Big trucks like this 1951 Ford F5 remind us today that life was very different  in the 1950's. Most of the heavy lifting around town was handled by trucks very much like this one, designed to carry immense loads at modest speeds. Texas Classic Cars of Dallas is happy to present this 1951 Ford Custom F-5 Boom Truck.

The Ford F series was excellent to transport heavy loads, and the fact that they still remain "handsome" does not hurt. Today they are still the fastest growing cars and trucks for collectors or car lovers. The current owner purchased the truck three years ago and had it restored to use for trade shows for his company.

It ended up being used only once and the owner then just parked it in his warehouse for a little over a year. He brought it to us to refresh and sell. We installed a mechanical fuel pump, new 8 volt battery for more starting ease, new plugs, and also a new master cylinder.

The paint is a modern interpretation of classics, a red with chrome in some parts and the grill protector that screams heavy duty work.

This F5 is every bit nice, a lot of smart upgrades that make it a more practical vehicle for those who really would put it to use.  It is  rust free, with a solid cab, fenders doors and hood.

The interior is neatly trimmed with a red vinyl bench seat and painted metal with the same color as the exterior. The design is very simple but enough for those working people that would love to have this truck reemphasizing on the good lucks and the style of the Ford trucks.

The dash and doors have been all painted giving the interior a great contrast.

Manual steering and drum brakes have been placed and are easy enough to manage, being a big vehicle it may take a bit to get used to it but it will not disappoint you.

Notable details include the cab running lights, heavy duty two hooks up front, and a wood bed that can support any kind of heavy load.

The winch is completely operational.

The mounting of four tires and muffler repair were some of the things we have done here. Fit and finish is appropriate to an original heavy duty truck, with doors that open and close easily, and hood that latches tight, and a very attention grabbing overall look.

A Ford flat head V8 is in place as the engine for this big truck which displaces 239 cu in and makes around 100hp. The carburetor was also rebuilt and the truck runs great.

2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.

Ford could make as much as $13k profit for every F-150

Thu, Apr 30 2015

The Ford F-Series is a perennial member of the US bestseller list with the title in its brawny grasp for over 30 years, and the truck ranks as the top-selling model over $50,000 in the country. It shouldn't come as a shock then that the model is a major buttress of Ford's bottom line. Have you ever wondered just how vital the trucks are to the Blue Oval's health, though? Some math based on recent figures suggests they might be even more important than you think. Automotive News recently did the calculation and came up with that each F-150 sold contributed about $13,333 to the company's profits. That number was based on a statement from Ford CFO Bob Shanks that the automaker could have made another $1 billion in North America for the first quarter with a repeat of last year's sales of the F-150 and Edge, with 60,000 more trucks and 15,000 additional crossovers. If those 75,000 missing vehicles cost the company $1 billion, then they averaged $13,333 each. Also, the F-150 makes up 80 percent of the lost sales, so you might even conclude that each pickup brings even more money into Ford. Automotive News also extrapolates further. Based on a forecast of 800,000 F-Series sales this year, that's about $10.7 billion going into Ford's coffers. Obviously, these figures are far from exact since they are based on a single statement from the automaker's CFO. Autoblog reached out to Ford to see if the numbers were accurate, but the Blue Oval wouldn't comment on vehicle profitability. However, AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan suggests these figures could be on the right track, if a bit high. "The rough guess has been $10,000. Obviously that is a little different for a $60k truck vs a regular cab 4x2 work truck, but $10,000 is the ball park that is used," he said to Autoblog. If you ever wonder why Ford might be loathe to bring the smaller Ranger back to the US when it's available elsewhere, these huge profits are likely part of the answer. The Blue Oval has little reason to cut into the sales of a model that makes the brand billions. Related Video:

How Ford secretly used customers to test its aluminum F-150 [w/video]

Fri, 30 May 2014

Automakers getting clever about disguising development vehicles isn't anything new. Between mules wearing the sheetmetal of other cars and prototypes decked out in as much camouflage as is practical, automakers know how to make it very difficult for the general public to get an exact idea of what kind of vehicle is in development. Ford, though, is rapidly becoming the master.
We knew that the Blue Oval originally tested the durability of the aluminum construction being used for the 2015 F-150 by building an all-aluminum 2014 truck and entering it in the Baja 1000 off-road race. That's no longer a secret. What we didn't know, though, is that the aluminum development dates back to before even that, and that some of the people in question had no idea what it was they were working with.
Ford says this is the first time prototypes have ever been handed over to the public.
