1954 ford pickup. clear open title in hand.

got this pickup on trade the other day and really dont need it or want to build it. so i figured i try selling on ebay before i start sinking money into it.

plans if not sold....make a rat rod truck out of it. lower it even more. run a radiator and model a headlights only and some kind of flatbed on the rear. make a moonshine truck!

 

the cab does not seem bad. needs three new brake line connections next to the brake booster. the po cut them trying to take cab off. with 3 new lines it should stop. everything else brake wise seems working order. gas cable is unhooked at the carb. gas cable is aftermarket billet.

i hooked a hot battery u to the engine. it fired up easy on first turn. sounds good. po told me the front subframe and engine from older camaro and so is rear end. so im guessing the engine is 305 or maybe 350??? not sure. engine has full length headers, aluminum intake and edelbrock carb. powering steering.

frame is worst thing about the whole truck. someone really couldnt weld but apparently the PO previous owner.... said he drove the truck himself for over 10 years. i was going to go over all the old welds. grind them down flush with frame. reweld if needed. the weld gussets over any welded joints for extra insurance. one picture taken shows the worst weld. actually started cracking.  frame isnt junk but needs attention fast. 

automatic transmission. appears to be a turbo 350 or something along those lines.

engine has exhuast running all the way back. flowmaster duals. sounds great.

rear glass has small crack.

wheels are 20inch. look kinda rustic to me and was going to keep for rat rod look.

other than that not much more to say. floors are pretty solid as can be seen in pictures. seat is just laying in truck. truck is for sale locallly.

can call or text or email ...

Ken Block's 1965 Ford Mustang Hoonicorn RTR and CR Supercars Villain are retro done right

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Gymkhana king Ken Block has had a pretty simple car history in his trademark videos, starting out with Subaru Impreza rally cars before moving into Ford Focus racers for the past four installments. His next video, though, Gymkhana Seven, kind of goes back in time.
Rather than the cutting-edge rally racers of past videos, Block will pilot a heavily modified 1965 Ford Mustang, called the Hoonicorn. How heavily modified is it? Well, Block's Hooligan Racing Division, ASD Motorsports and Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s RTR, spent two years working on it, ditching the standard engine and rear-wheel-drive layout and replacing it with a 410-cubic-inch Roush Yates V8. Yes, that's a NASCAR engine, and it produces 845 horsepower.
A NASCAR-powered Mustang would be news in itself, but it's the other powertrain changes made by Block and Co. that really makes headlines. Power is channeled through a one-off Sadev transmission and all-wheel-drive system, meaning that Block has basically married a NASCAR stock car with a WRC racer. ASD also developed the customized suspension, tubular chassis and roll cage. The wide Mustang body is the work of RTR and Block's own Hoonigan Racing Division, while the 18-inch fifteen52 wheels are shod in Pirelli Trofeo R tires that use a specialized compound exclusive to Block.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014



Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.

eBay Find of the Day: 1987 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe is showroom fresh

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

There's an ultra-rare Ford Thunderbird for sale on eBay, although it's not quite the T-Bird you're probably thinking. This is a 1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe, complete with a five-speed manual transmission and just a shade over 13,000 miles on the clock. The condition is said to be mint, and judging by the interior and exterior pictures, we're inclined to believe the seller. The paint is glossy and the interior looks showroom new, while the underbody is stunningly clean for a 36-year-old car.
Underhood sits a 2.3-liter, intercooled and turbocharged four-cylinder (also found in the Mustang SVO) that was producing 190 horsepower when it left the factory. Inside, the five-speed manual transmission adds to the car's rarity. The vehicle's sole owner has been as immaculate with the paperwork as he has with the rest of the car - it's all there, including brochures and other product material.
The eBay auction ends tomorrow at midnight (9:00 PM if you're on America's west coast). Bidding has reached $10,200, and there's still plenty of time to get in on this future classic. The vehicle is located in Millstone Township, NJ.
