Hey there, you’re looking at my 1947 Ford pickup truck. This is a California rust free example VERY RARE!! I found this truck in Utah a couple years ago and that gentleman purchased it out of California and had owned it several years. Looks to be a professional build based on the quality of the way it’s put together. Every nut and bolt has been touched and it has had a complete frame up build. Looks to have been originally completed in 1999 based on the car show stickers in the cab above the passenger windshield. Condition is still very good driver quality and the truck has been driven 10,600 miles since its build. It is NOT PERFECT and does show some wear so be aware of that. It has been well taken care of and drives so nice!!! The body, bed and tailgate are all original!! No glass or aftermarket sheet metal on this one!! Now the goodies … powered by a 289 Ford; motor is tight, no smoke and awesome oil pressure.  The truck is backed up with a Hughes performance C-4 automatic transmission and a 9in Ford rear. Its geared for cruising, perhaps a 300 ratio? Cruises the highway speeds without any problems!! Built old school with a set of try Y headers, Smitty glass packs, Coker Classics and a retro tach to boot. Mustang Two front end with power disk brakes and power steering. Original frame, boxed in front. Just a nice old truck that gets thumbs up everywhere you go. It has a stainless fuel cell in back of bed and it does have lap belts and a charging jack under the seat for your phone, GPS etc. If you have any questions please feel free to email me or call, I can send any additional pics at your request. It is for sale locally so I can end this auction if I choose. Happy bidding, you will not be disappointed.  My cell is 804-690-6364; ask for Michael, or by email, corvet4us@comcast.net. Winning bidder will be responsible for $1,000.00 deposit and shipping to be arranged by purchaser.  Funds to be sent via wire transfer, certified cashier’s check or cash. Vehicle will not be released until funds are cleared.

Watch how Ford torture-tested the 2015 F-150

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

The Ford F-150 has been the best-selling truck in the United States for the past 37 years, and the best-selling vehicle outright for the past 32. That's quite a legacy, and thus, it's no surprise that Ford worked super-duper-extra hard on creating the all-new, aluminum-bodied 2015 F-150 that debuted at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
During an event at the company's headquarters in Dearborn, MI this week, we were able to see all of the ways that Ford endurance tests, not just the new F-150, but all of its vehicles. From examining things like light exposure to interior materials and paint finishes, to making sure that corrosion absolutely does not happen when steel components come in contact with aluminum panels in the new truck. The goal: ensure that the new F-150 is nothing short of "Built Ford Tough."
But that's only a small part of the story. Of course, the new F-150 has to be able to withstand whatever a pickup buyer might throw at it - and truck buyers arguably demand the most from their vehicles. So in an effort to convey just what the new F-150 had to go through before being given the final go-ahead, Ford has released a series of videos, showing how its new halo truck was indeed torture tested.

Ford predicts it will finish 2013 as top-selling US brand

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

Ford is ready to call the ball on its 2013 sales totals, predicting a first-place finish for units sold in the US for a single brand. The company anticipates selling more than 2.4 million vehicles when all vehicle sales over the last 12 months have been tallied, repeating the victory it trumpeted over Toyota last year.
According to Ford's accounting, it sold 329,677 more vehicles than did Toyota in 2012. This year, the Blue Oval expects that margin to grow; through the end of November, Ford says it has outsold Toyota by 396,041 units.
Retail sales of Ford products are projected to exceed 1.7 million units for 2013 (the best retail result in 6 years for the company), with passenger cars accounting for 600k of that total. The redesigned Fusion is expected to crest the 290k mark, and the Fiesta is said to be ready to hit a model-record of 70k-plus. Meanwhile, utility vehicles and trucks are still paying a lot of bills in Dearborn, with the new Escape racking up an expected 300k sales and F-Series trucks chugging along at 688,810 units sold thru November.

Formula Drift kicks off 11th season on Streets of Long Beach

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The 2014 Formula Drift series kicked off last weekend in Long Beach, and saw Chris Forsberg, who you'll recall went mad and drifted around a warehouse in an Infiniti M, take the title behind the wheel of his Hankook Tire Nissan 370Z (shown above).
Forsberg really ran away with the first round of competition, outscoring his closest opponent, second-place finisher Kenneth Moen and his Bridges Racing Nissan 240SX, by 20 points. Third place was 2013 championship winner Michael Essa and his Yokohama BMW M3, 30.5 points behind Forsberg.
In the manufacturers' title, Nissan took an early lead with 122 points, which isn't a huge surprise considering five of the top ten drifters were piloting either a Z or a product of the brand's S platform. Ford, which had two drivers (Justin Pawlak and Vaughn Gittin, Jr.) in the top ten, took home second place, while BMW is currently third in the manufacturers' standings.
