SELLING A COOL OLD TRUCK, I FOUND IT IN A GARAGE ABOUT A YEAR AGO.  IT IS AN OLD SCHOOL HOT ROD.  IT IS A 1950 FORD F1.  BUT YEARS AGO SOME ONE INSTALLED A 57 STUDEBAKER 289 V-8.   IT IS FAST  I DID NOT KNOW STUDES MOVED LIKE THAT. HERE IS WHAT I DID TO THE TRUCK SINCE I HAVE HAD IT. NEW FIBERGLASS FRONT FENDERS, UPPERS AND LOWERS.  ALL NEW BRAKES.  NEW MASTER CYL, NEW WHEEL CYL, NEW SHOES, AND LINES.   IT STOPS JUST FINE.  NEW FEUL PUMP. ( I WAS SURPRISED ,NAPA STILL CARRYS  PARTS FOR A STUDEBAKER). NEW WINDSHEILD, AND NEW BACK GLASS. HEADLIGHTS WORK BOTH HIGH AND LOW BEAMS, HAS TAIL LIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS.  THE ONLY THING STOPPING THIS FROM BEING A DAILY DRIVER IS THAT THE GAS TANK NEEDS CLEANED OUT A LITTLE BETTER. IT TENDS TO PLUG UP THE FILTER ABOUT EVERY 10 MILES.   THE FLOOR OF THE BED WAS GONE, I JUST HAVE A SHEET OF PLY WOOD IN THERE. THERE ARE A FEW SPOTS IN THE SIDES OF THE BED AND ON THE REAR FENDERS, WHERE I WELDED IN A PATCH OR TWO. LOOKS OK FOR A DAILY DRIVER OR A PARTS RUNNER. BUT NOT SHOW QUALITY. THE BOTTOM OF THE DOORS ARE GONE. THEY WILL NEED PATCHED. I TOOK A CLOSE UP OF THEM. THE CAB CORNERS WERE SOLID, AS WELL AS THE CAB FLOOR. NOT PERFECT BUT SOLID. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL SEAT BUT NEEDS RECOVERED. GUAGES ARE THERE BUT NOT SURE IF THEY WORK. I UNHOOKED THE WIRE THAT FEEDS THEM SO I WOULD NOT BURN THEM UP, WHEN I SWITCHED THE LIGHS AND IGINITION OVER TO 12 VOLTS. DOOR GLASS ON DRIVERA SIDE IS CRACKED (20 BUCKS) AT A GLASS SHOP. THE WINDSHEILD  ONLY WAS $50 THE WING WINDOWS ARE CRACKED AS WELL.  FRAME IS STILL SOLID MOTOR RUNS , TRANS IS GOOD, REAR END IS GOOD.  IF YOU LIVED CLOSE 10 MILES OR LESS YOU COULD DRIVE IT HOME. NEEDS AN EXHAUST. HAS MANIFOLDS AND ABOUT 10" OF PIPE ON EACH SIDE. RUNNING BOARDS ARE HAVE SOME HOLES,BUT ARE STILL STRONG ENOUGH TO STAND ON.  HAS A SMALL WATER LEAK AT THE WATER PUMP AND A SMALL OIL LEAK. NOT TO SURE IF THE BATT IS CHARGING. THE VENT ON THE COWL BEHIND THE HOOD IS RUST AROUND THE EDGES. TIRES ARE OLD AND HARD.  THEY ARE 15". THERE IS AN OLD PATCH MADE BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER ON THE PASS SIDE REAR FENDER, DOWN BY THE RUNNING BOARD. I TOOK A CLOSE UP OF THIS, SINCE IT WAS THERE I LEFT IT ALONE. FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTION, OR COME LOOK AT IT.

Ford GT40 makes historic return to racing at Goodwood

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Is there a more iconic, American racecar than the Ford GT40? That may be a discussion for another day (although by all means, tell us how wrong we are in Comments), but this video of heaps of GT40s running in the Goodwood Revival races certainly has us thinking that Ford's Ferrari-killer might just be the best racer the Land Of The Free and Home Of The Brave has ever come up with.
That's completely ignoring the fact that the GT40 was largely developed by Brits using American money, but that's besides the point (there was also a rather brash Texan, who had a big role later in development). The resulting vehicle was dominant, besting the cars of Il Commendatore from 1966 to 1969, although it should be noted that Ford's GT40 was unable to beat Ferrari in its first two Le Mans outings in 1964 and 1965.
Those four years of dominance, which started with Ford sweeping the podium, were enough to establish the GT40's legend. And now, here we are almost 50 years later, celebrating the mid-engined monsters at Goodwood, in their first ever one-make race. Take a look below for the entire video.

Toyota, Ford not interested in FCA merger

Mon, Jun 15 2015

Sergio Marchionne will preach the benefits of mergers to anyone who'll listen, but his calls for industry consolidation may be falling on deaf ears. At least, that is, the ears of those who the Fiat Chrysler chief would most like to bend. Not only is General Motors uninterested, but according to The Detroit News, neither are Toyota or Ford. "It's something we would not be interested in," said Toyota's North American chief Jim Lentz, at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Toyota Technical Center. "At 10 million (vehicles) we have enough scale right now to do what we need to do. There really would be no advantage for us." Toyota isn't the only one unenthused by the prospect of merging with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The Detroit News also reports that Ford, though it may yet to have been approached by Marchionne, wouldn't be interested either. "We're not a suitor for FCA," said Ford CFO Bob Shanks. "We don't see that type of opportunity as one that applies to us." With GM, Toyota, and Ford expressing disinterest in Marchionne's merger idea, the FCA chief will likely start looking elsewhere – or look for other ways to compel his primary candidate to reconsider. He may eventually find a partner – more likely in the Far East or within Europe – but it may not take the form of the major player Sergio has hoped for.

We spy the Ford Mustang King Cobra early at SEMA

Tue, 04 Nov 2014

As is the case with most auto shows, waiting for the reveal of hot new models is the worst part. So, while our own Drew Phillips has been wandering the halls here in Las Vegas since they unlocked the doors for SEMA 2014, we didn't expect him to come back with any big reveals until later in the day. Until this happened.
Meandering by the Ford stand, Phillips eagle-eyed a trunk lid that caught his attention. Popping out from an otherwise draped 2015 Mustang, the matte black lid clearly has the name King Cobra embossed on the rear.
That name is interesting for a few reasons: to start, Ford hasn't used the Cobra name (without "Jet" attached) since way back in 2004, so a new snake is certainly something to take note of. Second, the King Cobra name dates all the way back to the ill-remembered Mustang II, meaning there is a clear link to Blue Oval history here.
