Irvine, California, United States

This vehicle is sold as-is and there is absolutely no warranty expressed or implied.

I am offering my 1953 Ford F100 Rat Rod. This vehicle is custom from the ground up but is by no means a "show truck".

Frame: 1990 Chevy S-10
Cab: 1953 Ford F100
Bed: 1955 Chevrolet
Interior: Custom
Motor: 4.6L Chevrolet
Transmission: 3 Speed Auto

You may have seen this vehicle on eBay before as I purchased it about three months ago from another seller. 

Since then I have lightly overhauled the vehicle. 

New Windshield
New Exterior Weather stripping
New Spark plugs
New Oil & Filter
New Seat Belts
Rebuilt and balanced driveshaft from Drivelines, Inc.
Re-alligned doors/striker plates
Rebuilt carburetor
Modified seat (I am 6'5" and fit comfortably)
Modified pedals
Stripped all exterior wood, sanded, cleared, reinstalled.
New Spray in bed liner
Re-worked all gauges to have them working properly.

I thought I was going to keep this thing forever but things change and it's time to let her go to a new home. Please note, if you want something with a perfect body that can be painted, this is not the one. This truck is the way it is and it would cost $30,000 in body work to be able to lay a nice paint job on this. If you don't like patina this truck isn't for you. The truck looks as old as it is but drives like a newer car. It does have power steering. 

Serious inquiries only! No tire kickers and no test drives without cash in hand.

Leno recalls '90s showdown with Tim Allen and his mullet

Wed, Oct 7 2015

Not many of us have buddies with garages full of classic cars, but that isn't the case for Jay Leno and Tim Allen. Of course, one of the advantages for two guys with such vast collections is occasionally getting to pit their cars against each other. The two comedians did just that in the mid-'90s with a burnout battle on The Tonight Show between Allen in a race-prepped Mustang and Leno in a drag racer. After some time away from regular television, Leno is returning to the airwaves with a Jay Leno's Garage series premiering on Oct. 7 (tonight) at 10:00 p.m. ET on CNBC. Let this clip serve as another taste of what to expect for the new TV show's mix of comedy and cars. After reminiscing about the old days in a gorgeous garage, the comedians get into two modern machines to reprise the classic challenge – after a little trash talk anyway. Don't worry because the YouTube series isn't going anywhere, though.

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.

Hear the 2015 Mustang GT V8 roar for the first time

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

Our combined knowledge of the 2015 Ford Mustang continues to deepen, as spy shooters have begun to compile video and audio of the upcoming sixth-generation car.
Case in point is this latest series of video clips, which not only gives us a great vantage point of the Mustang in motion, but also allows us to hear the Ford V8 engine and exhaust. After perusing the aural delights of this short video, which, admittedly, doesn't catch the Mustang GT at full song, we can at least say that the throaty exhaust isn't disappointing.
Chances are good that the 2015 Mustang GT will debut with some version of the current (and excellent) Coyote 5.0-liter V8 engine, though we're unclear as to whether or not the motor has been massaged for its next-gen debut, or what may have been done to exhaust plumbing. At this point, we're just happy to hear the pony run. Scroll below to hear for yourself.
