 This is a very nice one of a kind car....if you are tired of Camaros and Mustangs at car shows then dare to be different ! This car has been restored cosmetically correct but has later model running gear and suspension to be safer.  It has a built 460 Ford with a loppy cam and high rise and a brand new Holley double pumper carb. New Griffin radiator with dual electic fans. High volume water pump,external fuel filter and oil filter coolers. Has a beefed up auto C6 trans with stall converter and a full spool poi trac rear end with 4.11 gears. ( Runs good down highway due to tall tires....65 mph all day long) Has full dual 3" exhaust with stock mufflers and manifolds ....its quiet going down the road. If you want it loud it has electric cut outs...flip a switch and you have the drag strip !! Also rebuilt the frontend and installed disc brakes and all new bearings and axles and converted to dual master cylinder for safety. Car was stripped inside and painted,undercoated the floorboard and then layed insulation all through out. All new CORRECT interior,trim and chrome. Radio works but no antennae installed on car. New heater core and rebuilt box. Car was painted Springtime Yellow and new door and trunk rubbers installed. New felts and roof rail rubbers and verticals. Channel rubber we got was wrong and never got around to it but everything else is new !! Fiberglass 406/427 style hood. Dash pieces and both bumpers were rechromed and are like new. All lights work as should...has aftermarket gauges,tach,and shifter. I have nearly all the pics from the build. Has new gas tank too this year. Clear Texas title and tagged and driven weekly. I built this car 3 years ago. It has been driven by a 70 year old man this 3 years.....not poked along but DRIVEN...sometimes WIDE open !!!lol. Car has been fun but bought a 64 Thunderbolt and dont need two. Car still looks good,drives even better (floats down the road at 100mph if want) Would need little to be a show car and does good at local shows. Paint is really nice..interior like new. The only bad would be the following....at the bottom edge of door and a small place by rear wheel well there are small rust bubbles starting ( a dime probely cover either one.) Trunk above gas tank has rust but cant really see it so didnt mess with it. Motor has some blowby when driven down highway but still runs good so never worried about it.Rear main seal leaks and need to keep cardboard or drip pan under car( kinda like a Model A) Car has been driven....not a garage queen so has small chips and pecks but believe me....its still very nice. I spent about $20,000 buying and building this car. I have had fun but time to pass it on. If someone makes a reasonable offer I will let it go . Car is "AS IS"....I bought on here that way and selling the same. Buyers with "0" buys or feed back will be cancelled. $500 deposit due when sale ends. Cash or wire transfer due within 3 days....you can pick up the car whenever after paid for and after payment is made it can stay as long as you need here. I can deliver in Texas or close by if paid for first. I also have shippers (if available). Call if any questions BEFORE you buy !!!! Thanks and good luck !!! 682-459-3078....car is 30 mile south of Fort Worth ,Texas off I-35W...

Ford set to target pre-school market with next F-150 variant

Tue, Jun 17 2014

How do you build a strong group of loyalists from the next generation of American drivers? You start em' young. Ford has taken that lesson to heart, as we can see in the first batch of images of the company's new entry to the pre-school market, the Power Wheels F-150. This particular example was caught returning from testing around Ford's base of operations in Dearborn, MI – covered in tiny little bits of camouflage, too. Now, this could very well end up being a collaboration between Power Wheels and Ford. Then again, it could just be some bored engineers that decided to troll the local congregation of spy photographers, who earlier today captured images of the next Focus RS and SVT Mustang. Whatever it is, it's pretty darn cool. Take a look up top for images of the new Power Wheels F-150.

Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.

Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy

Sun, 31 Aug 2014

Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).
