Grants Pass, Oregon, United States

1956 Ford F100 Pickup with original Big Back Window. Some custom features: gray smoke tinted glass, no vent wings, one piece glass power windows, oak bed with custom gas tank in the rear frame under the bed, custom designed interior using the original seat in a waterfall pattern black with red piping, dark gray carpet and chrome side carpet keepers. Selling this truck for our son who is in the Air Force, recently married and having a baby. The truck has the ford 302 small block engine, the ford AOD automatic overdrive, brand new exhaust and glass packs front to rear, 22 gallon mustang fuel tank under bed, brand new balanced drive shaft, brand new 1 wire HEI distributor, all new fuel pump, water pump, plugs wires etc etc.  All new upholstery including mid fifties form fit black headliner, new mustang 2 disc brakes in front, 9" Ford drum  rear end , all brake system is brand new, new aluminum 4 core radiator with polished shroud and chrome 3000CFM 16" fan. This is an original big back window truck. Our son took it down to the bare frame and then painted the frame a chassis black paint. He wanted to keep the original front axle. He added a set of reversed eye front lowering springs. He had the entire front tin around the core support powder coated black gloss including the inner fenders.. He installed all new rubber everywhere, new body mounts, motor mounts, tranny mount. He purchased and installed the red oak bed wood and stainless strips and bolts. The back glass was missing when he bought the truck so he purchased that and then installed the 1 piece tinted windows in the doors. He filled in the dash ashtray and radio holes. He never decided what radio system he wanted so none was ever installed. He has the original heater and had it powder coated but never got round to finding a heater core or installing the heater.The chrome grill is from Bob Drake Ford along with almost $2000 worth of other goodies and chrome stuff he bought from Bob Drake. The truck has some work to do to finish it up but overall a really nice rust free example. The fenders and cab had very little body work to do and a friend of mine hammer finished, (peck and filed), what we did find.  To be quite honest, our son wanted to go  into the USAF and he just plain lost interest in all his vehicles.

Shelby boosts production of 575-hp Raptor on early demand

Mon, 08 Apr 2013

Shelby American unveiled its all-new Shelby Raptor at the New York Auto Show last month, saying that it would build just 100 examples of its off-road bad boy, a pickup priced at $17,995 over the cost of the donor Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. But the Las Vegas outfit apparently underestimated just how popular the supercharged 575-horsepower 4x4 would actually be.
Strong early demand reportedly has Shelby singing a whole new tune, as the company is now saying it will build upwards of 500 units annually. While the increased production will likely make for at least 400 more happy owners, those who were on the original short list - possibly speculating on future values - might not be grinning as much. Needless to say, the company has assured everyone that each and every one of the modified Raptors will still be listed in the official Shelby registry.
Keep in mind that Ford isn't sitting idle on its trophy-truck-for-the-street, either. The company will reveal its own 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition this month.

Ford blamed in drug mule lawsuit

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

If a college student is caught smuggling drugs across the border, one might think the kid got what was coming to him. But when a Mexican student at the University of Texas in El Paso was caught by Border Patrol agents with duffel bags filled with marijuana in his trunk, the man used a classic excuse: He claimed they weren't his.
While a claim like that is almost unbelievable, Ricardo Magallanes, the student, is now suing Ford for handling its vehicles' key codes negligently enough to allow drug smugglers to break into his Ford Focus and stash the drugs, The Daily Caller reports. The twist here is that four other people who lived in Juarez and worked in El Paso were involved in the same type of scheme - allegedly unwittingly, just like Magallanes - and all the cars were Fords except one model from General Motors. FBI agents also found an employee at a Dallas Ford dealership that had accessed the key codes to all four of the cannabis-stuffed Fords.
While we all may not own Fords, the case still causes us slight paranoia. We'll definitely be checking our trunks before we cross any more international borders.
