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. |

2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty is class-leading once again
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Time for everyone to feign surprise - Ford has just announced that it has the increased horsepower and torque levels of its 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel V8 engine for 2015. As you'd expect, the Blue Oval is claiming class-leading figures of 440 hp (up from 400) and 860 pound-feet (up from 800), and that's enough to enable Ford's F-450 Super Duty model to tow as much as 31,200 pounds, which, again, the automaker claims is class leading.
Now, it should be noted that the max rating quoted above is achieved with the Ford F-450. The 2015 F-350, which is perhaps a better comparison to the Ram 3500 HD pickup that claimed the towing crown in 2013 at an even 30,000 pounds, is capped at 26,500 pounds, either with a gooseneck or when towing a fifth-wheel trailer. In any case, it's going to take a load the size of Godzilla to make any of the current crop of fullsize heavy-duty pickup trucks break into a sweat. For those keeping track, Chevy rates its 2015 Silverado HD at a maximum of 23,200 pounds.
Ford's newfound pulling power comes courtesy of a larger turbocharger for its in-house Power Stroke engine, new fuel injector tips and, we'd assume, retuned computer controls. Besides the engine enhancements, the F-350 gets a wider front track for 2015 and new front springs, while the F-450 gains commercial-grade 19.5-inch wheels and tires, new rear U-joints, leaf springs, stabilizer bars and shocks. The steering and brake systems have also been upgraded.
2015 Ford F-150 appearance guide takes the truck from mild to wild with options
Thu, 31 Jul 2014We already know that the 2015 Ford F-150 has a base price coming in at just $395 more than the 2014 model, despite all of the new standard tech and aluminum-intensive construction in the upcoming version. Now the Blue Oval is finally giving us an idea of what that extra money actually buys customers, with the release of the appearance guide for its latest pickup.
The guide basically explains everything you could want to know about what changes occur among the multitude of trims on the 2015 F-150. There are five levels for the new truck. Although, that is something of a misnomer because most of them are also available with either Sport or Chrome packages, plus the FX4 Off-Road option with Hill Descent Control, an electronic-locking rear axle, off-road shocks and skid plates. With 13 available colors, including 4 new ones, and 14 wheel designs in various sizes, pickup buyers should have no problem specing one to fit their style.
The lineup starts out with the base XL with a black grille and fascia and 17-inch wheels. However, across most of the range the Sport and Chrome packages are also available to add either body-color or chrome accents, respectively. Next up is the XLT with a standard chrome grille but also available with a black, billet-style one with a body-color surround. Things really start getting plush with the Lariat model with leather trim, a three-bar front end and 18-inch wheels. The King Ranch sticks with that look but adds power running boards, 20-inch wheels and two-tone paint. Finally, the top-dog Platinum is all about bling with yet another frontal design, chrome door handles and mirror caps, a big logo running across the tailgate and more.
Ford EcoSport Storm concept swallows a Raptor in Sao Paulo
Sun, 02 Nov 2014Ford rolled into the Sao Paulo Motor Show with some pretty cool crossovers in tow, the awesomest of all being the EcoSport Storm concept shown above, which draws its inspiration directly from the F-150 SVT Raptor. It packs a lower grille clearly derived from the now-famous muscle truck, as well as a Blue Storm paint job, black and silver trim, special graphics, lower body cladding and 215/75 R15 off-road tires. Don't go holding your breath for a supercharged V8, though; made locally in Brazil, India and Thailand, the tiny EcoSport is typically powered by a three- or four-cylinder engine.
The Storm isn't the only specially prepared Ecosport on show, however, joined as it is by another pair called Beauty and the Beast. Beauty is decked out in matte copper with a black roof, LED fog lamps, 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires and an interior complete with four individual bucket seats, leather upholstery and a full multimedia suite. The Beast, meanwhile, takes a sportier approach with a white pearl finish, blue and orange trim and three-bar grille. It also wears 18-inch wheels and LED fog lamps, but its interior swaps out its rear seats for a bike rack.
Joining the EcoSport show cars was an Edge crossover equipped with all the latest technologies and done up in bright red with three-bar grille, bulging hood, and an interior featuring 10-inch touchscreens and leather upholstery. Feel free to read more in the press release below.
