I am re-listing this truck due to not having it listed correctly. It would not allow me to upload more pictures. This is a 1959 Ford F100. It runs and drives great. Bought truck to go to Rat Rod shows with. Made a few changes to the truck since I've had it and now I don't have time for it. Hate to see it go but figure it needs a good home to someone that will use it more. The motor is a 305 out of a '94 mustang. Tranny is a 3-speed auto. Has a brand new alternator and optima battery. Alternator that was on the truck when I purchased it was to small and also was not grounded allowing it to charge. Has a brand new Edelbrock carb, the original one was cracked allowing carb to suck too much air. There is a brand new fuel tank behind the seat that was recently installed. Truck has air bags both front and rear. Has left and right controls in front. Rear is linked together. The rear was separate but I changed it shortly after to make it easier to set ride height. I have all valves to put it back if wanted. The rear sits on the ground. The front does not lay all the way down. This was my next mod to the truck but could not find time. The front clip is off a older model Camaro and could be made to lay all the way but would require pulling the motor. Last project on the truck was covering the rear suspension/air bags. I built a frame and used old fence board to get the best look. The tailgate is of off a 1946 ford. It was welded shut by the previous owner and I was able to get it working properly. The "Patina" on this truck is hard to find. It is one of a kind. It turns heads everywhere I go. Local pick up preferred. If you want it shipped buyer is responsible for all shipping charges and handling of shipping. I do not have time to mess with shipping quotes. Will require a $1000.00 deposit through pay pal at auction end. The balance must be cash in hand upon pick up or certified funds must clear before truck is picked up or shipped. I have clear LA title in hand. I reserve the right to end auction early at anytime due to local listing. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks and good luck.

Ford dissects the heart of the 2015 Mustang, its engine range
Thu, 05 Dec 2013Happy Mustang Day. Are you tired of hearing about the 2015 Ford Mustang yet? No? Good, here's a bunch of mechanical data on Ford's sixth-gen muscle car, along with cutaways of the GT's 5.0-liter V8 and the new 2.3-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder shown above. We also have a smattering of info on the Stang's updated transmissions and an exploded-parts-diagram view of its all-new independent rear suspension.
Ford is set to make waves offering the Mustang with a turbo for the firs time since the small-volume SVO of the 1980s. Displacing 2.3 liters, the engine's twin-scroll turbo should help the four-cylinder turn out a projected 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, while also returning the best fuel economy in the Mustang's engine lineup. As we said in our Deep Dive, the EcoBoost will be slotted in as a premium engine, above the 3.7-liter V6 but below the 5.0-liter V8.
Speaking of that high-revving eight-cylinder, it's receiving a new cylinder head with high-flow ports. The intake and exhaust valves are larger and the cams have been replaced, among other tweaks. It should rev even higher thanks to a rebalanced crankshaft and forged connecting rods. Ford is still claiming a projected 420 hp and 390 lb-ft, although as many of the changes for the 2015's V8 come from the 2013 Boss 302, we're going to assume there's some sandbagging at work.
Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
