1965 Ford F-250 on 2040-cars
Chicago, Illinois, United States
This truck has a good running 352 FE Big Block in it from the factory. Looks as though someone decided to add a cast iron 1968 4v intake manifold and 4v Holley carburetor at some point, along with a set of Hooker headers. It fires right up every time. Behind the big FE motor is a factory original NP (New Process) 4spd manual transmission and a big 9' rear end with 4.10 gears. As for original mileage, I don't know. Judging on looks alone, I would guess the heads were rebuilt at some time in the past, probably to add hardened valve seats, but that's just my guess. I believe the distributor was also replaced.
Good Clutch, Manual Brakes, Manual Steering... as all F-250's were. A nice Stereo/ CD player was added and mounted overhead in the truck. Door speakers were professionally installed, as was the amp and sub behind the seat. The stereo system rocks.
The interior was professionally painted to match the exterior of the truck. I think it looks good. It's sparse, but that's how these trucks were. All the gauges work as does the back light so you can see the gauges at night.
All exterior lights work including the turn signals. Wipers work as well. It's a good old truck and the fact that it was a Special Ordered Truck, specified by the door data tag, is pretty neat. I took a photo of the door tag and decoded it for potential buyers. The truck also has newer 16" wheels with like new BF Goodrich All Terrain T/A Tires.

Ford brings FPV Falcon production in house [w/video]
Thu, 21 Feb 2013For the first time since 1976, Ford of Australia is bringing the assembly of its stonking Ford Performance Vehicle line back in-house to the company's Broadmeadows and Geelong facilities. That's a point of pride for FPV, which builds high-performance versions of the Australian Falcon model like the F6, GS and the heroic GT seen here.
In the video below, we hear FPV employees talking in hushed tones about the important legacy that cars like the GT have for Australian gearheads of all stripes, and how proud they are to say that hand-built machines like this GT R-Spec with its Boss 355 engine are now rolling out of their home base. For our part, we're just dying to drive this version of the Coyote V8; the engine is rocking a "Miami" supercharger from Harrop and makes some 450 horsepower.
Continue on below for the video, or you can check out some images of the new FPV at the facility, as well as a gallery of the GT R-Spec car.
Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp
Mon, 17 Nov 2014
Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.
Ram and Alfa Romeo top J.D. Power study of best automaker websites
Fri, Jul 21 2023Imagining a new car can be terrific fun, especially if the new car is an Alfa Romeo. So say the fantasy engineers at the J.D. Power agency, who’ve found that Alfa and Ram, sister brands under the Stellantis umbrella, offer potential buyers the most attractive consumer websites, which are often their first viable encounter with those vehicles. Power found that those marques lead the mass market and premium categories in its twice annual Manufacturer Website Evaluation Study. In the premium segment, Alfa Romeo led with 755 points, up six points over BMW, 10 points ahead of Infiniti, 14 points past of Jaguar, and 18 points up on Porsche. By contrast, Volvo and Audi trail the pack with 689 points, and are behind Genesis (699 points), Tesla (720), and Cadillac (721), all of which perform worse than the premium segment average of 724 points. The summerÂ’s study showed that in the mass market segment, Ram leads with an impressive 735 points, which puts it six points ahead of GMC, seven points atop its stablemate Jeep, eight points beyond Subaru, and 22 points ahead of the industry average. Volkswagen finished dead last among mass market names, but only one point behind Ford, 684 to 683 out of a possible 1,000. Segment average, as noted, was 713 points. “Website satisfaction can be volatile, and automotive websites are not immune to changing preferences,” said Jon Sundberg, director of digital solutions at J.D. Power. “However, manufacturers have shown to be very agile when it comes to website design and ensuring their sites meet modern standards, more so than many other industries, as exemplified through the study data.” Marketing/Advertising Alfa Romeo Audi BMW Ford Volkswagen
