Fresh off the farm is this cool 1935 Ford 1.5 Ton hot rod looking truck! This truck was redone by the son of the local ford dealership up in Wisconsin years ago as a winter project. The truck ran and drove around the parking lot last fall before putting in storage, truck needs to be tinkered on to get running again this spring. The truck looks cool, has a amature paint job on it, scratches and paint runs. Cab looks very solid all the way around even the back lower pan is nice and the back of the cab isn't all dented up. The doors open and close nicely and are solid, driver door has two bullet holes coming out from the inside. Headlites will work and gauges are nice. Windshield opens and closes nicely. Has a good gas tank in the cab, no seat. Hood looks good with nice louvers and V8 emblems. Truck has the original old V8 in there looks good and clean. Has a good radiator grille shell and nice stainless trim with v8 emblem. Truck has a nice wood bed that was built for it and nice side rails. Truck has cool exhaust stacks that go up, can be kept or taken off. Front fenders are good, they have some dings and need some work but still the good old metal. This is a nice truck that is still a good weekend project. All of the hard work has been done it looks years ago, still will need some time to tinker to get running again and air in the tires. This is a good project to work on the weekends and enjoy. You don't find nice ones like this very often, a lot of the time they are rusty and have been sitting in the fields for many years. Check out all the pictures and see what you think. Please ask all questions before you bid. The winner will need to make a down payment of 300.00 paypal when auction ends and full payment within 7 days of the auction ending, cash on pickup or bank check. Truck needs to be picked up within 1 week of auction ending. There is no title with this truck, it was lost. I have original registeration for it. I can provide a bill of sale. Thank you and good luck!

2014 Ford Cobra Jet announced with new colors, parachute mount

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Ford's drag-strip-ready Mustang Cobra Jet is back for 2014, and it's sporting a few changes to make it even better - both in competition and while sitting still. Rolling off the assembly line ready for duty in the NHRA Stock or Super Stock classes, production of the 2014 Cobra Jet is limited to just 50 units.
Racing upgrades for 2014 include the addition of a new three-speed transmission and a parachute mount, and while these will make the car better in the quarter mile, the Cobra Jet's new colors will make it look better tearing down the track. Buyers can now get their racecars painted up in Gotta Have-It Green or a custom, Cobra Jet-exclusive matte black hue. Ford and Ford Racing have already teamed up to make this an incredible factory drag racer with a full rollcage, massive Hoosier slicks, a race-tuned suspension setup and a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. Now, if only wheelie bars came standard...
Unlike the confusing third-party ordering system announced for the COPO Camaro, all you need to snatch up a 2014 Cobra Jet is $97,990 and good timing (as the cars will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis). Ordering opens up next month with production commencing in July. Check out the press release below.

More evidence GT500-replacement will be named GT350

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

During the recent unveiling of the 2015 Ford Mustang, we saw the car in both V6 and GT form, but we'll have to wait a little bit longer to see the successor to the Shelby GT500. In the meantime, though, it looks like SVTPerformance.com has confirmed reports that this high-performance model will bring the Shelby GT350 name back to Ford.
According to the forum post, a user found the Shelby GT350 name on a Ford promo website listing its 2015 lineup. The Shelby GT350 name was first used on a Mustang back in 1965, and most recently it has been a model created for customers as a post-title purchase by Shelby American. As for that car, Shelby confirmed earlier in the year that its GT350 would be phased out at the end of this month.
The million-dollar question for Mustang and Shelby enthusiasts is when we'll see next factory Shelby GT350. Last we heard it was planned for a debut at the New York Auto Show. We've included our previous spy shots of this hi-po, sixth-gen Mustang, and we've also captured it on spy video showing off its exhaust note.

Man has surgery to remove T-Bird turn signal that's been in his arm for 51 years

Fri, Jan 2 2015

In 1963, real estate agent Arthur Lampitt was driving a new Ford Thunderbird near East Peoria, Illinois on his way to an appointment when he collided head-on with a truck. A massive accident that was so bad that it was originally reported as a fatal crash, Lampitt suffered a broken hip and that became the focus of doctors' efforts. In fact, no one noticed the fact that the turn-signal stalk had been broken off the steering column and had lodged itself in Lampitt's arm. Fast-forward to around ten years ago, when Lampitt set off a courthouse metal detector because of a "slender object, about the size of a pencil" in his arm. Despite that unnerving discovery, the doctor who examined Lampitt said that since it didn't hurt, he needn't worry about it. This year, however, it did start hurting and the affected arm started to bulge. Lampitt decided to have the issue seen to, and suspected it might have something to do with his 1963 accident. When he looked through photos of the wreck taken by a friend, he noticed the turn-signal stalk of the Thunderbird missing and figured that was the culprit. After a 45-minute outpatient surgery, the surgeon verified it: a slim, slightly bent and corroded, seven-inch metal cylinder with a trumpeted end. The surgeon said a protective pocket had formed around it, which is why it could remain in Lampitt's arm so long, but it was still unusual - "We see all kinds of foreign objects like nails or pellets, but usually not this large." Lampitt, who is expected to make a full recovery, says he might make a keychain out of it, once he's done just holding it.
