This is the first time this Ford F1 has been for sale since purchased from the dealer in 1951.

Single family owned since Grandpa bought it new. Powered by a flat head V-8 and mated with a 3 speed manual transmission on the floor . I love the flat heads because they are so quite and last for ever. Miles listed is what is shown on new gauges, True miles unknown, not advertising 19,xxx original miles.
This is a rust free truck with a great body. All original except the running boards were replaced.

All new interior. Original bench seat, reworked and finished in high quality leather. New gauges compete with turn signal indicators. Head lights, Brake lights, Turn signals all work and ready to go. Wipers are new and work as well. Please be aware that while the wipers work, I did not put in the washer fluid bag and pump. I figure this truck is not going to be taken out in the rain and mud.

Originally came with a AM Radio, The dash has never been cut. I put in a radio delete plate and put in a sound system that is hidden in the glove box. Just hook up your phone or tablet and enjoy the tunes. Speakers and unit have been mounted securely in the card board trim, no metal was screwed or cut.

Original wheels with center caps and nice tires. The wooden bed is in new condition and really take this truck up a big notch. The pictures and video was taken prior to the spare wheel was mounted underneath the bed. Red painted steel wheel with a new tire mounted. I have a couple pictures on my zenfolio page.  

All the chrome is bright and without pits or age issues. The glass is good and the seals are new.   Over 90 photos of the truck including under body and frame can be found here: sunvalleyautosales.zenfolio.com/1951fordf100  *(COPY AND PASTE IN A NEW BROWSER)

A couple points on the photos.   I added the wood side boards so not all the photos are shown with them.   They come with the truck and are not drilled into the bed, so use them or not.   I love the look but it's a personal choice, just a added bonus.  

Engine has been rebuilt and runs quite and smooth with no smoking. Transmission is a three speed H pattern on the floor. This truck is a pleasure to view and a complete blast to drive! Ready to go to show or around the back roads.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."

Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell revisit bitter F1 rivalry in... Ford Fusion campaign?

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Formula One World Champions Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell haven't been on good terms since the 1986 season, when Piquet joined Mansell at the Williams team and Piquet spent the year privately fuming about not being granted the status of number one driver. Things only got worse from there - even though Piquet won the title the following year with Williams, still partnered with Mansell, the fuming was a lot less private.
They're back together after a 25-year silence, in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil to drive the new Ford Fusion. Called "Fusion Grand Prix," both men get the new Ford sedan, prepped to their liking - but still street legal, we assume - for a race to decide... well, who is faster behind the wheel of a Fusion.
There will be four episodes, with the first two having already aired. The third episode comes on January 29 and the race happens February 5. You'll find two video episodes and a press release below, but note - because it's a campaign for Ford Brazil, Piquet's dialogue in the vids isn't translated, so hit the Closed Captioning button to hear his side of the smack talking.

Ford making Fusion production moves to challenge Camry on volume

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

The Ford Fusion may already beat the Toyota Camry in terms of models offered, transaction price and sales increase so far this year, but if the Fusion wants to make a run at the title of best-selling car in the US, Bloomberg reminds us that volume is key. Opening a second production line at the Flat Rock, MI assembly plant will reportedly allow Ford to produce around 350,000 Fusions annually, which compares Toyota's ability to crank out 475,000 Camrys and Honda's capacity to build around 450,000 Accords.
For the Fusion, that's an extra 100,000 units compared to the car's current pace, and the article adds that the Fusion is "Ford's best shot" to regain the passenger car sales crown - a title it (or any other US automaker, for that matter) hasn't held since the mid-1990s. Despite hiccups with recalls and fuel economy numbers, the Ford Fusion is still red hot when it comes to sales. Fusion sales are up 13 percent so far this year (compared to a 0.6 percent decrease for Camry), and its average transaction price of $26,343 is about $2,300 more than its rival from Toyota.
The Fusion's popularity has helped Ford improve its sales in California; the Dearborn-based automaker has a market share of 18 percent in the state, which is just a fraction of a percentage behind Honda. And this popularity should continue as Ford ups Fusion production and expands the model lineup even further for 2014 with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine soon to become an option.
