1954 Ford F-100 Custom
You are bidding on a 1954 F-100 that looks and feels like the great 50's era of cars and trucks but drive like something a bit more modern. The truck went through an extensive restoration about a year ago. It has a 4.6 L fuel injected V8, automatic with overdrive transmission, 4 wheel power disc brakes, cruise control, tilt wheel steering column, and yes even power seats. All of the modern components were donated from a '97 Mercury Marquis (Ford crown vic) with around 60K on it. The body is all steel and is nearly all new including the hood fenders, bed, roll pan, and running boards. The glass is all new, one piece windows were installed in the doors, all new chrome and stainless, new flowmaster custom exhuast, wheels and tires, and all rubber components were replaced. I have put a few hundred miles on it since complete and used it in my sisters recent wedding. It starts right up, no waiting on your carb to get good and warm to take off in this beast. The ride is very nice in comparison to some of the stock restoration I have done. The rear end is still a bit stiff but you cant take all of the truck out of it. The front end handles well with its independent front suspension and rack and pinion steering. And yes it will stop unlike most of your old hope you get stopped drum brakes, you now have 4 wheel power disc brakes. You will be sure to get plenty of looks in this pickup, and if the custom paint scheme doesnt do it the growl as you pass everyone will definetley turn all of their attention to you. Please contact me with questions or requests for additional pictures. 765-376-3486 The truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time for any reason. Thanks and happy bidding!!!

Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile
Wed, 27 Mar 2013We said they'd probably be out with an official video, we did not lie. The Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT sat at one end of the runway at the Texas Mile sitting still. At the other end of the runway it had broken its own speed record, the twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8 pushing the aerodynamic supercar up to 267.6 miles per hour, a 4.3-mph improvement over the old mark.
There's not much in the video you haven't already seen, this just makes it official. That said, who doesn't want to see a twin-turbo Ford GT set an incredible speed record? You can watch it below.
Ford 1.0L EcoBoost 3-Cylinder: Autoblog Technology of the Year award finalist
Wed, 19 Nov 2014As the old saying goes, "There's no replacement for displacement." But these days, many automakers are launching powerful, downsized engines that offer similar or better power output than their predecessors, all while offering improvements in fuel economy and emissions. These days, we're seeing automakers replacing eight-cylinder engines with turbocharged sixes, and the naturally aspirated six-cylinder motors are being phased out in favor of potent turbo fours. But Ford has gone even smaller, offering a three-cylinder, turbocharged engine with one single liter of displacement.
Sure, three-cylinder engines aren't anything new - they've been offered around the globe for ages. But Ford's EcoBoost 1.0L powerplant is perhaps the best application the Autoblog team has tested. Gone are the triple-cylinder complaints of yore - this engine doesn't sound anemic or buzzy, and there's healthy power output on tap. In fact, compared to the 1.6-liter inline-four that Ford also offers in the Fiesta, the 1.0-liter is more powerful, while boasting an impressive 45 miles per gallon on the highway.
This engine has already received numerous accolades, including winning the International Engine of the Year award in 2012, 2013 and 2014. The 1.0L EcoBoost will be available in the refreshed 2015 Ford Focus here in the US.
Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).
