1955 Ford F100 satin black with a black and white interior. The truck was used by a company for product promotion/product placement at trade shows in San Francisco/Los Angeles/San Diego/Las Vegas/Phoenix. This is a very solid truck with no rust that we can find. Glass is all original and has cracks all around, the front windshield has 2 small rock chips. The retro stereo and the speakers were removed - so there is NO STEREO or speakers in the truck. The satin black paint is in great condition with some minor fading along with some dings, small paint chips, dents and scratches on the truck. The bed wood is in great condition. The front bumper, grill, radiator cover and a lot of interior parts have been powder coated flat black. The brakes are the original drum brakes and have new pads, wheel cylinders and new shocks. There is no power steering and is all original. The tires are BF Goodrich Radial TA's and appear almost new. The front tires are size 215/65 R15 and the rear tires size are 235/60 R15. The interior is in perfect condition and appears new with very minimal wear with no tears or rips on the seat or on the carpet. The heater works good and it has a new heater core. There is no a/c. It has a Chrysler 440 engine that looks like it was well taken care and runs and sounds great. The engine has lots of new parts on it, new Edelbrock carb, new starter, new radiator fan etc... The Exhaust also appears new and has been H-Piped. We don't know if the engine has been rebuilt or the actual miles on the motor and truck. The automatic transmission is the Chrysler Torqueflite and works as it should with smooth shifting. The gauges are Stewart Warner and they all work good - the water temp gauge is a Sunpro water temp gauge that works and the amperes gauge is not working because it is not hooked up. Overall this F100 is in great condition and someone put a lot of work and money into it. The truck is appraised in the low $20,000's and the reserve is well below that. International bidders are welcomed and all offers will be considered. It's fun to drive, rides down the rode very good and is very fast. Any question's just email. |

Introducing the 1965 Ford Mustang
Sat, 24 Aug 2013Put on your space suits and diving bell helmets, for it's time to step into a time capsule. The 50th anniversary of a historic model, like, say, the Porsche 911 this year, is certain to bring flights of nostalgia. This historical trip with the 1965 Mustang, though - preliminary hype for next year's anniversary, we know - is a swell museum exhibit for anyone who enjoys bygone days of the automobile.
Lee Iaccoca gave a speech to motoring journalists on April 1, 1964 at the New York World's Fair to introduce a sporty car for younger drivers. His opening line: "Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to one of the proudest moments of our lives." The company was so excited by what it had made that the Mustang was Ford's first "International Press Introduction," being introduced to some 2,000 journos around the world on the same day in the US and 11 European cities. Even through its difficult points, no one at the time could have known how well the Mustang would acquit that pride.
After the intro, the press drove Mustangs 750 miles from New York to Dearborn, MI, reading press kits that touted features like the "vertical, three-sectional taillights/turn signals," "170" six-cylinder engine with 101 horsepower and the available Cruise-O-Matic transmission.
Consumer Reports: Ford Fusion fun but flawed; Mitsubishi i-MiEV slow, chintzy [w/videos]
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Waiting for a Ford compliment from Consumer Reports these days is like waiting for a low-cost new product from Apple. So we weren't really expecting a glowing review of the 2013 Ford Fusion when CR got its hands on the car. The institute's crew bought three different versions of the Fusion (Hybrid, 1.6-liter EcoBoost and a Titanium with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost) to put through its barrage of tests, and while we aren't too surprised by some of the findings, they're still interesting nonetheless.
CR praises the Fusion for its "eye-catching" design and says that the sportier Titanium trim level is the best-handling midsize sedan they've ever tested, but that's about where the good news ends for Ford. The Fusion Hybrid also posted the best-ever fuel economy CR has recorded in a midsize sedan, but the only problem is that their number was 39 miles per gallon combined - far less than Ford's 47 mpg rating for city, highway and combined. As expected, CR also dinged the Fusion for its MyFord Touch, but some of the other gripes about the car include a cramped cabin and poor fit and finish.
Other Ford products tested this time around include the Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid. Like the Fusion, CR's observed fuel economy of 37 mpg for the C-Max fell well short of Ford's advertised 47-mpg rating, and both cars were criticized for the use of MyFord Touch. CR notes that the Focus Electric's interior is also cramped, with the battery pack taking up a lot of cargo space.
Ford open to diesel, hybrid or electric Mustang? [w/poll]
Sun, 08 Dec 2013The Ford Mustang may not be the first vehicle that comes to mind when you think of environmentally-friendly forms of transportation. The arrival of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the new Mustang could do a lot to combat that perception, but the EcoBoost engine may just be the tip of the iceberg in that regard.
Speaking with Ford powertrain boss Bob Fascetti at the reveal of the new Mustang in Australia, GoAuto reports that the Blue Oval automaker is considering offering its latest pony car with a diesel, hybrid or even electric powertrain in the future.
"We're not looking at diesel at the moment, but given where we need to go with fuel consumption we are looking at all our options," said Fascetti. Other options could include a nine- or ten-speed automatic transmission to replace the current six-speed unit in order to help improve fuel economy and emissions for the Mustang, although figures for the current lineup have yet to be revealed.
