Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Body is in great shape, but has driver side cab corner rusted out. The window rubber is old and allowing water to run into the cab as happens with older vehicles. Driver window is cracked and needs replaced along with the small back window. The only item not functional is the fuel gauge. Not sure if it is the fuel sensor in the tank, or the gauge itself. All wiring is in tact, but I have not worked the issue any further."

Condition: This truck is very solid. All original. Runs and drives great for being stock. Of course being stock, the top speed is about 50mph in third gear. I recently put new mirrors and hub caps on and headlight beauty rings. Mechanical: Since the motor was rebuilt for unleaded gas, it has about 5 to 6 thousand. I do not have any paperwork to prove that, but that was word of mouth when I bought it. The motor sounds solid, no lifter noise, knocks or any other indication of that not to be true, but it does run very solid. I recently changed the right rear wheel cylinder and master cylinder. The brakes kept locking on pulling. Now they have fresh fluid and work as good as only drum brakes can. I also inspected all 4 wheels to see what shape the brakes are in and they have about 75% life left on the pads. The oil was replaced about 50 miles ago and at the same time had new tires put on. the speedo cable was causing the needle to bounce around, so that is brand new from C & G early ford parts. new o-ring and drive gear were put on at the same time. I installed a new battery and new cables for both negative and positive on with quick release battery terminals. The radiator was leaking so I had a tractor radiator shop braze the missing copper and ensure it is leak tight. At the same time, I put new hoses, thermostat and, water pump on. The steering is tight and drives straight. The linkage for the column shift is tight and shifts nicely. The original blinker parts are missing so an after market blinker was put on at some point in its life. They do sell all the original blinker parts on LMC Truck. Other then that, the truck drives nice for an all original 56 and is solid. I do have the paper work for the parts ordered and the tires and oil change as well. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask and I will update as needed for everyones info. Thank you for taking the time to take a look.

Features: This is a 1956 F-100 small window longbed. It has the stock inline six 223 and 3 speed manual transmission on the column. I tried my best to keep everything stock including the original oil bath air breather. The only items upgraded is that I took off the original generator (still working) and put on a petronix's coil and electronic points with a gm 1 wire alternator.

History:I am currently the fourth owner of the truck. The truck has been California owned its whole life until the last two years. I am military so the truck had to travel with me once I left the state. Currently in Alabama. The rust is very minimal, except for the driver cab corner mentioned. The truck was sitting for about 6 years, but I have been doing much needed maintenance to get it back up and running.

Shipping and Payment: Buyer is responsible for shipping or pickup. I will work with buyers shipper and buyer as much as possible.

2015 Ford Mustang revs it up at Cars & Coffee

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Just because the new 2015 Ford Mustang has officially been released, you didn't think that would be the end of the matter - did you? Of course not. There'll still be plenty of rumors, reports and video footage to bring you. Like this, the first non-official footage of the new pony car in the wild.
Shot by YouTube user SotA1080 and dug up by our friends at CarBuzz, this clip shows the new Mustang posing for photos (alongside other Mustangs) and starting up its engine at the most recent gathering of Cars & Coffee in Irvine, CA. And this being the GT model, it's not packing the V6 or the turbo four, but the red-blooded 5.0-liter V8 that tells us and enthusiasts worldwide that the new Mustang has not lost its way. Scroll on down to watch the footage for yourself.

More evidence GT500-replacement will be named GT350

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

During the recent unveiling of the 2015 Ford Mustang, we saw the car in both V6 and GT form, but we'll have to wait a little bit longer to see the successor to the Shelby GT500. In the meantime, though, it looks like SVTPerformance.com has confirmed reports that this high-performance model will bring the Shelby GT350 name back to Ford.
According to the forum post, a user found the Shelby GT350 name on a Ford promo website listing its 2015 lineup. The Shelby GT350 name was first used on a Mustang back in 1965, and most recently it has been a model created for customers as a post-title purchase by Shelby American. As for that car, Shelby confirmed earlier in the year that its GT350 would be phased out at the end of this month.
The million-dollar question for Mustang and Shelby enthusiasts is when we'll see next factory Shelby GT350. Last we heard it was planned for a debut at the New York Auto Show. We've included our previous spy shots of this hi-po, sixth-gen Mustang, and we've also captured it on spy video showing off its exhaust note.

2014 Roush Stage 3 Mustang

Fri, 26 Jul 2013

Up until now, it's been some years since I managed to get behind the wheel of the hot Mustangs tuned by the folks at Roush Performance. My memories of those vehicles are fond, as the Roush up-fits usually make for better-driving examples of the iconic Ford pony, with better-tuned suspensions, excellent short-shift kits and, of course, huge additions of power. The wake-your-neighbors aural characteristics of these cars have been nothing short of outstanding, too.
But in the years since my last experience with the Roush formula, Ford's own development team has churned out some pretty potent 'Stangs. We currently live in a world where the Blue Oval will sell you a Mustang with 662 horsepower from the factory, and the recently departed Boss 302 remains one of the best Mustangs - and best sports coupes - the Autoblog crew has ever driven.
So with great-driving and hugely powerful Mustangs coming straight off the line at Ford's Flat Rock Assembly Plant, does the Roush package still offer that extra special something to make it stand out? I spent a week with a Stage 3 coupe to find out.
