1970 Ford F-100 Styleside Big Block 472ci on 2040-cars
Fontana, California, United States
Up for sale is a 1970 Ford F-100 Styleside custom lwb truck with a big block. This pick up was fully restored and documented with a book of receipts. All work was performed by Street Pro Auto Rod & Truck Center in Ramona, CA. The engine is a fully built Ford 460 bored 60 over with a C-6 3 speed trans. Here is a list of mods done to the drive train. -Crower 16903 Beast Hydraulic Flat Tappet Cams -DynoMax 89016 Performance Exhaust 2.25” -Edelbrock 2166 Performer intake manifold -B&M 40281 C-6 Deep oil pan -Lokar KD-20C6ht Performance Hi-Tech Kickdown Kit -Doug Thorley 214Y-F14-C Performance Headers w/Jet Hot coating-Mallory 605 Ignition Module-Mallory 29440 Promaster Ignition Coil-MSD 3138 Heli-Core Solid Suppression Ultra temp wires-Crower 73617-16 Enduro Stud Mount Roller Rocker Arms-Melling M84DHV High-Volume Oil Pump- Mallory 5056701H Magnetic Breakerless Electronic Ignition System- Weiand 8211 Action-Plus Aluminum Water Pump - Vista-Pro 433433 Ready-Rad Aluminium Radiator-Port and Polished Heads by Street Pro Auto Rod & Truck-Holley 850 Double Pumper Carburetor-Eagle Performance Forged Crankshaft-ARP Performance Bolts-KB 137.060 Performance Flat top pistons-Scat 66605 Connecting RodsIm sure im missing some parts here and there. This was not a “run of the mill” type of build. Everything was professionally installed and tuned. Engine is pushing 500hp on current mild tune which can (but I would not) run on 87 pump gas (91 recommended). The restoration began in August 2000 and was completed by July 2003 so basically an 11 year old truck. Miles on motor and chassis are 14,815 give or a take a mile or two since I do drive it around town on the weekends.The paint was also done at Street Pro Auto Rod & Truck. It’s a three stage paint job that still looks great. The paint job cost $3,774.09 in total. Have the receipts to prove it. Didn’t take much prep work since it has been a black plate original California Truck its whole life. Yes, I said original Black Plates since the day it was purchased new from the Ford dealer. One thing that’s nice about the paint job was that the flames were added after the fact. Meaning they were painted on top of the blue clear coat. I have not attempted removing but from what I’m told this is possible without damaging the original blue underneath.The interior is in good shape. Like a mentioned previously it is a 11 year old restoration/hot rod truck so there is some wear. The carpet will need to be replaced in my option. It has seen better days but I have already received a quote to replace the carpet for $200. All original gauges work other then the engine temp and volt meter. As you can see in the pictures they have been upgraded to aftermarket Auto Gage cluster which monitors oil pressure, volts, water temp and trans temp. All gauges work and light up at night when the headlights are turned on. As far as the sound system goes it consists of a Sony radio with a 10 disc cd changer. There are 6x9 speakers in both the driver and passenger doors. Behind the driver and passenger seats there are two MTX 10” subwoofers in separate boxes along with tweeters built in. Sounds amazing...Moving on to the exterior. The truck is sitting on Cragar wheels with Mickey Thompson 6559 Sportsman PRO 29x18.50 rear tires and Uniroyal 195/65r15 front tires. The rears are extremely wide and add to the aggressive look. The rear end is 9 inch Ford which im not sure of the gearing. All chrome around the entire vehicle looks great. The door handles are showing some pitting and will need to be either replaced or re chromed. The bed of the truck is in awesome shape with a spray in bed liner and dual gas tanks.I have added up all receipts that I have totalling $19,137.48 which does not include the truck, purchase of the 460 and the interior work which these were all paid with cash. Truck has current registration which just got paid till June 30, 2015. I have the pink slip in hand so please have the cash in yours. If there are any more questions that you might have please feel free to contact me. Good luck and happy bidding.On Jul-05-14 at 17:51:39 PDT, seller added the following information: Added a video on YouTube of the truck running so you can get a feel for the sound. Truck is running a little rich so you will see some blue smoke when i give it gas. Runs perfect and if you dont mind 8 mpg you can use it as a daily driver. http://youtu.be/i6JI72ZqDQI |

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri
Mon, Sep 19 2016Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:
Ford Announces Free Brake-Pad Offer If Customers Stop By Dealers
Mon, Aug 4 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers. "We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts. Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1. "This program reflects our commitment to providing customers with an excellent ownership experience regardless of the age of their vehicle," said Frederiek Toney, President of Ford Customer Service, in the company's announcement of the offer.

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses
Wed, 25 Jul 2012
Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.
