Selling this bad ass F450 that we're just now finishing. I didn't build this truck to sell, I built it to be the ultimate tow rig for my race trailer, and I didn't skimp on anything. Only selling it because I'm getting a brand new dually through work.

Truck was completely professionally built and I have all the receipts. Engine and trans was installed by Central Truck and Trailer using Ford/Cummins swap parts. All fab work is very nicely done by Diamond Fabrication. Paint was done by Robert K. Wiring was done by Downriver Motorsports Wiring.  DNR Customs did minor pump mods, a 3200RPM spring, and fixed the potential KDP issue.  

Body and under-carriage is super clean and the truck was undercoated.  Can provide whatever additional photos are requested.  

Tons of new parts. Runs, drives, and works great, just needs very minor finishing touches. I am going to work on it until it is 100% complete, but the price may go up.  The object of the build was to end up with a truck to tow my 15k pound race trailer that was very dependable and would run for a long, long time.  Would be a super dependable hot-shot rig, and will get over 20mpg unloaded.

Truck needs the following:

1.  Fuel sending unit installed in the new tank (gauge is wired, sending unit just needs to be installed).
2.  Cummins/Dodge A/C compressor installed (again, it is wired, just has to be connected to a compressor).
3.  Ford oil pressure sending unit needs to be installed in the cummins engine. (wire is there and ready).

THIS TRUCK RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT AND COULD BE DRIVEN HOME ACROSS COUNTRY AS IT SITS.

Will let it go for $15,500 the way it sits. Losing a *lot* of money at this price. May take trades or partial trades. I dig cars....either fast, old, or both, so partial trades for cars, engines, etc may be considered. Already have too many trucks.  I will consider all reasonable offers.  Email trade offers only please, fryguy302 AT gmail.com

Lots more photos now available, including underneath and interior, please email for details.  Fryguy302 AT gmail.com

Oprah at it again, gives car away on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Sat, 17 Aug 2013

Oprah Winfrey loves giving away cars. Not only has she given Pontiac G6 sedans and Volkswagen Beetle retro-mobiles to everyone in the audience of her past show, but the other night on Jimmy Kimmel Live! she gave another car away to one lucky audience member, while yelling her now-famous line: "You get a car!"
Although the acting of Oprah and Jimmy Kimmel was obviously staged for this giveaway, the reaction from the woman in the audience was genuine shock as she found out that she had just won a new Ford Fusion Energi. Congrats!
Not to take away from what Oprah and Jimmy pulled off, but our cynical sides have to wonder if there isn't more than just a little coincidence that this giveaway took place on the same day that Ford announced a fuel economy reduction for the C-Max hybrid. You be the judge... Scroll down to watch the short clip from the episode.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
