 THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN IN THE FAMILY FOR 16 PLUS YEARS. THIS WAS MY FATHER-N-LAWS TRUCK. SO, NOW SOME INFORMATION ON THE TRUCK. IT IS A 1952 MERCURY M1. THESE TRUCKS WERE BUILT IN CANADA. SOME HAVE MADE THERE WAY SOUTH. SO THEY ARE PRETTY RARE. WHEN MY FATHER-N-LAW PURCHASED THE TRUCK,  THE GENTLEMAN TOLD HIM THAT HE HAD DROVE IT DOWN FROM CANADA WITH THE STRAIGHT AXLE STILL UNDER THE FRONT.  THE TRUCK DROVE HORRIBLE, I DON'T KNOW HOW HE DID IT! SO NOW IT HAS BEEN CLIPPED WITH A 80'S MALIBU FRONT CLIP WITH DISC BRAKES. THIS WAS PROFESSIONALY DONE BY MIKE CHESSIER IN LAWRENCEVILLE, GA. STAINLESS BUMPERS FRONT AND REAR, NEW WIRING HARNESS ON  INSIDE, A NEW A\C SETUP WAS INSTALLED AND THE 10 BOLT REAR END WAS REBUILT WITH NEW BEARINGS, 3:55 GEARS AND AN EATON LIMITED SLIP UNIT. THE WOOD IN THE BED WAS REDONE AS WELL AS THE STAINLESS STRIPS. THE INTERIOR IS FROM A FORD RANGER. THE SEAT HAS HAD A CUSTOM FRAME TO MAKE IT FIT AND SECURE. THE MOTOR IS FROM A MARINE DEALER, IT WAS STILL IN THE CRATE WHEN HE GOT IT. SO IT IS A GM 454 (MERCRUISER) WITH FACTORY FUEL INJECTION. THE TRANSMISSION IS A TURBO 350. AS FAR AS THE PAINT GOES, YOU WILL SEE SOME BLIMISHES IN THE PICTURES I HAVE TAKEN.

THANKS AGAIN FOR LOOKING!

'Born of a Blue Sky' brings the Amelia Island Concours to you

Fri, 03 May 2013

The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance has more clout every year and is getting a reputation as Pebble Beach minus the madness. Held in March this year, it celebrated Ducati and the 50-year anniversaries of Lamborghini, the Corvette Sting Ray, Porsche 911 and the Ford GT40.
Justin Lapriore was there, and seemingly everywhere, getting footage of the various wares on display on the lawns and the sand and the runway. The resulting video, Born of a Blue Sky, is a 16-minute survey of some of the finer sights and plenty of engine sounds. Check it out below.

First retail 2015 Ford Mustang headed to Barrett-Jackson

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

Want to be the very first person to own a 2015 Ford Mustang GT? Here's what you'll need to do: be in Scottsdale, AZ on January 18 for the Barrett-Jackson auction and bring a very big checkbook. Having a passion for charity isn't a bad idea either.
Yes, the first 2015 Mustang to be sold to the public will be crossing the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, with proceeds from the auction going to JDRF, the charity formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
"Ford Mustangs have always been among the most popular collector cars at Barrett-Jackson Collector Car events," said the president of Barrett-Jackson, Steve Davis. "While every collector wishes they had snapped up the first Mustang sold in 1964, this is an opportunity to realize that dream in a different way."

How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.
