Location:

Oak Forest, Illinois, United States

Oak Forest, Illinois, United States

1963 E100 Econoline Pickup:

  • Very solid, great running truck
  • Currently licensed and insured and is driven to cruise nights and car shows on a daily basis
  • It is painted in an amateur old school enamel satin white, complete with very tasteful TURQUOISE pinstriping and wide white portawalls with freshly sandblasted and painted TURQUOISE wheels with chrome lug nuts.
  • The original drivetrain was recently replaced with a 200 c.i. mustang six with a synchronized 3 on the tree.
  • The speedometer and odometer are slightly out of calibration because of the trans swap but it is reading 46,945 which is the original mileage.
  • The truck is running off a 12 gallon stainless fuel cell so there is no working gas gauge.
  • All turn signals, headlights, tail lights, brake lights, and parking lights work as they should.
  • The temp gauge functions and the ampmeter and oil pressure gauge are working idiot lights.
  • The truck runs and drives incredibly well and gets somewhere upwards of 20 mpg.
  • There is very little bondo in the  truck and this is mostly over some homemade sheet metal patches done many years ago.
  • I am no body man so it will still need some sanding and filling to make these areas better.
  • The wipers work and the heater fan blows and there is a heater core in it but there are no hoses hooked up to it.
  • The horn is currently not working nor are the dash lights.
  • The truck also features the original manual choke which works as it should.
  • The original gas tank is still in place but the condition is unknown.
  • Also the undercarriage has been all blasted and been painted rustoleum satin black.
  • There is one small hole in the passenger side floor and is an easy fix.
  • Also available are a shortened drive shaft & cross member with motor mounts for a V-8 conversion and a set of 14 in. Craiger SS with unilug pattern w/ tires.
  • I also have brand new, in the box, rubber vent window seals which I have not installed.
  • PLEASE CALL BEFORE BIDDING.  I CAN TALK FOR HOURS ABOUT THIS TRUCK.
  • PLEASE NOTE:  The pinstriping and wheels appear to be blue but are TURQUOISE.

Ken Block ain't got a care about ruining his wheels

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

During a drifting session at Irwindale Speedway in California, Ken Block made a boo-boo that would send a number of drivers immediately back to the infield. But there's an answer to "What do you do when you bash the wall while drifting and your wheel explodes?" and there's completely different answer when the question begins with the phrase, "When you're Ken Block..."
Instead of us telling you how Block handled the calamity in his Ford Fiesta competition car, you can watch it happen in the video below. You can probably also guess what it is - but it's more fun to watch.

Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang appears at EAA Oshkosh

Sat, 26 Jul 2014

Ford is back at the Experimental Aircraft Association AirVenture air show in Oshkosh, WI, on July 31 auctioning off its seventh Mustang for charity, and this is one seriously mean looking 2015 'Stang. All of the money from the sale goes to give free introductory flights to young people to get them interested in aviation.
We recently saw this latest EAA Mustang as a sketch. However, it looks a whole lot more menacing in person. Dubbed the Ford F-35 Lightning II Edition Mustang, it takes liberal inspiration from Lockheed Martin's latest fighter jet, and the customization makes the pony car look ready for a role in Top Gun.
On the outside, the special Mustang wears titanium-color paint that's offset by a black and yellow stripe running from hood to rear. Out back things get really wild with a mix of bright yellow and black that flows diagonally all the way to the rear spoiler. The design is based on the livery of early production F-35s. If the rousing color scheme isn't enough to get you interested, the car also gets a carbon fiber front splitter and rear diffuser, lowered suspension and a set of custom 21-inch wheels with yellow brake calipers.

Forza Horizon announces January Recaro Car Pack with LFA N"urburgring Edition

Wed, 26 Dec 2012

Another month, another car pack for Forza Horizon. This time it's the Recaro Car Pack featuring a motley gang of cars and trucks: the 1983 GMC Vandura G-1500, 1995 Ford Mustang Cobra R, 2012 Cadillac Escalade ESV, 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR, 2012 Lexus LFA Nürburgring Edition and 2012 Lotus Exige S.
It'll be up for download on Xbox Live on Tuesday, Jan. 1, 2013 for 400 MS Points. As usual, if you have the Forza Horizon Season Pass you can get them all free, and Season Pass holders will also get a bonus car that's not pictured: the 2009 Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster.
The Pagani is everything opposite to that Vandura, but while you might not ever win anything with the van, you can always use the back of it as a place to give out free hugs. Check out the video and press release below for more details.
