                     1956 ford truck



Up for sale is a professionally built and very stylish 1956 ford half ton pickup. The truck was built to be very dependable and very comfortable to drive. As everyone knows these trucks didn't handle very well with the original components. So  every component on this little truck was updated from the front end to the rear end and everything in between. 

  The project started with a super solid original truck with the original paint still on it. The truck was blown apart and all the original components were removed to make way for the new suspension and running gear. The front axle was replaced with a very nice handling jaguar front end. A nice healthy 429 ford motor and C6 transmission was the chosen heart beat. The original rear end was replaced with a ford 9" rear with disk brakes it is mounted on top of springs with the rails c-nothed to acheive the lowered stance but still have plenty of axle travel. There is loads of power and the suspension works great under these trucks the tires are tucked and nothing rubs.

 The body was very nice to start with but it needed a few changes to make it nice and clean. Both the front and rear bumpers were removed and replaced with hand built roll pans. The bed stack pockets were capped, lengthened , and the ends rolled.  The bed is nice and clean with a lot of custom touches. All of the body work was Professionally done so the gaps are nice and the lines are good. Everything was blocked nice and straight and sprayed with satin urethane paint. 

  There is white oak bed wood with stainless steel strips to finish off the bed. Painted steel wheels with stainless steel rings and caps mounted on G78/15 tires. Inside the cab it is super clean and simple with restored gauges, 2 speed electric wipers, very efficient heater and defroster, lokar shifter, courtesy dome light, chrome tilt column, all new switches and a new complete truck wiring harness. The upholstery brand new very clean and comfortable. 

 This is a very nice truck with a very killer stance and street appeal. It drives and great everything works as it should and will give some one a lot of enjoyment. You don't see to many of these truck with big blocks and 4 wheel disk brakes. A ton of time and money was spent on this truck. I am sure I have overlooked some things but you get the idea My number is 208-495-3325 with any questions.

Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.

2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R First Ride

Fri, Jul 31 2015

Ford Performance Chief Engineer Jamal Hameedi was in China when he received an interesting text. Half a world away his team was shaking down the newest Shelby Mustang at Grattan Raceway in rural Michigan. The news was encouraging. The GT350R was keeping pace with a Porsche 911 GT3, even nosing ahead of it during time trials, while the GT350 was running about even with a 911 Carrera S and a Chevy Corvette Stingray. "That was a good text to get," he recounted a week later as we chatted alongside the track at Grattan. On this scorching summer day, there were no Porsches or Stingrays to be found, but we've come to preview the track-focused GT350R. Ford drivers are at the wheel, and we're riding shotgun. After several hot laps, we're left with a predictable observation: The GT350R is wicked fast and quick as hell. Much of this is thanks to the 5.2-liter flat-plane crank V8 that pumps out 526 horsepower and 429 pound-feet of torque. It's the most powerful naturally aspirated road-legal engine in Ford's 112-year history. To help the engineering process, Ford bought a Ferrari 458 Italia and ripped apart its V8. The GT350's engine ended up being 10 pounds lighter. For the coup d'grace, Ford's mill also revs to a Ferrari-like 8,250 rpm. As formidable as all of that looks on paper, it sounds even more imposing in real life (see the related video below). The engine in our GT350R crackles, growls, and opens up to a flat-out roar as we explode onto the track, gripping the door pulls to calm our nerves. Grattan is a challenging, twisty course. The corners are tight, and the elevation changes quickly. At one point, our test driver aggressively tackles a curve and we're briefly airborne. During the first stint, we reach about 140 miles per hour. But the GT350R isn't about straight-line speed or pure power. It's designed to get around a track as rapidly as possible. That means Ford took the 'base' GT350 – which should be more than at home on the track itself – and re-tuned the suspension and aerodynamics. There's a larger front splitter and rear carbon-fiber spoiler. The 19-inch carbon-fiber wheels are stiffer and lighter than comparable aluminum rollers, and they're wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 high performance rubber. Additionally, Ford ripped out the back seats, air conditioning, trunk floorboard, stereo, backup camera, and anything else that wasn't necessary.
