Up for sale is this rare classic 1961 Ford F-100 pickup. Restored in 2011 by previous owner which included a new interior and lots of $$ invested in frame, chassis and body work. I was told over $20k was invested (mostly steel) but, in all honesty, I thought that was a gross exaggeration and I did not pay anywhere near that for the truck. What really sets this truck apart is the scissor lift dump bed which is activated by hand using crank or hand drill. 


Exterior color is New Holland Red with Limestone trim bumpers and grille. It's a brush and rattle can job that looks great from 20 feet but is what you would expect from close inspection. Still, it's a wonderful driver pickup truck- not a show truck. All tires including spare have good tread and newer original Ford hubcaps for this year.

Three on the tree converted to three on the floor with new trans and clutch in 2011.

Straight Six runs well and just had new plugs with tune-up. New generator, new radiator and numerous other new engine parts. Engine bay is super clean.

Interior is very nice with new bench seat, steering wheel, floor shift and extra gauges. Glass is clear all around and has new seals.

Actual mileage unknown but assumed to be pretty close to the 112,000 miles on the title. **Truck comes with a box of extra parts and a 1961 Ford shop manual and Ford Trim manual.

I bought this truck recently and then a week later found an old Volvo wagon that I had long been searching for. Timing is everything so I'm reluctantly selling and I've fairly priced it to sell fast. Email me for more details or to make arrangements for a test drive prior to purchase.

2015 Ford Mustang leaked in Autoweek

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

We would have to imagine that Ford knew it couldn't keep its 2015 Mustang under wraps for too long, and with only days to go before the pony car's official unveiling, the dam seems to be cracking. SVTPerformance.com member Screamin 40th just posted some images taken of the sixth-gen Mustang prominently featured in and on the cover of the December 9 issue of Autoweek magazine.
These images show that recent renderings we saw weren't too far off. The face is just like what we saw in spy shots a few months back, but the rear of the car features some of its more striking cues. Starting with the pronounced haunches and hidden B-pillars, the rear view of the new Mustang might be its best with the ridged, three-bar taillights, a rear diffuser and the lack of a faux gas cap, which allows the galloping pony to be an even more prominent element against the black trim.
The images also reveal a small portion of the updated interior carrying over retro themes like the deep-dish steering wheel and dual-gauge instrument cluster, but it also adds some modern tech with a big infotainment displays and a clean center stack layout. No official word on powertrain or other specs, but while we can't make out most of the magazine's text, our eyes did catch mentions of an independent rear suspension and a 200-pound weight reduction.

Project Ugly Horse: Part V

The Slippery Slope
I've had a healthy appreciation for cars that stop since one truly unfortunate incident with a runaway 1971 Lincoln Continental.
It's funny how quickly a party can turn from, "We're all having blast" to "What happened to the front of the house, and how many stitches do you think this is going to take?" Standing in a Mustang salvage shop in Kodak, Tennessee, I couldn't help but feel I had strayed into the latter territory with Ugly Horse. There was a supercharged 5.4-liter V8 plucked from a rear-ended Cobra sitting off to my left. The shelves were lined with second-hand Roush and SVT components galore, but I couldn't stop staring at a set of rotors with the approximate diameter of my chest.

Watch this awesome R/C car chase scene made with cardboard and glue

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

It never ceases to amaze us how much video production talent you can find on YouTube, especially when considering movies like Battleship actually exist on the silver screen. It's even better, of course, when cars are involved, which is why we can't stop watching this car chase between a pair of radio controlled Ford Mustangs.
Racing through a detailed set built in the middle of a public street using just "cardboard, hot glue and spray paint," this video is possibly even greater than The Greatest R/C Car Chase Ever that we saw last year. With the exception of a fruit stand and/or a plate-glass window being carried across the street, this has all the makings of a classic cliché chase scene.
Scroll down to watch the scaled-down action ensue as well as the full-scale conclusion.
