Coardboard door panels, kick panels are warped from moisture. Speedometer needs calibrated. Missing a number of interior accesories. Missing tail gate."

This 1953 Ford pick-up is being sold in the condition in which I bought it. Wanted it as a project and never had time to work on it, though it was off to a good start when I got it. Chasis, suspension, wheels and brakes are all in good shape. The 305 V8 Chevy engine runs good. This is definitly a drivable vehicle and I have used it to get to work on a regular basis. The three speed automatic transmission needs some work. It makes a ticking sound in first gear, and it shifts a little hard. Fluid has leaked from the bellhousing at times.

Body work and paint job had been done by the previous owner, but over the last three years some chips and cracks have developed and there are a couple rust bubbles begining. Both driver and passenger side windows work, but the passenger side vent mirror is broken. The right side bed side panel has a small hole. (paint chips, rust, and damage seen in pics)

Bed boards have been replaced and are in good condition, but unfinished. There is no tail gate.

The interior has been repainted red. Original bench seat has been recovered in red vinyl. The cardboard door panels and kick panels are warped from moisture, but the paint underneath is good. New Dolphin gauges are set in wood and all work, but speedometer needs to be recalibrated. Most interior accesories are missing, (i.e. rearview, visors, knobs) Heater and windshield wipers are not functional. Head lights and LED tail lights work, but after a recent storm, the turning blinkers shorted out. There are some wireing issues beween the ignition switch and the starter motor and some times I have to give it a quick jump to get it started.

I like this truck a lot and love driving it around town, but like I said, I never had time to work on it. It would make a great project and, with a little work, would make a good "rat rod" style truck or even a daily driver.

additional pictures available upon request. Please feel free to email me any questions you might have.

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.

Ford F-100 'Snakebit' shown off by Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed at SEMA

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford, along with KISS bassist Gene Simmons and his wife, Shannon Tweed, used SEMA as a backdrop to pull the covers off Snakebit, a 1956 Ford F-100 pickup truck that's been updated with Shelby Mustang-derived styling bits and a 5.4-liter supercharged V8 engine. All 550 horsepower are funneled through a six-speed manual gearbox to the rear wheels.
Underneath the custom bodywork sits a chassis that's been stretched five inches and a bed widened and bedecked with billet machined pieces that are supposed to look like wood. The 20-inch rear and 18-inch front wheels ape those of past Shelby Mustang models. The interior is swathed in two-tone leather with a bench seat designed to look - try to act surprised - like a Shelby Mustang.
Like what you see? Bidding for the truck will take place in 2014 at an unspecified Barrett-Jackson event (we'd assume Scottsdale). Proceeds will be used to help build a children's hospital in Saskatoon, in the province of Saskatchewan, where Ms. Tweed grew up. See the high-res gallery above and the press release down below for more.

F-150 just the start of Ford's aluminum plans

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Not only have we been told that the 2015 Ford F-150 is tougher, more durable and up to 700 pounds lighter than the current truck, Ford COO Mark Fields said it's also "CAFE-positive." That means, for the first time in the history of corporate average fuel economy standards, the F-150 would be a positive contributor on Ford's CAFE balance sheet instead of being a vehicle it needs to counterbalance with frugal offerings.
Fields' comments made at the Detroit Auto Show were among quotes from other Ford execs that confirmed the carmaker will be using aluminum for more of its vehicles. CEO Alan Mulally said it would "proliferate across our lineup," with speculation being that we'll see it applied to crossover and sport utility models first, since they'll benefit the most. Even gaining the massive scale of using aluminum on the world's best selling vehicle for its first effort - on average, the company sells two times as many F-150s in a single day as Land Rover sells of its aluminum Range Rover in a month - Ford will be looking to further spread the cost of its five-year development investment in aluminum technology. And that should mean better handling and fuel economy for those of us who don't need to wear hardhats at the office.
