This is a 1955 Ford Truck F100 Custom Cab! I recently picked this truck up and have not had it long. The truck was built back in the day! late 70's- early 80's. This is a Running Driving Truck! I had to do a few things to it because it had been sitting for quite a few years. I got it running and it runs really good! I have driven the truck around for the last few days, not too far because it is currently on a Ca Non Op. It might still have a few Bugs I would kit carb at some point but she still sounds and runs good down the road. Gears have been changed by previous owner, it will get down the freeway with no problem! I'll try and give my best description of the truck but a lot has been done to it. Body is good, sheet metal is straight! Paint is older and does have Clear coming off at different areas on truck. There are a few places where paint has pealed so either run like that or it will need paint! your choice! This Truck does have the Tilt front Hood which is set up with Hydraulic tilt that is some how connected to the power steering pump. (I could not get it to work) so u can lift the hood Manually. Interior is straight out of the 70's has that cool old look. Has after market Gauges and they work! Has Under the Dash AC Unit and it blows but will need service!!! Owner told me it worked when parked!! Nice original Seat and has Seat Belts!! inside looks good!!could use a little cleaning like (carpet). Very Nice Grille and YES the Bumpers are off another Truck!! He want that Big Look for the Truck!! Tailgate is custom with Hidden Cables! Ok now for the Rust The Rear Cab Corners will need replaced or repaired! (please see Pics). The Bed is Custom Made! Sides Super Straight and Smooth, also Custom Tailgate Smooth! The Top of Bed Rails have been replaced with Stainless Steel (please look at pics) I have Ply wood in Bed that I put in and will have a couple bolts holding it down. Motor is Ford SB either a 260-289, It has a 3 Speed on the Floor mated to it. Fun to Drive with the Floor shifter!!! It starts right up! and sounds good with the Dual Exhaust and I believe the pipes are Glass Packs (sounds Great)! I really don't know a lot about the engine I think the only thing I would do it maybe Kit the Carb, it idles good after it warms up. I think the engine is around 1964-66. The motor does need some cleaning has oil here and there. I have had this trucked parked in my garage for a month or so and no oil leaks on the floor, (not sure where the old oil on block came from). Chassis is all Original Ford! This Truck Does have Power Steering and Steers really Nice down the Road and when stopped it turns easy!! I drove the truck at high speeds and she drove Straight and Brakes work Like 1955 Brakes Should!! (if you know what I mean you have to put some foot power on them) lol It does not wonder down the road but if you hit a bump it does pull a little nothing bad at all! Electrical is all there and does have a few too many wires on fire wall but I guess that's the way the guy did it back then. Lights, Blinkers, Hazards, Taillights. Brake lights, Dome light, Wipers all WORK!!! This is a Running Truck! I have not had it long at all so I 'mtelling you what I know and see on the truck. Its not a show truck its a Hot Rod, Rat Rod or Cruiser, Its Old School and Looks Old School. The Truck sat for a few years before I got to it, so I only know what I see. Still a nice little 55 that you can drive and still do your own stuff to it. If You Have any Questions Please ask!!! I am trying to describe the truck the best I can. I have not have it long. Title is Clear and in My name with a Ca Non Op. I will sell overseas and will help with loading on my end as much as possible. There will be a $500.00 Deposit due within 3 days at end of auction through pay pal with the remaining balance to be paid within 6 Days at end of auction Unless other arrangements are made! it will be Cash, or Certified Bank Cashers Check Or Bank Transfer. If you have any Questions Please ask!!! |

Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board
Wed, Apr 3 2019Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.
Here's what it's like to drive the very first Ford Mustang cop car
Thu, Jan 29 2015As we recently discovered, there's something different about driving a police car. That's true whether you're talking about a modern Dodge Charger Pursuit or, yes, the legendary Ford Mustang SSP. Former Autoblog staffer and current Road and Track web editor Zach Bowman discovered this when he shanghaied a 2015 Mustang GT and made the trip to Nashville, TN to drive the very first Mustang SSP police car. The two-tone, V8-powered prototype was delivered into the welcoming arms of the California Highway Patrol back in 1981 for evaluation. Bowman chatted up cop-car aficionado Mike Strinich, the prototype's current owner, and managed to score some seat time in the car, which provided a unique interesting contrast to the SSP's 435-horsepower junior. Head over to R&T for the complete read.
Ford Focus RS ready to make our hot hatch dreams real
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Ford's current hot hatch siblings the Fiesta ST and Focus ST are already two pretty great entries into the segment, but there's always a desire for a little more. Thankfully, it looks like the Blue Oval is ready to satiate that need because it's continuing to test the even more powerful Focus RS around Europe. According to our spy shooters, these shots come from near the Nürburgring.
As with previous photos, Ford engineers continue to heavily camouflage the front end of the RS prototypes, but there's a big difference here. Unlike earlier ones, this example appears to have a closer-to-production-ready front bumper rather than just a horizontal strip for the license plate. That may point to development getting somewhat closer to wrapping up. Although, this one lacks the larger rear wing from prior testers, and the exhaust also appears to be a work in progress with the rear diffuser covered in mesh in these latest shots.
The RS is rumored to be using the 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Mustang, but power is reportedly turned up from 310 horsepower in the 'Stang to somewhere between 325 hp and 350 hp for the Focus. Routing all that just through the front wheels could be a recipe for serious torque steer, and all-wheel drive is potentially being used for better traction.
