Stunning F100 Ford Restored Pickup Truck. 350 Engine. Multiple Car Show Winner. on 2040-cars
Arlington Heights, Illinois, United States
Hello I am selling one of my favorite cars I have ever owned in my life. My 1951 ford f100 pickup. This car has been to countless car shows with me and my sons and everyone comes to talk to me about the car.
VIN Number is F2R1KC28323 This car has had alot of money invested into it to make it what it is today. I used her for car shows and sunday driving but she would be great for someone who would want a daily driver as well. She starts up everytime with no hesitation. Even after sitting a couple weeks she starts no problem. The Engine is a very reliable 350 Small block which is attached to a 4 speed cast iron truck transmission. I actually start the car in 2nd gear everytime because 1st gear has way too much torque. A really fun and fast car to drive. But driving down the highway at 60 mph I use one hand on the steering wheel because it drives so smooth. This car has all the features of modern day cars. It has power steering, disk brakes, cd/dvd player, heater, hydraulic bed lift, led taillights and a very very nice bed cover. All lights highbeams drls headlights turn signals brake lights work perfect. Clutch and trans work flawless shift very smooth and very easy. Engine as stated before runs extremley strong. Wheels are like new condition and match the car very well. Tires have about 70 percent tread all around left. THERE IS ABSOLUTLEY NO RUST ON THE CAR AT ALL. This car has been stored in a heated garage and never seen rain or snow since I have owned it. The paint is a very beutiful color and it shines very well as you can see. But it has a couple very minor flaws. The interior is very clean and well taken care of. Power steering allows for easy turning of the wheel. The seats are very very comfortable. Floor mounted shifter is really ergonomic. Truck bed has a very nice cover. Not some cheaply made bed cover. The bed goes up and down with a press of a button although I disconnected it because it was draining the battery after a couple of weeks without starting her. I would put it up in car shows and it would turn heads. It has an eddelbrock carburator which cost over 300 dollars to give it a nice performance boost. Car has great sound and purrs like a v8 should. Disk brakes stop on a dime. This is a steal for the amount of truck your getting for the money. You wont find a better one for anywhere near this price. I need the space so Im looking to sell it. With summer around the corner this is the perfect time to buy. Call me or message me for more information at 847 414 3709 My name is jack. Thank you! |

Galpin Auto Sports and Fisker turn the Mustang into a Rocket in LA [w/video]
Thu, Nov 20 2014Galpin Auto Sport and Henrik Fisker made big promises about the Rocket before its debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show today, calling it the "ultimate American muscle car." Now that this 725-horsepower carbon-fiber Ford Mustang has officially been revealed, we've now got a chance to see if their vision backs up all the bluster. The Rocket is based off the latest 2015 Mustang, but the entire exterior design has been substantially reworked by Fisker. "This is a project born out of passion, it's a dream come true, to have the opportunity to 'touch' a Mustang and apply my design ideas to it," he says in the model's announcement. The biggest changes come up front, where Fisker has added a gaping hexagonal grille with a polished bar running and two nearly hidden driving lights at the top corners. Long nostrils run down each side of the hood, taking their inspiration from the 1968 Shelby GT500. The Rocket's design also emphasizes its scalloped sides, which run back to functional ducts at the rear to cool the Brembo Grand Turismo brakes. When checking out the Rocket from the rear, it's easy to spot the wider fenders that are beautifully blended into the integrated spoiler. The interior has been left mostly alone beyond some eye-grabbing red leather and carbon-fiber trim. Under the hood, Galpin spokesperson Nathan Hoyt has confirmed to Autoblog that the Rocket employs a 5.0-liter V8 with a Whipple supercharger which can be called to attention with a six-speed manual gearbox. It took only a few months for the vehicle to go from conception to reality. Fisker showed Galpin President Beau Boeckmann early sketches at this year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, and the two parties went from there. "When Henrik showed me his ideas, I got chills - it's literally the most beautiful Mustang I have ever seen," says Boeckmann in the company's release. Production is set to begin in December, with deliveries starting in early 2015. There's no set production total in mind for now, but Hoyt tells Autoblog that the price will be "just over $100,000." Scroll down to read all of the details about Fisker and Galpin's Rocket.
Ford Shelby GT350R sets 7:32.19 Nurburgring lap time
Mon, Jan 26 2015It was over a year ago that the Chevy Camaro Z/28 clocked a Nurburgring lap time of 7 minutes and 37.47 seconds, propelling itself up the leader boards as the fastest American muscle car to lap the infamous Nordschleife. But now word has it that another piece of Detroit iron has clocked an even faster time. According to Evo, the new Ford Shelby GT350R Mustang has lapped the Green Hell in a blitzkrieg 7:32.19. That's more than five seconds faster than the Z/28, and propels the GT350R into proper supercar territory: incrementally quicker than the Ferrari 458 Italia and in league with lap times posted by the Nissan GT-R (though not the fastest Godzilla has clocked over the years). With output quoted at "more than 500 horsepower and more than 400 lb-ft of torque," and no 0-60, quarter-mile or top end figures revealed to date, this marks the first genuine measure of performance we've seen for the track-focused pony car - though the numbers have yet to be officially confirmed. The GT350R packs a 5.2-liter V8 unburdened by 130 pounds of excess weight – helped along by carbon-fiber wheels coated in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber. Related Video:
Ford Mustang to get four-cylinder in Europe, but not US
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Fans of the Ford Mustang SVO, which was produced from 1884 through 1986 with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine and a manual transmission, may be interested to know that Ford is reportedly going to introduce something similar for 2015. But don't get too excited if you live in the US, as Edmunds reports that the vehicle will be offered in Europe only. Boo!
According to the report, Ford will put a version of its EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder into the engine bay of the Mustang. The engine would be enlarged from its current 2.0 liters to 2.3 liters, taking horsepower from 252 to around 300. The well-known 5.0 V8 engine will also be available in Europe.
"The Mustang is uniquely Ford and has a huge fan base here in Europe. Now those fans have something to look forward to and we look forward to providing more details in the near future," says Ford of Europe CEO Stephen Odell. That's great... but why not offer buyers in the States the (likely) fuel-efficient turbo option, too?
