1970 Ford F-100 Styleside Big Block 472ci on 2040-cars
Fontana, California, United States
Up for sale is a 1970 Ford F-100 Styleside custom lwb truck with a big block. This pick up was fully restored and documented with a book of receipts. All work was performed by Street Pro Auto Rod & Truck Center in Ramona, CA. The engine is a fully built Ford 460 bored 60 over with a C-6 3 speed trans. Here is a list of mods done to the drive train. -Crower 16903 Beast Hydraulic Flat Tappet Cams -DynoMax 89016 Performance Exhaust 2.25” -Edelbrock 2166 Performer intake manifold -B&M 40281 C-6 Deep oil pan -Lokar KD-20C6ht Performance Hi-Tech Kickdown Kit -Doug Thorley 214Y-F14-C Performance Headers w/Jet Hot coating-Mallory 605 Ignition Module-Mallory 29440 Promaster Ignition Coil-MSD 3138 Heli-Core Solid Suppression Ultra temp wires-Crower 73617-16 Enduro Stud Mount Roller Rocker Arms-Melling M84DHV High-Volume Oil Pump- Mallory 5056701H Magnetic Breakerless Electronic Ignition System- Weiand 8211 Action-Plus Aluminum Water Pump - Vista-Pro 433433 Ready-Rad Aluminium Radiator-Port and Polished Heads by Street Pro Auto Rod & Truck-Holley 850 Double Pumper Carburetor-Eagle Performance Forged Crankshaft-ARP Performance Bolts-KB 137.060 Performance Flat top pistons-Scat 66605 Connecting RodsIm sure im missing some parts here and there. This was not a “run of the mill” type of build. Everything was professionally installed and tuned. Engine is pushing 500hp on current mild tune which can (but I would not) run on 87 pump gas (91 recommended). The restoration began in August 2000 and was completed by July 2003 so basically an 11 year old truck. Miles on motor and chassis are 14,815 give or a take a mile or two since I do drive it around town on the weekends.The paint was also done at Street Pro Auto Rod & Truck. It’s a three stage paint job that still looks great. The paint job cost $3,774.09 in total. Have the receipts to prove it. Didn’t take much prep work since it has been a black plate original California Truck its whole life. Yes, I said original Black Plates since the day it was purchased new from the Ford dealer. One thing that’s nice about the paint job was that the flames were added after the fact. Meaning they were painted on top of the blue clear coat. I have not attempted removing but from what I’m told this is possible without damaging the original blue underneath.The interior is in good shape. Like a mentioned previously it is a 11 year old restoration/hot rod truck so there is some wear. The carpet will need to be replaced in my option. It has seen better days but I have already received a quote to replace the carpet for $200. All original gauges work other then the engine temp and volt meter. As you can see in the pictures they have been upgraded to aftermarket Auto Gage cluster which monitors oil pressure, volts, water temp and trans temp. All gauges work and light up at night when the headlights are turned on. As far as the sound system goes it consists of a Sony radio with a 10 disc cd changer. There are 6x9 speakers in both the driver and passenger doors. Behind the driver and passenger seats there are two MTX 10” subwoofers in separate boxes along with tweeters built in. Sounds amazing...Moving on to the exterior. The truck is sitting on Cragar wheels with Mickey Thompson 6559 Sportsman PRO 29x18.50 rear tires and Uniroyal 195/65r15 front tires. The rears are extremely wide and add to the aggressive look. The rear end is 9 inch Ford which im not sure of the gearing. All chrome around the entire vehicle looks great. The door handles are showing some pitting and will need to be either replaced or re chromed. The bed of the truck is in awesome shape with a spray in bed liner and dual gas tanks.I have added up all receipts that I have totalling $19,137.48 which does not include the truck, purchase of the 460 and the interior work which these were all paid with cash. Truck has current registration which just got paid till June 30, 2015. I have the pink slip in hand so please have the cash in yours. If there are any more questions that you might have please feel free to contact me. Good luck and happy bidding.On Jul-05-14 at 17:51:39 PDT, seller added the following information: Added a video on YouTube of the truck running so you can get a feel for the sound. Truck is running a little rich so you will see some blue smoke when i give it gas. Runs perfect and if you dont mind 8 mpg you can use it as a daily driver. http://youtu.be/i6JI72ZqDQI |

Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here
Fri, 07 Mar 2014A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.
Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output
Mon, Jan 6 2014How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.
Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
