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 |

European jury picks finalists for 2015 Car of the Year
Tue, Dec 16 2014There are countless Car of the Year awards handed out each year, and naturally, Europe has its own way of doing things. Every year, a panel of jurists representing seven publications in seven different languages and seven different countries get together to name their joint Car of the Year. The panel released a list of 32 candidates back in July, and it has now whittled that list down to seven nominees. The list consists of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, the Citroen C4 Cactus (shown), the Ford Mondeo, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Nissan Qashqai, the Renault Twingo and the Volkswagen Passat. Of those seven, only two are available in the US – those being the Mondeo (sold Stateside as the Fusion) and the C-Class. The Passat is an entirely different model in North America, the Qashqai isn't offered here, Citroen and Renault don't even participate in our market and the BMW 2 Series is represented here only by the completely different coupe and convertible. Expect the one and only recipient of the 2015 Car of the Year award to be announced at the Geneva Motor Show this coming March, and while you're waiting, you can place your guesses for the eventual winner in Comments.

Ford hit by lawsuit over hybrid technology from, surprise, Paice
Fri, Feb 28 2014The name Paice will be familiar to anyone who's been deep in the weeds of hybrid history, but it will probably be new to anyone who simply drives one. The key part of the story is something called "HyperDrive," which is the name given to a gas-electric powertrain technology developed by Alex Severinsky and patented in 1994. HyperDrive is a way to get the energy from both the electric battery and the engine into the wheels, seamlessly. The patents are held by Paice, which is an unusual company (its HQ is a house in a retirement community, right by a golf course) that does nothing but litigate. You can read more on Paice here. The latest case targets Ford and the hybrid and plug-in versions of the C-Max and Fusion models as well as the Lincoln MKZ. Paice claims that it held "over 100 meetings and interactions with Ford" between 1999 and 2004, and gave the automaker, "detailed information about the hybrid technology that Paice had developed." The suit also alleges that: For more than five years, Paice answered inquiries from multiple departments within Ford, believing in good faith that a business relationship between Paice and Ford would be mutually beneficial and advance the acceptance of Paice's technology. ... After years of Ford learning the details of Paice's hybrid drivetrain technology, Ford elected not to enter into a business relationship with Paice. The suit is officially known as, "Paice LLC v. The Ford Motor Co., 14-492, U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland (Baltimore)" and you can read the PDF here. Ford told AutoblogGreen, "we do not comment on pending litigation." Toyota settled a similar patent-infringement case in 2010 and now pays Paice almost $100 for every hybrid it sells. Paice is still in court against Hyundai and Kia. In 2010, Ford also settled with Paice but they agreed to keep negotiating on other issues until at least January 1, 2014. With that date now in the past, it didn't take long for Paice to file papers to get the two sides back before a judge. That's where it appears to be most comfortable.
