1951 F1 Five Star Extra - Thorough And Complete Restoration on 2040-cars
Salem, Oregon, United States
1951 Ford F-1 Five Star Extra Cab package. This 51927 mile scarce Five Star Extra cab package has been given the attention it deserves. It has been treated to a complete ground up no expense spared restoration. It took a year and a half to bring it back better than the day it hit the showroom floor. Attention to detail is what sets this truck apart and you will not be disappointed! This truck sat in heated storage for 20 plus years and it shows in that the body was incredibly rust free- see photos/video. The low mileage was evident when it came apart in the amount of original untouched/original equipment parts. Every bit of this truck was stripped down and brought back up with attention to original factory details. The body was completely stripped and has been restored to its original color as well as Five Star Extra Cab package interior colors. A accent color tweak really sets off this original Meadow Green color as well as setting it apart from the rest. The 239 CID flathead V-8 was completely gone through, fresh valve job and guides and magnafluxed with a clean bill of health. The 3 speed transmission and rear axle have been freshened up and treated to new seals as well as a new clutch. We wanted to make sure this truck lasts well beyond our days and the inside of cab and underside of fenders were treated with bedliner as well as a full powdercoat treatment to the frame. All chrome and stainless has been restored. fresh glass all around. The Five Star Extra Cab package included a good many things a normal Five Star Cab would not have....stainless windshield trim, dual visors, upgraded interior trim, driver and passenger locks, dual horns, dome light with door switches, upgraded heater, full door and kick panels....the list goes on and was ordered complete less the radio. 6 volt electrical system completely gone through and restored with brand new cloth wiring throughout with an addition of turn signals/4 way flashers. Generator refurbished, regulator replaced and lead acid battery replaced with 6v Optima to ensure battery tray stays good as new. The bed is breathtaking...oak hardwood replaced and treated. Original hard to find bumpers restored. The original 16" wheels were powder coated and wrapped BFGoodrich wide white rubber with fresh tubes as well as new trim rings/caps. The list goes on and a collector will truly appreciate the attention to detail as well as the fit and finish of this truck. Restoration completely documented including a video which can be seen here... http://youtu.be/-j8nYXEcfKU . Asking $40k

2015 Ford S-Max adds all-wheel drive, adaptive steering
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The Blue Oval's 'One Ford' mantra has seen rapid commonization of the automaker's products across markets, but North America still has to look from afar at most of the company's Max-branded people movers, including this new S-Max. That's a bit of a shame - we like the space efficiency and above-average driving dynamics of the C-Max models we do get, but seeing this updated seven-seat small minivan makes us want the One Ford initiative to extend even further.
The new model's changes include an updated powertrain range including a 1.5-liter EcoBoost four with 158 horsepower, and a larger, 237-horsepower, 2.0-liter model, along with a pair of revised lower-emissions 2.0-liter diesels. The big news, however, is the advent of available all-wheel drive, something that hasn't been offered since the S-Max first went on sale back in 2006.
On the technology front, the S-Max is the first European model to receive Ford Adaptive Steering, a variable-ratio technology we recently sampled in a prototype Fusion that is expected to go into production on the next-generation Edge. The S-Max also receives a new aluminum-intensive integral link rear suspension, packaged to continue to fit up to 32 different seating combinations. Safety equipment is always a prime concern in kinschleppers like the S-Max, and to that end, this new model receives pre-collision assist technology and LED headlamps.
Top Gear's latest trailer shows off a golden Bugatti Chiron
Thu, Feb 23 2017Top Gear is returning on March 5, and after a lackluster first series with the new hosts, the new group seems determined not to hit a sophomore slump. Chris Evans is gone, and the latest teaser trailer shows the new trio of Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris, and Rory Reid strapped into some pretty fantastic cars, including the Bugatti Chiron and the Ford GT. All of the typical Top Gear segments appear to be present, though the quick cuts don't give us many details. The trailer shows a copious amount of powerslides from an assortment of cars, and even Chris Harris racing around Daytona. Aside from the Bugatti and Ford, cars from Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, Aston Martin, and Alfa Romeo are all present. Co-hosts Eddie Jordan and Sabine Schmitz don't appear at all, so it seems their roles may be downplayed to focus on three guys, as was the case pre-reboot. We have some hope for this re-relaunched show and will be keeping an eye out for more details in the lead-up to the series premiere.
