SELLING A COOL OLD TRUCK, I FOUND IT IN A GARAGE ABOUT A YEAR AGO. IT IS AN OLD SCHOOL HOT ROD. IT IS A 1950 FORD F1. BUT YEARS AGO SOME ONE INSTALLED A 57 STUDEBAKER 289 V-8. IT IS FAST I DID NOT KNOW STUDES MOVED LIKE THAT. HERE IS WHAT I DID TO THE TRUCK SINCE I HAVE HAD IT. NEW FIBERGLASS FRONT FENDERS, UPPERS AND LOWERS. ALL NEW BRAKES. NEW MASTER CYL, NEW WHEEL CYL, NEW SHOES, AND LINES. IT STOPS JUST FINE. NEW FEUL PUMP. ( I WAS SURPRISED ,NAPA STILL CARRYS PARTS FOR A STUDEBAKER). NEW WINDSHEILD, AND NEW BACK GLASS. HEADLIGHTS WORK BOTH HIGH AND LOW BEAMS, HAS TAIL LIGHTS AND BRAKE LIGHTS. THE ONLY THING STOPPING THIS FROM BEING A DAILY DRIVER IS THAT THE GAS TANK NEEDS CLEANED OUT A LITTLE BETTER. IT TENDS TO PLUG UP THE FILTER ABOUT EVERY 10 MILES. THE FLOOR OF THE BED WAS GONE, I JUST HAVE A SHEET OF PLY WOOD IN THERE. THERE ARE A FEW SPOTS IN THE SIDES OF THE BED AND ON THE REAR FENDERS, WHERE I WELDED IN A PATCH OR TWO. LOOKS OK FOR A DAILY DRIVER OR A PARTS RUNNER. BUT NOT SHOW QUALITY. THE BOTTOM OF THE DOORS ARE GONE. THEY WILL NEED PATCHED. I TOOK A CLOSE UP OF THEM. THE CAB CORNERS WERE SOLID, AS WELL AS THE CAB FLOOR. NOT PERFECT BUT SOLID. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL SEAT BUT NEEDS RECOVERED. GUAGES ARE THERE BUT NOT SURE IF THEY WORK. I UNHOOKED THE WIRE THAT FEEDS THEM SO I WOULD NOT BURN THEM UP, WHEN I SWITCHED THE LIGHS AND IGINITION OVER TO 12 VOLTS. DOOR GLASS ON DRIVERA SIDE IS CRACKED (20 BUCKS) AT A GLASS SHOP. THE WINDSHEILD ONLY WAS $50 THE WING WINDOWS ARE CRACKED AS WELL. FRAME IS STILL SOLID MOTOR RUNS , TRANS IS GOOD, REAR END IS GOOD. IF YOU LIVED CLOSE 10 MILES OR LESS YOU COULD DRIVE IT HOME. NEEDS AN EXHAUST. HAS MANIFOLDS AND ABOUT 10" OF PIPE ON EACH SIDE. RUNNING BOARDS ARE HAVE SOME HOLES,BUT ARE STILL STRONG ENOUGH TO STAND ON. HAS A SMALL WATER LEAK AT THE WATER PUMP AND A SMALL OIL LEAK. NOT TO SURE IF THE BATT IS CHARGING. THE VENT ON THE COWL BEHIND THE HOOD IS RUST AROUND THE EDGES. TIRES ARE OLD AND HARD. THEY ARE 15". THERE IS AN OLD PATCH MADE BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER ON THE PASS SIDE REAR FENDER, DOWN BY THE RUNNING BOARD. I TOOK A CLOSE UP OF THIS, SINCE IT WAS THERE I LEFT IT ALONE. FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTION, OR COME LOOK AT IT.

Ford Mustang was almost 'Imported from Detroit'

Wed, Oct 7 2015

The Ford Mustang achieved iconic status nearly the moment the sheet came off at the 1964 World's Fair. And if Henry Ford II wasn't getting divorced around that time, the pony car might have been called the Torino and been marketed as 'Imported from Detroit,' according to Automotive News. We'll explain. During research for the new book Once in a Great City: A Detroit Story, author David Maraniss found an interesting connection between Chrysler's (now FCA US) slogan and the Ford Mustang. Before the pony car even had a name, the Blue Oval's advertising agency had the idea to market it as a "brand new import ... from Detroit," according to Automotive News. The vehicle would be sold as "inspired by Italy's great road cars, but straight from Detroit." The name Torino was suggested, as well. However, the real world interfered in making the Mustang Detroit's first import. According to the author, Henry Ford II was getting a divorce, and his future wife was Italian. It was therefore thought to be a bad idea to sell the future pony car as being from Italy. Things clearly changed by the time the Torino hit the streets years later. Related Video:

Autoblog Minute: Ford Ranger, UK Mustang, Hyundai Hybrid

Fri, Aug 28 2015

Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over the Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of the Toyota Prius and a new Hyundai. Autoblog's senior editor Greg Migliore reports on the weekly recap edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Ford may bring the Ranger back to the US, the UK goes nuts over Mustang, and the battle of hybrids heats up with spy shots of Prius and a new Hyundai. I'm Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute weekly recap. 2011 was the last time we saw Ford's midsize pickup in the US but according to a report from the Detroit News we could see production of the Ranger at the [00:00:30] Dearborn automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant as early as 2018. Ranger could compete with the Chevy Colorado and perhaps revive the compact and midsize pickup market for Ford, but the future of Ranger in the US depends a lot on Ford's ongoing negotiations with the UAW. About 2,000 orders for the 2015 Mustang were placed in the UK, tying up production of the pony car until July 2016. According to details in a press release from Ford UK, [00:01:00] it looks like Brits are a lot like their American cousins, opting for the 5.0 liter V8, with Race Red as the popular color of choice. Photos of the 2016 Toyota Prius leaked generating a lot of buzz over the styling. This fourth generation Prius will have some new competition as spy shots of a new Hyundai also surfaced this week. The car is said to be a hybrid and a bonafide "Prius fighter." Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to check out my full recap this Saturday, [00:01:30] including the latest in FCA rumors for 2016. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.

Americans will get a four-cylinder Ford Mustang after all? [w/poll]

Sat, 09 Mar 2013

Ask and you shall receive. Remember that previous report suggesting that the 2015 Ford Mustang getting a four-cylinder EcoBoost engine, and that it would be sold in Europe only and not the United States? Well, according to Road & Track, the rumor is only partially true - The Mustang will get the engine, but it is indeed coming to America.
Additionally, according to RT, the 3.7-liter V6 will continue to serve as the base engine, and since it offers up a stout 305 horsepower in its current form, it's likely that the 2.3-liter four-cylinder EcoBoost will produce a bit more than that. At the top of the range, the Mustang GT will continue to soldier on with a V8 engine, which should continue to send over 400 horsepower to the rear wheels.
Finally, while we agree 100 percent with RT's heartfelt request for a paddle-shift automatic, we certainly expect that the EcoBoost 'Stang will be offered with a manual transmission as standard equipment. This is a Mustang, after all...
