Hi, your looking at a nice 1956 f100 Big window project that was started from the frame up, This isn't a show truck and my intention was to built a very nice hot rod truck and drive it.Unfortunaly, couldnt finish it due to no time . I'll try to best describe it since a lot has been done to it.

Frame: Boxed from radiator crossmember to rear shock crossmember using 3/16 metal. C-notched the rear with tube bars across for better support. Mustang 2 front end with new heavy duty motor mounts with polyurethane inserts, welded and smoothed. New: upper and lower tubular a arms, power rack and pinion, drilled n slotted rotors, 2" dropped spindles, calipers with brake hoses. 8.8 Ford Explorer rearend with 3.73 posi and new rotors. New 69-70 mustang gas tank in bed. Has 2' lowering blocks with new u bolts.Custm made tranny mount from 32' roaster. The front has no coilover or airbag setup since I haven't decided which I wanted but it's holded up using a  round tube pipe, easy to remove once jacked up.

Motor: 396 bored .040 over with forged crankshaft, new pistons, harmonic balancer, water pump, roller rockers, 049 heads, isky camshaft, etc..This motor came out of a 69 camaro and its freshly rebuilt with no miles. Th400 tranny with about 5k on rebuilt. New Griffen aluminum radiator,  

The body is really in nice shape. I got the cab from somebody that already had started on it and i never did anything to it. All 4 cab corners are solid and nice except for the rear passenger side which has few small dents..easy fix. None of them has been replaced, no rust. Floors are solid, rain gutters and top of cab is awesome. Someone had welded the cowl vent shut but not complete and mirrors door holes smoothed. Inner fender brackets is bend due to someone wanted a full tilt frontend but i have new ones to go with it. Has front and rear glass with stainless trim(all there with clips), needs polishing. Front fenders and rear fenders has been media blasted, front fenders almost done but rear fenders need some work but in nice shape. Has new Dan Carpenter bed with ends filled up n stake pockets filled for a nice clean look. Got a nice tailgate with little work to be done. New Dan Carpenter running boards. Hood is in very good shape. I have the metal crossbars for the bed.

New: front and rear bumper, grille with stainless turn signal housing, rear stainless brake lights, stainless tailgate hinges, have stainless latches but not on, front and rear windshield weatherstripping, door weatherstripping. The wheels are new wheel vintiques  with black powdercoated. New Coker whitewalls radial tires..

I'm sure im forgetting something since there's lots of new stuff on this truck. What you see in the pics is what you get. I have a bill of sale with it and the vin tag is on the door. I'm not responsible for this truck once it leaves my property. It is sold as it, where is with no written imperfections. You can come and see this truck in person if you like. Im not afraid to show it. Im a pretty picky person and want only the best for it but just not into show truck or cars. My plan was to paint it black or silver with red interior and drive it for fun.$500.00 deposit due at end of auction and paid in full in 7 days. Cashiers check or cash in person preferred. Once I get money in bank, truck is yours. Please email me with any questions. Good luck bidding..

If you want them, send me your email and i'll send them to you. Thanks again.

Ford Focus Electric and ST recalled over lighting issue

Mon, 12 Aug 2013

Ford is recalling 6,308 units of the 2012 and 2013 Focus Electric and 2013 Focus ST that were fitted with HID headlights because a "wiring incompatibility" could keep the front side marker lights from working. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says the recall should begin in the middle of this month, after which owners can take their cars to dealers to have the wiring assembly repaired free of charge.
You can find more information in the NHTSA bulletin posted below.

Jaguar design boss admits X-Type was a mistake

Thu, 19 Sep 2013

History has a way of repeating itself, especially in the auto industry. When Jaguar was owned by Ford, the British brand attempted to field a competitor for the BMW 3 Series, called the X-Type. Based on the bones of a Ford Mondeo, it aped the styling of Jaguar's flagship model, the XJ, while borrowing liberally from the Ford parts bin. That was 2001.
Now, in 2013, Jaguar is planning a new 3 Series challenger based on the platform previewed by the C-X17 Concept, while Ford is attempting to take the latest Mondeo upmarket. The moves have both brands recognizing where, why, and how the X-Type failed. "It didn't look mature or powerful or anything. It was just a car," Jaguar's current head of advanced design, Julian Thomson, told PistonHeads. Basing the X-Type on a front-drive car while giving it styling that was meant for a rear-driver lead to proportions that "were plainly wrong," Thomson told PH. Ford's European head of quality, Gunnar Herrmann, added that the X-Type was "a fake Jaguar, because every piece I touch is Ford."
For what it's worth, the X-Type's successor in the segment will sport rear-drive, with plenty of input from Ian Callum. Thomson described the new model, which would challenge the 3 Series as having, "Big wheels right to the ends of the car, low bonnet, short overhangs, very low cabins." Sounds good to us.
