Hi, your looking at a nice 1956 f100 Big window project that was started from the frame up, This isn't a show truck and my intention was to built a very nice hot rod truck and drive it.Unfortunaly, couldnt finish it due to no time . I'll try to best describe it since a lot has been done to it.
Frame: Boxed from radiator crossmember to rear shock crossmember using 3/16 metal. C-notched the rear with tube bars across for better support. Mustang 2 front end with new heavy duty motor mounts with polyurethane inserts, welded and smoothed. New: upper and lower tubular a arms, power rack and pinion, drilled n slotted rotors, 2" dropped spindles, calipers with brake hoses. 8.8 Ford Explorer rearend with 3.73 posi and new rotors. New 69-70 mustang gas tank in bed. Has 2' lowering blocks with new u bolts.Custm made tranny mount from 32' roaster. The front has no coilover or airbag setup since I haven't decided which I wanted but it's holded up using a round tube pipe, easy to remove once jacked up.
Motor: 396 bored .040 over with forged crankshaft, new pistons, harmonic balancer, water pump, roller rockers, 049 heads, isky camshaft, etc..This motor came out of a 69 camaro and its freshly rebuilt with no miles. Th400 tranny with about 5k on rebuilt. New Griffen aluminum radiator,
The body is really in nice shape. I got the cab from somebody that already had started on it and i never did anything to it. All 4 cab corners are solid and nice except for the rear passenger side which has few small dents..easy fix. None of them has been replaced, no rust. Floors are solid, rain gutters and top of cab is awesome. Someone had welded the cowl vent shut but not complete and mirrors door holes smoothed. Inner fender brackets is bend due to someone wanted a full tilt frontend but i have new ones to go with it. Has front and rear glass with stainless trim(all there with clips), needs polishing. Front fenders and rear fenders has been media blasted, front fenders almost done but rear fenders need some work but in nice shape. Has new Dan Carpenter bed with ends filled up n stake pockets filled for a nice clean look. Got a nice tailgate with little work to be done. New Dan Carpenter running boards. Hood is in very good shape. I have the metal crossbars for the bed.
New: front and rear bumper, grille with stainless turn signal housing, rear stainless brake lights, stainless tailgate hinges, have stainless latches but not on, front and rear windshield weatherstripping, door weatherstripping. The wheels are new wheel vintiques with black powdercoated. New Coker whitewalls radial tires..
I'm sure im forgetting something since there's lots of new stuff on this truck. What you see in the pics is what you get. I have a bill of sale with it and the vin tag is on the door. I'm not responsible for this truck once it leaves my property. It is sold as it, where is with no written imperfections. You can come and see this truck in person if you like. Im not afraid to show it. Im a pretty picky person and want only the best for it but just not into show truck or cars. My plan was to paint it black or silver with red interior and drive it for fun.$500.00 deposit due at end of auction and paid in full in 7 days. Cashiers check or cash in person preferred. Once I get money in bank, truck is yours. Please email me with any questions. Good luck bidding..

I took some pics with some parts that goes with it such as dash cluster, ash tray, both rear and front glass with stainless trim still on rubber on glass, dash defroster, etc...I tried to add pics of it but couldnt since ii could only do 24 pics. If you want them, send me your email and i'll send them to you. Thanks again.

I forgot I had a heavy duty rear 4 link coilover set up. Its very very similar to the no limit set up. So, it goes with the truck. I have pic of it if u need it.

Ford going bonkers at SEMA with 57 showcars
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Ford always shows up in force at the SEMA Show, but this year's tally of 57 custom-tuned cars, trucks and vans is more than we can ever recall the Blue Oval bringing. Ford will introduce 28 of its project vehicles in its "Dreamcase" ahead of next month's show. The first batch of eight you'll find here with the remaining vehicles trickling into public view over the next couple of weeks.
This first group of cars includes a Fiesta, four Fiesta ST hatchbacks and a trio of Mustang show cars styled and tuned to varying degrees all by different aftermarket companies. Tanner Foust, Nitto Tire, 3dCarbon and Ice Nine Group are some of the more familiar names affixed to these cars. Our favorite so far is the Hollywood Hot Rods Mustang convertible (shown above) with its removable aluminum top and methanol-injected, 750-horsepower 5.0-liter V8.
Scroll down for all the details on these Fiestas and Mustangs, and stay tuned for more info on Ford's SEMA line, which will include custom versions of the Focus ST, Fusion, Transit Connect, F-150 and Super Duty.
Ford GT, Buick Avenir and Audi Q7 take 2015 EyesOn Design awards
Thu, Jan 15 2015The annual EyesOn Design Awards at the Detroit Auto Show allows some of the greatest designers in the world to weigh in on the best production and concept debuts at the big event each year. For 2015, the large panel of judges included luminaries like Frank Stephenson of McLaren, Ralph Gilles from FCA and Moray Callum of Ford. Apparently the editors at Autoblog had a good eye because the winner of 2015's Best Designed Production Vehicle award went to the Ford GT, which was also our favorite debut from the show. The new supercar beat the Acura NSX and Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Coupe for the honor. The judges described the Blue Oval's shape as "capturing the original GT40 in a modern interpretation," according to EyesOn Design. The Buick Avenir was also a big winner in the awards this year and received the nods for both Best Designed Concept Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials. In the concept category, it beat out the Chevrolet Bolt and Mercedes-Benz F 015, and in the latter group, the sedan triumphed over Audi Q7, Mercedes F 015 and Volkswagen Cross Coupe GTE. The Q7 received its own accolade for Best Designed Interior, and it beat the Avenir and Infiniti Q60 for the honor. This year's Lifetime Design Achievement Award went to former Renault designer Patrick le Quement, and Bob Lutz received the EyesOn Design Catalyst Award for the second time. The honor is for an executive "who has empowered great design," according to the organization, which describes Lutz perfectly. Scroll down to read the announcement with more comments about the winners.

3dCarbon now offering body kit for Ford Fusion
Tue, 01 Oct 2013A factory-backed body kit by 3dCarbon is now available to Ford Fusion owners who want their car to stand out from the crowd while not being too flashy. The body kit adds a more aggressive front spoiler, side skirts, rear body trim and spoiler that are, in fact, integrated quite nicely into the Fusion's already-comely styling, just as 3dCarbon claims. All Fusions with the kit also receive dual exhaust ports with the stainless-steel exhaust surrounds usually reserved for the Titanium package Fusion EcoBoost models.
A nice detail of 3dCarbon's injection-molded urethane body kit is that it has undergone crash testing to certify that it can withstand crashes up to five miles per hour. Because of this, the kit is warrantied by 3dCarbon for five years or 50,000 miles, much like Ford's warranty on its own parts. In fact, the kit is available through participating Ford dealers and can be financed through Ford Motor Credit. Buyers can purchase the kit - pre-painted or unpainted - and install it themselves, or it can be purchased with a new Ford Fusion and installed at the dealer, pre-painted to factory specifications. Of course, it can also be ordered directly from the source. Take a look at the press release below for more detailed information on the body kit, and let us know what you think of it in Comments.
