What your getting is a very good start on a 1955 f100. Frame has mustang II front end with disk brakes. 9 inch rear end with disk brakes. Boxed frame. Frame was painted a purplish color a while ago. Needs a tailgate but rest of the body is solid and rust free. Comes with a new steering wheel and new, taillights. A pair of buckets. A few totes of the old parts taken off. I found this and natched it up. These are very popular and hard to come by in this shape. Is set up for sbc and trans.Comes with a strong 428 and c6. Both were rebuilt by the mechanic that I bought them from. I drove and ran them before pulling and the engine is strong and runs hard. Holly 4 barrel and upgraded ignition. The engine and trans are not in the truck. If bought with buy it now I will have the chassis shop next to my body shop weld in the motor mounts and bolt the engine in to make it easier to ship. If it doesn't sell I will paint it and build it. I have a body shop and will paint it for you for a price. Any questions please ask. I will help with loading the truck and meeting a shipping company at my shop if you set up the shipper I will store for one month for free to help out. I would like 500 paid as a no return deposit to hold it and the rest in cash or cashiers check mailed to me. Does have headers on the 428 and the drive shaft from the doner car Thanks

Expert: 54.5 mpg CAFE standard can be reached without many plug-ins
Sat, Jan 18 2014Johnson Controls executive Brian Kesseler isn't likely to get any holiday presents this year from Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn or Tesla Motors head Elon Musk, but lots of other folks might be happy with what he has to say about automakers' efforts to reach stricter fleetwide fuel-economy standards. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress, Kesseler said automakers wouldn't need to sell an extensive number of plug-in vehicles in order to meet the 54.5 mile per gallon Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard the US government set in 2012 for 2025 model-year vehicles. In fact, he said, components such as stop-start engine technology, turbochargers and direct injection may actually do the trick. Already, things like smaller engine sizes and lighter cars are already playing major roles in spurring fuel-efficiency gains. Of course, Johnson Controls sells batteries specially built for stop-start systems, so Kesseler does have a bit of skin in this game. The 54.5-mpg CAFE standard equates to about a 40-mpg "real world" fuel-efficiency level. To put that into perspective, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in a report late last year that model-year 2013 average fuel economy was an even 24 mpg. That was up from 23.6 mpg for the 2012 model year and 22.4 mpg for 2011.

1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
