Very rare cab over engine truck, complete body off restoration, frame and original wheels were sand blasted epoxy coated then painted, cab which had no rust was sanded to bare metal before painting, paint is 2011 ford true blue pearl coat, original flat head v8 engine professionally rebuilt, all new glass, new window operators and handles, original seats with original springs recovered, I converted it over to 12 volt and added a fuse box for safety, the bed is a combination of diamond plate and composite (plastic wood)  I used the truck for promotional purposes for my air condition business...(the stickers come off easy) sold the business so it is time to move on...it runs and drives great, geared very low so only driven around town, the speedometer shows 57k miles which I believe to be correct. I tried to keep the truck as original as possible even to the point that I have 3 of the original smug pots that were used for emergencies like flares are used today,however some modifications were made to the truck and the flat bed, I added carpet because I didn't like the bare floors. I did not rebuild the transmission or the rear end as they worked fine..did install new clutch, pressure plate and throw out bearing.The truck is big, beautiful, and gets a lot of looks and if that doesn't do it I installed a locomotive horn and compressor which will turn heads..please ask any questions

Petrolicious pays visit to tuning sensation the Ringbrothers

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

We caught up with a few projects from Ringbrothers at SEMA this year: a classic Ford Mustang body rendered in carbon fiber, and a De Tomaso Pantera-based concept that made us swoon.
It's with good timing then, that our friends at Petrolicious have uploaded their newest, well-crafted mini-documentary to the expansive airwaves of the Internet. Here, we meet the brothers Ring in person - Mike and Jim - and see how they've lent they're passion for craftsmanship to their business, along with their surname. A 1964 Ford Fairlane dubbed "Afterburner" and a 1965 Mustang called "Producer" star in this show.

Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage

Mon, 17 Mar 2014

There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.

Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy

Sun, 31 Aug 2014

Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).
