This is a lovingly maintained Ford Custom 300. Over the last two years I have had the car repainted, installed new custom wheels and tires, refreshed all brake components, installed new aluminum radiator and custom radiator support painted to match car body, installed a new electric thermostatically controlled cooling fan, relocated battery box to the trunk, installed custom front springs (25% increase in load, dropped 1"), installed rear air shocks to provide slight forward rack, installed new exhaust that includes stainless steel tips, undercoated entire bottom of car, installed new seat covers and carpets, removed and repainted interior trim to match body, installed new window lacing and gaskets on doors, installed custom door panels that incorporate the body colors with a bit of stainless steel. This car runs and drives great. It is not a daily driver but gets a reasonable amount of street time in the evenings and weekends. This one is a pleasure to drive and gets a ton of looks as it has the look, stance and sound of an old Hot Rod. The overdrive transmission in conjunction with the big gears provides great acceleration with very good highway manners.
I am selling this one as is where is with no warranties expressed or implied simply because of the nature of an antique. Feel free to ask any question I am willing to send pictures of anything you wish to see prior to bidding. Please don't bid if you are not serious about buying this car since I would hate to see someone miss out on a great deal on a great car.

Ford Fusion demand outstripping supply
Sat, 15 Jun 2013The attractive new 2013 Ford Fusion has done wonders for the brand in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment - the vehicle is up nearly 22 percent compared to last year. But that sales momentum may soon hold steady due to low inventory levels of the new Fusion across the United States.
According to a report in The Detroit News, citing automotive data and Ward's Auto, Ford currently has a 39-day supply of the Fusion. That might sound fine, but a normally healthy average is about a 60-day supply. If Ford were to stop production on the Fusion today, there would only be enough vehicles available to get through another five weeks of sales, according to the News.
Currently, Ford produces the Fusion at its three-shift assembly plant in Hermosillo, Mexico, and will add production at its facility in Flat Rock, MI later this year. A Ford spokesperson told The Detroit News that when Flat Rock production comes online, the automaker will need to rush new stock out to the regions with the most demand for the Fusion. Ford has doubled its coastal retail market share, with huge amounts of growth in areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami, the News reports.
Ford unveils all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 at NTEA
Tue, 04 Mar 2014Medium-duty work trucks might not be the most exciting vehicles, but they perform necessary jobs everyday. Ford is in the process of a complete refresh of its entire commercial vehicle lineup over the next 18 months, and it is debuting the all-new versions of its F-650 and F-750 trucks at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN.
"The all-new F-650/F-750 allow us to leverage our strengths and sales leadership in Classes 1 to 5 to create a better F-650/F-750 that's designed, engineered and built by Ford in the USA," said Ford spokesperson Mike Levine to Autoblog via email.
Huge amounts of torque is vital for trucks like these, and both models are offered with some of Fords biggest engines. Buyers can opt for either the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel with TorqShift 6-speed automatic with available power takeoff or a gasoline-fueled 6.8-liter V10 with a 6-speed automatic. The V10 can also be ordered from the factory to be fueled by compressed natural gas or liquid propane gas.
Plethora of 2015 Ford F-150 customs runs the gamut at SEMA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014
Of Ford's customized trucks, two feature the name of famous Ford racers.
Of all the OEMs making appearances at the 2014 SEMA show, Ford owns arguably the most significant group of vehicles, thanks to its new 2015 F-150 and Mustang. While you can look for our Mustang coverage soon, we've managed to sneak out and get snaps of some of a few of the F-150s on display at the company's sprawling, 20,000-square-foot display (look for even more aftermarket F-150 goodness in the coming days).
