1936 ford V8 flathead "PROJECT"pickup. Truck was acquired from Arizona and was completely disassembled. partial restoration had begun by original owner? with some work to the cab and rear fenders.. We would categorize this as a preserved vehicle not running condition. many parts we worked on were professionally sand blasted down to metal. The engine which came with the truck we were told was a rare "4 Stroker 8CM Mercury V8 flathead which was the engine everyone wanted back then. engine was in non running NON functioning condition. engine and tranny are not installed in the vehicle.
We are including a complete 12 volt conversion set, GM alternator ( no VR needed) , alternator mount V8 1935-1936 original V8 engine only .complete 12 v gauge set , polymer gas tank with 12 volt sending unit installed.
We are not antique ford truck experts..if something was exactly not original or my be other than stock we would not even know and are not going to state its all stock OEM so bid accordingly..that being said it all bolted up and all seemed to fit and function.. again this is not a museum piece..simply a 78 year old desert survivor that needs a good new home and another lease on life.. priced is extremely fair ..please don't try to talk us down, no trades etc..again try finding any 1936 ford pickups under $40,000 on the market today.. ( maybe Jay Leno might have one ? ) : - )
Some parts may be missing.. its not 100%  this is was received in many boxes and containers so we did our best to assemble in order to inventory what we had..only glass was right door..back window was unserviceable..other did not come with truck..front window frame is missing..again this may have a few items missing..( SEE PHOTOS) what you see it what you will get.!!!
We cleaned it up and had it on display until recently..motor and tranny will need complete rebuilding and condition unknown. engine is not free , tranny is free and shifts 1st and reverse ..truck had been converted to  "Juice" modern hydraulic brakes...truck had been sitting in the elements for some time and will need a complete overhaul. We decided to assemble the truck basically to keep  the parts together. but please understand this is a super rare 1936 Ford and they are impossible to find now..never been chopped etc. we sand blasted everything we could down to metal applied preservation coat of paint put in storage...dents and dings, normal cracks not repaired for the simple reason we were not rebuilding this truck, just preserving it for long time storage.wheels and tires are ones which came with the truck..tires are shot. it will need allot of TLC to say the least..about an inch of desert dirt was cleaned off and everything was sprayed with WD-40 ..but remains as it was when we got it.. again please know this is not a weekend project so please do not bid unless you have the skills and the tools to complete this restoration..also if your intention is to chop or rat rod this wonderful piece of automotive history please look elsewhere...We went to great lengths to get this truck and preserve it for the future..these were manufactured only one year 1936.. 1935 as well as 1937 were different trucks contrary to popular belief ...buyer is responsible for shipping and nothing will leave the garage until full payment is made...cash or cashiers check only with $500 paypal non refundable deposit required within 12 hours following end of auction.
do not bid please if you cannot pay..no lowballers..we know what we have..try finding another one that's not either chopped or rusted to hell..thank you and good luck..

Ford recalls select Explorer, E-Series vans

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Just a few days ago we brought you news that Ford had issued a recall on 28,000 units of the Edge crossover for problems related to the fuel line. But now the Blue Oval has issued recall notices on two more of its larger vehicles.
The first relates to the Explorer, 395 examples of which from the 2011 and 2012 model years were found to have problems with their steering systems if they underwent service after September 1, 2013. An apparent software glitch could lock the steering gear, preventing the driver from steering the vehicle and thereby increasing the risk of a crash. As a result, Ford dealers are being instructed to check their records to identify the problematic vehicles and bring them in to have the steering gear replaced. Details of the recall can be found in the PDF linked here.
The second problem revolves around E-Series vans that may develop bubbles in their windshields under hot temperatures. The decrease in visibility through the problematic windshield could - you guessed it - "increase the risk of a crash." As a result, Ford is calling in 4,532 units of the E-150, E-250, E-350 and E-450 vans built in the relatively short window between May 12 and May 26, 2011. Details of this recall can be found in the notice below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
