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

Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.

Woman reunited with stolen Mustang after 28 years

Sun, Dec 28 2014

An enthusiast Christmas story: Salinas, California resident Lynda Alsip bought a 1967 Ford Mustang in 1984 when she was 17 years old, having saved $800 after a summer of toil at a grocery store. She got a vanity plate that read "LYNDA67," for the year she was born, but she only got to enjoy the car for two years: in 1986, after a night out, someone stole it from her apartment complex. She hadn't seen it since. Then a man – another Salinas resident – tried to register the car at the DMV this year. He said he bought it as a project car in 1991, yet the DMV couldn't find any record of it. The DMV office sent the case of the untraceable car to the California Highway Patrol, where Officer Christopher Menchen dug into the records, and his search paid off. The officer located Alsip's stolen record report from 1986 and connected the Mustang to it's registered owner in 1986, who was Alsip's mother. The CHP found the forest green Mustang in the man's garage, and they figure it's been there since 1991. After waiting through the still-ongoing three-month investigation, the CHP reunited Alsip – now a wife and a mother of two – with her car on December 22. It's undriveable, but her original vanity plate is back on and she plans to restore it. The video above has the story.

Former Ford CEO Mulally won't run for president

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."
