Up for bid is a fully restored 1956 F-100. My intention was to build a stock appearing 1956 F100. There are some things that I did update such as the steering wheel, headliner, seatbelts, firewall cover and some misc clamps/hardware. Although it is a factory equipped V8/automatic/big window, it now has a later model 292 y-block and an FMX transmission. Every nut, bolt, bearing,seal, etc. on the truck is either replaced or rebuilt. All glass and weatherstripping is new except for the rear glass (which is good). It has less than 30 miles since restoration. All suspension/steering components are new or rebuilt(including kingpins). Engine and transmission overhauled. New radiator, heater core, and blower motor. All wiring, lights, switches, relays are new.Starter and generator rebuilt. The bed and all its components are new except for the fenders. The body is all steel. The lower door panels,r/h cowl,fenders and r/h cab corner was with new panels from LMC. All fuel and brake lines are new, as well as the master cylinder. Carb(Motorcraft) was sent out and rebuilt. All bumpers, emblems, chrome and stainless are new except for the front/back window trim and drivers mirror. New tires, hub caps, and beauty rings (except the spare).Completely new exhaust system. The truck starts right up and runs incredible, however it drives like a truck that was made in 1956. Manual steering and drum brakes on a leaf spring suspension is just what you would expect. You are also pushing the limit at 75 mph. It has typical rattles and road noise because it was restored back to stock and that's the way they were. There are some very minor paint flaws as pictured. One is on the forward side of the driver's door and the other is visible when you open the tailgate. I will include the paint/clear to touch up. On the interior, there is a small tear in the (new) floor mat and about a 1/4" in the (new) seat cover. The paint/clear is outstanding but some parts like the inner fenders could use cut/buff if new owner wanted. Keep in mind this isn't a $30k paint job though. I have all receipts and a fully documented library of photos of the restoration. I have the clear title in hand, and in my name. Thanks for looking and please feel free to ask any questions.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]
Sun, 20 Jan 2013Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
Ford books $2.6B pretax quarterly profit
Thu, 24 Jul 2014While its crosstown competitors at General Motors are smarting over a drastic drop in net income to $200 million in the second quarter, Ford has reason to celebrate. The Blue Oval has announced its own Q2 financial results, including a growing net income of $1.3 billion, a $78 million increase over last year. Pretax profits for the company reached $2.6 billion, up $44 million from 2013, but total revenue dropped slightly to $37.4 billion, down from $37.9 billion. Profits per share before one-time charges totaled 40 cents per share, beating Wall Street analysts' expectations of 36 cents a share.
Regionally, the Blue Oval performed strongly, as well. North America posted a record quarterly pre-tax profit of $2.4 billion, a $119 million increase. Europe also showed signs of turn around with its first profit in three years of $14 million after a loss of $306 million in Q2 2013. Ford is actually predicting profitability in the troubled region in 2015. Asia Pacific operations also performed well with $159 million in profits, up $29 million from last year. The only region where the business posted a loss was South America.
According to Automotive News, Ford also announced more precise plans about the changeover to build the aluminum-intensive 2015 F-150. In August, the Dearborn plant will shutdown for eight weeks to retool and its Kansas City plant will do the same next year.
Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013
Fri, 26 Jul 2013General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.
