1950 F1 California truck that I received from a family member who bought it from the gentleman who restored it. This is a very nice truck that has over 20k invested in it and runs and drives very nice. It could use some finishing touches to make it perfect (see below). I've driven it less than 10 miles and have no need for it.

This is an honest description based on my careful observation but inspections are welcome and encouraged.

Body is completely rust free and laser straight with deep red paint. Only a few minor nicks and a narrow dent on roof (out of view) and a small crack in paint by wheel (see pick). Paint is excellent otherwise. Truck has always been covered and garaged.

Stainless is excellent and chrome is very nice to good. The front hood badges could use re-chroming to be perfect.

Engine is a small block Ford/2V. I was told that it was rebuilt and it runs as such, doesn't smoke. I believe it's a 302. C4 transmission that shift smoothly and positively. This truck breaks the tires loose easily.

New dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers.

New professionally installed Mustang II suspension with power steering, disc front brakes and new steering column with tilt.

Truck stops safely but requires some effort. I'm including a $500 power booster unit (brand new) that is specifically designed for bolt-in application of this truck when upgraded with Mustang II front end.

Electrical works (lights/wipers etc.). Turn signals need to be connected to new steering column, but older bolt on signal unit works. Optima battery.

Glass is excellent with no cracks or delamination. Some window rubber is showing age and could be replaced, although it's weather tight.

Interior is clean and comfortable without tears or stains; velour all around. Heater and radio work.

Wheels and tires are brand new.

Bed is diamond plate with nice fitting cover

Tail lights work fine and I'm including new set of 34 Ford lights that look better in my opinion.

This is a very nice truck that gets compliments. The drivetrain/supsension/brakes were all professionally installed (excellent welding on Mustang II install for example) and it runs and drives very nice. I'm only selling the truck because I don't have room for and use for it.

I don't like surprises (for you or me) so if you have questions please ask and if you'd like I'm happy to accommodate. The truck is located in ZIP 93465 which is and easy 3.5 hour drive from the Port of LA or Oakland for International buyers. I'll work with shipping companies but shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I require full payment within 7 days and there is no warranty with this truck.

Thanks for looking and please let me know if you have any questions!

Ladies Love It: Ford Fiesta wins Womens World Car of the Year

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.

Ford cranks up '32 Ford body production

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

If you're going to build your own hot rod, you'll want to start with a '32 Ford 5-Window Coupe. Favored by American servicemen returning from World War II, the '32 Ford remains the very icon of the hot rod to this day. The trouble is there were only so many of them made in the first place, and finding one today can be a challenge. That's where reproduction models come in.
The aftermarket is replete with companies that will sell you a fiberglass body in the form of a '32 Ford coupe, but quality can be hit or miss. So to help meet demand among hot rod builders and enthusiasts, Ford has teamed up with United Pacific Industries to offer officially licensed body shells.
Announced at the SEMA show in November, the '32 Ford 5-Window Coupe body is made from stamped steel according to original specifications from original machinery where possible or reproduced machinery built to the same original specifications where necessary. The bodies are ready to accept vintage powertrains or crate motors from the Ford Racing catalog, and join the 9,000 other parts offered in the Ford Component Sales catalog - including similar reproduction bodies available for the 1965-70 Mustang and 1940 Ford Coupe. From there, the proverbial sky's the limit.

2015 Ford Mustang invades SEMA, led by King Cobra

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

Ford showcased more than a dozen customized 2015 Mustangs at its sprawling 20,000-square foot display this week at the Las Vegas Convention Center as the iconic pony car's 50th anniversary celebration continued at the SEMA Show.
While Mustangs are always a hot commodity at SEMA, the new generation brought increased attention from the aftermarket, as builders like Galpin Auto Sports, Richard Petty's Garage and Vaughn Gittin Jr. offered their takes on the new 'Stang.
The extensive display included a range of Mustangs from mild to wild, with everything from a 600-plus horsepower King Cobra pictured at the top, to paint-and-wheel packages. The new regal Cobra, which we spied early in our SEMA adventure this year, may not be the replacement for the Cobra Jet as we speculated, but it does seem to point the way forward for the next iteration of a supreme Ford dragster. Fat drag slicks out back make it's reason for being abundantly clear, and for tells us that modded car is good for a 10.97-second quarter-mile run.
