Just Toys Classic Cars is Extremely proud to present one of the coolest trucks that you are ever going to see in your lifetime.

Before you is a 1953 Ford F100 4 Door 4x4 Custom Truck. Now, we know what you are saying, Ford never made a 4 door truck in 1953. You would be correct in your statement. The owner that came up with this idea was struggling to come up with a way to keep his two door truck at the time that he had purchased from his little league baseball coach. He had fond memories of riding in the back of it to baseball practice when he was a kid. So when the opportunity came about, he purchased it from his old coach for $50. That's right folks $50.

Now that you have the back story, let's get into the details. This Blue Angle of a 1953 Ford F100 rides on a 1983 Ford F150 Big Block Chassis. This truck originally had a 400 in it, but later came the current mill under the hood. Now resides a 460 with Cobra Jet heads and 11:1 Compression. All of this is matted to a C6 transmission with a shift kit and a 2500 Stall Converter for good towing. The transfer case as well as the front and rear differential were left stock.

Speaking of stock, the owner wanted to keep as many things original as he could. He didn't want to make this a resto mod truck. He wanted to make it as if Ford built it, this is what they would do. The process took 3 cabs and 6 doors to make what you see here. The body and bed were widened to fit on the frame but the hood and the grill are still stock size. In order to start this truck you still turn the key and press the starter button and listen to that 460 come to life. If you need to pull the E-Brake you do it the old fashioned way by the original handle from 1953.

This truck has dual tanks with hidden openers and the tank switch is on the drivers side floor just like the original. A third brake light was installed for safety as well. The fenders were widened in order to fit the larger tires, but these are not cheap fiberglass fenders. Again, this truck was built as if Ford did it in 1953. The amount of man hours that went into this truck is immeasurable. The bed was made wider and a tailgate was made for this truck as well. As you will see in the pics there is a class three hitch so you can tow with this truck as well.

The seats are out of a 2003 F150, the moonroof is out of an 83 Eldorado, and there is just custom stuff everywhere. This truck speaks for itself. You just have to see it for yourself to believe it. We could go on and on with everything that is done to make this 1953 Ford F100 truck the coolest thing on the planet that you could drive anywhere you want any day of the week. Give us a call today and let's talk about you taking this truck home.

We have financing available for those that would like to take advantage of the option. We look forward to speaking with you soon and making you the newest member of the Just Toys Classic Cars Family.

Ford reports $3B profit in Q4, $6.9B for the year

Tue, 28 Jan 2014

Good news out of Dearborn today, as Ford announced $3 billion in profit for the last quarter of 2013, a 90-percent increase over the same period of 2012. Net income for all of last year, meanwhile, jumped to $7.2 billion from $5.7 billion in 2012, while pre-tax profits sat at a decade-topping $6.9 billion for all of 2013.
The results of the substantial profit increases are bigger profit-sharing checks for UAW employees. How big? A record $8,800 on average for 47,000 UAW workers, making 2013 the biggest year for profit sharing in Ford history. In total, $414 million will be paid as part of the profit-sharing scheme.
Now, it should be pointed out that a fair portion of Ford's Q4 profits were due to tax benefits, totaling $2.1 billion, according to Automotive News. Total profits would have also been higher, had there not been a significant recall on the Escape, as well as plant issues in South America.

Time to catch up with Jay Leno's Garage, including his Lamborghini Espada restoration

Tue, Dec 23 2014

If you're already jealous of the time, effort and money that Jay Leno can devote to his massive car collection, prepare to get a little greener with envy with this latest video from Jay Leno's Garage. Instead of the usual format of discussing a model for about ten minutes and then taking it out for a test drive, this week Leno gives viewers on a tour of over a dozen projects concurrently happening in his stable. The breadth of the vehicles shown and the things being done to them run the entire span of the automotive hobby. At the same time, Jay's shop is working on just a simple restoration of his 1969 Lamborghini Espada (pictured), and at the other side of the building, the team is rebuilding a wood-bodied 1914 Detroit Electric from scratch. He eventually plans to slot a more modern electric drivetrain into it. If bikes are more your interest, there's a freshly completed Brough Superior just waiting for a ride, and if American models are your thing, a Ford Bronco is getting a Coyote V8 installed into it. You have some very specific tastes if you can't watch this clip and start wishing at least one of these vehicles could be in your own garage. Other than the personal projects his mechanics are working on in the shop, Jay gets to have them all, plus plenty more.

2015 Ford Focus Electric hides in plain sight

Wed, 16 Apr 2014

The styling changes to the 2015 Ford Focus were shown off at the recent Geneva Motor Show, so what the EV version looks like is not that much of a surprise. Still, the 2015 Focus Electric is making its world debut here at the New York Auto Show, so we wanted to know what changes we are looking at compared to both the internal combustion engine version and the earlier EV models.
The exterior visual distinctions between the ICE and EV are minimal, and basically nonexistent from the A-pillar to the rear. Up front, you can see the charge port, of course, but the front fascia has also undergone a bit of an adjustment. The front doesn't have the ICE version's flattened grille and the EV's Ford logo creates a bump in the hood line where none exists on the ICE. The 2015's grille is also different than the one on the 2014 Focus Electric, being slightly smaller (you can see this better if you compare pictures in our new gallery above to these of the 2011 Focus Electric and these of the gas-powered 2015 Focus).
The updated 2015 interior - which we couldn't access ourselves - has things like a new center stack, improved cupholders and is basically identical between the gas and electric models. With the car off, you can't even tell if you're in an EV or ICE, Seema Bardwaj, the US brand manager for the Focus, told AutoblogGreen. The only things that are different, she said, are extra menu screens to show EV powertrain information to the driver.
