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.

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.

Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
2015 Ford Mustang vs. Camaro and Challenger [w/poll]
Thu, 17 Jul 2014The horsepower wars are tightening among the Detroit Three, as the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger are getting bigger, more powerful, and yes, more fuel efficient.
That came into sharper focus this week as more information was revealed about the most insane Challenger ever - the 707-horsepower Hellcat - followed quickly by Ford's in-depth showcase of the 2015 Mustang in Dearborn.
It's shaping up to be a golden age for enthusiasts, and what's under the hood is becoming more important than ever.
