For Sale is a beautifully crafted 1965 Ford F100 Styleside Pickup.

The body is very straight and clean of rust. The engine is one of a kind - A professionally built FE 428 Cobra Jet engine with less than 100mi since construction using a " New " old stock engine block. Forged internal components and precise California engine building produce 550+ horsepower and 600ft lbs of torque. Gear shifting is accomplished thru a TCI C-6 automatic transmission with a cobra jet servo, standard valve body and 2000 rpm TCI stall converter. All this power is handled thru a newly built 9" rear-end with 3.89 Richmond gears, Auburn pro series limited slip posi, Moser forged steel custom axles with Torrington bearings & steel retainer plates.

This truck is a no expense spared show/race truck. It has all new mechanical and a completely new electrical system professionally installed by the best of California. It runs and drives excellently and has done the quarter mile in mid 11 second runs. We have not pushed it past that point, as the engine is still being broken in. The body is smooth/clean and could be show room painted within a few days. The interior is setup with a single racing seat and 5 point harness. This makes the Truck an amazingly easy street rod show truck project by simply adding the turn signals and brake lights, then finishing the interior and exterior to your desires. Alternatively, this truck is ready to be an awesome drag vehicle. Just fill the tank and go and don't even worry about the show room paint job!

The truck has spent its entire life in the California desert were it was dry and preserved. I purchased it about 4 years ago and never got around to finishing it to the way I wanted. It's being kept inside my facility in West Palm Beach, Florida. Please email me to schedule an appointment to see and hear the truck.

Bellow is a complete list of the specifications. The truck has a large amount of documentation and spare parts included with the sale. Please - only serious buyers.

Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.

Ford Recalls '13 Escape For 11th Time

Fri, Aug 15 2014

Only in dealer showrooms for two years now, the 2013 Ford Escape has already been recalled for safety hazards 11 times. The most recent recall for the beleaguered vehicle came Friday, when the company announced it was recalling almost 160,000 Escapes and Focus ST hatchbacks from the '13 and '14 model years because of a wiring problem that could cause the engine to stall. Caused by a faulty wiring harness, Ford said the defect could result in reduced power, hesitation or outright stalling. The company said it knew of no crashes or injuries caused by the flaw. Customers affected will be notified by mail. It was the latest problem for a vehicle beset by recalls from the moment it started rolling off the assembly lines. Starting on July 6, 2012, the '13 Escapes have been recalled for an assortment of problems, including multiple hazards with fuel lines that could result in engine fires, fluid leaks in the engine that could also result in fires, problems with engines overheating, delays in airbags deploying and more.

Next SVT Mustang may axe Shelby name, go naturally aspirated

Mon, 10 Jun 2013

Following our first glimpse at the 2015 Ford Mustang out on the road, the fine folks at Road and Track have divulged some details on what the Blue Oval's next pony might have in store. We've already seen that the car will get some very sleek, Evos-inspired design cues, and an independent rear suspension is indeed in store. These new details, however, concern the muscle car's beating heart.
For starters, the base Ford coupe is expected to carry on with V6 power, likely from the same 3.7-liter unit found in today's car. From there, R&T says the next step up will be a four-cylinder EcoBoost engine, likely displacing 2.3 liters, putting out as much as 350 horsepower. Of course, a Mustang wouldn't be a Mustang without V8 thrust, and R&T states that the 5.0-liter Coyote V8 will continue on into the 2015 car, making something like 450 horsepower.
But it's at the high end of the Mustang range where things will, reportedly, get very, very interesting. Road & Track claims that the top-shelf 'Stang will likely lose the supercharger from its engine, producing a metric crap-ton of naturally aspirated grunt instead. Additionally, the SVT-fettled Mustang will likely be dropping its Shelby moniker, in favor of "a name you're familiar with," according to the magazine (you know, like, Cobra).
