Hello and thanks for looking at my listing I have a 1952 Ford F6 that I built this rat rod out o.f To start of,f I drive this truck daily with no problems at all and it is getting around 19mpg and has no problems running 65mph at all. The truck has the correct title in my name in my hand with no issues or anything like that it is titled and insured as a 1952 ford with that out of the way,.. the cab was chopped 7 inches, it has a new windshield in the front and the rear glass was cut from the original glass that was in it. There is no side glass, but regulators are in the doors still I beleive they are froze up but I'm sure they would work again with some time and oil. I cut the original F6 frame off right behind the cab then built a 2x3 tubing rear frame section. It has a 1998 GM 10 bolt with disk brakes out of a blazer held in with an all adjustable triangulated 4 link set up with two 2500lb air bags that I have set up to just air up to ride height and go once they are aired up, they stay up. I didnt want all the valves and compressor mess in the truck and the fuel tank is a schedule 40 8 inch stainless pipe with end caps welded on it the tank holds right around 9 gallons and has an new electric pump right at the tank to push the fuel it also has brand new 3/8 stainless fuel line from rear to the carb the everthing on the
Rear of the truck is new inside of frame rails except rear end but the pinion seal is new with fresh oil the bed is a 1953 model ford bed that has had 17 inches of lenth 11 inches of width and 8 inches of height took out of it. Now for the front section; it is the original 1952 F6 frame and still has the vin number stamped in the right front rail. I removed the F6 straight axle and springs and bought a 1937 Ford sedan straight axle and sping set up and moved it all the way to the front of the frame and used the original wishbone set up but shortened them and built a cross member under oil pan to use this set and by doing this I could add a little more camber to the front axle making it drive and steer very well along with those modifications it has all new disk brakes on the front and I mean all the way down to the bearings in the rotors it is all GM style and I have all part numbers fo these items for future needs it also has new shocks, spring hanger bushings, new tires on weld racing wheels, on front
all the brake lines from front to rear are new along with new GM master Cylinder. It stops very well. The rear wheels are 15x14 with a7.5 offset with 33/19.50/15 Mickey Thompson sportsman pros that are thin but I still runable for a little while. The engine is a 8ba 239 Ford flathead that runs very well. It has new plugs wires, fresh oil, filte,r and fresh carb. Starts right and it has all been changed to 12v with new wiring throughout. The tranny is a 4 speed that works very well. This truck was not thrown together with a bunch of junk it is very safe and alot of fun to drive it draws a lot of attention and people are always stopping to take pictures of it no matter where I go. For any more questions please call this number this 270 227 3493 or text for more pic the rear mail seal drips a little and I mean drip it is nothing to keep the truck from driving and running and the seats kind of suck, they need raised up, I put them in to go to car show and have never took them back out to raise. It is more fun to drive then work on. if I have left anything out you are concerned about please call or text thank you for your time.

Matt Damon is Carroll Shelby, with Christian Bale in Ford vs. Ferrari film
Thu, Jun 21 2018Right after we reported that one of the Le Mans-winning Ford GT40s is coming up for auction, word got round that its story will now be turned into a Hollywood movie. There will be an as-yet-untitled major motion picture that tells the story of Ford battling Ferrari in the 1960s, culminating in the Ford GT40's dramatic 1-2-3 finish in the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans. The movie has lined up an all-star cast, with "Batman" and "American Psycho" actor Christian Bale tapped to play key GT40 developer, test driver and racer Ken Miles, and "Punisher" actor Jon Bernthal as Lee Iacocca. The plum role of Carroll Shelby is going to Matt Damon, last seen driving across the Red Planet in "The Martian" or down a flight of stairs in the "Bourne" film series. The film's director will be James Mangold, known from directing last year's "Logan." View 37 Photos Autoweek reports that the original screenplay was based on A.J. Baime's book " Go Like Hell," but there will be a different screenplay written from scratch. Originally, "Go Like Hell" was to be a different project starring Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. Meanwhile, the book will reportedly be turned into a TV series produced by Peter Dinklage of "Game of Thrones." And meanwhile some more, there are also competing Enzo Ferrari biopics in the works starring Robert De Niro and another starring Hugh Jackman that will also surely touch on the rivalry with Ford. While there's no guarantee yet that the GT40 biopic will match Steve McQueen's "Le Mans," we're got high hopes. It's a great story worthy of all the attention it's getting.

Stock Miata beats bunch of high-powered cars in wet 1/4-mile drag race
Thu, 06 Jun 2013When is a stock, 167-horsepower Mazda MX-5 Miata quicker than a Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise and a Porsche 911? When it's raining. Sort of.
Mazda Canada arranged a unique drag race to show off the fact that the Miata's optional power retractable folding hardtop can go from top-down to top-up in just 12 seconds flat. In this video, all six cars line up for a drag race, and it starts to rain (well, sort of - but you'll have to watch the video all the way to the end to see what we mean). The green flag is waved, and the timer starts as soon as the convertibles begin to put their tops up. But because the Miata's roof mechanism gets the car's roof back up a full 5.1 seconds quicker than the second-place car, the Mazda gets a serious advantage off the line for the actual drag race.
It's a fun video. And while we've spoiled the results (come on, the video was uploaded by Mazda, you knew the Miata was going to win), be sure to see how it all unfolds, below.
