55 Ford F100 Truck With Incredible Patina - Original Rolling Chassis on 2040-cars

Year:1955 Mileage:0
Location:

Fayetteville, Georgia, United States

Fayetteville, Georgia, United States

Incredible Rat Rod just waiting to happen - I picked this 1955 f100 up about a year ago with plans to make a great rat rod out of it, but have too many projects to tackle this one right now and I hate to see it go to waste.  Truck was white, but previous owner stripped it to the metal to allow it to 'age', then got tired of it and sold it.

Truck has no motor or transmission, no seat or interior.  Has original spring front end and 9" rear end.  Frame appears to be in good shape, cab has typical rust: rockers, cab floor and cab corners.  I have new sheet metal for the cab corners and rockers, but not the floor.  Cab floor has been covered with fiberglass at some point in the past...my plan was to replace the floor completely along with the rockers.  Doors have rust in the bottoms.  I believe most, if not all, of the door glass, window operators, headlights and grille components are in the cab of the truck.  What you see in the photos is how I purchased the truck, I have not touched it since bringing it home.  Inner fenders are in good shape, as is firewall metal.  Original steering wheel and manual column are in tact, as are pedals.

Truck has a ton of possibilities, I would love to see this go to someone who wants to tackle a big, but worthwhile, project.

 

Title is listed as 'clear' because ebay has limited options...Truck is sold with Bill of Sale from State of Georgia, which does not require vehicles of this age to be titled.


$500.00 deposit is due upon winning auction, balance due at, or before, pick up.  Don't bid if you don't want to buy. No warranties or guarantees.  I will not ship or deliver, but will be happy to help you coordinate delivery of the truck.

The 2015 Ford Mustang is not so mellow in yellow

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

When we first saw the 2015 Ford Mustang, much was made of its new, more expressive color palette, which includes the return of both yellow and orange in addition to a new grayish shade, Guard. At that time, we didn't have anything to look at but a few small scale models painted in the new colors - the only Mustangs on display were in Race Red.
For its auto show debut here at in the Motor City, Ford has trotted out a couple of as-yet-unseen shades, including the striking Triple Yellow shown above. The new shade marks a return to a paint color that enthusiasts have been clamoring for, and we must say, it looks excellent under the lights of Cobo Hall.
Stat wise, there are still a number of questions we have about the redesigned Mustang. None of the three engines have had official power figures published. The same goes for pricing information, although if any loose-lipped execs let something slip in Detroit, we'll be sure to let you know. Until then, have a look at the new Triple Yellow Mustang on display at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.

Ford dinged by OSHA for asbestos at Buffalo plant

Sat, 20 Jul 2013

Ford has come under fire from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for violations regarding asbestos exposure in a company metal stamping plant in Buffalo, NY. OSHA has cited Ford for eight violations in total, according to an Automotive News report, and faces fines of up to $41,800. 537 workers are employed at the stamping facility.
The violations include a pipefitter at the facility being exposed to asbestos-containing material while working on a steam line, other workers exposed to the material without respiratory protection and work areas that were not designed to limited the number of workers in contact with asbestos. Further, areas in which asbestos was present were not properly restricted, and levels of asbestos in the air were not monitored.
According to an unnamed Ford spokesperson in the AN report, the company feels that the OSHA citation is erroneous saying, "We have fully cooperated with the local OSHA officials and we don't believe the citations are warranted." Ford also maintains that it will work with the authorities to resolve the issue.

Ford F-150 SVT Raptor sales jumping to new heights

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Ford can't seem to build F-150 SVT Raptors fast enough. The off-road-ready trucks have been one of the Blue Oval's most reliable sellers, with record sales in eight of the last 10 months and a 14-percent jump in 2013. That's impressive enough, considering that the least expensive Raptor starts at $44,000. Factor in the modded F-150's fuel economy (it's rated at 11 miles per gallon in the city and 16 on the highway) and a national average gas price, as of this writing, of $3.55 per gallon, and its success is as unlikely as Ford's home team, the Detroit Lions, winning the Super Bowl this year (sorry, Lions fans, we're just quoting the experts in Vegas...).
Yet for some reason, Raptors spend an average of just 15 days on dealer lots before being snapped up, which is a quarter of the 60-day industry average. According to Ford's truck group marketing manager, Doug Scott, it's capability that keeps the Raptor selling strong. "What's helping drive Raptor sales is that Raptor delivers unmatched off-road performance to our customers. Raptor is also proof of our commitment to offer a truck for every customer and continuously improving them to meet our customers' evolving needs."
To address the strong demand for Raptors, Ford will bump production from three trucks per hour to five. Not much, we agree. But building an extra 48 trucks per day, at most, seems like a prudent way of addressing demand without oversaturating what is ultimately a niche market. Check out the press release below for more.
