FLATHEAD V8

For Sale is the BROOKS MOTOR COMPANY shop truck. We used this truck for parades and local car shows, or benefits. Its a great old truck, very original, and can be driven daily. It was restored approx 7 years ago. When we put it together, we wanted it to look as if in where still in the 50s. So its not show perfect paint or body lines as they where not during production. This truck is an excellent example of a 1953 F100. It captures the eyes of everyone where ever it is driven. The truck features Satin black paint, with distressed classic pinstripes dated 1962 EZ ED, and its running on Coker Classic White walls. The F100 is pretty original with the exception of a 4" front drop axle, and a leaf spring removed from the rear end. The electrical system has been changed over to 12 volt. The truck has original steering and brakes, so it does drive like a 1953 F100. the brakes are good, and the steering has normal play. If you like old trucks, your going to be happy to own this one.

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.
Want more? We'll let Bill Fay, Toyota's group vice president and general manager of sales lay the smack down:

Ford to rebrand SVT as 999?

Mon, 22 Sep 2014

Ford operates a number of performance divisions around the world. There's SVT in the US, Team RS in Europe and Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) in Australia. But the Blue Oval has been steadily integrating its performance operations into one unit, and here we might have our first indication of what it will be called.
A reader at Jalopnik sent in a survey in which respondents were asked to gauge the name for a new performance brand from a "major automotive manufacturer," and while the identity of that automaker was not disclosed, according to the survey, the automaker is considering the name 999 for its new go-fast unit.
As our compatriots point out, the 999 was Ford's first racecar, a rudimentary chassis with a 19-liter inline-four campaigned by Henry Ford around the turn of the 20th century. (Ford also used the number to designate a Fusion fuel-cell racer a few years back.) That could prove the tie-in Dearborn is looking for in rebranding its performance operations worldwide, replacing the letters SVT, RS and FPV globally under one name.
