1966 Ford F100 Twin I beam, Custom Cab, Ranger Edition, 352 V-8, C6 automatic transmission, original California Collector's truck. Freshly restored, great condition in and out!

This is a VERY RARE truck! In 1965 Ford came out with a new option for Ford pick ups called the Ranger option. It consisted of bucket seats, carpeting, and a curtain that covered the gas tank behind the seats. These trucks used the same seats as the 65 & 66 Mustangs. There were so few of these trucks produced that most people have never heard of them, much less seen one.

This truck also has Twin I-Beam front suspension first introduced in the 1965 model, giving the trucks a more car-like ride while maintaining work-truck strength. Front leaf springs were replaced with coil springs, and the twin axles were held in place by large-radius arms. Splitting the axles allowed each wheel to travel over bumps and potholes independently, resulting in a much smoother ride.

This one is uncut with original parts and in near flawless condition for a 47 year old truck! She has fresh paint including Line-X spray on bedliner and brand new reupholstered interior. 

Everything on this truck been rebuilt or replaced within the last few years. She is extremely sound mechanically and can definitely be a daily driver. Clean title, currently registered until Feb. 2014, even has original California black plates! 

This is a extremely hard to find ORIGINAL truck that has not been cut, dropped, hot rodded, modified, or turned into a frankenstein truck with parts from other trucks like most ones out there. Plus she has a hard to find 352 V-8 with an automatic transmission. Most F100s you will find for sale are 6 cyl with manual transmissions.

Ford pits The Stig against Gran Turismo 6 in Focus ST Goodwood run

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the world great automotive gatherings. So, it was the perfect event for Ford to give the refreshed 2015 Focus ST its world debut in front of a loving public. It even surprised us with a new diesel-powered version, as well.
The Blue Oval really put its focus on making the ST a better driver for this refresh. It left its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder alone to still pump out a respectable 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque. The changes like a retuned front suspension, electric power steering and improved interior made the hot hatch an even better place to spend time behind the wheel.
To prove that the Focus ST is still as potent as ever, Ford set up a one-on-one race up the Goodwood Hill. But instead of putting the two cars side-by-side, former Stig from Top Gear UK, Ben Collins, piloted the real model up the course, and his rival drove the virtual version in Gran Turismo 6. The two hot hatches set off at the same time to see whether reality could beat the virtual world, and the finish was actually extremely close. Scroll down to watch the video and find out the winner of this battle at Goodwood.

Nuclear-powered concept cars from the Atomic Age

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

In the 1950s and early 60s, the dawn of nuclear power was supposed to lead to a limitless consumer culture, a world of flying cars and autonomous kitchens all powered by clean energy. In Europe, it offered the then-limping continent a cheap, inexhaustible supply of power after years of rationing and infrastructure damage brought on by two World Wars.
The development of nuclear-powered submarines and ships during the 1940s and 50s led car designers to begin conceptualizing atomic vehicles. Fueled by a consistent reaction, these cars would theoretically produce no harmful byproducts and rarely need to refuel. Combining these vehicles with the new interstate system presented amazing potential for American mobility.
But the fantasy soon faded. There were just too many problems with the realities of nuclear power. For starters, the powerplant would be too small to attain a reaction unless the car contained weapons-grade atomic materials. Doing so would mean every fender-bender could result in a minor nuclear holocaust. Additionally, many of the designers assumed a lightweight shielding material or even forcefields would eventually be invented (they still haven't) to protect passengers from harmful radiation. Analyses of the atomic car concept at the time determined that a 50-ton lead barrier would be necessary to prevent exposure.
