1952 Ford F1 Pick Up Truck

This truck has been family owned since the 1970's. It had been used mostly as a farm truck, been well take care of and was not used a great deal. It was passed down through the family over the years and was eventually left to the previous owner by his uncle who sadly passed a while back. He then only used it occasionally and over the 3 or so years he owned it he resprayed it satin black and also re-did the bed. 

Since I have owned the truck I have taken it to several classic car shows in the Chicago Land area. It always receives a lot of attention and always gets the thumbs up while driving it around.

The following has been installed new
  • distributor cap
  • rotor arm
  • condenser
  • breaker points
  • spark plugs
  • new spark plug wire set  
I have set the timing and she starts and runs strong and idles like a sewing machine. 

Also new 
  • 2 new Cherry Bomb mufflers
  • glass in passenger doors and back window - you may notice the drivers door glass has since cracked (easy fix though)
  • rear lights
  • battery is quite new
  • the bed was re-done early this year
As you can see from the pictures apart from the fantastic satin black spray job it is all pretty much original. The truck was once red and inside the cab it still shows that color. It still has the original Ford Flat head V8 engine and the transmission is the original manual shift three on a tree. 
It is also still running the original 6 volt electrics with all the exterior lights, indicators, horn and dash gauges working great. (no dash lights working though)

  • Transmission/clutch shifts good 
  • Brakes work good
  • Handbrake works good
  • Runs cool 
  • Steering is tight (not sloppy)
  • No oil or water leaks
  • No rips or tears in seats (couple of small holes in door panels)
The tyres are bias ply wide white walls with plenty of tread but do show some age. Also included is a spare wheel with the same size and condition white wall too.

This truck is SOLID and has only surface rust underneath. The previous owner did cut out rust and weld plates in the cab corners and did a nice job so no problems there. The body is straight as an arrow, NO dents, No holes or dings. There is however, a small amount of rust holes, just inside the drivers side cab on the floor near the door and also small holes at the bottom of both doors....these are minor repairs though! (shown in pics)
The drivers side window does not go up and down very well and I think the lift inside the door will need replacing (it does stay closed once up though. The glass in that door is also cracked. Both doors open, shut and lock fine.

Overall this is a nice running and driving clean truck that starts first time and gets A LOT of attention on the road and at shows. It would be an excellent candidate for a full restoration or just drive and enjoy as is. 

My garage is full hence the reluctant sale of this fantastic 52 Ford F1.

I can work with your shipper if needed - Inspections welcome.

2015 Ford Mustang specs revealed, GT to pack 435 HP

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

The 2015 Ford Mustang sounds great so far - at least on paper. Ford has just announced specs for the latest version of the iconic pony car in Dearborn, telling Autoblog that it will pump out as much as 435 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque from its 5.0-liter V8.
Those gaudy figures power the naturally aspirated GT model, and they easily eclipse the "more than" 420 hp and 390 lb-ft that Ford originally estimated.
The 2.3-liter turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder makes 310 hp and 320 lb-ft, and it's the first turbo Mustang since the 1986 SVO.

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.

2015 Ford F-150 [w/videos]

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

To learn more about the all-new 2015 F-150 and get an early read on its potential hero-or-zero status, we flew to the heart of full-size pickup truck country, San Antonio, TX, to spend a day driving, towing and playing in the mud with an assortment of Ford's innovative new trucks.
First, a caveat - while we feel we have a reasonably good handle on the new F-150 after attending this first-drive event, we are far from ready to pass definitive judgment on the success of this radically new rig. Our time in the various models was lamentably limited and we felt rushed. With so much at stake and with so much to talk about and experience, we had zero alone time with the vehicle - there were Ford folks shadowing us at every moment.
And we still don't know everything there is to know about the trucks, as Ford is withholding some of its most crucial numbers, including curb weight data and anticipated EPA fuel economy figures. We don't even have a firm on-sale date. All of this information is typically disclosed - or at least officially estimated - at the time of a new vehicle's first drive. This limits the scope of the judgments we feel comfortable making based on our first encounter.
