Offering for sale my 1966 Ford Shop Truck. 1966 with a 1965 grill. Has been my daily driver for the past 4 years. I found this truck with a blown transmission and could not get over how straight and original it is. I wanted something that ran hard and drove like a late model car so I started removing the original running gear, motor and transmission. A 1992 Caprice cop car donated all the lower suspension. Truck now has power steering, power 12" disc brakes, big G.M. rear end, transmission and sway bars from the cop car. A 1975 Cadillac Eldorado 500 c.i. motor was installed using an adaptor to the 700r4 transmission. This truck runs hard and drives like a full size car. I haul parts for my shop around all the time with this truck including large v8 motors and it never bottoms out. You can turn lock to lock and the front wheels never rub. Truly a fun and functional daily driver. The following parts were all new at the time of completion and I have driven the truck over 12,000 trouble free miles since. New Torque Thrust wheels and tires. New radiator, exhaust system, fuel lines and filter. Old gas tank was flushed. All gauges, heater, stop, turn and emergency flashers work. New seat upholstery, headliner and door panels. Original floor covering. Axillary gas tanks were converted to lockable storage boxes. This old truck is in remarkable condition for it's age and would be one to take to the next level it that's your thing. We love driving it and get lots of looks and thumbs up while driving it as is. Nothing wrong with it at this time. Fly in and drive it home or I will help with shipping. I have been building custom cars and trucks most of my life and 12,000 trouble free miles since the build should tell you something. Has life time collector plates if you are in Washington state so if you are from Washington state, you will never have to buy license again. If you have questions, feel free to give me a call. 509-684-5723

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort
Fri, 24 May 2013Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.
Marchionne open to combination with Ford or GM
Fri, Mar 13 2015At the depths of the auto industry implosion, there was widely reported talk that General Motors and Chrysler would be merged into a mighty import-beating behemoth. While such notions clearly never materialized, that doesn't mean the idea is dead. In fact, FCA boss Sergio Marchionne still welcomes the idea of a partnership with either GM or Ford. He responded positively to the idea, calling it "technically feasible," when asked about it at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, Automotive News reports. "There's bantering that goes on all the time," Marchionne told AN, before quashing suspicions that a plan was in the works by adding that "nothing substantive" was going on. Our favorite black sweater enthusiast isn't quite as interested in the idea of teaming with a foreign manufacturer like PSA Peugeot Citroen, or in the rumored tie-up with Volkswagen, though. That is a shame, particularly in regards to Marchionne's shut down of a partnership with the French, although it isn't necessarily surprising – FCA already consists of eight automakers, and as Sergio told AN, there's really nothing at PSA that could help the company out. What are your thoughts? Is there an obvious project or segment that would benefit from an FCA partnership with Ford or GM? Have your say in Comments.
