This is an extremely clean 1954 Ford F100 1/2 ton short bed. It has under 29,000 since the complete re-build. Everything on this truck works. It is a nice reliable daily driver or show truck. The truck was a high quality build and is still able to win awards at local shows. The truck cruises down the highway at 70 mph at 2300 rpm thanks to the overdrive transmission and 3:25 gears. This has always been a California truck and rarely sees rain.
The Chevrolet 327 V8 was completely rebuilt with a mild cam ( 268 D, 450 L) and 10 to 1 compression. It has a Holley aluminum intake with Edelbrock 4 barrel carb., air cleaner and high volume fuel pump, Aluminum valve covers, HEI ignition with MSD 8mm wires, shorty headers with Flowmaster exhaust system and a new aluminum radiator. The transmission is a rebuilt S&W Performance 700R4, 4 speed automatic overdrive with Lokar fill tube. The rear end is a Currie built Ford 9” peg leg with 3.25 gears and drum brakes hung on mono leaf springs. The rear suspension also has an air bag system with on board compressor, interior controls and gauge. The front suspension is a completely rebuilt Volare independent with power steering and power disc brakes. Wheels are 18” Boze. Fronts are 18x8 with 245/45/18 Falken tires and the rears are 18x9 with 275/40/18 Falken tires. There is a new aluminum 19 gal. fuel tank under the driver side of the cab.
The body is very straight and rust free with a high quality pearl yellow paint job. There have been a few touch ups and a couple minor chips from use. The front bumper has been removed and a roll pan added. The rear bumper has been raised and the mounting brackets shortened. It also has a hidden receiver trailer hitch behind the hinged license plate. The body seams have been smoothed and the emblems removed. The door handles have been shaved and the driver door is on a popper. The windows have been converted to one piece power with tinted glass. The gas filler has been placed behind a door, the hood is reverse tilt and the tailgate has a Sir Michaels smooth skin with hidden latches. The bed floor is steel and the bed, running boards, interior floor and rear cab have been coated with Tuff Skin spray one material. The complete interior was redone including billet gauge face with 5 Classic Instruments gauges, a tach beneath the dash, billet headlight and wiper knobs, billet pop out cup holders, billet Lokar gas pedal/ linkage and brake pad, an am/fm/cd player in the glove box, tweed headliner, visors and door panels, tilt steering column with billet banjo wheel and controls, leather 60/40 seat with storage underneath, billet third brake light and 2 speed electric wipers.The truck is currently licensed and insured in my name.

Everything new at the 2019 New York International Auto Show
Wed, Apr 24 2019Transcript: Welcome to the 2019 New York Auto Show. It's the last auto show, and so far it's my favorite of the year. We have a new buggy, compact pickup and trail ready SUV from Volkswagen. Ford brought the new Escape and a new Mustang performance variant, and we have a brand new Toyota Highlander and Subaru Outback. Let's go take a look around. We're here at the New York Auto Show with the Subaru stand. Normally the Subaru stand is just some white carpet and some show lighting. This year it's like we're in a national park. It's ... Frankly, I'm from Oregon. You're from Colorado. Yeah. It's making us feel at home. And in that way what better place and what better people to introduce this Subaru Outback which is pretty much the official car of Colorado and Oregon. Yeah. You actually have to buy a Subaru before they let you move to Colorado. Now instead of climbing up there and taking a look because we've been told we can't do that we're gonna go over there and check out another one. So the exterior, not that different. No. Looks exactly like an Outback. There's actually oddly a little more black plastic trim on the outside. A little too much for me. Right. It's interesting because it kind of slowly went away from that from the beginning because in the beginning the black plastic trim kind of made it an Outback, and now they're kind of bringing it back. I guess they needed to make it more macho. Right. Right. Now we're inside. Inside it looks pretty different. Swank. It's kind of swank for an Outback which has been pretty plain. Now this is the newly available vertically gigantic touch screen here. 11.6 inches. That is massive. This is how big it is when it's turned on ... just for the viewers. Now this is the onyx trim. So with that you get the black mirrors, the black wheels. This upholstery is special to the onyx, so it's gray and black and you also have this green stitching. Yeah, I like this accent stitching. It's kind of neat. Oh there's also a little tray there. Well this is a deep bin here. You can probably fit a phone. There we go. Almost. Yeah there are two USB ports. There's an additional two in the backseat. So this thing here you pop in the cup holder and it gives you a little more space or less space. These are really big, so if you have one of those Nalgene bottles I'm guessing it's going to fit in there. One of my complaints about my Subaru that I own now which is a naturally aspirated Crosstrek is that up in the mountains. It's slow?
Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads
Thu, 11 Jul 2013Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.
Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide
Wed, 10 Apr 2013Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.
