Bought the truck as a hot rod or rat rod project from a company that does custom car and truck audio installs. Every year they would do a new project ride to showcase their audio abilities at shows. This was their project car/truck and were into it for about $18,000. All work done by top professionals since this was going to be their showcase truck.

The frame is from a S10 pickup modified for the airbag suspension (installed). The axles are recessed so the truck can be lowered. The cab and truck bed is a 1951 F100 Ford pickup with new cab floor. There is no body parts forward of the firewall or rear fenders. The cab has been channeled to sit lower on the frame. Comes with an antique John Deere grill for front end. 

Professionally built small block Chevy with a hot cam. It was built by a professional racing shop.
Rebuilt transmission
Cadillac steering column
Wiring harness
Windshield
Nice wheels and tires, old school Centerline smoothies with Proxies
All parts needed to finish the truck, except the pedal assembly, headlights and seats.

Body needs to be bolted to frame, wiring needs to be installed, there's no seats for cab, new cab floor due to channeling. Gauges are there, but not sure if they work, steering column and pedal assembly needs installed. There has been a slight body repair just forward of the driver's side door that can be seen in the pics. There is very light surface rust that will easily be sanded out as seen in the pics.

Next Ford Mustang to drop 400 pounds

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

The Ford Mustang is already the lightest of the current crop of muscle cars, at around 3,600 pounds for a GT coupe with the six-speed manual transmission. That's almost 260 pounds less than a Chevrolet Camaro SS and about 450 pounds less than a Dodge Challenger R/T, which means the Mustang has a pretty big advantage when it comes to handling, braking, accelerating and economy. More good news: The next Mustang will be even lighter.
According to a report from Edmunds, the sixth-generation Mustang, which is set to debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, will shed an additional 400 pounds of body fat. That 11-percent weight reduction will be thanks to lightweight materials, with a particular focus on using stronger, but less material in construction. Aluminum will feature heavily, but Edmunds' inside source warns that there is "nothing terribly exotic" coming to the original pony car.
The other big news is that the new Mustang will be smaller overall. It's going to be 15-inches shorter than the 188.5-inch Mustang on sale today, while it'll also be 6.5 inches narrower. Shorter overhangs, both in the front and rear, are also good signs for those that want an agile Mustang.

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.
