This is a 1956 Ford Truck F100 Custom Cab Big Window Project Truck!!! I have not had the truck long, The Truck had been siting for quite a few years before I got to it. Still a Very Nice start to a BW Truck!!

The Previous owner installed a engine and trans from a 1982 Mustang GT 302 with a 4 Speed Manual Overdrive tranny. They did not finish the change so it sat.  

Body- The truck is Straight, it has The Front and Rear SS Trim and glass is good, except for doors glass missing driver and pass cracked. The Dash is Clean no extra holes, just a great example of an Untouched Dash. The Seat is Missing, and it has a Mustang Steering Column and Gear box, It works Great its Tight! cab corners do have some rust (not bad) Please see Pics, and the Driver door has rust at bottom, pass door also starting to show rust. Roof Is Good No Rust through! Over all the Truck has some Straight Body Panels!! Not perfect but Good!!. Running Boards could use some straightening. Please look at Pics!!! Has Ply wood in Bed, and will still need some bolts here and there on the truck.

Chassis- Frame needs some cleaning but it has Stock Chassis!!! I have not worked on the brakes but it Steers!!! Wheels are old school Mags and the Tires are ok! Just Rollers!!

Engine - From what I can tell its a Ford 302 HO and Trans is a 4 Speed manual w/overdrive! I don't know anything about the motor other than what the previous Owner told me and it Came out of a Running Mustang and it was fast!! I do not know the condition of the engine or trans. I would guess that it wouldn't take much to get running, but I cant Confirm that. I do not like the way the mounts were set up so they will need some attention. Not exactly sure what it needs other than a starter and Dist Cap!! and wires! I'm sure who ever gets this Big Window will have there own idea on what they will do!

Here's your Chance to Own a Big Window Truck and not Spend a ton of money buying one done someone's else's way! This is a Project Truck and will make a Very Nice Truck when completed. Its all there!!! This is a numbers Matching Truck as far as Title, Vin Tag and Frame Numbers!! and a California Built Truck!!! It don't get much better!!

2015 Ford F-150 spied in the rain

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Standing as quite a contrast from the spy shots of the 2015 Ford Mustang we saw earlier today, our spies also sent along these pictures of the next-generation F-150 pickup out testing in its (heavily camouflaged) full prototype body. Much of the new truck's design is hidden under the bulky coveralls, but we expect a lot of its new lines to be inspired by the Atlas concept that debuted at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show.
Perhaps the biggest unknown surrounding the new F-150 is what, exactly, its body will be made of. Earlier reports have suggested that lightweight aluminum materials may be used throughout, offering a serious reduction in weight versus previous models. But Ford engineers will need to be careful, though, as they need to keep a tight rein on costs while preserving class-competitive (if not class-leading) towing and payload capacity.
On the powertrain front, the new F-150 will undoubtedly carry on with EcoBoost engines, and we'd bet on a normally aspirated V8 as well. A diesel option hasn't been confirmed, but we wouldn't be surprised to see one some time in the truck's lifecycle. Mum's the word on when the production F-150 will be revealed, but our best guess is that we'll see it at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.

Ford Claims Focus As World's Best-Selling Car For Second Year In A Row

Mon, Jan 27 2014

Ford Motor Co. has claimed its Focus sedan beat out the Toyota Corolla for the title of 'best-selling car in the world' for the second year in a row. The declaration was based on independent sales figures from January to September of 2013, according to USA Today. Last year, Ford used data from the analysis firm Polk to support its claim of having the best-selling car of 2012. Toyota objected, stating the Corolla sold more units. The numbers eventually showed that the Ford Focus was the best selling nameplate of the year, but may have been second to the Toyota sedan overall since multiple variations of the Corolla are sold under different nameplates around the world. Data from the analysis firm R.L. Polk found Focus registrations from January through September 2013 reached 856,587. Ford can thank booming car sales in China, where the automaker sold 303,481 units, for a sizable chunk of that number, which was a 16 percent increase over 2012. "Our success with Focus is the result of Ford's connection to our customers all over the world," said Jim Farley, an executive vice president at Ford. The Focus and Corolla both compete in the popular small sedan segment, along with other hot-selling cars like the Honda Civic, Hyundai Elantra and Chevrolet Cruze. These vehicles make a up a large portion of sales for their respective automakers, as they tend to hit a sweet spot for many consumers, coming with a starting sticker price under $20,000, solid fuel economy, plenty of cargo and passenger room and, lately, sharp exterior design and sportier driving dynamics.

Our love of SUVs is killing people in the streets

Tue, Jul 17 2018

Americans are fond of supersized fast-food meals and colossal convenience-store fountain drinks, even though they're clearly bad for our health and U.S. adults keep getting fatter. We also like large vehicles, and our love affair with SUVs is killing people in the streets. According to a recent investigation by the Detroit Free Press/USA Today, the increase in SUV sales over the past several years coincides with a sharp rise in pedestrian deaths in the U.S. — up 46 percent since 2009, with nearly 6,000 people killed in 2016 alone. With SUV sales surpassing sedans in 2014 and pickups and SUVs currently accounting for 60 percent of new vehicle sales, it's no wonder Ford announced in April plans to cease U.S. sales of almost all passenger cars. And this followed Fiat Chrysler's move to virtually an all-truck, -SUV and -crossover lineup. While the Freep/USA Today investigation found that the simultaneous surge in SUV sales and pedestrian deaths comes down to vehicle size, it also points to a lack of action on the part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), even though it knew of the dangers SUVs pose to pedestrians. Also blamed are automakers dragging their feet on implementing active safety features. Using federal accident data, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) determined that there was an 81 percent increase in single-vehicle pedestrian fatalities involving SUVs between 2009 and 2016. Freep/USA Today's analysis of the same data by counting vehicles that struck and killed pedestrians instead of the number of people killed showed a 69 percent increase in SUV involvement. As far back as 2001, researchers at Rowan University forecasted a rise in pedestrian deaths as Americans began switching to SUVs. "In the United States, passenger vehicles are shifting from a fleet populated primarily by cars to a fleet dominated by light trucks and vans," the researchers wrote, with light trucks comprising SUVs.
