Here we have a 1932 Ford Custom Pickup. I bought this on ebay over a year ago, it was built in California in the 60's had bobbed fenders, built on rectangular tubed frame, original unchopped top, grill , and shortened steel 32 bed bolted to the back of the cab, removes easily for engine removal if needed. Has Corvair engine, transmission, rear suspension and front suspension, steering column and wheel, Corvair dash, and brake pedal, master cylinder assembly. Done very nicely. Was put into storage in middle 70's and brought out last year. Had it shipped to Illinois, completely rebuilt motor with new mild performance camshaft, all bearings, rings, valve grind, push rods and tubes, new refurbished carburetors ($350.00), installed new alternator and regulator. Has new duel exhaust . Redrilled hubs to Chevy 5 lug wheels, all new wheel cylinders, master cylinder, shoes, brake kits. I believe from engine numbers that the Corvair components are from 1963. Removed bobbed fenders and installed 32 fiberglass fenders and made wood running boards with inlaid Ford step plates. Also has heater ducts into the cab and radio under seat. Don't know if Corvair radio works or not, there is a antenna under the cab floor. Complete paint job, has two spots that are pointed out in the pictures. This truck starts, runs, drives good. It has less than 200 miles since completion. Has good window glass, door windows roll easy and windshield folds out as it should. Also has new fuel tank in the front, and turn lights and H-4 Halogen bulbs in the new headlights. Imagine how this truck would look with chrome reverse wheels and baby moons. Truck originally had snap on naugahyde cover on truck bed lid.
I live in central Illinois, just east of Bloomington, Normal. You can call me with any questions at 309 724-8071 and leave a message if I don't answer I will call you back. This truck is being sold as is where is so please call with any questions before bidding. Selling due to health reasons.

Ford cleans up painting process with cameras
Thu, 22 Aug 2013Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.
Leno drives Henry Ford II's all-original '52 Ferrari 212 Barchetta
Tue, 17 Jun 2014The story of the relationship between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari is absolutely fascinating. The two great men of the auto industry had what appeared to be a burgeoning friendship until Ferrari pulled out of a deal to sell his company to Ford in the '60s. The latest car featured in Jay Leno's Garage is a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta that tells the very beginnings of that story.
This Prancing Horse was a gift to Ford from Enzo when the two companies were first thinking about merging, according to the curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Ferrari really wanted to show off its best so instead of the 212's normal V12, this car was fitted with the larger 2.7-liter unit from a Ferrari 225. The car has been almost unaltered since then. It still wears its original paint, and it's tires date back to 1954.
The great thing about the Petersen is that unlike a lot of auto museums, the people there actually drive the cars and keep them in working order. Once on the road with Leno behind the wheel, this Ferrari really sings. Unfortunately, he can't open it up too much because the 60-year-old tires really hold things back. Scroll down to watch this amazing piece of automotive history and learn it's possible effect on the styling of the original Ford Thunderbird.
Jay Leno and Lee Iacocca reflect on 50 years of Ford Mustang
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Lee Iacocca oversaw the birth of the Ford Mustang back in the 1960s, rocketing the new pony car nameplate into million-unit sales territory in its initial go-round and cementing its place in the history books. Thus, we were immediately drawn to this latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage, in which the funnyman hosts Iacocca for a look at the origins of Ford's most iconic sports car. The legendary auto exec is looking notably more frail than when we last saw him, but if we're being asked around as a video guest when we're 89 years old, we'll consider that evidence of a life well lived.
Serial No. 0001 is on hand for the occasion for Jay's romp through history, as is the historic Mustang 1 showcar from 1962. Of course, the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang GT (in prototype form) makes an appearance at the end of the episode with chief engineer Dave Pericak, as well. Get some, below.
