1950 Ford F1 Kustom Traditional Hot Rod Rat Rod Half Ton Truck on 2040-cars
San Jose, California, United States
|
This is one phenomenal and one of a kind Kustom, built to be a show stopper, head turner and most importantly a reliable driver. The build began as a 1950 F1 Ford truck. The original chassis, body and rear end were used on this build but the rest is as we say at Vintage Gas Kustoms "Old Soul with a New Heart..." The truck has much going for it. The engine was rebuilt a little over a year ago along with the tranny and both have approx 7xxx miles on it. It has been driven from San Jose to Los Angeles, approx. 400 miles each way, about 4 times without a problem. Gets driven all over the place around locally and to Sacramento for shows and meets. This truck is so reliable it can be a daily driver if wanted. It has a powerful 302 V8 for power plant and 3.89 rear end with C4 tranny for its drive train. Has a little bit missing like bottom felts on the window and no wing window levers which can be obtained easily. Needs carpet and seat upholstery but the beautiful Mexican Blanket does a great job. Head liner and kick panels will also be needed but not necessary, if desired. These items too are easy to obtain for less than $200 for a kit. The body is a in great shape as is the paint but does have some little chips and small scratches here and there from driving, taking to shows and handling when needed to be moved from one area in the garage to another. Mechanically it is in EXCELLENT SHAPE and is reliable. There are approx 7xxx miles on build. The truck is definitely a one of a kind vehicle which demands attention and as mentioned before a reliable driver. This vehicle goes everywhere on its own and not on a trailer as most "nice looking" trucks or cars do... (not a trailer queen)... The build was done right. It has participated in many shows, drives and meets. I am not claiming its a show winner because it hasn't gotten entered to any competition shows just yet and its also got lots of character going for it. I'll provide a list of what the truck has and if I miss something I apologize, just ask any questions you might have about the truck as It is being sold as is and no returns or refunds after sale and there is too much to list about the truck itself.

Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars
Fri, 05 Sep 2014There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
Ford to build next F-150, outgoing model concurrently?
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is rumored to be considering concurrent production for old and new F-150 models in a bid to minimize supply chain disruptions and inventory. Automotive News is reporting that the Blue Oval will build both the current F-150 and its replacement, which we showed you testing just last month, side by side for about half a year before switching over entirely to next-generation production.
As IHS Automotive analyst Mike Jackson told AN, "In order to ramp up, you have to retool...and that means you have to take capacity offline." Building both models alongside could allow Ford to cope with the still strong demand for the current F-150, while populating dealer supplies and working out supply chain kinks for the new model before making a full-time switch.
A loss of capacity when demand is so strong, even for a short period, could spell bad news for Ford, which nets an estimated 90 percent of its global profit on pickups and large SUVs. As AN states, Ford produces the F-150 in both Kansas City, Missouri and Dearborn, Michigan, which allows it to maintain some degree of flexibility in production. The new F-150 is expected to arrive at the 2014 North American International Auto Show as a 2015 model, with a design inspired by the Atlas Concept first shown at the Detroit Auto Show last January.
Amid Mulally rumors, Bill Ford praises company's deep bench
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Bill Ford went on the offensive to combat the rumors that CEO Alan Mulally would leave Dearborn for Steve Ballmer's vacated position leading Microsoft, adding that even if the 68-year-old, former Boeing exec were to depart, the Ford executive team is in a good place.
"I'm happy [Mulally] is going to stick around. But we also feel really good about where we are in terms of succession," Ford told Bloomberg TV, according to Automotive News. Rumors first cropped up about Mulally leaving Ford when AllThingsD speculated that he was in the running, early last month. In that same report, which you can read here, Ford's board of directors reportedly okayed the CEO stepping down ahead of his planned retirement in 2014.
That opened the floodgates, culminating in a report from a few days ago that the rumors over Ballmer's successor just might be true. The story is especially troubling, as Ford hasn't had Mulally under contract, according to AN. "He's here as long as he and I would like it to happen," Ford said, "We're also cognizant of training the next generation and getting them ready to go as well."
