1950 ford f-3.  Clear Colorado title.   This truck came out of Colorado and was used on a boy scout camp in the rockies.  As you can see from the pictures, it has been well used, but not used well.  The flathead 8 is not stuck.  I don't know how long the gas cap has been missing, but it has been stored inside for the last 40 years or so.  This is the long bed, which are becoming hard to find.  I bought it for the cab, but found a slightly better one, so this is back for sale.  The cab is solid, but has 2 dents on the top.  Very manageable if you have the know how.  I would personally try to find replacement fenders, but I suppose these could be fixed, with money or skill.  


I think the wheels may be split rim, but I couldn't tell for sure.  They are firestone 17 1/2" wheels.  If they are indeed split-rims, or "widow makers" please educate yourself on the dangers of the same before you go monkeying around with them.  There is a radio sitting on the seat, but it is not a ford truck radio of this era.  

This is a crusty old workhorse, and will take time, money and skill.  I make no representations that this is an easy restoration, it is not.  Please plan accordingly.

Watch Ken Block's scary Rally America crash from inside the cockpit

Wed, 19 Feb 2014

Ken Block became famous for his series of Gymkhana videos, but he's a real racer in his own right. Block has competed many rounds in the FIA World Rally Championship and also rallied in the 2013 Rally America series. He nearly won that latter title last year - if not for a massive crash in the final event of the season.
Block and his co-driver Alex Gelsomino went into the Lake Superior Performance Rally needing a win to take the championship. However, missing a clump of dirt on the side of the road and one little word in the pace notes was all it took to catapult Block's Fiesta off the road and into a tumbling accident. Block says his initial reaction was anger because the crash came out of nowhere.
For 2014, Block is joining the FIA World Rallycross Championship for at least three rounds. He'll drive a Ford Fiesta for the Hoonigan Racing Division at the Norwegian, French and Turkish events of the 12-round championship. Former Formula One World Champion Jacques Villeneuve will also compete in the series.

Which is more fuel efficient, driving with a pickup's tailgate up or down?

Tue, 26 Aug 2014



Thanks to the smoke wand in the wind tunnel, you can actually see the difference in our video.
Should you drive with your pickup truck's tailgate up or down? It's an age-old controversy that's divided drivers for decades. Traditionalists will swear you should leave the tailgate down. Makes sense, right? It would seem to let the air flow more cleanly over the body and through the bed. But there's also a school of thought that argues trucks are designed to look and operate in a specific manner, and modern design techniques can help channel the airflow properly. So don't mess with all of that: Leave the tailgate up.

The List #0178: Attend Rally School

Jessi and Patrick attend Team O'Neil Rally School in Dalton, NH, to learn how to shred in the snow. Veteran instructor and school founder Tim O'Neil demonstrates left-foot braking, slalom techniques, turning, proper ways to blip the throttle and more in this episode. They get behind the wheel of modern Ford Fiestas with front-wheel drive and a vintage Audi Quattro with all-wheel drive. They catch on quickly, and O'Neil tells Patrick: "Tell your grandchildren you are a rally driver." Watch as our hosts check "attend rally school" off their list. Have an RSS feed?
