This is a beautiful car and other than a few paint chips the car is perfect. I drove it in the July 4th parade and received a plaque for it as peoples choice award and wasn't expecting that. I was just showing it off!! Anyway I will tell you what I know for sure about the car. I didn't build it but I can tell you someone put a ton of money into it. The top is chopped three inches and metal top put on it and a perfect job I have to say. I was a body man for twenty two years before I went to work at the prison then after fourteen years of Correctional Officer my V.A. doctor said I needed to retire for various reasons due to Agent Orange. Anyway I'm getting off course here the body work was done right and the paint is near perfect! I love this car it's just I thought I could afford it but I owe too much money and I'm sure alot of you can relate to that? It has the louvered hood on top, black running boards and fenders. The duel tail pipes are bent so they come out at the base of the back fenders so you don't see them but they sound sweet. I call the colors Harley colors and it has a small Harley sticker in the back window. Certain ways the light hits the orange it looks yellow as you might see in some of the pictures. To me it reminds me of American Graffiti and when I drive it I feel like an old John Milner but I don't drive it like he did. I baby it but now and then you like to kick it down a little. It has a 350 V8 and I believe they told me it had a 350 automatic trans. It has all the gauges, power windows, and even the rumble seat is power. There is only fourteen thousand miles since the rebuild, I bought it of an older lady that had it twelve years and only put two thousand miles on it and it stayed in a climate controlled garage. I've probably put that many on it and only had it less than six months. Anyway the only chips in the paint are like on the spring holders that holds the hood down and a chip where the rumble seat closes other than that the car is a beauty and gets attention everywhere she goes. Oh it does have the aooga horn also and the windshield still slides open at the bottom. Any other questions just ask.

Ford to build next F-150, outgoing model concurrently?
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is rumored to be considering concurrent production for old and new F-150 models in a bid to minimize supply chain disruptions and inventory. Automotive News is reporting that the Blue Oval will build both the current F-150 and its replacement, which we showed you testing just last month, side by side for about half a year before switching over entirely to next-generation production.
As IHS Automotive analyst Mike Jackson told AN, "In order to ramp up, you have to retool...and that means you have to take capacity offline." Building both models alongside could allow Ford to cope with the still strong demand for the current F-150, while populating dealer supplies and working out supply chain kinks for the new model before making a full-time switch.
A loss of capacity when demand is so strong, even for a short period, could spell bad news for Ford, which nets an estimated 90 percent of its global profit on pickups and large SUVs. As AN states, Ford produces the F-150 in both Kansas City, Missouri and Dearborn, Michigan, which allows it to maintain some degree of flexibility in production. The new F-150 is expected to arrive at the 2014 North American International Auto Show as a 2015 model, with a design inspired by the Atlas Concept first shown at the Detroit Auto Show last January.
Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
