THIS TRUCK HAS BEEN IN THE FAMILY FOR 16 PLUS YEARS. THIS WAS MY FATHER-N-LAWS TRUCK. SO, NOW SOME INFORMATION ON THE TRUCK. IT IS A 1952 MERCURY M1. THESE TRUCKS WERE BUILT IN CANADA. SOME HAVE MADE THERE WAY SOUTH. SO THEY ARE PRETTY RARE. WHEN MY FATHER-N-LAW PURCHASED THE TRUCK, THE GENTLEMAN TOLD HIM THAT HE HAD DROVE IT DOWN FROM CANADA WITH THE STRAIGHT AXLE STILL UNDER THE FRONT. THE TRUCK DROVE HORRIBLE, I DON'T KNOW HOW HE DID IT! SO NOW IT HAS BEEN CLIPPED WITH A 80'S MALIBU FRONT CLIP WITH DISC BRAKES. THIS WAS PROFESSIONALY DONE BY MIKE CHESSIER IN LAWRENCEVILLE, GA. STAINLESS BUMPERS FRONT AND REAR, NEW WIRING HARNESS ON INSIDE, A NEW A\C SETUP WAS INSTALLED AND THE 10 BOLT REAR END WAS REBUILT WITH NEW BEARINGS, 3:55 GEARS AND AN EATON LIMITED SLIP UNIT. THE WOOD IN THE BED WAS REDONE AS WELL AS THE STAINLESS STRIPS. THE INTERIOR IS FROM A FORD RANGER. THE SEAT HAS HAD A CUSTOM FRAME TO MAKE IT FIT AND SECURE. THE MOTOR IS FROM A MARINE DEALER, IT WAS STILL IN THE CRATE WHEN HE GOT IT. SO IT IS A GM 454 (MERCRUISER) WITH FACTORY FUEL INJECTION. THE TRANSMISSION IS A TURBO 350. AS FAR AS THE PAINT GOES, YOU WILL SEE SOME BLIMISHES IN THE PICTURES I HAVE TAKEN.

THANKS AGAIN FOR LOOKING!

Transit Courier completes Ford's new commercial van line, will we get it?

Sat, 13 Apr 2013

This week Ford rolled out the 2014 Transit Courier, the fourth addition to its Transit range. Ford says its the first time for the nameplate in the compact van segment.
"Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers," said Barb Samardzich, vice president of product development for Ford Europe. "With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 percent more than we sell today."
When the Courier goes on sale in the Spring of 2014, it will offer more than 1,400 pounds of payload capacity, multiple mounting points for racks or other framework and a rear cargo area that can carry items 5.3 feet-long. An optional folding passenger seat boosts the cargo length to 8.5 feet.

Ford announces 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Ford has pulled the wraps off its anticipated 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition model, a new variant of the popular street-legal off-road specialist. In a nutshell, the "special" is all cosmetic - there are no mechanical upgrades to the truck and its 6.2-liter V8 (411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque), Torsen limited-slip differential, beadlock-capable wheels and internal triple-bypass FOX Racing Shox dampers all remain untouched.
The SVT Raptor Special Edition, which adds cosmetic enhancements to the existing Luxury Package, will be offered in Ruby Red Metallic and Tuxedo Black Metallic with box-side graphics. The interior upgrades include Brick Red seat bolsters (with black inserts), cloth honeycomb highlights and a console top finish panel.
As of now, Ford has only release a couple pictures of the Special Edition model. But check back later, as we will update the gallery when additional high-res images are released later today, and be sure to peruse the press release below for all the details.

USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.
