My 1952 Ford Pickup Street Rod is an awesome combination of Retro Looks match with Today's Performance Standards.
It's Amazing.



Ok, let's get into some specifics. The truck is "motorvated" ...moved by a Mr. Goodwrench Crate 350 (5.7) V8 along 
with a new GM 350 Automatic Transmission. Of course the engine and transmission have been "beefed" up to provide this gorgeous truck with a little more performance than what a stock 350 setup provides. It looks great, sounds great, and performs great as well.

There's about 5000 miles on the truck since completion.





And the radiator is a high performance unit to accommodate the V8 and great Vintage Air Conditioning in the truck.


A lot of innovation went into the building of this fabulous 1952 Ford Pickup Street Rod. 
Did you notice the grille? 
Look directly below and see if you can
figure out what's different about it. Most people can't. 


Of course, the chrome speaks for itself. Most stock 1952 Ford Pickups had the grilles painted white or gray. 
But look a little harder. Notice anything?
The stock 1952 Ford pickup had 3 vertical "teeth" in the grile. THIS ONE HAS 5. 
Isn't that cool? 
This was an expensive modification to complete but this beautiful truck deserves the love and attention it got.

Now here's another fun and totally cool thing to consider.
Look at the cab from the side. Notice anything? 
You probably don't but the cab was "chopped" 2" , meaning that this cab is 2" shorter than a stock cab.
This doesn't effect your comfort at all as there is plenty of headroom.
But it looks soooooooooo good....don't ya think?


The pictures were taking on my cellphone and don't do this amazing truck justice. The paint is actually quite metallic and
it literally grabs your eyes when the sun is shining.
Looks great.


The interior is exceptionally nice and like I mentioned, it has a great Vintage Air Conditioner/Heat Unit that keeps the cab comfortable 
during all times of the year.
And check out that awesome chrome tilt steering column......NICE. 
It has the original gauges to retain the nostalgic look but also has a nice set of modern gauges directly to the right.
Looks totally cool.


Oh, did I mention it has electric windows and a great stereo? Well, it does.



Oh, let me also mention that in the past this truck was used for advertising State Farm Insurance Companies. 
Check out the license plate on the truck. If you sound it out, it says 1 GOOD NEIGHBOR. Speaks for itself.


The only reason I am selling my beautiful truck is I have the "itch" for a really nice trike such as a Boss Hoss Trike, or a Victory Vision Trike, or a Harley Ultra Trike or some similar really nice trike. 
Other than this "itch" of mine, I would not be selling my truck.

Ok, some details about the auction. 
I will not sell to foreign buyers but I will work with buyers from Canada and Mexico.
I will not ship but will cooperate with the shipper of your choice or you can fly into the El Paso, TX International airport where I will pick you up and you can drive it home. And it will be a great ride.

Bidders with a 5 or less feedback rating need to call me first at 915-276-1505 
to discuss how you would pay, etc or your bid(s) can and probably will be removed without notice. 

I reserve the right to remove the auction at anytime as the truck is advertised elsewhere as well. 
However, if the auction meets the reserve, I will complete the sale on eBay regardless of any other outside offers I may get.

If payment is made with any kind of check, the truck and title will not be released until the check has had sufficient time to clear my bank. 

Or you can deposit the money directly into my Wells Fargo account. 

Thanks for looking at my truck

I have been asked what type of front end the truck has and I apologize for the oversight. It has a Mustang II front end with power disc brakes. Handles and stops real nice

2015 Ford Focus gets more Aston-y [w/video]

Tue, 04 Mar 2014

With more and more members of the Ford brand adopting a new familial face, the Focus has been left looking like an odd man out. At the Geneva Auto Show, though, it properly rejoined the family, adopting the now familiar Aston Martin-ish grille that's proliferated throughout the range.
Overall, we're liking the refreshed Focus' look. Aside from the new grille, the headlights have been restyled and now look like elongated versions of the lamps on the Focus ST. Functionally, those headlamps are bi-xenon units, complete with an adaptive front lighting system. Out back, the rear retains the same overall look, which has been smoothed out for 2015.
In the cabin, the second-generation of Ford's much-maligned Sync system makes its debut. Sync 2, as it's called, is supposedly more intuitive than the first-gen system. Ford is promising "one-shot" navigation functions for the system. Saying "I'm hungry," should bring up a list of nearby restaurants. Of course, we'll be reserving final judgment until we can test the new system in person.

2015 F-150 launch to curb Ford profits?

Thu, 30 Jan 2014

Ford is making a big bet on aluminum with its new 2015 F-150, and it's possible that the decision will hurt the company financially, at least in the short term. After earning a record $8.6 billion in 2013, the Blue Oval does not expect to set another record in 2014. According to Automotive News, that's "largely attributable to F Series," says Bob Shanks, Ford's Chief Financial Officer.
To retool for the new F-150, Ford will idle its Dearborn Truck Plant in Michigan for 11 weeks and the Ford Kansas City Assembly Plant in Missouri for 2 weeks. "3 of the 13 overall weeks occur during what normally is our summer shutdown timeframe," said Mike Levine, Ford Trucks Communication Manager, in an email to Autoblog. The extra 10 weeks will be preparing for the more aluminum-intensive construction for the trucks and will mean over 2 months of no F-150s being made. For comparison's sake, Chrysler boss Sergio Marchionne just confirmed that the 200 plant in Sterling Heights, MI will be down for 30 days to retool for the new model, but obviously there are many more F-150 production variables than for the midsize sedan.
Levine notes that Ford is already running three shifts at both plants, and says the automaker has plans to ensure that there is adequate supply of the full-size pickups during the retooling process. The company does not want to suffer a shortage of the vehicle that accounted for 31-percent of its 2013 US sales and an even bigger percentage of its profits.

Ford recalls 600,000 older-model sedans for braking issue

Fri, Dec 20 2019

Ford is recalling 600,166 older-model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles over an issue that could affect braking and increase the risk of a crash. The safety recall covers certain Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years that were built at Ford’s Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico between Feb. 22, 2006, and July 15, 2009. Ford says a valve that is normally closed inside the hydraulic control unit may get stuck in the open position or be slow to close, which could make it harder to engage the brakes and increase risk of a crash. Ford says itÂ’s aware of 15 reports of accidents and two injuries possibly related to the issue. Dealers will inspect the hydraulic control unit for signs of the problem and replace it, if necessary. The dealers will pressure-flush the system with brake fluid and replace the reservoir cap with a new one. Ford is also issuing a small recall of 33 of its 2020 F-150 trucks in the U.S. and 51 in Canada over potentially damaged spare tires. It says the bead area on the tires may have been damaged when it was mounted onto the wheel assembly, leaving it vulnerable to corrosion, separation of the bead wire and ultimately a rapid loss of air pressure and detachment from the wheel. Dealers will replace the spare tire. Affected vehicles were built at the Dearborn Truck Plant from Nov. 10-21 of this year.
