Up for auction is a nice, clean, original, 1947 1-1/2 ton Ford Truck with a flathead V-8 with 28,086 original miles, 4 speed tranny, and like new tires, straight off the original farm where it spent it's entire life. It' pretty much original except for one re-paint. No frills, pretty simple truck from simpler times. It's pretty much get in and go, this truck looks and drives like it's actually less than 10 years old, not 66 yrs old, runs great, we drove 2 hrs. on a major highway to get her home and it ran flawless. I documented any flaws in my pics, but I'm going to lay them out so as to represent the truck as best as I can, nothing major, but I'm an honest seller and want you to know what I know, and see it like you were here. There is a chip in each fender, about 1-1/2 inches each, a few of the windows have small cracks, the driver side door has a crack in the paint at the bottom of door, due to a repair, most likely from rust, as these doors were prone to rustain as water ran down the window and collected in the bottom of the door, draining poorly, I would say the door needs a patch panel and a repaint to make it perfect, form 10' away it looks good, the headliner in these trucks are cardboard, and are known for mice building nests in them, well, one did, and ate a 3" hole in it, repro headliners are about 50 bucks, the passenger side door is locked shut and I have no key for it, the rubber floor mat has a few small wear holes, and that's abt. it, pretty cut and dry, as I said, nothing major, but wanted to run them thru for you so you can pick anything out in the pics and know what you are bidding on. As I said, nice , clean, 28,000 original mile truck, that looks and drives like it's 10 yrs. old, daily driver, car shows, tow vehicle for you street rod, parades, hay rides, apple picking, historical, museum interests, even advertising your businesss, this truck turns heads, and every one that sees it loves it. Good luck bidding !

Ford F-150 RaptorTrax is Ken Block's ultimate snowmobile
Tue, 21 Jan 2014Even when Ken Block isn't starring in the latest Gymkhana video or tearing up Global RallyCross courses, he's finding new ways to redefine "awesome" as it applies to motorsports. For evidence of this, look no further than Block's latest Monster-badged creation, the Ford F-150 RaptorTrax.
Billed as the "world's fastest snowcat," the RaptorTrax started life as a Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, and then a set of Mattracks were put in place where the truck's bead-locked wheels and meaty rubber once resided. The goal was to create a truck that made it easier - and presumably more fun - for Block and his buddies to hit the slopes on their snowboards. Aside from the obvious track upgrades, this truck also received a Whipple supercharger, full roll cage, Recaro seats, an in-bed snowboard rack, a roof basket and a rear-mounted winch - you know, just in case something or someone actually manages to get this truck stuck.
The RaptorTrax will be on display later this week at the Winter X Games in Apsen, CO, but we'll have to wait until next winter for a full Block-worthy video of the truck. A full press release from Hoonigan Racing Division is posted below, and a high-res image can be found by clicking above.
Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod
Tue, 21 Oct 2014Woodie wagons were a major part of surfing culture in the 1960s, offering coastal style and a ton of room, and they even earned a mention in the Beach Boys' classic song Surfin' Safari. This week, Jay Leno's Garage takes a look at two modern, restomodded examples of these style icons.
Unlike a lot of restomods, builder Scott Bonowski keeps these wagons looking almost completely stock on the outside, and all of the upgrades are hidden underneath the timber. You can't tell by looking at it, but the '37 Woodie (pictured above) has independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes and a Ford 5.0-liter V8 under the hood.
Beyond the mechanical aspect, the craftsmanship into the wood is astounding. Bonowski claims there are between 30 and 50 coats of varnish on this wagon. It makes these woodies as much of a piece of fine furniture as a vehicle to drive.
J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang
Thu, 05 Dec 2013J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
