1956 Ford F-100 on 2040-cars
Outlook, Washington, United States
1956 Ford F100 Pick Up.
Body/Paint: The body has all original steel with exception to the rear fenders, which are fiberglass, which are a little wider than stock. The body is in excellent condition. The only alterations to the body from stock is the dash with some slight custom work done as well as how the hood mounts, which is the slide type that works as it should. Also the tail gate has been smoothed. The paint is Sherwin Williams Hot Rod Red that looks excellent with a few repaired chips on the front of the truck. Ghost flames on front hood and fenders blending into the door using pearl. The build looks like only a couple of years old.
Interior: The interior is grey cloth and is super clean like the whole truck. Customized dash with VDO gauges. Speedo, tach, fuel (15 gallon), volt, oil pressure and temp. Stereo multiple CD player stored under seat with electric antenna. GM tilt with LaCarra steering wheel. Cold AC.
Running Gear: 454/500HP Chevrolet big block. 30 over with hardened internals, roller cam, Keith Black pistons, cast iron heads, Weind aluminum intake manifold, 850 cfm double pumper Demon carb, HEI ignition with manual fan. HD aluminum radiator. Runs cool. Lots of polished aluminum and chrome. TH 400 totally rebuilt with shift kit and 2500 stall. Custom driveline. The rear end is an 88 Corvette with 373 gears, posi. Power steering and brakes.
Suspension: The front end is a Valarie clip welded to the stock frame with a Corvette rear independent suspension. This is the reason fiberglass rear fenders were used to accommodate the width of the rear end as well as the tire size. Even though the fenders are wider they look stock with correct dimensions.
Bright work: Restored with stainless front and rear bumpers in very good condition and shows well.
Glass: Rear glass is original in very good condition with windshield and side windows replaced.
Exhaust: Stock exhaust manifolds with 2 ½ inch pipes with turbo style mufflers. Sounds awesome.
Brakes: 4 wheel disc brakes. Front brakes are Plymouth with rears Corvette.
Wheels/Tires: The wheels are Billet Specialties strip style with Toyo Proxies tires with only 3K miles. The fronts are 235/45 ZR 17. Rears are 275/35 ZR 18.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp
Mon, 17 Nov 2014
Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.
Muscle wins big at 2013 Amelia Island Concours as 1936 Duesenberg, 1968 Ford GT40 take top honors
Wed, 13 Mar 2013The 18th-annual Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance took place this past weekend, and in one of the show's biggest years yet (bringing in more than 25,000 spectators and attracting more than 300 vehicles), two powerhouses ended up winning the judges' hearts. The top Concours d'Elegance award went to a 1936 Duesenberg SJN, while the Concours de Sport went to one of the celebrated marques, a 1968 Ford GT40.
Owned by Helen and Jack Nethercutt of Sylmar, CA, this flawless Duesy is described as "one of the most powerful open cars of the 1930s," and it displays design cues of the era like rolled fenders and a tapered rear end. The SJN's supercharged straight-eight allowed it to accelerate to 100 miles per hour in just 17 seconds - surely not a disappointing feat for its day.
On a much different level of performance and timelessness, this Gulf-livery GT40 from the Rocky Mountain Auto Collection is not outdone by the elegance of the big Duesenberg thanks to some well-documented racing history. This not only includes winning at LeMans in both 1968 and 1969 - Chassis No. 1075 also managed to win a total of six times in just 11 races.
More evidence GT500-replacement will be named GT350
Tue, 17 Dec 2013During the recent unveiling of the 2015 Ford Mustang, we saw the car in both V6 and GT form, but we'll have to wait a little bit longer to see the successor to the Shelby GT500. In the meantime, though, it looks like SVTPerformance.com has confirmed reports that this high-performance model will bring the Shelby GT350 name back to Ford.
According to the forum post, a user found the Shelby GT350 name on a Ford promo website listing its 2015 lineup. The Shelby GT350 name was first used on a Mustang back in 1965, and most recently it has been a model created for customers as a post-title purchase by Shelby American. As for that car, Shelby confirmed earlier in the year that its GT350 would be phased out at the end of this month.
The million-dollar question for Mustang and Shelby enthusiasts is when we'll see next factory Shelby GT350. Last we heard it was planned for a debut at the New York Auto Show. We've included our previous spy shots of this hi-po, sixth-gen Mustang, and we've also captured it on spy video showing off its exhaust note.
