Classic, Vintage, Hot Rod, Show Truck, Fully Restored, Old School, Iconic F100 on 2040-cars
Orem, Utah, United States
1956 Ford F100 I've owned several '56 F100's over the years and this is by far one of my favorites. I purchased this from an elderly gentleman in Salt Lake City who had an extensive restoration done on the truck back in 1994-95. He had most all of the work done professionally. Once restored he drove it on an occassional Sunday afternoon and took it to local car shows. Up until I purchased it last summer it sat in his garage for the better part of the last 10 years and was started regularly and looked after by his son. Since purchasing it I have made several changes to my liking to turn it into what you see today. Recent upgrades/changes include: NEW Aluminum Radiator Tune-up Brand NEW BFGoodrich T/A Radials all around Brand NEW Cragar "Steelies" Chrome Wheels w/Moon Caps from Summit Racing Sanded and refinished the CHERRYWOOD bed panels Added "Shorty" rear bumper brackets Added NEW spare tire cover All NEW hood emblems and step plates from Vintage Ford Brand NEW custom made and professionally installed interior (seat upholstery and door panels---great quality and workmanship) Running boards freshly painted to match Cranberry Red body color (they were originally black) I'm probably forgetting a few things, but that about covers it. The truck runs great, drives great, and shifts through all gears properly and smoothly. Mechanically it is very solid with no fluid leaks. The engine is the ORIGINAL 272 CID Y-block V8 with the original "3 on the tree" manual transmission. Both the engine and the transmission were rebuilt when the truck was restored in '94-95. Very few miles have been put on the truck since the rebuild/restoration. The truck drives straight down the road and the brakes work great as well. All of the glass is in perfect condition (no chips, cracks, or scratches) and all window seals are new. The interior shows beautifully and the combination of the black upholstery, red dash/metal, and white headliner is sharp looking. All body panels line up as they should and the doors shut and open nicely. New door latch hardware was also installed on both door jambs. The interior looks and smells new. The Cherrywood bed looks amazing next to the Cranberry Red paint. All chrome is in fantastic shape. The pictures show just how nice this '56 is. I know the new owner will be very pleased. There is no rust or rot anywhere on the truck. I would rate the paint a solid 9 out of 10. The only reason I wouldn't give it a 10 is there are a few small paint "nicks" here and there that happened while it was stored that have been touched up. They're small enough that they wouldn't show in pictures. It shows very respectfully and will draw a crowd and compliments at any show. Feel free to ask any questions before bidding. I'm happy to give my phone number to serious buyers to discuss the truck. Please only bid if you have the finances in order to complete the purchase. It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway, this is a 58 year old vehicle and as such is an "as is" sale with no warranties expressed or implied. Buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements but I will help all I can on my end to make it go smoothly for your transport. I have used several shippers in the past that I've been very pleased with and can recommend them to the buyer if needed. Good luck and Bid to Win !! |

Fallon picks Ford F-150 King Ranch, launches dealership contest
Tue, 01 Apr 2014New truck! Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show has been searching for the perfect new truck for a few weeks now, soliciting help from all corners in the process. Last night, Fallon made the announcement that the Ford F-150 King Ranch - in all of its cowboy glory - had been picked as his big winner.
To add some more spice to a storyline that now dips deeply into the realm of the advertorial, Fallon also announced a contest to see which Ford dealership would get the privilege of selling him the King Ranch. Dubbed "Fingers on a 4x4" The Tonight Show has invited 10 dealer reps from around the country to keep their hands on Jimmy's F-150 for as long as possible. Last salesperson standing wins.
Watch Fallon make his pick and introduce the dealer reps below, and be sure to click on the second video for a live-streaming feed of Fingers on a 4x4 in action (the contest seems to be going strong).
Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California
Wed, 31 Jul 2013In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:
Ford F-150 RaptorTrax is Ken Block's ultimate snowmobile
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Even when Ken Block isn't starring in the latest Gymkhana video or tearing up Global RallyCross courses, he's finding new ways to redefine "awesome" as it applies to motorsports. For evidence of this, look no further than Block's latest Monster-badged creation, the Ford F-150 RaptorTrax.
Billed as the "world's fastest snowcat," the RaptorTrax started life as a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, and then a set of Mattracks were put in place where the truck's bead-locked wheels and meaty rubber once resided. The goal was to create a truck that made it easier - and presumably more fun - for Block and his buddies to hit the slopes on their snowboards. Aside from the obvious track upgrades, this truck also received a Whipple supercharger, full roll cage, Recaro seats, an in-bed snowboard rack, a roof basket and a rear-mounted winch - you know, just in case something or someone actually manages to get this truck stuck.
The RaptorTrax will be on display later this week at the Winter X Games in Apsen, CO, but we'll have to wait until next winter for a full Block-worthy video of the truck. A full press release from Hoonigan Racing Division is posted below, and a high-res image can be found by clicking above.
