You are looking at a real California Custom Cruiser that the whole family can enjoy! This 1957 Ford has the right "Kustom Kulture Look" The body is straight and solid shot in Grey high fill primer, ready for paint. It starts, drives and stops very well. It has a low mileage 292 cu in Y-Block engine with a new 2 barrel Holley carburetor, great on gas. The “Three on the Tree” Transmission shifts well. I have replaced the battery, coil, distributor cap, rotor, condenser, plugs wires, put an electric fuel pump on it, all wiring has been either replaced or fixed, new starter solenoid, new 12 Volt “One Wire alternator” conversion with custom brackets, put a cut off switch in for the battery it's under the dash so it's hidden installed it because these cars were easy to hot wire, radiator was removed flushed, new upper and lower hoses, all new vacuum hoses, water pump was replaced. Purrs like a kitten, runs like a cheetah, and stays cool like Fonzi.

This rare Model 300 Ford is a lowered ride with de-arched reversed eyed leaf springs and blocks in the back, lowering springs in the front. Brand new Radial White Wall Tires on 14" Black Steelies with original Ford hubcaps. The drivers side front flat door glass has a crack (not in drivers view), while the back window and the rest of the glass is crack free. New exhaust and gas tank. I built my own gas tank to match the old one exactly, replaced all gas lines and in have a new sending unit just haven't installed it yet, but included. The Brakes have a new master cylinder and rebuilt wheel cylinders, brakes were bled and adjusted, stops on a dime.

This "One of a Kind" Sedan has many new and upgraded parts, well over 10K invested!

The interior is very comfortable with new carpet, all trim was removed and painted, seats are all original but not in the best shape very small rips in the front and stained I've cleaned them up the best I could and don't look to bad, I have kept everything on the interior original so rear door panels have been cleaned and fixed, front door panels are usable and included they will need new chip board.

Originally sold in San Jose California and used as a Fed Service Car. It has all the holes in dash and room from where the CB radio and police lights were mounted. The holes in the roof were filled though so you can't see them from the outside. I also installed a custom bracket in the back seat for children car seats since there are no seat belts.


This is a California car and has always been to the best of my knowledge, a daily driver with clear California title. Visible Vin and Body Tags. I built this car for someone to just enjoy a nice daily driver or take it to shows it's not perfect it's not a trailer queen by any means but it's a cool car and there are not many around. Drive as is or restore it, must see to appreciate!!! CALL (916)308 zero eight seven 4 or message me for details

FBI investigating recently fired Ford engineer for espionage

Fri, 25 Jul 2014

Agents of the FBI are investigating a potential case of industrial espionage involving a recently fired Ford employee. The Dearborn, MI-based manufacturer had its world headquarters searched by FBI agents on July 11, and according to The Detroit News, had warrants to seize recording devices handed over to Ford by Sharon Leach, a now-former Ford engineer.
Leach, who had spent 17 years with the Blue Oval, was fired last month, after Ford Security relieved her of eight Sansa listening devices. The FBI got involved shortly after her dismissal, searching her home on June 20 and seizing some two dozen items, including computers, jump drives and financial records, according to warrants obtained by The News.
Ford has remained quiet on the matter, with spokeswoman Susan Krusel confirming that the automaker was working with the FBI as part of a "joint investigation," while declining to provide any additional details.

Ford wins second consecutive Engine of the Year with 1.0L EcoBoost [UPDATE]

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

For the second year in a row, Ford has taken top honors in International Engine of the Year voting. As was the case last year, it is Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine that earns the automaker the accolade, achieving the highest-ever accumulated score in the 15 years that the award has been handed out.
A panel of 87 automotive journalists from 35 countries are responsible for choosing the world's best engines, and this is only the third time an automaker has managed back-to-back victories. Voters were impressed by the "Baby EcoBoost" engine's power output - 123 horsepower between 1,400 and 4,500 rpm, 148 pound-feet of torque from 1,400 to 4,000 rpm - and its compact size; Ford has demonstrated that the package is small enough to fit in the overhead bin of a passenger airplane.
Currently, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered in the European Fiesta, B-MAX, Focus, C-MAX and Grand C-MAX, and Ford plans to put the engine in the Transit Connect, Transit Courier, Tourneo Connect, Tourneo Courier, Mondeo and EcoSport in short order. In North America, the Fiesta will be the first vehicle to offer the 1.0L EcoBoost later this year.

2017 Ford GT spied in the raw

Thu, May 14 2015

The Ford GT supercar is finally going outside to play, and it has been captured for the first time prowling the streets near Ford's compound in Dearborn, MI. Due in late 2016, the GT has been one of Ford's most closely guarded projects and was developed under a veil of secrecy. The prototype revealed at the Detroit Auto Show stunned enthusiasts, and these shots illustrate that it's making the leap to production reality. As our spy shooter wryly notes, the mule captured in these photographs looks like a Mad Max prop. It's colorless, is missing key body parts – note the ringless taillights and lack of a rear bumper or diffuser. It also looks to be even lower to the ground than the concept from the Detroit show. It appears to have different mirrors and windshield wipers. The lack of some body panels also calls out the exhaust pipes, which look like tail guns in these shots. Otherwise, this test car looks just like the auto show star, and sans paint it manages to appear even more sinister. Though these spy shots indicate the GT is on track for production, Ford has been pretty up front about what the car will be when it arrives in showrooms. We know it will have a twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. It will make extensive use of carbon fiber and feature a driver-oriented, contemporary-styled interior. Canadian company Multimatic will build the GT. The Le Mans-inspired supercar is the standard-bearer for Ford's renewed performance push. The automaker plans to roll out at least 12 sporting cars by 2020 as it looks to lure new buyers to its fold. Ford also using developments from these high-end cars to improve its lineup, and will it spread aerodynamics and materials technologies across its portfolio. "It's another proof point about how serious we are in developing innovation through performance," Ford product chief Raj Nair has said.
