Up for auction is a awesome PROJECT... 1942 Ford 1/2 ton truck, and it was a former military truck.. a true WW2 vehicle. The truck has been chopped 3"inches, and channeled 3" inches. The truck was running and driving prior to me buying the truck, and it had a 351W and a C4 trans set up in the truck. The truck has air bags in the rear, and a Ford 9" rear end. The tank is a 65 Mustang tank, with a electric fuel pump. The truck has all the wiring in place, minus the heads lights. The wiring is all brand new, and it is wired up for 1950 Pontiac tail lights in the rear. The doors are suicide doors that have been shaved. The doors have the automatic lock poppers that are wired up and do work. Inside the cab she was set up for a set of 65-70 Mustang seats, and the heater is wired up and works. The wipers are installed and they do work. The gauges are all above the drivers side windshield, they all work and are new. I have a dash bezel with a working speedo for the dash. I also have the original glove box door for the truck also. I have a clear title in hand, and the truck will be sold to the HIGHEST bidder..... NO RESERVE!!!

Under the hood the truck has 1969 Ford Mustang front clip, with disc brakes. All new suspension up front, new bushings, new ball joints, new springs, new tie rods, and all new brake lines front to rear. The under the hood wiring is all new, and if you drop in a motor and trans your up and running with a turn key truck. Basically what you see is what you get with this truck, NO motor/ trans or seats are included. I have a few small parts that go with the truck, like window templates, turn signals bezels, windshield chrome that separate the windshield into 2 parts. The truck needs work to finish it... it has had a lot of work completed but, it's a PROJECT.. This is a VERY RARE truck.

The wheels and tires that are shown on the truck are not included in the sale. It will have a set of rollers on it when it is picked up.

2016 Ford Focus RS leaked ahead of official debut

Tue, Feb 3 2015

We won't officially see the new Ford Focus RS until the Blue Oval shows it to the world at an event on Tuesday, but here it is ahead of time, courtesy of the folks at Evo. As you can see, this is one hot little hatch, and if Evo's story is to be believed, those aggressive looks will be backed up with some pretty serious performance. Power is said to come from Ford's 2.3-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine, though the magazine's estimate of 250 horsepower seems awfully conservative to us (considering that's less than the current Focus ST). If earlier reports are to be believed, we think the RS will come packing more like 300 hp, if not more. For the first time, the Focus RS will use all-wheel drive with brake-operated torque-vectoring, and Evo says that up to 70 percent of the engine's power can be sent to the rear wheels. Hitting 60 miles per hour will reportedly take less than five seconds. Otherwise, it's business as usual, with a mean-looking exterior complete with the necessary aero bits (notice that wing!), and inside, we can see a beefy set of Recaro chairs. That's really all we know for now, but stay tuned for more when the Focus RS makes its official debut in the not-too-distant future. Related Video:

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.

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.
