1952 Ford F-100 (f-1) Street Rod Pickup-custom-great Looks & Ride-awesome Truck on 2040-cars
El Paso, Texas, United States
My 1952 Ford Pickup Street Rod is an awesome combination of Retro Looks match with Today's Performance Standards. It's Amazing. Ok, let's get into some specifics. The truck is "motorvated" ...moved by a Mr. Goodwrench Crate 350 (5.7) V8 along with a new GM 350 Automatic Transmission. Of course the engine and transmission have been "beefed" up to provide this gorgeous truck with a little more performance than what a stock 350 setup provides. It looks great, sounds great, and performs great as well. There's about 5000 miles on the truck since completion. And the radiator is a high performance unit to accommodate the V8 and great Vintage Air Conditioning in the truck. A lot of innovation went into the building of this fabulous 1952 Ford Pickup Street Rod. Did you notice the grille? Look directly below and see if you can figure out what's different about it. Most people can't. Of course, the chrome speaks for itself. Most stock 1952 Ford Pickups had the grilles painted white or gray. But look a little harder. Notice anything? The stock 1952 Ford pickup had 3 vertical "teeth" in the grile. THIS ONE HAS 5. Isn't that cool? This was an expensive modification to complete but this beautiful truck deserves the love and attention it got. Now here's another fun and totally cool thing to consider. Look at the cab from the side. Notice anything? You probably don't but the cab was "chopped" 2" , meaning that this cab is 2" shorter than a stock cab. This doesn't effect your comfort at all as there is plenty of headroom. But it looks soooooooooo good....don't ya think? The pictures were taking on my cellphone and don't do this amazing truck justice. The paint is actually quite metallic and it literally grabs your eyes when the sun is shining. Looks great. The interior is exceptionally nice and like I mentioned, it has a great Vintage Air Conditioner/Heat Unit that keeps the cab comfortable during all times of the year. And check out that awesome chrome tilt steering column......NICE. It has the original gauges to retain the nostalgic look but also has a nice set of modern gauges directly to the right. Looks totally cool. Oh, did I mention it has electric windows and a great stereo? Well, it does. Oh, let me also mention that in the past this truck was used for advertising State Farm Insurance Companies. Check out the license plate on the truck. If you sound it out, it says 1 GOOD NEIGHBOR. Speaks for itself. The only reason I am selling my beautiful truck is I have the "itch" for a really nice trike such as a Boss Hoss Trike, or a Victory Vision Trike, or a Harley Ultra Trike or some similar really nice trike. Other than this "itch" of mine, I would not be selling my truck. Ok, some details about the auction. I will not sell to foreign buyers but I will work with buyers from Canada and Mexico. I will not ship but will cooperate with the shipper of your choice or you can fly into the El Paso, TX International airport where I will pick you up and you can drive it home. And it will be a great ride. Bidders with a 5 or less feedback rating need to call me first at 915-276-1505 to discuss how you would pay, etc or your bid(s) can and probably will be removed without notice. I reserve the right to remove the auction at anytime as the truck is advertised elsewhere as well. However, if the auction meets the reserve, I will complete the sale on eBay regardless of any other outside offers I may get. If payment is made with any kind of check, the truck and title will not be released until the check has had sufficient time to clear my bank. Or you can deposit the money directly into my Wells Fargo account. Thanks for looking at my truck On Oct-31-13 at 20:08:28 PDT, seller added the following information: I have been asked what type of front end the truck has and I apologize for the oversight. It has a Mustang II front end with power disc brakes. Handles and stops real nice |

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs
Wed, Nov 29 2017BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining
Focus RS shreds in prep for Goodwood hillclimb
Tue, Jun 23 2015The Goodwood Festival of Speed is rapidly becoming a second home for Ford's hottest versions of the Focus. Last year, the updated Focus ST and high-performance diesel debuted there, and this year the motoring event has been selected to show off the new 2016 Focus RS. To get a little exercise before speeding up the hill climb, the Blue Oval unleashed its upcoming hyper hatch on a Belgian test track. Based on this clip, Ford's test driver has absolutely no problem whatsoever in making the Focus RS slide, at least with the stability and traction control off. Interestingly, while the RS shares its 2.3-liter EcoBoost with the latest Mustang, the Blue Oval's engineers give it a much different exhaust note here. Rather than a growling muscle car, this example has much more of the staccato bark of a rally-bred machine, which is a great fit. The all-wheel drive, 315-horsepower Focus RS should be arriving at dealers soon, and we're definitely looking forward to seeing and hearing it take on the Goodwood hill during the upcoming event.
