Stunning F100 Ford Restored Pickup Truck. 350 Engine. Multiple Car Show Winner. on 2040-cars
Arlington Heights, Illinois, United States
Hello I am selling one of my favorite cars I have ever owned in my life. My 1951 ford f100 pickup. This car has been to countless car shows with me and my sons and everyone comes to talk to me about the car.
VIN Number is F2R1KC28323 This car has had alot of money invested into it to make it what it is today. I used her for car shows and sunday driving but she would be great for someone who would want a daily driver as well. She starts up everytime with no hesitation. Even after sitting a couple weeks she starts no problem. The Engine is a very reliable 350 Small block which is attached to a 4 speed cast iron truck transmission. I actually start the car in 2nd gear everytime because 1st gear has way too much torque. A really fun and fast car to drive. But driving down the highway at 60 mph I use one hand on the steering wheel because it drives so smooth. This car has all the features of modern day cars. It has power steering, disk brakes, cd/dvd player, heater, hydraulic bed lift, led taillights and a very very nice bed cover. All lights highbeams drls headlights turn signals brake lights work perfect. Clutch and trans work flawless shift very smooth and very easy. Engine as stated before runs extremley strong. Wheels are like new condition and match the car very well. Tires have about 70 percent tread all around left. THERE IS ABSOLUTLEY NO RUST ON THE CAR AT ALL. This car has been stored in a heated garage and never seen rain or snow since I have owned it. The paint is a very beutiful color and it shines very well as you can see. But it has a couple very minor flaws. The interior is very clean and well taken care of. Power steering allows for easy turning of the wheel. The seats are very very comfortable. Floor mounted shifter is really ergonomic. Truck bed has a very nice cover. Not some cheaply made bed cover. The bed goes up and down with a press of a button although I disconnected it because it was draining the battery after a couple of weeks without starting her. I would put it up in car shows and it would turn heads. It has an eddelbrock carburator which cost over 300 dollars to give it a nice performance boost. Car has great sound and purrs like a v8 should. Disk brakes stop on a dime. This is a steal for the amount of truck your getting for the money. You wont find a better one for anywhere near this price. I need the space so Im looking to sell it. With summer around the corner this is the perfect time to buy. Call me or message me for more information at 847 414 3709 My name is jack. Thank you! |

Ford recalls over 680,000 Ford Fusions, Mondeos, and Lincoln MKZs for seat belt pretensioners
Fri, Dec 2 2016Update: We spoke with a Ford representative who said that owners will be notified by mail during the week of January 16 . Dealers will also have the fix available at the same time. Owners can bring in their vehicles to dealers for an evaluation in the mean time. The main text has been updated to reflect this. The Basics: Ford is recalling 680,872 2013-2016 Ford Fusions, 2015-2016 Ford Mondeos, and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZ s for an issue with front driver-side and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners. The Problem: The seat-belt pretensioners did not have sufficient insulation applied. When the pretensioners are activated, the heat generated can cause the cables connected to the belts to separate, which in turn can prevent the seat belts from effectively restraining the occupant. This can lead to injuries. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports two accidents and two injuries have occurred that are related to this recall. The fix: A dealer technician will inject an insulation coating around the pretensioner. This should effectively keep the heat away from the cables, ensuring the seat belt will properly restrain the user in a collision. If you own one: Affected owners will be notified by mail on the week of January 16. Dealers will have the fix available that week, and owners will be able to bring in their vehicles for the fix to be implemented free of charge. Related Video:
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.
Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."
