San Jose, California, United States
1956 Ford Fairlane Stroked 427 Tunnel Port to 482 cid, Four Speed
Up for auction is my 1956 Ford 2 door club sedan. It has a 427 side oiler service block that has been bored and stroked to a 482 cid monster with original Tunnel Port heads. It has roller rockers, high volume oil pump and the best of everything Everything is new, engine built professionally and has less than 200 miles. The car looks awesome and is straight as can be with no bondo. The engine is backed up by a Ford T-10 4-speed that has also been rebuilt with new clutch. The car has custom headers and newer 3" exhaust with a x-pipe. Has a new HP950 4 barrel carb and new aluminum radiator. There is way too much to list so please ask questions before bidding. Is fun to drive however I don't drive as much as I should. This is probably the nicest 56 Ford you will find and it has an old school 427 Tunnel Port!!
The body & paint are in very good condition! The car has the same paint on it from when I purchased it years ago. The car is very solid. The body panels are super straight and everything lines right up. There has been no repairs to body panels or the floor panels due to rust since the car is RUST FREE! The chrome is NOT perfect, I would say good condition. The tires have about 300 miles on them. The bumpers are good quality. The other trim is in good condition. The interior is the blue/white. Very nice headliner and trim. Extra gauges added including Tach.
Engine runs great, no problems or funny noises. The distributor has an MSD electronic control. The carb is a HP950 which is a very nice carb. The four speed works great. The engine runs very strong and fast. No fluid leaks, no smoking, no overheating. The cooling system has a flex fan with an electrical auxiliary fan mounted on the radiator. Steering is straight and solid. The brakes are Disc up front and Drum in the back. All fluids have been changed and are fresh.
In closing I believe you will not find another classic 56 Ford in this type of condition especially finding one with a Tunnel Port motor? Never! Please ask any questions before you bid, and I will not be willing to sell engine and car separate so please don't ask. This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. The car is available for inspection by you or your mechanic at your expense at any time however it is not insured at this time. Serious bidders only! I will require a non-refundable $5000 deposit within 72 hours of close of this add. Remaining funds MUST be paid by cash or bank wire transfer. I will however accept a cashiers check if I am with you at the bank when you receive it. The remaining funds will need to be paid in full within 7 days of close of auction.

Transit Courier completes Ford's new commercial van line, will we get it?
Sat, 13 Apr 2013This week Ford rolled out the 2014 Transit Courier, the fourth addition to its Transit range. Ford says its the first time for the nameplate in the compact van segment.
"Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers," said Barb Samardzich, vice president of product development for Ford Europe. "With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 percent more than we sell today."
When the Courier goes on sale in the Spring of 2014, it will offer more than 1,400 pounds of payload capacity, multiple mounting points for racks or other framework and a rear cargo area that can carry items 5.3 feet-long. An optional folding passenger seat boosts the cargo length to 8.5 feet.
Winnebago re-introduces classic Brave RV [w/video]
Fri, Jun 6 2014Winnebago is saying 'Let's do the time warp again,' using its new Brave RV to do it – have a look at the first Winnebago RV from 1966 and you'll know exactly where this one comes from. The modern version of this swinging sixties motorhome is accurate from its size, either 26- or 27-foot version, to its trademark eyebrow above the front windshield. The foldaway bunk above the front seats that necessitated the eyebrow design has been updated, and is now a power bed that descends from the ceiling. It is among a set of standard features that also includes a 19-foot motorized awning, leveling jacks at all four corners, heated mirrors, LED ceiling lights, two available floorplans and detailing like a workstation for the front passenger, a sliding dash cluster and and a waterfall countertop in the kitchen with built-in extensions. The Brave sits on a Ford F53 chassis complete with its Triton V10 engine and five-speed automatic transmission. No word yet on any potential diesel alternatives. Naturally, that 1966 price of $4,000 will also come in for an update, but the company hasn't yet revealed it. The good folks from Winnebago will be happy to take you on a thorough personal tour of the Brave in the video below. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford wants to double hybrid offerings by 2020
Wed, Jan 15 2014The Blue Oval is looking for folks on the other side of this Big Old Sphere to get on board with its hybrid offerings. Ford executive Raj Nair, speaking at the Detroit Auto Show this week, said the US automaker wants to double the number of hybrids models it offers by the end of the decade, Reuters reports. Details of what that actually means is anyone's guess, as it was unclear how many of those models would be in the US and how many would be overseas. That said, Nair did say that prospective customers in regions such as China and Europe would drive the expansion of offerings. Ford got off to a great start in the US last year on its hybrid sales, but then tailed off towards the end of 2013. Ford more than doubled its green-car sales in 2013 to almost 88,000 units. In that number were more than 37,000 Fusion Hybrids and more than 28,000 C-Max Hybrids sold domestically. The company also sold almost 7,500 Lincoln MKZ Hybrids. Ford's green-car totals for 2013 were up fivefold at the mid-year point, hinting that Ford's hybrid sales plateaued, at least temporarily, in recent months.
