1953 Ford F100 Custom 4 Door Truck on 2040-cars
Orlando, Florida, United States

Just Toys Classic Cars is Extremely proud to present one of the coolest trucks that you are ever going to see in your lifetime. Before you is a 1953 Ford F100 4 Door 4x4 Custom Truck. Now, we know what you are saying, Ford never made a 4 door truck in 1953. You would be correct in your statement. The owner that came up with this idea was struggling to come up with a way to keep his two door truck at the time that he had purchased from his little league baseball coach. He had fond memories of riding in the back of it to baseball practice when he was a kid. So when the opportunity came about, he purchased it from his old coach for $50. That's right folks $50. Now that you have the back story, let's get into the details. This Blue Angle of a 1953 Ford F100 rides on a 1983 Ford F150 Big Block Chassis. This truck originally had a 400 in it, but later came the current mill under the hood. Now resides a 460 with Cobra Jet heads and 11:1 Compression. All of this is matted to a C6 transmission with a shift kit and a 2500 Stall Converter for good towing. The transfer case as well as the front and rear differential were left stock. Speaking of stock, the owner wanted to keep as many things original as he could. He didn't want to make this a resto mod truck. He wanted to make it as if Ford built it, this is what they would do. The process took 3 cabs and 6 doors to make what you see here. The body and bed were widened to fit on the frame but the hood and the grill are still stock size. In order to start this truck you still turn the key and press the starter button and listen to that 460 come to life. If you need to pull the E-Brake you do it the old fashioned way by the original handle from 1953. This truck has dual tanks with hidden openers and the tank switch is on the drivers side floor just like the original. A third brake light was installed for safety as well. The fenders were widened in order to fit the larger tires, but these are not cheap fiberglass fenders. Again, this truck was built as if Ford did it in 1953. The amount of man hours that went into this truck is immeasurable. The bed was made wider and a tailgate was made for this truck as well. As you will see in the pics there is a class three hitch so you can tow with this truck as well. The seats are out of a 2003 F150, the moonroof is out of an 83 Eldorado, and there is just custom stuff everywhere. This truck speaks for itself. You just have to see it for yourself to believe it. We could go on and on with everything that is done to make this 1953 Ford F100 truck the coolest thing on the planet that you could drive anywhere you want any day of the week. Give us a call today and let's talk about you taking this truck home. We have financing available for those that would like to take advantage of the option. We look forward to speaking with you soon and making you the newest member of the Just Toys Classic Cars Family. |

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang appears at EAA Oshkosh
Sat, 26 Jul 2014Ford is back at the Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture air show in Oshkosh, WI, on July 31 auctioning off its seventh Mustang for charity, and this is one seriously mean looking 2015 'Stang. All of the money from the sale goes to give free introductory flights to young people to get them interested in aviation.
We recently saw this latest EAA Mustang as a sketch. However, it looks a whole lot more menacing in person. Dubbed the Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang, it takes liberal inspiration from Lockheed Martin's latest fighter jet, and the customization makes the pony car look ready for a role in Top Gun.
On the outside, the special Mustang wears titanium-color paint that's offset by a black and yellow stripe running from hood to rear. Out back things get really wild with a mix of bright yellow and black that flows diagonally all the way to the rear spoiler. The design is based on the livery of early production F-35s. If the rousing color scheme isn't enough to get you interested, the car also gets a carbon fiber front splitter and rear diffuser, lowered suspension and a set of custom 21-inch wheels with yellow brake calipers.
Leno talks racing with NASCAR racer Joey Logano
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.
