One nice solid 1959 Ford F-100 pick up truck.The truck is a 1/2 ton short wheelbase with the fleetside bed,the overall condition is very nice driver condition it is not show perfect but above average driver quality.The body is very nice the truck was painted once I think in the late seventies or early eighties,the paint is in nice condition but it does have some chips and scratches and some spots where the paint is thin where it has been polished,there also are some spots where the paint has been touched up. I don`t see any rust issues in the body other than a little spot on the bottom inside below the hinge on the passenger door.There are some spots on the body where you can see the body filler cracking,all this is minor and cannot be seen unless right on the area.The tailgate does have some damage where it has broke and been rewelded,also it has a some dents in it along the center section.The inside of the bed is nice with minimal wear and tear.It does have snaps attached to the bed side where it had a tonneau cover at one time.The grille and bumpers are all nice.The rubber around the windows does show its age.The wheels are not the stock wheels and are 15 inch with newer BF Goodrich Silvertons wide whitewall tires.The engine and transmission are both all stock with the exception of the engine exhaust crossover pipe has been remove and dual exhust installed,it also has the Petronix conversion done to the stock distributor.The engine runs good with no real issues it could use a good tune-up and possibly a carb overhaul to make it really purr.The trans is the factory granny low 4 speed trans it works good with no issues,the rest of the drivertrain as far as I know is in good shape.I have put quite of trouble free miles on the truck and it drives stops and rides nice for an old truck. It has no power steering or brakes.The inside is nice as well it has what appears to be a factory headliner that covers the floor and the sides of the rear window.The seat and floor mat are both nice as well the I/P lights wipers all work.The truck also has a vintage Dixco tach with vintage Stewart warner temp and oil pressure gauges.The truck would make a nice driver for the entry level Classic car person,A nice period 1960`s hot rod base to start with or a nice solid piece to do the frame off restoration. Please ask any questions and it is avaliable for personal inspection or test drive if you are local. I will require a 500.00 deposit within 48 hours and payment in full at pick-up. The truck is licensed and road worthy but it is not a comfortable long journey ride.I have the California title in hand.So if you are looking for a nice ride for next summer here it is !!!!

Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
Ford builds USAF Thunderbirds Edition Mustang for charity
Tue, 02 Jul 2013Each year since 2008, Ford has created a one-off Mustang to celebrate military aviation, and the cars have been auctioned off at the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Gathering of Eagles charity event to raise money to inspire the next generation of aviators. This year's charity car is the 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition, which also helps celebrate 60 years of Thunderbirds air show excellence.
Of all the EAA charity cars, this Thunderbirds Edition is the most in depth. Painted to match the F-16 Tomcat fighter jets used by Thunderbirds, this Mustang also gets a widebody kit and 22-inch Forgiato wheels to go with the cockpit's Recaro bucket seats, rear-seat delete and modified navigation screen and gauge cluster. Even the Mustang's projector puddle lights have been changed to show an aircraft silhouette - rather than the Mustang's galloping horse logo - when the doors are open.
Themes for previous EAA charity cars include the Blue Angels, SR-71 Blackbird and the Red Tails as well as the F-22 Raptor-inspired AV8R and AV-X10 "Dearborn Doll" models. Scroll down for the press release for the 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition, and be sure to check out our galleries for all six aviation-themed Mustangs.
Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle
Sun, Aug 21 2022The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.
