1950 Ford F1 Kustom Traditional Hot Rod Rat Rod Half Ton Truck on 2040-cars
San Jose, California, United States
|
This is one phenomenal and one of a kind Kustom, built to be a show stopper, head turner and most importantly a reliable driver. The build began as a 1950 F1 Ford truck. The original chassis, body and rear end were used on this build but the rest is as we say at Vintage Gas Kustoms "Old Soul with a New Heart..." The truck has much going for it. The engine was rebuilt a little over a year ago along with the tranny and both have approx 7xxx miles on it. It has been driven from San Jose to Los Angeles, approx. 400 miles each way, about 4 times without a problem. Gets driven all over the place around locally and to Sacramento for shows and meets. This truck is so reliable it can be a daily driver if wanted. It has a powerful 302 V8 for power plant and 3.89 rear end with C4 tranny for its drive train. Has a little bit missing like bottom felts on the window and no wing window levers which can be obtained easily. Needs carpet and seat upholstery but the beautiful Mexican Blanket does a great job. Head liner and kick panels will also be needed but not necessary, if desired. These items too are easy to obtain for less than $200 for a kit. The body is a in great shape as is the paint but does have some little chips and small scratches here and there from driving, taking to shows and handling when needed to be moved from one area in the garage to another. Mechanically it is in EXCELLENT SHAPE and is reliable. There are approx 7xxx miles on build. The truck is definitely a one of a kind vehicle which demands attention and as mentioned before a reliable driver. This vehicle goes everywhere on its own and not on a trailer as most "nice looking" trucks or cars do... (not a trailer queen)... The build was done right. It has participated in many shows, drives and meets. I am not claiming its a show winner because it hasn't gotten entered to any competition shows just yet and its also got lots of character going for it. I'll provide a list of what the truck has and if I miss something I apologize, just ask any questions you might have about the truck as It is being sold as is and no returns or refunds after sale and there is too much to list about the truck itself.

Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013
Fri, 26 Jul 2013General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.
Shelby to auction 2012 GT350 No. 1 in Vegas
Thu, 19 Sep 2013With Shelby preparing to wind down production of its brutal GT350, a 624-horsepower Mustang that's meant to go up against the Roush Stage 3 in the world of tuned Ford ponycars, the Las Vegas-based tuner is looking to give back to one lucky customer. It'll auction off the very first GT350 ever produced, at the 2013 Barrett-Jackson auction in Las Vegas, a three-day event that runs from September 26 through September 28.
The GT350 is a monster, with a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8 that's been tuned well past 600 horsepower in a time when Ford's own Shelby-branded GT500 barely reached 550 horsepower. The GT350 is much louder than Ford's effort, too, both visually and audibly. The wide body look isn't what we'd call conventional, but on a car that sounds and goes like this, something extreme is needed. According to Shelby American's vice president of production, Gary Davis, "Carroll was very excited about the new wide body option, so that was included on this car. It's the first 2012 GT350 serial number from our anniversary year. It is a very special car." Wilwood brakes, a massaged suspension, and some very fat, sticky tires add to the Shelby experience.
This particular GT350 will be lot number 750, and will cross the Barrett-Jackson stage on Sunday, September 28.
