1957 Ford F-100 2WD RWD Short Bed Straight Side base model truck. I bought this in El Paso Texas last year off of eBay for a project this year that never materialized. It was purchased for a total tear down and rebuild into a bagged street rod. Motor looks to be original, frame and body numbers match. Looks to be all original frame, suspension, drive train but that is my assumption. Did not matter since it was going to be stripped down. Just needed the title and decent sheetmetal. It starts and runs, but with much anger and resistance, lol. It blows blue smoke, runs rough/misses, but idles after started. Carb is leaking out the seals but has no problem responding to the pedal and getting the motor to move the truck around. Shifts, brakes, turns... just not a street worthy vehicle at all. Great foundation for a build. Not need to stress over modifying this the way you want it! Worst part is the hood front structural bracing is rusted away... but this hood was going to be deck, angled, and rebuilt anyways for a new latching system so enough steel for that. Also the core support is solid, no rust but the latch assembly area has been rewelded and strengthened in its lifetime... but again that area was going to be reworked for the new hood setup... again no biggie for me. The rust in the cab corners, footsteps, under footwell bracing, front of bed at cab... etc... all very typical of this year truck and replacment panels are cheap and readily available. Open Texas Title. NO SHIPPING!!!! NO INTERNATIONAL BUYERS!!! Buyer is responsible for vehicle pickup. SOLD AS IS NO WARRANTY NO RETURNS NO SCAMS!

**** V i d e o link of the engine running **** some people have asked about it. It starts, runs, idles... but would need a rebuild.

Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.

Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models

Thu, Mar 2 2017

The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
For more details about the study and the top companies, check out the press release posted below.
