1954 Ford F250

Truck had complete frame-off restoration about 15 years ago. Frame was coated with POR 15, has new wiring, Ford 302 ci V-8 from a 1970 Torino. Motor has an Edelbrock intake and 4bbl carburetor, Accel HEI ignition and chrome 1 wire alternator. The C 6 automatic transmission and the Dana rear end came out of a 1981 Ford truck which allows the truck to cruise at speed on the Interstate. Have driven it over to Cruisin the Coast the last two years.

The rest of the truck is original including the heater, radio and Fomoco spotlight. The truck has PPG basecoat/clearcoat in original Torch Red and Raven Black. The odometer shows a little over 59,000 miles which due to the history of the truck is believed to be original mileage. The truck was originally purchased by New Orleans Charity Hospital and had been on blocks since the early 70's before I purchased it and restored it. A little interesting note, the truck came from Bolton Ford dealership in New Orleans. Bolton Ford is the dealership that was visited by the FBI shortly after the JFK assassination because somebody claiming to be Lee Harvey Oswald went to the dealership to purchase some trucks for the "Free Cuba" movement a few months before the assassintion.

Anyway, the truck is a great example of an F250; most of these trucks did not survive their youth due to the heavy use they were put through. It has an 8 foot bed finished in Red Oak with White Oak used on the side stakes (which can be removed). The truck runs well, but it is an older restoration. This is a driver and not a show truck. It is great to drive to cruise-ins or to the local Home Depot. This is a solid, heavy duty steel truck with no filler and no fiberglass parts. Original 16 inch rims with fairly new tires.

Truck is sold as is with no warranties expressed or implied. Feel free to ask questions and they will be answered. Low reserve well below true value.

Ford shutters Genk assembly plant in Belgium

Tue, Dec 23 2014

Ford has become the latest automaker to close one of its European assembly plants. The facility in question is located in the Belgian city of Genk and has been in operation since the early '60s when it started building the Taunus, Ford's first mass-produced, front-drive model. As part of the plan first announced over two years ago, the Genk Body & Assembly Plant is now closing its doors after half a century in the business and over fourteen million vehicles built. Although the plant itself employed some 5,000 workers, once you take into account the suppliers built up around the plant, the overall impact on employment in the area edges closer to 12,000. Genk Body & Assembly had until recently been tasked with producing the Mondeo sedan (which in its current iteration we know as the Fusion) as well as the S-Max and Galaxy minivans. Production of the Mondeo shifted in 2013 to the company's plant in Valencia, Spain, which also handles the Kuga crossover and Transit Connect cargo van, and will soon take over the minivans from Genk as well. The move follows a similar decision undertaken by General Motors to close the Opelwerk plant in Bochum, Germany. It also reflects a scaling down of automobile production in Belgium specifically: although Audi still manufacturers in Brussels and and Volvo in Ghent, Opel closed its plant in Antwerp in 2000 and Renault ceased production in Vilvoorde back in '97. However Ford still maintains its famous proving ground half an hour to the north in Lommel, Belgium.
