1954 Ford F-100 Custom
Up for sale is my 1954 F-100 resto-mod pickup.The truck went through an extensive restoration about a year ago. It has a 4.6 L fuel injected V8, automatic with overdrive transmission, 4 wheel power disc brakes, cruise control, tilt wheel steering column, and yes even power seats. All of the modern components were donated from a '97 Mercury Marquis (Ford crown vic) with around 60K on it. The body is all steel and is nearly all new including the hood, fenders, bed, roll pan, and running boards. The glass is all new, one piece windows were installed in the doors, all new chrome and stainless, new flowmaster custom exhuast, wheels and tires, and all rubber components were replaced. I have put a few hundred miles on it since complete and used it in my sisters recent wedding. It starts right up and runs great. The ride is very nice in comparison to some of the stock restoration I have done. The rear end is still a bit stiff but you cant take all of the truck out of it. The front end handles well with its independent front suspension and rack and pinion steering. You will be sure to get plenty of looks in this pickup, and if the custom paint scheme doesnt do it the growl as you pass everyone will definetley turn all of their attention to you. All of the trucks electrical works great. The turn signals are operasted from the steering column as they were in the merc. Also the truck has fully functional cruise control operated from the steering wheel. The original blower is powered with its original switch and works. It is defrost only. The seats are power out of a newer lexus suv. The door panels and console were custom made by a local upholstery shop. All of the exterior harware, chains, door handles, grille, bumpers, etc. have been replaced with either stainless or chrome. This is a very nice driver quality restoration that would have its place at any local show. The wheels and tires have only 300 miles on them. Overall a great truck that you can actually drive. Please contact me with questions or requests for additional pictures. 765-376-3486

Ford paying $750 million just to close plant in Belgium
Thu, 21 Mar 2013According to a report from Reuters, Ford is shelling out $750 million in a severance deal that will see the automaker close its facility in Genk, Belgium. The automaker reached this deal with the 4,000 hourly workers employed at the plant last week, which means the company will pay out an average of $187,500 per worker.
Ford is still negotiating with the 300 salaried workers at the factory, which currently produces the Mondeo sedan. All told, Ford expects to lose around $2 billion in Europe thanks in no small part to the region's ongoing economic downturn, and two more plants are scheduled to be shut down in Europe this year. The company will log its $750 million payout under "special items" for this quarter.
As you may recall, Ford took a similar path in the US back in 2009 when the domestic market took a spill. Back then, the company shelled out around $50,000 per employee with at least one year of experience, plus either $25,000 toward a new car or an extra cash payment of $20,000. It would seem the cost of closing plants in Belgium is a much harder pill to swallow than in the States...
Car-crazy 5-year-old boy writes automakers for treasures, gets big response
Fri, Jan 25 2019Part of the beauty of children is that they can find worth in something adults might deem unworthy or overlook entirely. Five-year-old Patch Hurty didn't see garbage or a broken piece of a car when he spotted a Ford badge lying on the side of a road. He saw an artifact, a souvenir, a start to a collection he could only dream of. Ezra Dyer of Popular Mechanics tells the story of Patch and his quest to turn that one lost badge into a museum of manufacturer logos. According to the article, Hurty is a car fanatic through and through, even using car names as a way of learning to read. After finding the Ford badge near his Connecticut home, he and his mom put together a plan to reach out to dozens of automakers, confessing his love of things on four wheels. In each letter, Patch assembled a picture of himself standing next to one of the cars, and a penny to pay for whatever he hoped was sent his way. The response was unexpectedly and overwhelmingly positive. Of the more than 50 letters he sent out, including to obscure or defunct companies such as Bugatti, Suzuki, and Saturn, a majority responded with warm notes and some type of souvenir. Two of the coolest responses came from Lincoln and Bentley. Lincoln sent a sketch of a Continental (all car lovers enjoy drawing cars, right?), and Bentley sent a wheel center cap. How awesome is that? The story reminds us of something that can easily be lost in all of the negativity involved with the auto industry: Everybody is in this because of a common infatuation with automobiles. For more details on the souvenirs Patch received and accompanying photos, read the rest of the story.

You can now order Domino's pizza from your Sync-equipped Ford
Tue, 07 Jan 2014
The news keeps pouring in from the Consumer Electronics Show now underway in Las Vegas, and the latest comes from Ford which has announced two new apps for its Sync AppLink system.
First up is a cooperative app launched by Ford together with Domino's Pizza that lets drivers of the former order pizza from the latter right from their car. The service allows those with Ford Sync AppLink in their car or truck and are registered with a Domino's Pizza Profile to place an order for their favorite pie using Dearborn's voice-recognition software for either pickup or delivery. Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.
