This is a 1956 Ford Truck Custom Cab Big Window. This is a Project Truck! No Motor or Trans!. I will do my best to describe the truck. I picked the truck up and work that's been done on it was done by previous owner so I can only tell u what I see. Truck is put together with some bolts missing since the guy I got it from was in the process of restoring it and loss interest again this is a Project and is ready for transport but will need restoration!!
Body: This is a all Original Truck, Body is Straight and has already had some work done to it. The cab is good other than the rear cab corners have some filler on them. (I guess that's the way he repaired then). The Dash and Roof are good no Rust and Very Nice Dash, no extra holes has Fresh air heater that works I tested it. Wiper motor (works I tested it) and other parts go with it (please see pics) all parts for interior seem to be in tact. Fenders and bed are in good condition and straight. Hood does need a little straighten towards rear of it, nothing bad. The Doors both are in need of repair Both Lower parts are Rusted out, I will include a Good Pass Door with only surface rust NO Rust through! I don't have a driver one. When I got it, it had no Steering column or Box. Over all Nice Start to Complete an Original BW Truck!!!
Frame: This is as Original as its gets Nice Straight uncut Frame with all brakes in tact, comes with Original Spare Tire Bracket, This is as good as it gets for a Clean Original Frame. Check the Fire Wall out Very Nice not cut up and Nice inner fenders not cut up!!
Wheels on rear are Wheel Vintique and are wider than stocks which is on the front, Tire are no good just rollers. I put a piece of Ply wood in bed just to load parts if need, Tail gate is good not perfect but straight and original.
Over all this really is a Great BW Truck! You wont be chasing parts for it since most all seem to be there. I do have rear Glass that goes with it. and I will include an Original Stock seat, It is Just Bare Frame but does have tracks.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile
Wed, 27 Mar 2013We said they'd probably be out with an official video, we did not lie. The Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT sat at one end of the runway at the Texas Mile sitting still. At the other end of the runway it had broken its own speed record, the twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8 pushing the aerodynamic supercar up to 267.6 miles per hour, a 4.3-mph improvement over the old mark.
There's not much in the video you haven't already seen, this just makes it official. That said, who doesn't want to see a twin-turbo Ford GT set an incredible speed record? You can watch it below.
Ford moving medium-duty F-Series production from Mexico to Ohio
Thu, 27 Feb 2014
A few more Ford trucks will be built in the US in the near future with news that production of the F-650 and F-750 medium-duty trucks will move from Mexico to Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, OH. Ford hasn't confirmed a precise timeline for the move, but The Detroit News claims the Blue Oval will make the shift later this year or in early 2015.
As Ford spokesperson Mike Levine reminded us, back in 2011, Ford announced in an investor release that it would shift production "after the [Ohio] plant stops current production of the Ford E-Series vans." According to that release, the Ohio factory will also receive $128 million in upgrades to build the new trucks, plus the F53 motorhome chassis and F59 commercial chassis.
