This is an extremely clean 1954 Ford F100 1/2 ton short bed. It has under 29,000 since the complete re-build. Everything on this truck works. It is a nice reliable daily driver or show truck. The truck was a high quality build and is still able to win awards at local shows. The truck cruises down the highway at 70 mph at 2300 rpm thanks to the overdrive transmission and 3:25 gears. This has always been a California truck and rarely sees rain.
The Chevrolet 327 V8 was completely rebuilt with a mild cam ( 268 D, 450 L) and 10 to 1 compression. It has a Holley aluminum intake with Edelbrock 4 barrel carb., air cleaner and high volume fuel pump, Aluminum valve covers, HEI ignition with MSD 8mm wires, shorty headers with Flowmaster exhaust system and a new aluminum radiator. The transmission is a rebuilt S&W Performance 700R4, 4 speed automatic overdrive with Lokar fill tube. The rear end is a Currie built Ford 9” peg leg with 3.25 gears and drum brakes hung on mono leaf springs. The rear suspension also has an air bag system with on board compressor, interior controls and gauge. The front suspension is a completely rebuilt Volare independent with power steering and power disc brakes. Wheels are 18” Boze. Fronts are 18x8 with 245/45/18 Falken tires and the rears are 18x9 with 275/40/18 Falken tires. There is a new aluminum 19 gal. fuel tank under the driver side of the cab.
The body is very straight and rust free with a high quality pearl yellow paint job. There have been a few touch ups and a couple minor chips from use. The front bumper has been removed and a roll pan added. The rear bumper has been raised and the mounting brackets shortened. It also has a hidden receiver trailer hitch behind the hinged license plate. The body seams have been smoothed and the emblems removed. The door handles have been shaved and the driver door is on a popper. The windows have been converted to one piece power with tinted glass. The gas filler has been placed behind a door, the hood is reverse tilt and the tailgate has a Sir Michaels smooth skin with hidden latches. The bed floor is steel and the bed, running boards, interior floor and rear cab have been coated with Tuff Skin spray one material. The complete interior was redone including billet gauge face with 5 Classic Instruments gauges, a tach beneath the dash, billet headlight and wiper knobs, billet pop out cup holders, billet Lokar gas pedal/ linkage and brake pad, an am/fm/cd player in the glove box, tweed headliner, visors and door panels, tilt steering column with billet banjo wheel and controls, leather 60/40 seat with storage underneath, billet third brake light and 2 speed electric wipers.The truck is currently licensed and insured in my name. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, however I will assist where I can. Or, just drive it home. Deposit due in 3 days and full payment in 7 days unless agreed upon in advance. If terms not met the sale will be canceled. The truck is for sale locally and the auction could be ended if the reserve has not been met. The reserve is set lower than the current bids on comparable trucks listed. Contact Don at (714) 390-3108 or through eBay with any questions. |

Top Gear pits Hennessey VelociRaptor vs. Range Rover Sport SVR
Fri, Jun 5 2015As a television series, Top Gear is in limbo with an intent to return, but no hosts yet. However, it's magazine and website continue to bring us clips like this one. While the video might lack the show's charismatic hosts, this is an opportunity to see a drag race between a Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR with 550 horsepower and a Hennessey VelociRaptor with 623 hp. The duel between these two supercharged V8s definitely sounds great. Both rugged models start at the line growling angrily at each other like dogs ready for a fight. You have to watch the clip to see whether the more powerful VelociRaptor feeds on the SVR, though.

Xcar gets the scoop on Ford's strategy for the GT at Le Mans in 2016
Fri, Jul 3 2015Ford's plan to return to the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2016 with the latest GT might have been one of the worst kept secrets in motorsports in recently memory. Even before the road car debuted at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, rumors were flying about the Blue Oval's strategy. The wait for the official announcement just before this year's race was certainly a long one, but it was probably worthwhile just to see the competition version's spectacular looks. Xcar recently got the chance to interview Ford about the company's objectives for the new racer's development. Both the GT racing and street programs are meant as ways to advance cutting-edge technology and potentially let it trickle down to less-expensive models in the future. This is especially the case when it comes to finding ways to make carbon fiber cheaper and better. Of course, the supercar is also a showcase of what Ford can do competitively, and apparently there are patent-pending suspension parts the company isn't even talking about yet. Ford would love to score a class victory at Le Mans next year, and is pretty clear here and in its earlier promo video that it sees Ferrari as a major rival in the race. While that makes sense historically, the cross-town competitors at Corvette could be an even bigger challenger. That squad has a more recent legacy of success in the 24-hour challenge, including a victory in the GTE-Pro class this year. Related Video:
Woman reunited with stolen Mustang after 28 years
Sun, Dec 28 2014An enthusiast Christmas story: Salinas, California resident Lynda Alsip bought a 1967 Ford Mustang in 1984 when she was 17 years old, having saved $800 after a summer of toil at a grocery store. She got a vanity plate that read "LYNDA67," for the year she was born, but she only got to enjoy the car for two years: in 1986, after a night out, someone stole it from her apartment complex. She hadn't seen it since. Then a man – another Salinas resident – tried to register the car at the DMV this year. He said he bought it as a project car in 1991, yet the DMV couldn't find any record of it. The DMV office sent the case of the untraceable car to the California Highway Patrol, where Officer Christopher Menchen dug into the records, and his search paid off. The officer located Alsip's stolen record report from 1986 and connected the Mustang to it's registered owner in 1986, who was Alsip's mother. The CHP found the forest green Mustang in the man's garage, and they figure it's been there since 1991. After waiting through the still-ongoing three-month investigation, the CHP reunited Alsip – now a wife and a mother of two – with her car on December 22. It's undriveable, but her original vanity plate is back on and she plans to restore it. The video above has the story.
