1966 Ford F100 on 2040-cars
Largo, Florida, United States
|
This is a 1966 Ford F100 step side, There is too much to say about this truck in this small space but I will try. Lets start with the good, the frame has been fully boxed, 2002 crown victoria police front suspension, 1994 Lincoln mark 8 independent rear suspension, 1996 Ford mustang 4.6, T45 manual 5 speed transmission, brand new radiator core support, brand new American Autowire wiring harness not installed yet (cost $500), hydraulic clutch master and slave cylinder not installed yet, shortened steering column, hydroboost brake booster, auto meter tach, speedo, brand new fuel cell 15 gallon, brand new fuel pump and filters, 4.6 wiring harness has been striped down and labeled just needs to be finished being hooked up. Now for the bad or unfinished, all the brakes need to be gone through (needs lines, pads, possibly calipers), needs drive shaft fit to truck ( comes with one), has dents in every panel (some small some pretty big), has some rust in lower spots ( rear cab corners, small spots underneath, I fixed a lot of them already and I have a new panel for the left rear cab), has no bed floor and will need the wood kit, This was a desert truck from west texas so it does not have much rust except where dust settled in some of the lower spots and holes over the years, needs the front bumper and lower grill, tail gate is not that great. I have tried to list everything I can think of but there may be some more small problems or more new parts to come with it. With that being said this is a great truck project with most of the hard work being already done, the motor does start but does not have a cooling system hooked up so I can't run it long. Will be a great truck for a hot rod or leave the paint alone and have a rat rod, should handle great when done with 4 wheel independent suspension and disk brakes.

2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of
Tue, 17 Dec 2013One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.
BMW to follow Honda back into F1?
Mon, 14 Apr 2014The economic downturn wrought devastating effects on motor racing. Formula One alone lost half its engine suppliers when Honda left at the end of the 2008 season, and both BMW and Toyota followed at the end of 2009. But things are looking up again. Cosworth may have dropped out this season, reducing the engine suppliers to three: Ferrari, Renault and Mercedes, the latter of which admits that it may have left had the engine formula not changed. But Mercedes has stayed and is dominating the championship. Honda is coming back next season. And word around the paddock is it may not be the only one.
According to Giancarlo Minardi - founder of the team now known as Scuderia Toro Rosso - BMW engineers have been conspicuously spotted lately at F1 test sessions and grands prix, lending to speculation that the new engine regulations may entice the Bavarian automaker back into the series. According to Minardi, BMW's marketing division is pushing for the automaker's return to F1, with the board slated to make a decision in May. BMW would be more likely to consider an engine-supply deal rather than taking a team over like it had with Sauber, but with which team or teams it might collaborate remains a big question mark at this point.
As if that's not enough, Ford is said to be considering taking over Cosworth's aborted V6 turbo engine program to take both outfits back into the sport as well. Cosworth supplied F1 engines under the Ford banner for years, but returned under its own name for four seasons from 2010 through 2013 before shuttering its program to develop an engine to meet the new regulations adopted this season.
RWD Lincolns are coming, fate depends partly on MKZ success
Tue, 04 Dec 2012The product portfolio at Lincoln may seem a bit sparse at the moment, but if a report is to be believed, new products are on the way. TheDetroitBureau.com spoke with sources at Lincoln and Ford, who claimed the American premium brand is working on, perhaps more than one, rear-wheel-drive vehicle.
Lincoln would likely platform-share with the next-generation Ford Mustang to develop those RWD offerings in the early going. Moving forward, the report indicates that Lincoln could take the lead on other rear-drive projects in the future. As the RWD architecture continues to take shape, "most or all" of the front-wheel-drive portfolio will also be offered with all-wheel drive as an option, ala Audi.
But wait, there's more! The report also suggests that a replacement for the full-size MKS is on the way, as well as a new Navigator and a luxury crossover based on the current Ford Escape.
