1952 Ford F-100 (f-1) Street Rod Pickup-custom-great Looks & Ride-awesome Truck on 2040-cars
El Paso, Texas, United States
My 1952 Ford Pickup Street Rod is an awesome combination of Retro Looks match with Today's Performance Standards. It's Amazing. Ok, let's get into some specifics. The truck is "motorvated" ...moved by a Mr. Goodwrench Crate 350 (5.7) V8 along with a new GM 350 Automatic Transmission. Of course the engine and transmission have been "beefed" up to provide this gorgeous truck with a little more performance than what a stock 350 setup provides. It looks great, sounds great, and performs great as well. There's about 5000 miles on the truck since completion. And the radiator is a high performance unit to accommodate the V8 and great Vintage Air Conditioning in the truck. A lot of innovation went into the building of this fabulous 1952 Ford Pickup Street Rod. Did you notice the grille? Look directly below and see if you can figure out what's different about it. Most people can't. Of course, the chrome speaks for itself. Most stock 1952 Ford Pickups had the grilles painted white or gray. But look a little harder. Notice anything? The stock 1952 Ford pickup had 3 vertical "teeth" in the grile. THIS ONE HAS 5. Isn't that cool? This was an expensive modification to complete but this beautiful truck deserves the love and attention it got. Now here's another fun and totally cool thing to consider. Look at the cab from the side. Notice anything? You probably don't but the cab was "chopped" 2" , meaning that this cab is 2" shorter than a stock cab. This doesn't effect your comfort at all as there is plenty of headroom. But it looks soooooooooo good....don't ya think? The pictures were taking on my cellphone and don't do this amazing truck justice. The paint is actually quite metallic and it literally grabs your eyes when the sun is shining. Looks great. The interior is exceptionally nice and like I mentioned, it has a great Vintage Air Conditioner/Heat Unit that keeps the cab comfortable during all times of the year. And check out that awesome chrome tilt steering column......NICE. It has the original gauges to retain the nostalgic look but also has a nice set of modern gauges directly to the right. Looks totally cool. Oh, did I mention it has electric windows and a great stereo? Well, it does. Oh, let me also mention that in the past this truck was used for advertising State Farm Insurance Companies. Check out the license plate on the truck. If you sound it out, it says 1 GOOD NEIGHBOR. Speaks for itself. The only reason I am selling my beautiful truck is I have the "itch" for a really nice trike such as a Boss Hoss Trike, or a Victory Vision Trike, or a Harley Ultra Trike or some similar really nice trike. Other than this "itch" of mine, I would not be selling my truck. Ok, some details about the auction. I will not sell to foreign buyers but I will work with buyers from Canada and Mexico. I will not ship but will cooperate with the shipper of your choice or you can fly into the El Paso, TX International airport where I will pick you up and you can drive it home. And it will be a great ride. Bidders with a 5 or less feedback rating need to call me first at 915-276-1505 to discuss how you would pay, etc or your bid(s) can and probably will be removed without notice. I reserve the right to remove the auction at anytime as the truck is advertised elsewhere as well. However, if the auction meets the reserve, I will complete the sale on eBay regardless of any other outside offers I may get. If payment is made with any kind of check, the truck and title will not be released until the check has had sufficient time to clear my bank. Or you can deposit the money directly into my Wells Fargo account. Thanks for looking at my truck On Oct-31-13 at 20:08:28 PDT, seller added the following information: I have been asked what type of front end the truck has and I apologize for the oversight. It has a Mustang II front end with power disc brakes. Handles and stops real nice |

2015 Ford C-Max gets a corporate nose job [w/video]
Thu, 02 Oct 2014Ford might not have the splashiest booth here at the 2014 Paris Motor Show, but the automaker is showing off quite a bit of hardware that will actually end up on roads across Europe. Parisians are no doubt tickled at getting to see the specifications of the Mustang tuned for The Continent (which has a revised suspension for European roads, and a few visual nips and tucks), in addition to the revised face of the family-friendly C-Max.
As you can see, C-Max styling has been revisited with a deft touch, grafting Ford's six-sided corporate grille on the nose, in place of the outgoing car's two-part affair. New headlights can also be found on the car's revised front fascia, though the rear end of the C-Max looks only slightly different than the current version.
Inside the cabin, Ford has consolidated controls and upped the ante in terms of material quality, with "black satin" and chrome details and more storage capacity, overall. Grocery-lugging moms and dads everywhere should appreciate the hands-free liftgate feature, as well.
Ford begins testing right-hand-drive Mustang
Wed, 20 Aug 2014Ford has officially kicked off testing of the right-hand-drive variant of its sixth-generation, 2015 Mustang, according to a statement issued by the company, which came with the above photo.
According to Ford, this will mark the first time a right-hand-drive 'Stang has traveled down the company's assembly line alongside its LHD brethren. It is far from the first of the legendary pony cars to feature its wheel on the wrong side, though, as converters in RHD markets across the globe have been making swaps for years.
Ford is planning on using the white, droptop Mustang for RHD development ahead of the car's arrival in the UK, Australia and South Africa, among other markets. Scroll down for the official press blast.
2016 Ford Explorer embarks at the LA Auto Show
Wed, 29 Oct 2014Twenty-five years since its debut in 1990, Ford will celebrate a quarter century of Explorer models next year with the debut of a refreshed 2016 model at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19. The Blue Oval is keeping mum on hard details about the updated SUV for now, but the brand promises, "a new look, added capability and additional driver-assist technology," in its announcement.
Company marketing boss Jim Farley elaborated a little more on what to expect. "The new Explorer is still the SUV America fell in love with - a vehicle built for the perfect family adventure," he said in the release that you're welcome to read down below.
An updated Explorer is a pretty big deal for Ford's bottom line. Worldwide, SUVs and crossovers account for about 23 percent of Ford's sales, and the segment is projected to grow to around 29 percent by 2020. Ford further says that SUVs and CUVs are the world's quickest growing segment with demand up 88 percent since 2008.
