This 1940 Ford Pick Up went through an extensive frame-off restoration by some of best auto-body guys in the business. The craftsmen who worked on this frame-off build took a personal interest in building this truck the right way - the meticulous way - because this truck was built as their crown jewel, their shop truck, and it was proudly displayed in their showroom to showcase their attention to detail and absolute dedication to craftsmanship. They built this truck right - no short cuts - everything done beautifully; from the body, paint and pin striping, to the underside, interior, wood bed, and engine compartment. Even the doors shut perfectly - super tight - as they should. It’s stunning inside and out, and even underneath. It was completely dismantled and put back together with every nut and bolt cleaned or replaced, and put back together better than new, and has over $20K in just the man hours of labor alone. It was prepped to perfection prior to paint - which is Hot Rod matte black with custom flames and hand painted pin striping/detail by one of the very best in the hotrod business. All this over striking red & black new interior. Truck Features:
Call or Text me for more info: 805-236-0210 ps- for those who asked, I acquired this truck when I learned that the owner/master builder had eye surgery and was retiring from building cars. I had admired this truck in his showroom for a long while and was honored to buy it. I'm only selling it now because I have 3 kids and they all fight over who gets to ride shotgun with me to the ice cream shop. So, I sold all my two- seaters, including my 1966 Corvette 427, and decided to only own vintage cars that can fit all my kids! Note: I'll include some pics I have of the build and some spare parts that came along from the builder. If for some reason you didn't want the hand-painted letters on the doors that read, "CUMMING Auto Collision", you can easily have the letters removed, or even have a local shop re-spay the doors with Hotrod Black (I have some left-over paint that comes with the truck). Personally, I love the shop lettering, but I'm biased because I live in Cumming, GA, and everyone here knows this local shop and how great their work is. For me, it's kinda like 'bragging rights' when you drive down the road, or go to a local car show. |

Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9
Mon, 01 Apr 2013There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.
Ford bringing production F-150 to Detroit with Atlas styling and Alcoa blast shields
Fri, 27 Dec 2013According to a report in Bloomberg, the 2015 Ford F-150 will indeed be showing up at the Detroit Auto Show next month. It will bring attitude with it, not only in the form of sheetmetal inspired by the Atlas concept (pictured) that appeared at the 2013 Detroit show but also in the Alcoa military blast shields among the display being used to showcase the ruggedness of aluminum.
There's been a lot of talk about the F-150 switching to aluminum body panels (although maintaining a steel frame), and for good reason. The lightweight body is expected to shed more than 700 pounds and greatly increase its highway mileage, but production-line issues and possible delays have been a major focus of attention concerning the best-selling vehicle in America for 32 years, meaning Ford has to get it right. F-150 is responsible for a massive portion of the company's global profits and it will come in a year when company profits are already predicted to decline because of new car launches.
When it comes to dings, the Bloomberg story says Ford wants Alcoa to supply some of the military-grade aluminum it uses for blast shields on battlefield vehicles to help it talk up the toughness of aluminum. Reading commentary on the many stories about the F-150 reveals there are many more little questions about the aluminum overhaul, like "How much will it cost to repair and insure?" and "How will companies hang their magnetic signs?" Answers should start coming in a couple of weeks.
Ford Focus refresh shots leak ahead of Geneva
Sun, 23 Feb 2014In case you haven't been paying attention, Ford has been gradually redesigning its lineup to sport a familiar face. The Aston Martin-inspired grille shape debuted on the Fusion and was soon applied to the Fiesta. Even the front end of the new Mustang takes its cues from the same, and we're sure other models will soon be made-over to fall in line. The next on the docket? The Focus.
Set to be unveiled in little over a week at the Geneva Motor Show, the revised Focus has leaked out a tad early, revealing a mild facelift that bears that same trapezoidal grille with horizontal slats. Along with the new grille, the headlights, lower fascia and hood appear to have been reshaped. Around back there appears to be a new rear bumper and taillights, but otherwise the shape remains largely the same as the current model.
Expect the updates to be applied to all bodystyles offered around the world, including the hatchback, wagon and sedan. The engine lineup is expected to carry over largely unchanged, though the plug-in hybrid powertrain from the C-Max Energi could port over to the revised Focus. Plus Ford seems to have taken the opportunity to spruce things up in the cabin some. Check it out in the image gallery above and watch this space for the official announcement as we pack our bags for Switzerland.
