We have owned this pickup since 1985. Found it "forgotten" in a farmer's yard. We have done a total restoration, and then modernized it to make it safe at today's highway speeds.Started restoration by re and re'ing cab corner posts, and removing all damage and bondo and replacing with steel. Powered by a 1964 Thunderbird 390 cid, that has been totally rebuilt. Paired to a rebuilt C6 Tranny, with a B & M slap-stick shifter built in to a custom console, which is between bucket seats. The drive train is balanced, with new u-joints, and attached to a 9" Ford Rear end. Custom anti sway bars front and rear, and new power disc brakes on front (Corvette), with stock drums on rear. Dual exhaust with two flowmaster mufflers, with chrome tips. Flip down rear licence plate (with lites). Bed is custom made of spruce with marine varnish with stainless strips between planks. Rear of deck features stainless plate that house two LED turn/signal lites. Anyone who flashes their highbeams at me, get it right back in their own face from the pooilished stainless plate. Cab interior has black carpets. Bucket seats that are cloth...grey with teal insert to match exterior color scheme. Dash and interior painted same teal color as exterior, but roof, door panels and rear wall are covered in grey upholstrey material. Fuel tank that was originally inside the cab, behind the bench seat is "history."..made extra storage space for small suitcase for road trips. Replaced that stock interior tank with a new 25 gallon tank, placed between frame rails at rear of vehicle, with a hidden fuel filler cap. Shaved door handles. Shaved fuel filler cap. Keyless entry. Hidden mechanical passenger door release. Alarmed. Extra red warning lite on dash to signal alarm working. Air Horn which has own electric air compressor and tank under driver's side, also has regular electric horn.Flaming River Steering wheel. All new Dolphin Guages including tach. Milage starts at zero with total rebuild. This is a NEW 1960 Pickup, thus low, low mileage. Exterior Sun Visor. Halogen headlites. Parking lites are wired to stay on when headlites are "on." Mag wheels with radial tires.(80% tread remaining) Am/FM/CD Alpine system with frenched in power antenna. There is NO RUST or any damage or electrical issues. This pickup can be driven immediately, anywhere at highway speeds, and then some. We are selling it, and all of our other collector vehicles, as we are downsizing to a smaller home, with no garage/storage area. This is NOT a desperation sale. Have investered over 100-thousand dollars to make this a one-of-a kind-eye-candy vehicle, that will be worth more with each pasing year. There is nothing else needed to be done, except drive and enjoy. Priced to sell at $42,500 firm.

Ford readying 2015 F-150 drift truck for SEMA
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Between the Mustangs you'd find in Formula D and the Fiestas in the Global and World rallycross championships, there's no shortage of Ford drift cars on the scene. But at the upcoming SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the Blue Oval automaker intends to show off a different kind of drift machine.
Created in collaboration with driftmeister Vaughn Gittin, Jr., this custom F-150 has been designed for "on- and off-road capabilities, as well as drifting and jumping." It's got a suspension with components from Kibbetech King and Air Lift Performance to give it 12 inches of travel and comes packed with 5 Recaro seats. Other details remain limited, but if the rendering above is anything to go by, it ought to be pretty awesome.
Alongside the Gittin truck, Ford will also be showcasing another F-150 designed together with freestyle motorcross rider Brian Deegan, packing the 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine and a long list of enhancements. Between these two trucks, Ford hopes to extend its winning streak for the Hottest Truck award that it's taken four years running now. Feel free to read more in the press release below.

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...
