You are looking at a real California Custom Cruiser that the whole family can enjoy! This 1957 Ford has the right "Kustom Kulture Look" The body is straight and solid shot in Grey high fill primer, ready for paint. It starts, drives and stops very well. It has a low mileage 292 cu in Y-Block engine with a new 2 barrel Holley carburetor, great on gas. The “Three on the Tree” Transmission shifts well. I have replaced the battery, coil, distributor cap, rotor, condenser, plugs wires, put an electric fuel pump on it, all wiring has been either replaced or fixed, new starter solenoid, new 12 Volt “One Wire alternator” conversion with custom brackets, put a cut off switch in for the battery it's under the dash so it's hidden installed it because these cars were easy to hot wire, radiator was removed flushed, new upper and lower hoses, all new vacuum hoses, water pump was replaced. Purrs like a kitten, runs like a cheetah, and stays cool like Fonzi.

This rare Model 300 Ford is a lowered ride with de-arched reversed eyed leaf springs and blocks in the back, lowering springs in the front. Brand new Radial White Wall Tires on 14" Black Steelies with original Ford hubcaps. The drivers side front flat door glass has a crack (not in drivers view), while the back window and the rest of the glass is crack free. New exhaust and gas tank. I built my own gas tank to match the old one exactly, replaced all gas lines and in have a new sending unit just haven't installed it yet, but included. The Brakes have a new master cylinder and rebuilt wheel cylinders, brakes were bled and adjusted, stops on a dime.

This "One of a Kind" Sedan has many new and upgraded parts, well over 10K invested!

The interior is very comfortable with new carpet, all trim was removed and painted, seats are all original but not in the best shape very small rips in the front and stained I've cleaned them up the best I could and don't look to bad, I have kept everything on the interior original so rear door panels have been cleaned and fixed, front door panels are usable and included they will need new chip board.

Originally sold in San Jose California and used as a Fed Service Car. It has all the holes in dash and room from where the CB radio and police lights were mounted. The holes in the roof were filled though so you can't see them from the outside. I also installed a custom bracket in the back seat for children car seats since there are no seat belts.


This is a California car and has always been to the best of my knowledge, a daily driver with clear California title. Visible Vin and Body Tags. I built this car for someone to just enjoy a nice daily driver or take it to shows it's not perfect it's not a trailer queen by any means but it's a cool car and there are not many around. Drive as is or restore it, must see to appreciate!!! CALL (916)308 zero eight seven 4 or message me for details

2014 Ford Mustang GT

Fri, 17 May 2013

I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.

Meet Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller, Iowa's latest hatchet-wielding criminal

Fri, Jul 11 2014

Well, we've found the long-lost cousin of yesterday's Bentley-tattooed criminal from Florida. This is Shelby Mustang GT500 Miller. No, seriously. While his name seems just like the sort of thing we'd expect the Sunshine State to produce, he actually hails from Iowa. Despite coming from the Hawkeye State, Miller was arrested for a decidedly Floridian offense – getting in a bar fight and then returning with a hatchet. The only way this story could be more Florida is if meth, a manatee or bath salts were involved. The fight, which was at the Cheap Seats Sports Bar, started off typically enough, with a verbal argument in the parking lot (please, please let his nemesis be named "Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Smith"). This, naturally, attracted passing police officers. Things were broken up and some friends took Miller to his home, which was apparently just behind the bar. That's when he returned with the hatchet tucked under his shirt. Miller promptly proceeded to take out the implement of destruction in the bar's bathroom and... forget about it entirely. Fortunately, the police hadn't left the area yet. Not surprisingly, Miller was arrested for a parole violation, as well as public intoxication and going armed with intent. Still, cool name, bro.
