1949 Ford F1 Rat Rod Short Bed Ratrod Truck Pickup 49 F100 Fink Suicide Doors on 2040-cars
Bassett, Virginia, United States
What is it? That's what you will always hear while sporting this jewel around. The answer to that question is "Its a Ratrod". Its title as a 49 Ford F1. The cab and bed are 49 Ford as the front end is a 50's era GMC. The body is sitting on a 93 S10 frame so it does have power steering and power brakes. Also as the complete running gear out of the S10 with a 2.5 automatic. It runs smoothly down the road at 75mph easily. It handles great and rides smooth. Drive it anywhere you want to go. This ratrod does have suicide doors. Its very unique and it gets compliments everywhere it goes. Don't drive this if your in a hurry because everyone wants to stop and talk about it and again be prepared to answer the "what is it question". The interior is unique as well while keeping the ratrod theme. It has a new one piece windshield, the hood is a split hood so it can be opened from the driver side or passenger side, one pic shows the dragon fly spark plug that's on the drivers fender and the rat fink hood emblem. It has a cd player, air horns, all the gauges work and light up, has LED tail lights, headlights work as well. I hate selling this ratrod but Im selling several of my toys for a family home project (swimming pool). Good luck to all bidders and if you have any questions just ask. I can deliver to the east coast region but that must be discussed before the auction ends.

Ford shows off V8-powered Ranger headed to Dakar Rally
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Avert your eyes now if you're jealous that the global version of the Ford Ranger is not offered in the US. Ford's midsize pickup is being tuned up to take on the 2014 Dakar Rally, and the result is a truck that is probably even cooler than any F-150 SVT Raptor we've ever seen in the States. Ford is actually building two versions of the truck for Dakar, which will run from January 5 through January 18, covering more than 5,000 miles from Argentina to Chile.
Starting with a fully composite body and a 5.0-liter V8 plucked from a Mustang, nearly every aspect of the trucks have been purpose built to take on the grueling race. This includes things like the six-speed sequential gearbox, liquid-cooled rear brakes and the 132-gallon fuel tank. As proof that Dakar is more about endurance than speed, the engines used in these race trucks will be limited to around 350 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, and will max out at a top speed of just 105 miles per hour. Scroll down for Ford's official press release offering more information about the trucks and teams being prepped for Dakar.
Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer. If you'd like to check if your vehicle is affected, click on the safety recalls link on Ford.com and enter your VIN. Related Video:
2015 Ford Mustang production to begin on July 14? Not quite, says Ford
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Mustang6g.com believes that it has unlocked start date for 2015 Ford Mustang production citing a Ford dealer communiqué. According to the report, job one on the 2015 hardtop will allegedly start in just a few days, on July 14, although units that are known as "OK to Buy" won't enter production until September 9. The cars built between those dates are most likely final pre-production cars for the executive test fleet, and will likely include the cars we'll be driving at the media launch.
Sun worshippers, meanwhile, would seem to have a longer wait. Job one on the droptop supposedly isn't slated to start until September 14, with production models starting on October 27. As is the case with the hardtop, these final pre-pros are for the execs and media to test, while actual dealer orders will come from vehicles made after the October date.
After speaking to Ford, though, we wouldn't put a great deal of stock in those dates as reported. We reached out to Said Deep, Ford's North American Product Communications Manager.
