as well as intake and carb base gaskets were replaced. New spark plugs, cap, rotor, points and condenser. Starter is new but the bendix is old and occasionally kicks out. frame is in great shape and was sandblasted and painted a few years ago. the previous owner started to install new bed wood but never finished putting nuts on the carriage bolts and tightening them down, so that needs finished. The inner fenders are free of rust. the rest of the body parts are in good shape. newer rear fenders, fronts are good originals. Cab has some patchwork done on the floor but is otherwise solid. doors are in good shape and have new latches just installed. Bed is original. rear bumper is new chrome but got damaged by tow truck driver a few months ago. front bumper is original. all 3 hood emblems are new. mirrors are in good shape. the running boards have been redone using diamond plate steel and are solid. the steel wheels are older ford KH wheels but are not original to the truck. Paint is older and doesn't have much shine but has a nice patina, or you could buff it out and it would shine up a fair bit. several chips etc. seat is still in original upholstery but needs redone. no carpet or headliner. missing interior door handles. as far as electrical, the truck starts with the key, but other than that needs rewired. my name is Jay and I'm selling the truck for a friend. If your interested in the truck its currently at my shop so we can put it up on my lift if you'd like to inspect it. Its a cool old truck but a restoration project, it just needs someone to love it again and put some energy into it. happy bidding

2015 Ford S-Max adds all-wheel drive, adaptive steering
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The Blue Oval's 'One Ford' mantra has seen rapid commonization of the automaker's products across markets, but North America still has to look from afar at most of the company's Max-branded people movers, including this new S-Max. That's a bit of a shame - we like the space efficiency and above-average driving dynamics of the C-Max models we do get, but seeing this updated seven-seat small minivan makes us want the One Ford initiative to extend even further.
The new model's changes include an updated powertrain range including a 1.5-liter EcoBoost four with 158 horsepower, and a larger, 237-horsepower, 2.0-liter model, along with a pair of revised lower-emissions 2.0-liter diesels. The big news, however, is the advent of available all-wheel drive, something that hasn't been offered since the S-Max first went on sale back in 2006.
On the technology front, the S-Max is the first European model to receive Ford Adaptive Steering, a variable-ratio technology we recently sampled in a prototype Fusion that is expected to go into production on the next-generation Edge. The S-Max also receives a new aluminum-intensive integral link rear suspension, packaged to continue to fit up to 32 different seating combinations. Safety equipment is always a prime concern in kinschleppers like the S-Max, and to that end, this new model receives pre-collision assist technology and LED headlamps.
Hear the 2015 Mustang GT V8 roar for the first time
Wed, 26 Jun 2013Our combined knowledge of the 2015 Ford Mustang continues to deepen, as spy shooters have begun to compile video and audio of the upcoming sixth-generation car.
Case in point is this latest series of video clips, which not only gives us a great vantage point of the Mustang in motion, but also allows us to hear the Ford V8 engine and exhaust. After perusing the aural delights of this short video, which, admittedly, doesn't catch the Mustang GT at full song, we can at least say that the throaty exhaust isn't disappointing.
Chances are good that the 2015 Mustang GT will debut with some version of the current (and excellent) Coyote 5.0-liter V8 engine, though we're unclear as to whether or not the motor has been massaged for its next-gen debut, or what may have been done to exhaust plumbing. At this point, we're just happy to hear the pony run. Scroll below to hear for yourself.
