1966 Ford F250 Camper Special Custom Cab customized shop truck. Original paint on this solid and straight old truck. Equipped with independent front suspension, power steering, power 12" disc breaks and a massive front sway bar thanks to a 1994 Chevrolet Cop Car. The rear end and 700r4 overdrive automatic transmission are also from this donor car. Motor is a good sound 1975 Cadillac 500 with rear sump pan from an Eldorado. This makes the truck drive, corner, handle and stop just like the Caprice Cop Car that donated the parts. The torque monster Cad motor coupled to 700r4 makes for lots of tire smoke and great cruising. Pretty good fuel mileage as well. I put this truck together about 4 years ago and have driven it over 15,000 trouble free miles. Never given me any trouble what so ever. Starts right up even when it was 15 degrees this past winter. Lots of new parts when built. New windshield and gasket, breaks all around. New radiator, hosed and heater hosed. Flushed the gas tank and new fuel lines and fuel pump. New dual exhaust system with glass packs and exit just in front of the rear wheels. New P235/60r15 on new torque thrust polished wheels on front. New P295/50R15 on torque thrust polishes wheels on rear. Front rims are 8" wide and rear are 9". Rear rubber is 10" wide at the thread. The Cad motor will still smoke the tires for 2 blocks if you want. Equipped with a line lock and a B&M torque converter lock up. All the glass is good and wing vents and windows roll up and down as they should. Doors and tail gate all close nice and fit good. All gauges work along with the dome light, horn, door locks and turn signals. Auxiliary fuel tanks in the box have been converted to lockable storage boxes and they work great when filled with ice for cold drinks. They have drain holes in the bottoms. This truck needs nothing. It's ready to go anywhere in the U.S. New seat, door panels, headliner and door pulls. Look at the floor rubber. It is original and still in great shape. I am sure that I am forgetting something's but that pretty much describes the truck. I would be glad to answer any question that you might have. Feel free to come drive this truck. I can be reached at 509-684-5723. If you need more pictures, just ask. I own a small rod shop here in Colville and have done 4 other similar trucks for local customers and have had no complaints. Just finished a 65 short box for my new shop truck so Rusty is for sale. Willing to work with the new owner as far as shipping goes. Short term storage is something we can talk about.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...

Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod

Tue, 21 Oct 2014

Woodie wagons were a major part of surfing culture in the 1960s, offering coastal style and a ton of room, and they even earned a mention in the Beach Boys' classic song Surfin' Safari. This week, Jay Leno's Garage takes a look at two modern, restomodded examples of these style icons.
Unlike a lot of restomods, builder Scott Bonowski keeps these wagons looking almost completely stock on the outside, and all of the upgrades are hidden underneath the timber. You can't tell by looking at it, but the '37 Woodie (pictured above) has independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes and a Ford 5.0-liter V8 under the hood.
Beyond the mechanical aspect, the craftsmanship into the wood is astounding. Bonowski claims there are between 30 and 50 coats of varnish on this wagon. It makes these woodies as much of a piece of fine furniture as a vehicle to drive.

Ford expands door-latch recall to 156k more vehicles, nearly 550k total

Fri, May 1 2015

Ford is being inundated with recalls as of late. Just days ago it called in over 590,000 cars for a variety of issues. Now, the Blue Oval has announced an expansion of its door latch campaign to cover an additional 156,000 vehicles in North America. Counting the original 389,585 cars, this has brought the total to 545,906. Under this expansion, the same models are affected, but Ford is broadening the coverage dates in some cases. The recall covers the 2011-2014 Fiesta, 2013-2014 Fusion, and 2013-2014 Lincoln MKZ; there are 456,440 units in the US, 50,681 in Canada, and 38,785 in Mexico in need of repair. In these vehicles, a door might not latch because of a broken pawl spring tab. Even if a passenger can successfully close it, the faulty part could unlatch while driving. According to Ford, there are two allegations of doors bounding back and hitting a person. There's also one possible accident from a door opening and striking another vehicle. Dealers will replace all of the latches to fix the problem. Related Video: MAY 1, 2015 | DEARBORN, MICH. FORD EXPANDS DOOR LATCH SAFETY RECALL IN NORTH AMERICA DEARBORN, Mich., May 1, 2015 – Ford Motor Company is expanding a safety recall regarding door latches to include approximately 156,000 more vehicles at the request of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, bringing the total to 545,906 vehicles in North America. The door latch in certain vehicles may experience a broken pawl spring tab, which typically results in a condition where the door will not latch. If a customer is then able to latch the door, there is a potential the door may unlatch while driving, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is aware of a total two allegations of soreness resulting from an unlatched door bouncing back when the customer attempted to close it, and one accident allegation when an unlatched door swung open and struck the adjacent vehicle as the driver was pulling into a parking space. Affected vehicles include certain 2011-14 Fiesta vehicles built at Cuautitlan Assembly Plant, Nov. 3, 2009 to May 31, 2013; certain 2013-14 Fusion vehicles built at Hermosillo Assembly Plant, Feb. 1, 2012 to May 31, 2013; certain 2014 Fusion vehicles built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant, April 12, 2013 to April 26, 2013; and certain 2013-14 Lincoln MKZ vehicles built at Hermosillo Assembly Plant, Feb. 1, 2012 to May 31, 2013. There are 456,440 vehicles in the United States and federalized territories, 50,681 in Canada and 38,785 in Mexico.
