1956 Ford F100 Pickup with original Big Back Window. Some custom features: gray smoke tinted glass, no vent wings, one piece glass power windows, oak bed with custom gas tank in the rear frame under the bed, custom designed interior using the original seat in a waterfall pattern black with red piping, dark gray carpet and chrome side carpet keepers. Selling this truck for our son who is in the Air Force, recently married and having a baby. The truck has the ford 302 small block engine, the ford AOD automatic overdrive, brand new exhaust and glass packs front to rear, 22 gallon mustang fuel tank under bed, brand new balanced drive shaft, brand new 1 wire HEI distributor, all new fuel pump, water pump, plugs wires etc etc.  All new upholstery including mid fifties form fit black headliner, new mustang 2 disc brakes in front, 9" Ford drum  rear end , all brake system is brand new, new aluminum 4 core radiator with polished shroud and chrome 3000CFM 16" fan. This is an original big back window truck. Our son took it down to the bare frame and then painted the frame a chassis black paint. He wanted to keep the original front axle. He added a set of reversed eye front lowering springs. He had the entire front tin around the core support powder coated black gloss including the inner fenders.. He installed all new rubber everywhere, new body mounts, motor mounts, tranny mount. He purchased and installed the red oak bed wood and stainless strips and bolts. The back glass was missing when he bought the truck so he purchased that and then installed the 1 piece tinted windows in the doors. He filled in the dash ashtray and radio holes. He never decided what radio system he wanted so none was ever installed. He has the original heater and had it powder coated but never got round to finding a heater core or installing the heater.The chrome grill is from Bob Drake Ford along with almost $2000 worth of other goodies and chrome stuff he bought from Bob Drake. The truck has some work to do to finish it up but overall a really nice rust free example. The fenders and cab had very little body work to do and a friend of mine hammer finished, (peck and filed), what we did find.  To be quite honest, our son wanted to go  into the USAF and he just plain lost interest in all his vehicles.

Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

We 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 upgrade kit takes Focus ST to 275 hp and 296 lb-ft

Mon, Aug 17 2015

If you drive a 2015 Ford Focus ST but are already jealous of the 345-horsepower 2016 Focus RS that's on the horizon, Ford Performance has a new upgrade kit that could be a great compromise. Developed by the Blue Oval experts at Mountune, the MP275 setup takes the hot hatch's output to 275 hp and 296 pound-feet of torque when running on 93-octane fuel. Those are gains of 23 hp and 26 lb-ft, respectively. Providing much of the kit's extra oomph is a recalibrated ECU with more aggressive engine mapping. The company claims that the upgrade also improves throttle response, and it keeps the Focus ST 50-state emissions legal. In addition, customers get a Mountune high-flow intercooler, a new air intake, and all of the necessary hardware to mount the components in the engine bay. For those concerned about reliability, when an authorized Ford Performance technician installs the parts, the Focus maintains the factory warranty. The MP275 kit currently retails for $1,900 on the Ford Performance website. For added protection during harsh weather, customers can also get an end cap for the cone air filter for $15.

Torque • Ford Performance mountune Focus ST kit for 2015 optimizes performance without sacrificing reliability • Sold through Ford Performance Parts, the kit maintains the base car's factory-backed three-year/36,000-mile warranty • Package adds 23 horsepower and 26 lb.-ft. of torque DEARBORN, Mich., Aug. 18, 2015 – Focus ST customers can get more performance out of their vehicle thanks to a new kit from Ford. And on that front, the new Focus ST mountune upgrade kit delivers in spades. The idea of a street-legal, reliable, largely stock 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine making nearly 300 lb.-ft. of torque might have seemed ludicrous 10 years ago, but the components of the MP275 Focus ST performance upgrade not only combine to produce up to 296 lb.-ft. of torque with 93-octane fuel, they are designed for maximum reliability as well. "The 2015 Focus ST MP275 upgrade is the latest addition to Ford Performance's vast Focus and Fiesta performance catalog that gives enthusiasts the components they need to take their car to the next level," said Adam Gair, product manager, Ford Performance.

Ford, GM to collaborate on 9- and 10-speed transmissions

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Back in October, there were reports that General Motors and Ford Motor Company were hard at work co-developing new nine- and ten-speed automatic transmissions, and now both automakers have confirmed this joint operation. While there are no specific vehicles mentioned to receive either transmission, a collaborative press release issued by GM and Ford mention that the transmission will be designed for front- and rear-wheel-drive cars, crossovers, trucks and SUVs.
These aren't the first powertrain components developed jointly between these cross-town rivals, either. The six-speed automatic currently used in vehicles like the Ford Edge, Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Equinox was engineered in a similar fashion. As is the case with this existing transmission, both automakers will assist in the design, development and testing of the new transmissions, but each will build its own units in its own factories. Scroll down for the official press release.
