OK, I TRY THIS AGAIN! THIS TIME ONLY SERIOUS BUYERS PLEASE, NO "EXPERTS" THAT WANT TO HELP ME SELLING THE TRUCK!! ALSO, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THIS TRUCK IF YOU WONDER ABOUT THE PRICE! IT IS PRICED TO SELL TO MAKE ROOM FOR ANOTHER TOY! IF IT DOES NOT SELL THIS TIME AROUND I WILL SHOW IT AT THE CHARLOTTE AUTO FAIR IN 3 WEEKS IF YOU WANT TO SEE IT. THANKS

This is a very solid all steel truck! It sounds great and runs very strong, I drive it every week ever since the engine was totally rebuild about 10 month ago. I love to run errands with it and go to the local car shows! I'm the third owner and the second owner purchased the Truck in 1975 and restored it about 15 years ago, but it needed a professional engine overhaul. The Truck has been kept inside since for many years. The body is super straight, the tilt hood needs some adjustment. The truck is rust and bondo free with one exception, the passenger door has some minor rust on the lower door panel, see picture. Paint is of older restoration, looks good but has normal scratches and scuffs (see pictures), but absolutely no dents! Steel floor boards, original steel fenders, truck bed and hood!

I hate to sell it, but I got too many toys as it is. This truck is very solid with thousands of dollars in engine work alone. Receipt and detailed pictures available upon sale.

This is not one of these boring Restomods!!! This is your authentic 1956 F100 with the brand and time period correct engine upgrade!!

Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage

Mon, 17 Mar 2014

There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.

Leno drives Henry Ford II's all-original '52 Ferrari 212 Barchetta

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

The story of the relationship between Henry Ford II and Enzo Ferrari is absolutely fascinating. The two great men of the auto industry had what appeared to be a burgeoning friendship until Ferrari pulled out of a deal to sell his company to Ford in the '60s. The latest car featured in Jay Leno's Garage is a 1952 Ferrari 212 Barchetta that tells the very beginnings of that story.
This Prancing Horse was a gift to Ford from Enzo when the two companies were first thinking about merging, according to the curator of the Petersen Automotive Museum. Ferrari really wanted to show off its best so instead of the 212's normal V12, this car was fitted with the larger 2.7-liter unit from a Ferrari 225. The car has been almost unaltered since then. It still wears its original paint, and it's tires date back to 1954.
The great thing about the Petersen is that unlike a lot of auto museums, the people there actually drive the cars and keep them in working order. Once on the road with Leno behind the wheel, this Ferrari really sings. Unfortunately, he can't open it up too much because the 60-year-old tires really hold things back. Scroll down to watch this amazing piece of automotive history and learn it's possible effect on the styling of the original Ford Thunderbird.

NHTSA opens investigation into Ford Explorer PI brakes

Wed, 27 Aug 2014

This year more than most, it's pleasant when we can string together a few days without word of an automaker or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announcing a bunch of new recalls. It's seemingly been a little quiet on this front lately (barring a spider-related Suzuki issue revealed early today), but now we have word of the government safety agency opening a Preliminary Evaluation into the 2013 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor, a probe that could potentially affect an estimated 20,000 vehicles.
The issue being investigated concerns failures of the front brake hose on the vehicle that show "small splits in the hoses near the body side ferrule of the hose assembly," according to the agency, and the issue could result in longer stopping distances. The feds have reports of 13 malfunctions affecting 11 Explorer units. However, it's important to note that all of the incidents come from a single, unnamed metropolitan police fleet that operates 46 of them. According to The Detroit News, the failures generally took place between December and July.
NHTSA is investigating further to find if this is a more widespread issue than just this one fleet. Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker confirmed to us, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the agency's report.
