This is the semi-tragic story of a guy in the middle of starting his own business who got this build to about 85% completion, then simply became too busy to finish his once-beloved 1956 F-100 side project. It's now sitting around taking up space, so it's time to say goodbye. Don't let the paint fool you at first glance, this is no driveway junker. This is an 85% potential show truck with a ton of subtle mods and attention to details. It is a perfect project for someone looking for an easy hot rod build or even a quick fix-and-sell vehicle. Minor tuning, a tiny bit of wiring, and light bodywork are just about all this truck needs to be a completely unique custom hot-rod.

Ford 429 with headers, holley 750 carb, C6 transmission painted red/chrome motif. Top end gaskets replaced preventatively a few years ago, mileage on engine unknown but I've barely driven it.
Ford 9" rear (recently replaced seals)
Not currently running but can be made to run again very easily.
Rear axle flip kit installed
Air lift helper springs in rear in case you want to carry heavier loads or just jack the back up for a cool hot rod stance.
Fiberglass tilt nose with custom radiator and inner fenderwell supports. hinges with tailgate straps to support it. Right front fender piece of fiberglass is broken. I have 2 pieces here but just never got the chance to fiberglass the 2 pieces together.
Custom hinges for nose, attched to bumper, so the bumper tilts with the nose.
Underbed aluminum fuel cell installed, rear crossmember moved. Electric in-line fuel pump on switch to act as a secondary feed to the manual pump in case you park on a hill or let the truck sit for a long time. Flip the switch to feed fuel up the fuel lines for a few seconds, then turn it off and crank it right over.
Front door lip corners rounded and door frame reshaped to match.
Tons of custom work in the bed. Bed sides built out 2" across stake pockets then reskinned, making the bed wall thicker, and adding more clearance for fatter tires. All corners radiused and rounded for a "chubby" custom look. Subtle, but looks cool and aggressive. Bed is designed so a simple custom tailgate will sit perfectly flush with bed corners.

Mulally confirms he's not leaving Ford for Microsoft
Tue, 07 Jan 2014In recent months, rumors had been flying about Ford CEO Alan Mulally potentially leaving the company to take a position at Microsoft. Last we heard, Mulally was planning to stick around at Ford through at least 2014, and in an interview today, that bit was confirmed by the CEO himself.
According to the Associated Press, in a report from The Detroit News, Mulally said he will not be leaving Ford for Microsoft, and reiterated that he will remain at the Blue Oval through 2014, if not longer. Mulally has "no plans other than to serve Ford," according to the report.
Mulally did not say whether or not he had been in talks with Microsoft at any point. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has said he plans to leave the software company sometime this year.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
United States drivers buying fewer Mexican-made cars
Tue, May 10 2016Crossovers and pickup trucks are not only growing in market share, they're also more profitable than cars. A crossover on the same platform as a sedan retails for thousands more, despite similar components. It's one of the reasons we've seen automakers rapidly shifting production of their sedans and hatchbacks to Mexico, where cheap labor preserves the thin profit margins on these inexpensive vehicles. But as the market continues to shift in the United States, Mexico is getting burned by its lack of product diversity. The country's auto exports, which are heavy on cars, suffered a 16-percent drop last month, Automotive News reports. In total, year-over-year exports fell from 233,515 to 197,020 last month, while year-to-date exports are down by 7.4 percent, from 922,029 to 854,118. The number one culprit? America – which usually accounts for 75 percent of Mexico's exports – and its appetite for crossovers and pickup trucks bolstered by cheap gas prices. While Mexico does build some light truck models – AN specifically calls out the Ram 2500, Honda HR-V, GMC Sierra, and Toyota Tacoma as export leaders – the vast majority of vehicles rolling out of its factories are sedans and hatchbacks. In fact, the three biggest drops in Mexican exports came from companies whose south of the border factories only build cars – Ford (Fusion/Lincoln MKZ and Fiesta), Mazda (Mazda3), and Volkswagen (Golf and Jetta). Mexican Automotive Industry Association President Eduardo Solis told AN the export shortfall will likely be sorted out sooner rather than later, thanks to a pair of new factories – a Kia car factory and an Audi SUV plant – that are coming online by year's end. The two facilities will add around 100,000 vehicles to the country's export totals, which Solis said should leave the industry on the verge of breaking another export record in 2016. But how sustainable will these record-breaking years be? Slapping an "Hecho en Mexico" sticker on a new German SUV won't be enough to change the fact that Mexico's product mix is tilted too heavily towards body styles that are not growing in volume. Mexico's record-breaking export years probably aren't at an end, but we'd argue they're certainly under threat.
