For Sale is a beautifully crafted 1965 Ford F100 Styleside Pickup.

The body is very straight and clean of rust. The engine is one of a kind - A professionally built FE 428 Cobra Jet engine with less than 100mi since construction using a " New " old stock engine block. Forged internal components and precise California engine building produce 550+ horsepower and 600ft lbs of torque. Gear shifting is accomplished thru a TCI C-6 automatic transmission with a cobra jet servo, standard valve body and 2000 rpm TCI stall converter. All this power is handled thru a newly built 9" rear-end with 3.89 Richmond gears, Auburn pro series limited slip posi, Moser forged steel custom axles with Torrington bearings & steel retainer plates.

This truck is a no expense spared show/race truck. It has all new mechanical and a completely new electrical system professionally installed by the best of California. It runs and drives excellently and has done the quarter mile in mid 11 second runs. We have not pushed it past that point, as the engine is still being broken in. The body is smooth/clean and could be show room painted within a few days. The interior is setup with a single racing seat and 5 point harness. This makes the Truck an amazingly easy street rod show truck project by simply adding the turn signals and brake lights, then finishing the interior and exterior to your desires. Alternatively, this truck is ready to be an awesome drag vehicle. Just fill the tank and go and don't even worry about the show room paint job!

The truck has spent its entire life in the California desert were it was dry and preserved. I purchased it about 4 years ago and never got around to finishing it to the way I wanted. It's being kept inside my facility in West Palm Beach, Florida. Please email me to schedule an appointment to see and hear the truck.

Bellow is a complete list of the specifications. The truck has a large amount of documentation and spare parts included with the sale. Please - only serious buyers.

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013



Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".

Ford auctioning off F-35-themed 2015 Mustang for charity

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Ford's been a supporter of EAA AirVenture, a huge, annual air show held in Oshkosh, WI, for several years now, with one of its most notable contributions being a modified Ford Mustang, designed to look like one of America's great fighting aircraft. There was an SR-71 Mustang, based on the legendary spy plane, a Red Tails edition, which honored the ground-breaking Tuskegee Airmen of World War II, as well as Blue Angels and Thunderbird Mustangs, based on America's two great military aerial demonstration teams.
Each car is auctioned off, with all proceeds going to the EAA Young Eagles program, which introduces kids to the joy of flight. For the 2014 AirVenture, which runs from July 28 to August 3, the one-off pony car is based on the new-for-2015 Mustang, and America's latest fighting aircraft - the controversial F-35 Lightning II.
The unique Mustang sports titanium paint scheme, with both glossy and matte sections, as well as yellow-and-blue trim and decal elements inspired by CF-1, the first F-35 test plane. A carbon-fiber front splitter and rear diffuser add some visual eye candy, while the interior boasts a set of Recaro seats. Ford also opted to fit unique wheels and a brawnier rear spoiler, to tie everything together.

Ford's official Euro aftermarket partner Mountune coming to US

Tue, 06 Aug 2013

Now that we're getting a steady stream of Ford's European offerings, the aftermarket world is finally starting to catch up as well. UK-based aftermarket tuning company, Mountune has just announced that it will be setting up shop in California to provide high-performance and racing parts for Ford vehicles including the Focus ST and Fiesta ST.
Mountune lays claim to being Ford's "official European tuning partner," and US buyers will soon have access to these parts through Ford dealerships and with a Ford Racing warranty. Speaking of Ford Racing, Mountune also says that it will be working with Ford's in-house team to develop future components for both street and track. There are no specifics as of yet for which products will be offered here, but the company plans to launch a US-specific website later this month with more information.
