This is a relisting of my nice 1949 Ford F-1 short wheel base Truck. If you do not plan on paying, or you think you are going to try to scam me out of my bank info, don't waste my time and yours. This truck has nice paint and interior, but not perfect. It powered by a Chevrolet 307, Edelbrock carb, radiator has been flushed and pressure tested and is full of antifreeze. It has a transmission cooler, 9 inch rear, runs quiet, drives good. It starts right up and turns heads every where I go. It has all new brakes, wheel cylinders, master cylinder and new lines. Power windows, power steering, with a tilt and telescopic steering wheel. It rolls on newer Ford rims and tires. The muffler is old and rusty and could use a new one, but still runs quiet. Solid cab with clean cab corners. All the lights are new and work. The gauges are after market and are located in the dash. At idle the oil is at 35, the volts are at 14, and the temp reads 180. The fuel gauge is new but it is stuck on full, it probably needs a new sending unit. The wipers are the old vacuum style, the motor works but I have no arms for them. It has the original heater and it works. The motor and tranny have no leaks. The windows are electric, go up and down and the controls are located in the center of the dash. The horn is a ah-ooga horn and the button is located under the dash. It has a older Super Tuner radio with Kenwood speakers and they work. Nice looking interior with black carpet, door panels and headliner. Low reserve don't let this one get away.

Question

.........looks good !..........been looking for this vintage for over a year.........what I have settled on is a basically unmolested 48 - 50 and "daily driver " quality...........does this fit the bill ?.........I have this belief, which at times has proven costly to believe what I am told..........so please be honest ! Thanks !

Answer

This truck is not unmolested, but it has been altered in a good way. They did not come with tilt telescopic steering, power windows, transmission coolers. or Chevrolet powered. The motor is stock and quiet. It is not a race truck.
I drove it yesterday to work and around town ( 50 miles). It is not my daily driver but it could be. I have 3 trucks and 2 cars. I do not really have a daily driver per say. My wife wants a muscle car and there is only 2 of us so something has to go. I would like to keep it. It was tough deciding what to get rid of. I included a pic of my other 2 trucks, and no the 41 is not for sale.

Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort

Fri, 24 May 2013

Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.

Ford F-150 EcoBoost in NHTSA probe for acceleration issue

Tue, 28 May 2013

According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching a probe into 400,000 Ford F-150 models over possible acceleration problems. According to the article, NHTSA has received 95 reports "alleging incidents of reduced engine power during hard accelerations" on 2011 to 2013 F-150 models equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
Automotive News reports that Ford has issued three technical service bulletins "related to intermittent stumble/misfire on acceleration from highway cruise in humid or damp conditions," according to the government agency's documents. About one third of the 95 reports NHTSA has received cited humid or rainy conditions when these problems allegedly occurred.
These technical service bulletins have allowed dealers to address a "condition related to moisture accumulation in the charge air cooler during extended highway cruising at constant throttle in humid or damp conditions," AN reports, citing NHTSA documents. Furthermore, the TSB outlines details for "reprogramming the powertrain control module with the latest calibration and installing a new CAC and air deflector plate."

Ford builds two-millionth EcoBoost engine

Tue, 17 Sep 2013

Ford's EcoBoost engine lineup is only four years old, but it is growing into an important and popular global engine. As proof of its popularity, Ford just produced its 2 millionth EcoBoost engine - a 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder - which rolled off the assembly line in Louisville, Kentucky under the hood of an Escape.
Ford now offers five EcoBoost engines around the world ranging from the 1.0-liter inline-three to the twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6, and the automaker is expanding production of two of its engine lines to keep up with demand. Earlier this year, Ford announced that the 2.0-liter EcoBoost would be built in Cleveland, Ohio starting in 2014 and, more recently, Ford said that it will be doubling production of the 1.0-liter EcoBoost in Germany. That turbo-three will also be produced in China at a new Ford engine plant in Chongqing.
