This is the semi-tragic story of a guy in the middle of starting his own business who got this build to about 85% completion, then simply became too busy to finish his once-beloved 1956 F-100 side project. It's now sitting around taking up space, so it's time to say goodbye. Don't let the paint fool you at first glance, this is no driveway junker. This is an 85% potential show truck with a ton of subtle mods and attention to details. It is a perfect project for someone looking for an easy hot rod build or even a quick fix-and-sell vehicle. Minor tuning, a tiny bit of wiring, and light bodywork are just about all this truck needs to be a completely unique custom hot-rod. 

$12K or best offer. No low-ball offers. 

Ford 429 with headers, holley 750 carb, C6 transmission painted red/chrome motif. Top end gaskets replaced preventatively a few years ago, mileage on engine unknown but I've barely driven it. 
Ford 9" rear (recently replaced seals)
Not currently running but can be made to run again very easily. 

Will need to be towed. 
Brakes need to be bled
Small C-notch in rear frame
Rear axle flip kit installed
Air lift helper springs in rear in case you want to carry heavier loads or just jack the back up for a cool hot rod stance.
Fiberglass tilt nose with custom radiator and inner fenderwell supports. hinges with tailgate straps to support it. Right front fender piece of fiberglass is broken. I have 2 pieces here but just never got the chance to fiberglass the 2 pieces together. 
Custom hinges for nose, attched to bumper, so the bumper tilts with the nose.
Underbed aluminum fuel cell installed, rear crossmember moved. Electric in-line fuel pump on switch to act as a secondary feed to the manual pump in case you park on a hill or let the truck sit for a long time. Flip the switch to feed fuel up the fuel lines for a few seconds, then turn it off and crank it right over. 
Front door lip corners rounded and door frame reshaped to match. 
Tons of custom work in the bed. Bed sides built out 2" across stake pockets then reskinned, making the bed wall thicker, and adding more clearance for fatter tires. All corners radiused and rounded for a "chubby" custom look. Subtle, but looks cool and aggressive. Bed is designed so a simple custom tailgate will sit perfectly flush with bed corners. 
Custom roll pan with license plate bucket. 
Chrome grill.
H4 headlights with red LEDs installed for car shows
Front power disc conversion installed
Solid axle front end with upgraded monoleaf lowering springs
Sway-bar kit semi-installed. 
Passenger-side door lock install to match driver's side.
Freshly redone interior- black/red/chrome motif. 
Custom scratch-built door panels
Newer-model bench seat
Seat belt kit semi-installed. Comes with anchors and belts. 
Custom rear storage area behind seats. 
Modernized wiring system installed with blade fuses. 90% of wiring completed to gauges.
Entire cab floor and firewall has noise-deadening insulation installed (like Dyna-mat).
Dash and interior painted a super-glossy black, new gauges, all new chrome everywhere, chrome door handles, chrome steering column. Smoked glass mod for speedometer. Chrome cowl vent handle. Chrome wipers, 
Custom under-dash switch panel. Extends entire length of dash, hides wires and heater unit, houses switches for air ride, interior lights, headlight LEDs and has a few extra spots for gadgets. 
All glass windows except one vent window are in good condition, good rubber seals everywhere.
Chrome door lip covers
Aluminum pedals
Lokar shifter

Only thing the interior really needs is a cheap headliner kit.

Slightly beaten-up Cragar rims with fresh tires. 
Custom-bent brake lines into shape of an oval, with "Ford" script. 

Here's the best part! The truck comes with about 7 parts tubs full of just about everything you'll need to finish the truck. Custom smoothed running boards semi-completed, new aluminum step plates, extra emblems, handles, hardware kit for wooden bed slats, extra speedo bezel, original valve covers, sway bars, ladder bar kit, panhard bar kit, chrome turn signal bezels, U-haul trailer hitch bar, boxes of specialized bolts, screws, gaskets that are unique to the truck, etc, etc. 


It's a "finish-it-yourself" kit!

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013



That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.

Leno chooses his top 10 Mustangs

Sat, 14 Jun 2014

He may be a few months late to the party, but in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Ford Mustang, Jay Leno has delivered a short video in which he runs down which of the Blue Oval's pony cars from the past 50 years are his favorites.
The list is pretty darn similar to our own, with some of the big names from the Mustang's half century making an appearance, while there are three or four cars here that we think you'll be pretty surprised by.
Take a look below for this short video from Jay Leno's Garage.
