A few weeks back I was told by a friend that his neighbor in Rancho Cucamonga CA had this 56 F100 sitting under a covered canopy in his back yard and of course, being a 56 Ford enthusiast, I had to check it out. Well, comes to find out, it was a rare big window that had been there parked with a broken rear u joint since 1974!!!! And he was the original owner!!! I had to have it!! Although he was reluctant to sell, he realized he will never get around to restoring her and would like for another 56 enthusiast to get it back on the road and enjoy it...Fortunately, that enthusiast was me! Right time right place!!! Well, I bit off more then I could chew seeing I am in the middle of restoring a pro touring 56 Chevy 210 and am getting sick of pushing her in and out of the garage every weekend when I need to work on it. So with a heavy heart, I am selling Here are some details on her
They lost all their paperwork including pink slip but I ran the VIN through DMV and it does not even exist in the system. So its a clean and clear truck for re registration.
All original sheet metal in great condition(driver fender was dented and has some bondo but can easily be repaired) looks like an old 1960s repair. All original 272 V8 y Block motor with 3 speed Ford O Matic Trans and rear end.(motor is not running, told it did when he parked it but is been stripped of hoses and most fluids and has been sitting for almost 40 years). Both door glass pieces are missing but all regulators are there. back window and stainless trim in great shape. Front windshield is broken and has a hole in it. Bed wood is gone but all steel runners are there. Missing front seat, radio and heater. Has original steering column and wheel. has original visors and gauge cluster. Original radiator and shroud, original fuel tank and sending unit. The wheels and tires are not original. Have original hood hinges in the truck(they were seized up so I removed for rebuild) Original color of truck was baby blue.
There is a little cancer at cab corner on driver rear and passenger front. Not bad like a bunch of these other ones I've looked at in past. A little rust bubbling over drip rail but it will grind out and did not go all the way through( I can take pics of any rust concerns and email over if you need them the worst one is the one I posted). Roof is awesome, running boards are nice, bed panels have some stress cracks at corners but NO rust. Tailgate is nice. Only rust on fenders is the typical where running board meets the rear fender. No rust in the doors or hood, frame in excellent condition, all stock just dirty( Its a California truck and been here its whole life so in excellent condition). Any other rust areas seen in pics are surface and comes right off. The floors are in excellent condition and very solid. Im probably making it sound way worse than it is but I want whoever that buys it to be overly surprised in a good way when they get it, not the opposite. Ive been building classics for the last 20 years as a hobby and finding trucks like this one don't come around often, especially big windows. That's why I snatched it up. I am very picky about what I buy and build and I wont buy basket cases as im not into throwing away good money after bad.
This 56 is an excellent base for a build, street rod or original....Please feel free to call me or email and I can answer any questions or send pics of anything you need to see regarding body, motor etc. Im not into misleading people and want you to be as happy as I was when I found and purchased this!!! My name is Chad and you can call me at (949)910-3510. I can take a deposit through pay pal but prefer balance to be wired or cash upon pick up. Unless you want to pay the 3% fee on PayPal. Its totally up to you.
Thanks again for looking and good luck!!!!!

Production of Shelby GT350 is coming to an end
Fri, 26 Jul 2013One Autoblog staffer who drove the limited-edition Shelby GT350 wrote it probably was the best Mustang he'd driven, but, at some point, the fun had to come to an end: December 31 is the last day the GT350 will be available to order.
The GT350's option list has evolved much like it did for the original 1965-67 GT350. For 2011, the 45th Anniversary edition only came in coupe form and was painted white with blue stripes, just as with the 1965 car. The 2012 GT350 was offered as a coupe or convertible, and three colors were added to the option list, just like the 1966 model. For 2013, more colors and options were added in addition to equipment and styling updates, which resulted in Wilwood instead of Baer brakes. No major changes were made for the 2014 model. From the first car in 2011, customers have been able to choose between three different configurations for their 5.0-liter V8: naturally aspirated with 440 horsepower, supercharged with 525 hp (with warranty) or supercharged with 624 hp (without warranty).
"When we unveiled this latest version of the Shelby GT350, we promised it would be built for a limited time to preserve its collectability and value," states John Luft, president of Shelby American. He may have a point, because the original GT350, which also had a limited production run, is among the most valuable muscle cars in the world.
Ford blimp crashes inside Portland Trail Blazers arena
Fri, Dec 5 2014Portland basketball fans got a free, very safe recreation of the Hindenburg disaster when a Ford airship crashed into the stands during a game between the Trail Blazers and Indiana Pacers. Reportedly no one was hurt, but arena staff trying to push the inflatable vehicle through a hole it was too big for, made for some fantastic video and photos. This content is hosted by a third party.

The first gives an idea of just how hard it was to fit the blimp through the exit of the arena, and the second is a time-lapse look from someone right next to the action.
