You are looking at a real California Custom Cruiser that the whole family can enjoy! This 1957 Ford has the right "Kustom Kulture Look" The body is straight and solid shot in Grey high fill primer, ready for paint. It starts, drives and stops very well. It has a low mileage 292 cu in Y-Block engine with a new 2 barrel Holley carburetor, great on gas. The “Three on the Tree” Transmission shifts well. I have replaced the battery, coil, distributor cap, rotor, condenser, plugs wires, put an electric fuel pump on it, all wiring has been either replaced or fixed, new starter solenoid, new 12 Volt “One Wire alternator” conversion with custom brackets, put a cut off switch in for the battery it's under the dash so it's hidden installed it because these cars were easy to hot wire, radiator was removed flushed, new upper and lower hoses, all new vacuum hoses, water pump was replaced. Purrs like a kitten, runs like a cheetah, and stays cool like Fonzi.

This rare Model 300 Ford is a lowered ride with de-arched reversed eyed leaf springs and blocks in the back, lowering springs in the front. Brand new Radial White Wall Tires on 14" Black Steelies with original Ford hubcaps. The drivers side front flat door glass has a crack (not in drivers view), while the back window and the rest of the glass is crack free. New exhaust and gas tank. I built my own gas tank to match the old one exactly, replaced all gas lines and in have a new sending unit just haven't installed it yet, but included. The Brakes have a new master cylinder and rebuilt wheel cylinders, brakes were bled and adjusted, stops on a dime.

This "One of a Kind" Sedan has many new and upgraded parts, well over 10K invested!

The interior is very comfortable with new carpet, all trim was removed and painted, seats are all original but not in the best shape very small rips in the front and stained I've cleaned them up the best I could and don't look to bad, I have kept everything on the interior original so rear door panels have been cleaned and fixed, front door panels are usable and included they will need new chip board.

Originally sold in San Jose California and used as a Fed Service Car. It has all the holes in dash and room from where the CB radio and police lights were mounted. The holes in the roof were filled though so you can't see them from the outside. I also installed a custom bracket in the back seat for children car seats since there are no seat belts.


This is a California car and has always been to the best of my knowledge, a daily driver with clear California title. Visible Vin and Body Tags. I built this car for someone to just enjoy a nice daily driver or take it to shows it's not perfect it's not a trailer queen by any means but it's a cool car and there are not many around. Drive as is or restore it, must see to appreciate!!! CALL (916)308 zero eight seven 4 or message me for details

Best and worst car brands of 2022 according to Consumer Reports

Thu, Feb 17 2022

It's that time again, Consumer Reports this morning lifting the curtain on its 2022 Annual Car Brand rankings and its 10 Top Picks in the car, crossover, and truck category. Drumroll, please: This year, Subaru climbs two spots to claim the winner's circle, having come third the last two years. Last year, Mazda climbed three spots from 2020 to take the crown. This year, Mazda slipped to second, BMW taking the last spot on the podium, also a one-spot drop from 2021. Six automakers in the top 10 hailed from Japan, which is one more than last year, and five luxury makers occupied the top 10, which is two more than last year. And South Korean representation didn't crack the top this year, after Hyundai managed tenth last year. The seven makes after BMW are: Honda, Lexus, Audi, Porsche, Mini, Toyota, and Infiniti.  The magazine and testing concern says its Brand Report Card "[reveals] which automakers are producing the most well-performing, safe, and reliable vehicles based on CR’s independent testing and member surveys," and that "Brands that rise to the top tend to have the most consistent performance across their model lineups." The domestics also took steps back among the 32 OEMs ranked on the 2022 card. Chrysler and Buick were the domestic carmakers who made last year's top 10 in eighth and ninth, respectively. This year, Buick dropped to eleventh, Chrysler to thirteenth. Dodge went from fourteenth to sixteenth. CR continues to ding Tesla's yoke steerer, the not-exactly-natural handhold responsible for the electric carmaker going from sixteenth last year to twenty-third this year.

Tanner Foust tackles 'Ring in SVT Raptor

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

Here's a math problem: if Tanner Foust has a 24 hours to kill in Germany and one blue Ford Raptor, how long will it take him to decide he wants to lap The Nürburgring? Extra credit if you can get your answer precise to the millisecond.
A very truck-like and slidey lap of the 'Ring is exactly what happened when the Ford-sponsored rallycross driver took time off from set-up duties for his 'day job.' Thankfully no one even thought to worry about posting a time, but you can watch some Raptor skid marks getting laid down between the kerbs in the video below.
