1959 Ford F-100 Short Bed, Side Step, Hot Rod Truck Pickup
Builder collected rust free components to put together this great little truck.
- Truck Frame from a 1959
- Truck Bed from a 1959 (one of 501 specialed ordered for the Navy that is taller then standard side step beds)
- Truck Cab from a 1960
Features:
Fresh 302 includes Stainless Steel Values, Flat Top Pistons, High Volume Oil Pump, New 4-Barrel Carb, Aluminum High Rise Manifold, Long Tube Headers, Nicely Tuner Mufflers (has the sound!), New Cooling System, Dual Electric Fans with Manual Control for Slow Crusing, Power Steering, Steering Column from a 1964 Galaxie, Power Brakes with Large Front Discs, Mustang Seats with Power on the Driver's Side, Custom Built Fuel Cell in Bed, Cool Looking Old School Craiger Mags, Recent Front Suspension Rebuilt.
The paint is not the best. This is a fun truck to drive, fast, gets lots of thumbs up. Is not a rattler, except over the rail road tracks. Drives straight as an arrow hands free at 70 (this is not a habit~just testing). Did have a bump shifter on fabricated console, but I replaced with a colume shift for more cabin room.
Sounds incredible with exhaust exiting under the side steps. Has new front and back glass. Needs a replacement passenger side door glass. Will include plans to install a Mustang gas tank between rear frame rails, which was going to be my next project while replacing bed floor. This is a nice looking truck, but I consider it a driving project because of remaining small projects: interior, tank and bed floor.
Purchased from builder 5 years ago and don't drive it enough to keep. On another note, the truck is titled as a 1960 because of the cab.

2014 Ford Transit Connect configurator fires up for the whole family
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The second-generation Ford Transit Connect is almost upon us, and to get work- and family-oriented customers ready for the new model, Ford has launched a configurator for both van and wagon versions. Both body styles will go on sale early next year with the base TC Van starting at $22,000, but customers wanting side windows and rear seats will have to pony up at least an extra $3,000 for the TC Wagon.
Ford is definitely looking to get back into the family van business with the 2014 TC Wagon offering three available trim levels, two engines and the choice between five- and seven-passenger seating (with two wheelbases). Like many recent Ford products, a fancy Titanium trim level is offered, and opting for it will cost you - this trim starts at $29,000, and we were able to spec it out with a panoramic roof, tow package and front and rear parking sensors for a little over $33,000.
Businesses looking for a small, fuel-efficient work vehicle now get more options on the TC Van like the choice of split, hinged rear doors or a liftgate (with or without glass), a long wheelbase ($1,000) and Ford's CrewChief vehicle tracking system ($925). Fully loaded, this van is still costs less than the fullsize E-Series. On both Van and Wagon, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine is a $795 option, but it is only offered on short-wheelbase models and Ford has yet to release power or fuel economy specs yet. With the standard 2.5-liter engine, the TC will get up to 21 miles per gallon in the city and 29 mpg on the highway.
Ford Ka Concept shown in Brazil, could enter production by 2014
Wed, 13 Nov 2013The Ford Ka (pronounce it like a Bostonian saying "car") is the Blue Oval's sub-Fiesta offering in a number of markets that aren't North America. It's been a staple in Europe since it launched in 1996 and in South America since 1997, where it's enjoyed quite a bit of popularity as an affordable, efficient city car.
The European and South American models grew apart over the years, until Europe ended up with a Fiesta-inspired car and Brazil retained a more evolved version of the original Ka's styling. With this Ka Concept, which is really a concept in name only, Ford is previewing a Ka not just for the European market, but as the brand's new, global small car. With city car sales expected to grow dramatically in coming years and the ever increasing price of fuel, Ford's move to get a new, competitive car into the market on a global level isn't surprising.
Wearing Ford's new, familial grille, the Ka Concept features the same crisp, sculpted sheetmetal that's adorned the Fusion and Fiesta. Developed in-house by Ford Brazil, a production version could launch by 2014, according to Ford's press release. It's unclear what engines will sit under this car's hood, although we'd bet the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Fiesta will be available at some point.
Plethora of 2015 Ford F-150 customs runs the gamut at SEMA
Wed, 05 Nov 2014
Of Ford's customized trucks, two feature the name of famous Ford racers.
Of all the OEMs making appearances at the 2014 SEMA show, Ford owns arguably the most significant group of vehicles, thanks to its new 2015 F-150 and Mustang. While you can look for our Mustang coverage soon, we've managed to sneak out and get snaps of some of a few of the F-150s on display at the company's sprawling, 20,000-square-foot display (look for even more aftermarket F-150 goodness in the coming days).
