Im sure im missing some parts here and there. This was not a “run of the mill” type of build. Everything was professionally installed and tuned. Engine is pushing 500hp on current mild tune which can (but I would not) run on 87 pump gas (91 recommended). The restoration began in August 2000 and was completed by July 2003 so basically an 11 year old truck. Miles on motor and chassis are 14,815 give or a take a mile or two since I do drive it around town on the weekends.

The paint was also done at Street Pro Auto Rod & Truck. It’s a three stage paint job that still looks great. The paint job cost $3,774.09 in total. Have the receipts to prove it. Didn’t take much prep work since it has been a black plate original California Truck its whole life. Yes, I said original Black Plates since the day it was purchased new from the Ford dealer. One thing that’s nice about the paint job was that the flames were added after the fact. Meaning they were painted on top of the blue clear coat. I have not attempted removing but from what I’m told this is possible without damaging the original blue underneath.

The interior is in good shape. Like a mentioned previously it is a 11 year old restoration/hot rod truck so there is some wear. The carpet will need to be replaced in my option. It has seen better days but I have already received a quote to replace the carpet for $200. All original gauges work other then the engine temp and volt meter. As you can see in the pictures they have been upgraded to aftermarket Auto Gage cluster which monitors oil pressure, volts, water temp and trans temp. All gauges work and light up at night when the headlights are turned on. As far as the sound system goes it consists of a Sony radio with a 10 disc cd changer. There are 6x9 speakers in both the driver and passenger doors. Behind the driver and passenger seats there are two MTX 10” subwoofers in separate boxes along with tweeters built in. Sounds amazing...

Moving on to the exterior. The truck is sitting on Cragar wheels with Mickey Thompson 6559 Sportsman PRO 29x18.50 rear tires and Uniroyal 195/65r15 front tires. The rears are extremely wide and add to the aggressive look. The rear end is 9 inch Ford which im not sure of the gearing. All chrome around the entire vehicle looks great. The door handles are showing some pitting and will need to be either replaced or re chromed. The bed of the truck is in awesome shape with a spray in bed liner and dual gas tanks.

I have added up all receipts that I have totalling $19,137.48 which does not include the truck, purchase of the 460 and the interior work which these were all paid with cash. Truck has current registration which just got paid till June 30, 2015. I have the pink slip in hand so please have the cash in yours. If there are any more questions that you might have please feel free to contact me. Good luck and happy bidding.

 Added a video on YouTube of the truck running so you can get a feel for the sound. Truck is running a little rich so you will see some blue smoke when i give it gas. Runs perfect and if you dont mind 8 mpg you can use it as a daily driver. http://youtu.be/i6JI72ZqDQI

Martin Smith retires, Joel Piaskowski in as Ford Europe design chief

Thu, 29 May 2014

The mind behind the look of much of the modern Ford global range is retiring. Martin Smith, Head of Ford Design in Europe, will give up his position on July 1 and will leave the company altogether at the end of the year. He will be replaced by current Strategic Concepts Group leader Joel Piaskowski (pictured above).
Smith has led Ford of Europe design for the past 10 years, and he was partially responsible for the brand's Kinetic Design language with a large grille and swept-back headlights found on the Focus, Fiesta and C-Max, as well as several other vehicles abroad. After stepping down on July 1 until his retirement at the end of 2014, Smith will work on a project to decide the future direction of the company's look with Moray Callum, its vice president of design.
Piaskowski already has some impressive credentials in terms of automotive design as well. He joined Ford in 2010 as director of exterior design and led the teams responsible for the 2015 Ford Mustang and next-generation F-150. He was also previously design director at Ford Asia Pacific. Before working at the Blue Oval, Piaskowski held positions at Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai and General Motors. Scroll down to read the complete announcement of this changing of the guard.

Ford invests $682 million in Edge-producing Canadian facility

Sun, 22 Sep 2013

Ford announced that it's investing $682 million in its Oakville assembly plant in Ontario, Canada, to make it a global manufacturing plant, which the automaker also says secures 2,800 jobs there. Including this injection of cash, Ford has invested over $2 billion in Canada in the last decade, starting with nearly $1 billion for Oakville in 2004, and over $570 million for its Essex Engine Plant in 2010.
The move to make Oakville a global manufacturer of Ford vehicles means, "If consumers suddenly shift their buying habits, we can seamlessly change our production mix without having to idle a plant," says Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas.
Ford says that the latest investment will help it meet North American demand for the Oakville-produced Edge crossover, which is on track this year to beat 2007's US sales record of 130,000 Edges. The Ford Flex and Lincoln MKX and MKT are also manufactured at the plant.

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner

Sat, 24 Aug 2013

For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
