Here we have a 1932 Ford Custom Pickup. I bought this on ebay over a year ago, it was built in California in the 60's had bobbed fenders, built on rectangular tubed frame, original unchopped top, grill , and shortened steel 32 bed bolted to the back of the cab, removes easily for engine removal if needed. Has Corvair engine, transmission, rear suspension and front suspension, steering column and wheel, Corvair dash, and brake pedal, master cylinder assembly. Done very nicely. Was put into storage in middle 70's and brought out last year. Had it shipped to Illinois, completely rebuilt motor with new mild performance camshaft, all bearings, rings, valve grind, push rods and tubes, new refurbished carburetors ($350.00), installed new alternator and regulator. Has new duel exhaust . Redrilled hubs to Chevy 5 lug wheels, all new wheel cylinders, master cylinder, shoes, brake kits. I believe from engine numbers that the Corvair components are from 1963. Removed bobbed fenders and installed 32 fiberglass fenders and made wood running boards with inlaid Ford step plates. Also has heater ducts into the cab and radio under seat. Don't know if Corvair radio works or not, there is a antenna under the cab floor. Complete paint job, has two spots that are pointed out in the pictures. This truck starts, runs, drives good. It has less than 200 miles since completion. Has good window glass, door windows roll easy and windshield folds out as it should. Also has new fuel tank in the front, and turn lights and H-4 Halogen bulbs in the new headlights. Imagine how this truck would look with chrome reverse wheels and baby moons. Truck originally had snap on naugahyde cover on truck bed lid.
I live in central Illinois, just east of Bloomington, Normal. You can call me with any questions at 309 724-8071 and leave a message if I don't answer I will call you back. This truck is being sold as is where is so please call with any questions before bidding. Selling due to health reasons.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a lean, mean, Z/28-fighting machine [w/video]
Mon, 17 Nov 2014If there's one thing you can count on, it's that the renewed rivalry between the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro will never, ever cease. For every version of Ford's pony car, there's an equally potent Chevrolet. And so with the debut of the Camaro Z/28 earlier this year, Ford has responded with a track-focused 'Stang of its own, resurrecting the Shelby GT350 name.
It looks to be a fine piece of work, this Mustang, with power coming from a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V8 that will produce "more than 500 horsepower" and "above 400" pound-feet of torque. That grunt runs to the rear wheels via a six-speed manual transmission, and a Torsen limited-slip differential keeps everything in line.
But that's hardly the most impressive piece of the GT350 puzzle. Ford has increased the Mustang GT's chassis stiffness for duty here in the Shelby, and the coupe employs MagneRide damping which automatically adjusts based on road conditions and driver inputs. It's a first both for the Blue Oval and for the segment. And speaking of firsts, the GT350 uses a flat-plane crankshaft - something Ford has never included in a production V8 before.
TX officer allegedly lets 140-mph street racer go with a warning [w/poll]
Tue, 26 Aug 2014Being pulled over by the police is one of the most nerve-racking situations that a driver can go through, and it's even worse when you know that the officer has you dead to rights for speeding well over the posted limit. In this video, the driver of a heavily modified Ford Mustang with a claimed 966 horsepower at the rear wheels could have easily lost his ride for doing triple-digit speeds and street racing, but a friendly Texas police officer appears to send him on his way with a simple warning.
What's more, the driver in question wasn't just speeding - his Mustang was the camera car for a bunch of rolling street races in the wee hours of the morning on a Texas highway. The driver was more than willing to mix it up in the action, too. Eventually the cops catch on and pick the 'Stang to pull over, but not before the Ford owner runs a claimed 140 mph. With only audio to go on after the car is pulled over, the police officer seems incredibly nonchalant about catching someone who was so brazenly breaking the law. Incredibly, the patrolman actually tells the driver that he's seen everyone racing tonight but ignored them. With traffic picking up, the cop says that it's time to "cut it out" and go home for the night. As far as this video shows, that was the end of it.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Concentrated ST Formula Proves Just As Potent
I'm not the jealous type... usually. But I will fully admit to being somewhat of a Pouty Polly when I read executive editor Chris Paukert's report after driving the then-new 2013 Ford Focus ST through the impossibly pretty southern French Alps region last June. I feel like a broken record saying this yet again, but hot hatchbacks hold a special place in my heart. And while I'm always giddy to drive any sort of small, turbocharged three- or five-door at home in Detroit, my jealousy was indeed piqued after hearing Paukert tell about the challenging yet breathtaking roads he encountered while driving the flamin' yellow Focus. You know, the sort of roads that, from above, look like carelessly drizzled lines of icing on the frosted Alpen caps.
Several months later, I found myself piloting a Focus ST just west of metro Detroit, pitting it head-to-head against one of Autoblog's perennial favorite cars, the Volkswagen GTI. It was fantastic - enough so that I fully stand behind my statement that in terms of balls-out performance, the Focus ST cannot be beat as far as today's front-wheel-drive hatches are concerned.
