Stunning F100 Ford Restored Pickup Truck. 350 Engine. Multiple Car Show Winner. on 2040-cars
Arlington Heights, Illinois, United States
|
Hello I am selling one of my favorite cars I have ever owned in my life. My 1951 ford f100 pickup. This car has been to countless car shows with me and my sons and everyone comes to talk to me about the car.
VIN Number is F2R1KC28323 This car has had alot of money invested into it to make it what it is today. I used her for car shows and sunday driving but she would be great for someone who would want a daily driver as well. She starts up everytime with no hesitation. Even after sitting a couple weeks she starts no problem. The Engine is a very reliable 350 Small block which is attached to a 4 speed cast iron truck transmission. I actually start the car in 2nd gear everytime because 1st gear has way too much torque. A really fun and fast car to drive. But driving down the highway at 60 mph I use one hand on the steering wheel because it drives so smooth. This car has all the features of modern day cars. It has power steering, disk brakes, cd/dvd player, heater, hydraulic bed lift, led taillights and a very very nice bed cover. All lights highbeams drls headlights turn signals brake lights work perfect. Clutch and trans work flawless shift very smooth and very easy. Engine as stated before runs extremley strong. Wheels are like new condition and match the car very well. Tires have about 70 percent tread all around left. THERE IS ABSOLUTLEY NO RUST ON THE CAR AT ALL. This car has been stored in a heated garage and never seen rain or snow since I have owned it. The paint is a very beutiful color and it shines very well as you can see. But it has a couple very minor flaws. The interior is very clean and well taken care of. Power steering allows for easy turning of the wheel. The seats are very very comfortable. Floor mounted shifter is really ergonomic. Truck bed has a very nice cover. Not some cheaply made bed cover. The bed goes up and down with a press of a button although I disconnected it because it was draining the battery after a couple of weeks without starting her. I would put it up in car shows and it would turn heads. It has an eddelbrock carburator which cost over 300 dollars to give it a nice performance boost. Car has great sound and purrs like a v8 should. Disk brakes stop on a dime. This is a steal for the amount of truck your getting for the money. You wont find a better one for anywhere near this price. I need the space so Im looking to sell it. With summer around the corner this is the perfect time to buy. Call me or message me for more information at 847 414 3709 My name is jack. Thank you! |

Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang appears at EAA Oshkosh
Sat, 26 Jul 2014Ford is back at the Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture air show in Oshkosh, WI, on July 31 auctioning off its seventh Mustang for charity, and this is one seriously mean looking 2015 'Stang. All of the money from the sale goes to give free introductory flights to young people to get them interested in aviation.
We recently saw this latest EAA Mustang as a sketch. However, it looks a whole lot more menacing in person. Dubbed the Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang, it takes liberal inspiration from Lockheed Martin's latest fighter jet, and the customization makes the pony car look ready for a role in Top Gun.
On the outside, the special Mustang wears titanium-color paint that's offset by a black and yellow stripe running from hood to rear. Out back things get really wild with a mix of bright yellow and black that flows diagonally all the way to the rear spoiler. The design is based on the livery of early production F-35s. If the rousing color scheme isn't enough to get you interested, the car also gets a carbon fiber front splitter and rear diffuser, lowered suspension and a set of custom 21-inch wheels with yellow brake calipers.
American automakers fall in latest Fortune 500 rankings
Fri, 10 May 2013Not that it means anything beyond bragging rights, but if you're fixated on the positions of domestic automakers on the annual Fortune 500 list, both General Motors and Ford are still on it but they've slipped a couple of notches. The list ranks American companies and they're ordered solely by revenue. GM, fifth last year, came in seventh, while Ford fell from ninth to tenth even though both companies saw small gains in annual revenue.
GM's $152.3 billion in revenue was less than a third of that of the first company on the list: Wal-Mart, which regained the title from Exxon Mobil. Berkshire Hathaway and Apple are the firms that moved GM down. Ford, displaced by energy company Valero, had $134.3 billion in revenue.
On a side note, profitability isn't a factor, but both GM and Ford were down in this year's list compared to last year's: GM declined from $9.2 billion to $6.2 billion, Ford fell from $20.2 billion to $5.6 billion. If profits were included, Exxon Mobil would probably still be king: although the energy company made almost $20 billion less in revenue than Wal-Mart's $469.2 billion, it posted $44.9 billion in profit compared to Wal-Mart's $17 billion.
What an Atlas-based Ford F-150 might look like
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Just ahead of January's Detroit Auto Show, surprising rumors pegged Ford as revealing some sort of F-150 concept, perhaps as a hurried effort to deflate some of the buzz building around General Motors' new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, which were also making their auto show debut. Those rumblings turned out to be true, as Ford rolled into the Motor City with its Atlas concept (inset, right), touting the truck's bold styling as a precursor to the next-generation F-Series.
The show truck featured all kinds of clever details, including active wheel shutters and a front air dam that raised and lowered to improve aerodynamics while preserving off-road ability. It also had a genuinely snarly face. And it's that pugnacious snout that may well be on its way to production. The good folks at TopSpeed have worked up the plausible-looking artist's rendering above by cross-referencing the Atlas concept with what little has been revealed from recent spy shots. The look is toned-down pretty dramatically from the concept truck, but its Atlas roots are clear, with a massive three-bar grille and bracket-shaped headlamps hiding a next-generation EcoBoost engine. In the rendering, the show truck's deeply contoured hood and roofline have been ditched and larger, more traditional side mirrors have been fitted - all likely concessions in the move to production sheetmetal.
While Ford has yet to officially announce when it will unveil the 2015 F-150, all signs point to next year's Detroit Auto Show - one year after the Atlas shrugged off GM's new pickups.
