My 1952 Ford F1 (F100) Pickup Streetrod is an awesome "Resto Rod" Combining the

Incredible Nostalgic Looks of Yesterday with the while meeting today's performance standards.

IT'S AMAZING.

Let's get into some of the specifics.

The truck is "Motorvated" by a brand new Mr. Goodwrench crate 350 Chevy with

a brand new 350 automatic transmission.....beefed up of course a bit for some

extra performance. The engine has a really nice high performance intake manifold added

and it runs and sound fabulous.

Of course, the cooling system has been updated with a high quality performance radiator to keep things

cool under the hood and in the cab things are kept cool by a really nice Vintage Air/Heat combo unit and it works great, even in intense El Paso Tx. hot temperatures.

Alot of thought and innovation went into the building of this beautiful 1952 Ford F1 Pickup Streetrod.

Check out the shot of the grille below. Notice anything different?? Can you tell me what's different?

Most people can't.

Of course the chrome speaks for itself. Most of the older grilles were painted white or gray.

But look a little harder.....

The stock grille normally only has 3 vertical "teeth"...this one has 5.

Isn't that cool?

And quite expensive to come up with in the process. But this

beautiful truck deserves all the love is received.

Now here's another totally cool but subtle thing to consider.

Look at the cab from the side...notice anything? You may not but don't feel

bad. Most people don't...they just wonder why the truck looks to amazing.

The cab was "chopped" 2" which means the cab is 2" shorter than a stock cab.

And the great part is you get the amazing looks of this truck and still have bunches

of headroom for people who may be over 6' tall.

The interior is exceptionally nice and check out the awesome chrome tilt

steering column. And yes, don't forget the great AC/Heat in the truck. I

retained the original gauges for a retro appearance but it also has some nice

modern gauges to the right of the original ones.

***Please note that the gas gauge

is not reading correctly. It reads about 1/2 of what the actual fuel level is.***

Oh, and did I mention electric windows and a nice stereo?

The truck was also used for State Farm Insurance promotions and advertising.

Check out the interesting License Plate. It's no longer current but will go with

the truck.

I will also entertain trades for a really nice low mileage trike

(no voyager please) or perhaps another antique/custom/streetrod auto

preferably from the 1930's-1940's range. Not interested in any projects please.

Might consider a trade up or down for the right vehicle.

NO FOREIGN BUYERS, however I will work with buyers from Mexico

and Canada.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I CAN BE REACHED AT 915-276-1505 AND

PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE TRUCK IS LOCATED IN EL PASO, TX.

I WILL NOT SHIP BUT WILL COOPERATE WITH THE SHIPPER OF YOUR

CHOICE OR YOU CAN FLY INTO THE EL PASO AIRPORT WHERE I WILL PICK

YOU UP AND YOU CAN DRIVE IT HOME.

AND IT WILL BE A GREAT RIDE.

Which car companies are creating new jobs in America?

Fri, Sep 22 2017

Since January, automakers have announced investments totaling $9.5 billion in U.S. plants, creating or retaining more than 12,000 jobs. Some of those companies have yet to announce just how many jobs will be created given their investments, with the location of many of those jobs still to be determined. Specifically, the 4,000-job Toyota-Mazda joint venture plant still hasn't announced its location, with numerous states jockeying for it. Hyundai has plans to invest $1 billion but has not announced a jobs number yet. And likewise Ford is investing $1.2 billion in Michigan without specifying a number of jobs. Volvo this week announced plans to add a second line to its factory under construction in South Carolina, spending another $500 million and adding 2,500 jobs to the 2,000 it was already trying to fill. Then Thursday, Daimler announced a $1 billion expansion to its facility in Tuscaloosa, Ala., to produce EV batteries and electric SUVs, a move that will add 600 jobs to its hiring this year. Above, we've created a handy pie chart showing you which companies have announced new jobs and how many there will be.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost

Fri, 09 May 2014

I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.

2015 Ford F-150 gets Power Wheels treatment [w/video]

Thu, 26 Jun 2014

With the introduction of its forthcoming 2015 F-150, Ford is breaking with convention by shifting from steel-intensive construction to aluminum. But what if it weren't made of metal altogether? What if it were made of plastic instead, and packed an electric motor instead of an internal-combustion engine?
Feast your eyes, boys and girls, on the new Power Wheels F-150. Built by Fisher-Price and licensed by Ford, the third-generation ride-on toy started development nine months before the full-size version debuted at the Detroit Auto Show this past January, and is hitting sidewalks and driveways across the country this September.
The Power Wheels F-150 carries a sticker price of $349.99, and there's a special version at Toys R Us with LED headlamps (just like the real F-150) for an extra $10.
