1934 Ford truck. This is a drive anywhere hot rod. Very dependable. Only selling because I am building other cars. It was an old 60's build that had been redone several years ago by my buddy. It is chopped 4 inches and channeled 6 inches. swing out windshield works and all windows roll up and down (yes they are yellow tinted) I got it from him with no motor, trans, driveline, radiator, etc. 3 years ago. I built a sbc 350 with World Products SR Torquer heads, comp hydraulic cam, gear drive, cal custom valve covers, vintage offy intake with 6 two barrels.. (it is only running off 2 centers right now.. could run off all 6 if set up progressive linkage but I never needed to) Vintage Vertex tach drive magneto, etc.. Has rebuilt turbo 350 auto trans, rebuilt posi 9" with great freeway gears, new fuel tank, new radiator, all drum brakes have new wheel cylinders and shoes. interior has autometer gauge, oldsmobile steering wheel, vintage shift knob, dual bucket seats, vintage military seat belts on both sides, amp mounted behind seat to plug in phone, ipod etc through two kick panel mounted speakers. Entire inside is covered in dynamat with floor and back panel carpeted, body has some small issues here and there but nothing crazy.. This truck has made many 1100 mile round trips.. rear wheels are vintage M/T Radir with Hurst cheater slicks, front wheels are steel chrome smoothy with BFG silvertowns. Tires all in good shape. rear suspension is coil spring with shock and 4 bar, front is tube axle with transverse leaf. It has original BLC headlights and 50's olds tail lights. Snap on rear bed cover to keep your stuff dry. Fuel tank is mounted below rear of bed hidden by a louvered roll pan. If this truck does not hit reserve I am going to pull the engine and vintage parts and resell it with a bare bones sbc350 and newer parts.. It is titled as a 1932 Ford pickup but the body detail shows that it is a 1934 ford cab.. it has been this way through the last couple owners over 20 years. The fuel gauge works but is not hooked up to current tank. I do not want trades unless it is a late 30s-40s 2 door coupe. Ask any and all questions before bidding. Your bid is a binding contract.. Can view more cars and pics of this truck at my website. www.bearmetalkustoms.com This is my daily driver. just looking to get something else now.....

Ford F-450 claims best-in-class towing, company abandons practice of removing items to boost payload number
Tue, 02 Sep 2014The ongoing heavy-duty truck battle between Ford and Ram is showing no signs of slowing down. The Blue Oval is trying to remove at least one point of contention between the two brands by testing its 2015 F-450 Super Duty using the Society of Automotive Engineers J2807 towing standard, which Ram also uses. In the new evaluation, the F-450 is rated at a max towing capacity of 31,200 pounds. That's an identical amount as under Ford's own, previous test.
"We leave no doubt with customers that the F-450 pickup truck has best-in-class towing of 31,200 pounds - whether tested using our own internal towing standards or SAE J2807," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president for Global Product Development, in the company's release.
At the same time, Ford is also changing how it calculates the F-450's payload. Instead of using its minimum curb weight as before, the brand is now using the truck's base curb weight. The revision lowers the pickup's rating to 5,300 pounds, compared to 5,450 pounds previously. The company said in its announcement that the reason for this is "aligning its payload rating practices with other manufacturers to make it easier for customers to compare vehicles." General Motors made a similar switch for its pickups in August.
Honda poised for growth, Detroit to hold steady, Car Wars study says
Fri, Jun 5 2015The automotive industry is expected to keep booming in the US over the next several years, but the train might start running out of steam in the long term, according to 2015's Car Wars report from Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy. The forecast focuses on changes between the 2016 and 2019 model years, and the latest trends appear similar in some cases to the past predictions. Sales are expected to keep growing and reach a peak of 20 million in 2018, according to the Detroit Free Press. The expansion is projected to come from a quick pace of vehicle launches, with an average of 48 introductions a year – 26 percent more than in 1996. Crossovers are expected to make up a third of these, maintaining their strong popularity. However, Murphy predicts a decline, as well. By 2025, total sales could fall to around 15 million units. As of May 2015, the seasonally adjusted annual rate for this year stands at 17.71 million. Like last year, Honda is predicted to be a big winner in the future thanks to products like the next-gen Civic. "Honda should be the biggest market share gainer," Murphy said when presenting the report, according to Free Press. Meanwhile, in a situation similar to Car Wars from 2012, a lack of many new vehicles is expected to cause a drop for Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan. Based on this forecast, Ford, General Motors, and FCA US will all generally maintain market share for the coming years. The report does make some future product predictions, though. The next Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra might come in 2019, which is earlier than expected. Also, Lincoln could get a Mustang-based coupe for 2017, a compact sedan for 2018 and an Explorer-based model in 2019, according to the Free Press.

Ford director says company has big efficiency plans, but no dedicated EV
Wed, Mar 12 2014The annual autofest known as the North American International Auto Show previews a plethora of exciting new products that we'll see and drive later in the year, from tiny urban commuters to family sedans and crossovers to hard-working big pickups and SUVs. It's also a once-a-year cornucopia of auto executives and leaders from around the world. "There will be some really fun stuff that you'll hear about in the future" - Ford's Kevin Layden So, in-between dozens of cool new-product unveilings on rotating stages during the two press days preceding the public show, we auto scribes grab what planned and impromptu interviews we can. Sessions with top industry leaders can be hard to get, but I was able to score a seat in a group session with then-General Motors North America president (now executive VP of global product development) Mark Reuss, and I also managed brief one-on-ones with a trio of vehicle electrification leaders, one each from Ford, BMW and GM, and what they said then remains relevant now. First up is Kevin Layden, Ford's Director of Electrified Powertrain Engineering. ABG: Where will Ford go beyond its current Focus EV and hybrids, and will there be a Ford EV and/or hybrid on its own energy-optimized platform one day. KL: We don't want to do a dedicated electric vehicle with all the development costs borne by a niche product. At the Michigan Assembly plant right now we're building the Focus electric, PHEV and EcoBoost on the same assembly line. Also the C-Max, with both a hybrid and an Energi plug-in, and we use that same power pack in the Fusion Hybrid and Energi. We want to be, "The power of choice" [a Ford marketing slogan], so having that choice for customers is very important. And if I want to sell the Fusion, Focus and C-Max globally, we can use these power packs wherever it makes sense. So as we go forward, you'll see us proliferating the power packs we have today. Then the question is, what do we do next? There will be some really fun stuff that you'll hear about in the future. ABG: Is the efficiency difference between a dedicated ultra-efficient vehicle platform and a shared multi-use platform getting smaller as all platforms get more efficient? KL: Exactly. Were going through aero studies now on wheels and tires and hood sealers on base vehicles. We have full aerodynamic wind tunnel studies going on with the base Focus and C-Max, so all of that [aerodynamic improvement] will be there for EVs.
