1956 Ford F100
Short Bed Sometimes you get the chance to find some well preserved trucks. And sometimes you get to find some that are just amazing. This is the amazing one. So I thought I would test the waters and see if there was anyone interested in it before I start in on it. The truck from what I have learned belonged to a gentlemen in California who owned an old oil business back in the day. He ordered it with this custom color for his business. The truck was in the CA desert its entirety and was built in the San Jose plant. The vin plate has the letters "SS" stamped in the color section. That means special order from the factory. The truck is almost all original. It has never been painted and does not have any cancer. In fact, it is very straight except a little fender bender that any collision shop with the right tools could help pull out. It still has the spare tire under the bed and the beds strips are usable if you wanted to keep that original patina look that is very popular. The interior is in good shape for it's age and the dash is uncut... The chassis has not been chopped and it is all original. The only thing that was changed recently by an excited owner that I bought it from was the motor. It came with a 223, but now has a good running 390 Engine and 4 speed trans. The motor runs good and the brakes work as well. He left the linkage on the steering column in case you want to go backwards. The motor seems to have lots of power. And the install was clean. Not hacked up. If you have any questions please call me or send me an email. Jason 480-619-8353 I have owned probably 30 of these trucks and have loved them all but one. :) Thanks for looking, The truck is currently in Arizona. If you are a zero bidder, please contact me before bidding. I will cancel your bids if you don't qualify yourself upfront. And although this is a running driving truck, I can't guarantee it will drive across the country or even 50 miles across town. So please make arrangements to have it shipped if you buy it. I also have tried to describe the truck to the best of my ability. I strongly recommend that you call or email me with your questions so that you are not confused at what you are getting. There is NO WARRANTY expressed or implied. Buyer buys it AS IS. |

Focus STs for SEMA include Lotus and Gulf liveries, rally-fied police car
Tue, 22 Oct 2013Ford, as we mentioned on Saturday, is pulling out all the stops for November's SEMA show, bringing 57 vehicles to the Las Vegas event. Ford will be staggering the release of its SEMA flotilla, though, so expect to hear a lot about the new additions to the fleet in the weeks to come. We already showed you the Fiesta, Fiesta ST and Mustang models that made up the first batch of SEMA cars. Next up, we have a quartet of modded Focus STs joining Ford's SEMA roster.
Our first Focus ST (pictured above) sports the legendary livery of Gulf Racing. The orange-on-blue scheme, which Ford helped make famous at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, has been updated for 2013, with a more vibrant blue. This ST was built by Universal Technical Institute, while the exterior was done by Neil Tjin of Tjin Edition. Side exhausts, a Vortech supercharger and a Motiv Concepts high-flow cat allow the ST to breathe a bit easier, while Forgestar wheels contrast well with the iconic paint scheme.
Focus ST number two has been done-up by PM Lifestyle and is inspired by "Southern California car culture." Sporting a sleek, pale blue paint job, there's also no shortage of carbon fiber on the car's exterior. The 2.0-liter, turbocharged, four-cylinder engine has been massaged by the likes of Banks Power, COBB Tuning and Ford Racing, while the suspension is wearing a shiny, new set of coilovers and sway bars. The meaty brakes, tucked behind 19-inch, Rotiform wheels, come from Wilwood, while the cabin has been fitted with a pair of Sparco Chrono seats and five-point, Schroth harnesses.
2015 Galpin Ford GTR1
Mon, 25 Aug 2014Last year in Monterey, we met GTR1 for the first time. Galpin Auto Sports pulled the wraps off its Ford GT-based supercar, powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.4-liter V8 good for a whopping 1,024 horsepower and 739 pound-feet of torque. The thing was totally custom-made and reportedly took some 12,000 man hours to create. And there it sat on the Pebble Beach grass, $1,000,000-plus price tag and all.
This year, the Galpin was back, albeit with one big change. That twin-turbo engine? Gone. In its place, a 5.4-liter V8 with a 4.0-liter Whipple supercharger bolted on, delivering an astonishing 1,058 hp and 992 lb-ft of torque on 110-octane fuel. 0-60? 2.9 seconds. Top speed? Somewhere above 225 miles per hour.
"Some things to keep in mind: no stability control, no traction control," were the only warnings given by Galpin's Brandon Boeckmann before taking me on a quick spin in the supercar. And after having my eyes thrown into the back of my skull a few times, laughing hysterically and trying to regain full use of my hearing after my ear drums being bombarded by the apocalyptic roar behind me, Brandon pulled over and said it was my turn, if I was ready to take the wheel.
Ford demonstrates Mustang's new Line Lock burnout feature
Tue, 22 Apr 2014Been saving your pennies for a 2015 Ford Mustang? Put in a few extra shifts or some overtime? Got a great down payment ready? Well, however much you saved for your new pony car, start saving more - you'll need the extra money to spend on tires.
That's because the Mustang will come with a system called Line Lock, which can lock the front brakes electronically, allowing drivers to perform big, dumb, smoky burnouts without moving so much as an inch. It's sort of like launch control, only the average driver might actually use it.
Now, line locks aren't uncommon, particularly in drag racing. Usually, a flip of the switch locks the front brakes. The Mustang, besides offering the system from the factory which is unique in and of itself, looks a bit more involved.
