1956 F100 Pickup Street Rod Hot Rod On 2000 Lightning Chassis on 2040-cars
Belleville, Michigan, United States
|
I'm considering selling my 1956 F100 project project. I'll try to capture all the info here I can think of, but will probably be missing some of it. To start, it's a 1956 F100 on a 2000 Lightning chassis and drivetrain. I drove the Lightning from Mass to MI and stripped it down. The Lightning has a reman Ford engine and there is a tag on the engine verifying that. Engine and trans have about 10K miles on them and run great. Engine has a 6lb pulley, aftermarket throttle body and idler pulleys. With a good tune, it should put out around 400 hp and 500 lbs/tq at the rear wheels. The Lightning chassis is complete, so you get all the benefit of the Lightning chassis, handling, ride quality, comfort and ABS. The 56 is all metal and any patch work has been done in all metal. The only bondo is for smoothing and blending. All metal has been dipped or sandblasted, coated with epoxy primer and then high build primer, so it's sealed well. Custom floorboards and firewall. All the computer and wiring harness is here, along with a SCT tuner to bypass emissions and PATS if needed. I have several other fenders and extra parts that can go with it, like aftermarket steering column, Lightning A/C, radiator, 56 grill, hardwood for the bed and I'm sure there is more. The body is loosely bolted down and together. A lot of the hardwork has been done, but there is still a lot of work to be done. This is a great project for someone that is interested in having a one of a kind 56 that rides and drives great and can go anywhere. The stance in the pics is basically the ride height. If you need more detail, message me with your phone number and I will call you back. I reserve the right to end the auction early. |

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?
Sat, Sep 23 2017If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.

Ford readying Ranger-based Everest SUV?
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Way back in August, we showed you a Ford concept for the Australian market called the Everest. Now, we can show you that work on the new Ranger-based SUV is well under way.
At this stage, it's still quite clearly a mule (note the misalignment of the front and rear doors), wearing the Ranger's front end and the rump of Ford's overseas Territory crossover. The wheelbase is shorter than a Ranger, according to our spy photographers, which strikes us as somewhat odd for a more passenger-oriented vehicle. Disc brakes should be fitted at all four corners, while the new SUV, which will almost certainly wear the Everest name, should sport a new rear suspension.
In terms of looks, we're expecting the Everest Concept to inform the appearance of the production model. Naturally, there will also be some interior tweaks, particularly around the dashboard, which is covered in these photos.
US Air Force Thunderbirds Mustang fetches $400K at auction
Wed, 07 Aug 2013For the last six years, Ford has created a special version of the Mustang with a military aviation theme, and then donated the car to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) to be auctioned off at the annual AirVenture event, also known as The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration. The money raised goes to the EAA Young Eagles program to inspire the "aviation pioneers of tomorrow," and this year's 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition was won with a final bid of $398,000.
Celebrating 60 years of the USAF's Thunderbirds, this Mustang GT is the only one of its kind with a paint job matching the Thunderbirds' F-16 Falcon jets and some Ford Racing performance added on for good measure. Including this car, Ford has helped raise around $2.3 million for the charity with the biggest auction price coming from the first year of the program, the F-22 Raptor-inspired Mustang AV8R from 2008, which sold for $500,000.
