1937 Ford Pickup Model 73 Half-Ton F-85 Flathead V8 - 3pd Full Frame Off Restoration Completed In 1999 High Quality Restoration Still Look's Excellent With Less Then 5,000 Miles Since Completion. One Gorgeous Pickup!
Description:
Ford restyled its line of pickup trucks for 1935 with a more curvaceous grille, skirted fenders and a laid-back windshield. The new trucks enjoyed phenomenal success, especially surprising given that the country was in the depths of the Great Depression. That success was enough to convince the company to continue the line virtually unchanged in the years ahead, including 1937. One short-lived change was the introduction that year of a downsized economy version of the 221 CI flathead V-8, but a severe lack of power was its undoing and the factory soon dropped it from the equipment list. Another innovation for 1937 was a new 2-piece split-vee windshield, which gave better visibility and made the truck’s cozy cabin seem a little roomier. This 1937 Ford Model 73 half-ton pickup is typical of the utilitarian nature of that line. The truck features straight sheet metal all around, with Medium Green paint on the cab and pickup bed and matching fenders, running boards are black finished with chrome wheels. Its full-bore 221/85 HP flathead A engine resides in a fully restored engine compartment finished as it would have appeared in 1937, including a downdraft Stromberg 97 carb with oil bath air cleaner. The Ford’s purposeful interior has been restored with the correct material for the seats and floor mats and is typical of the vintage, employing operating gauges and a 100 MPH speedometer in a twin-gauge instrument panel. A few period correct items have been installed like dual mirrors, blinkers, rear view mirror with clock etc. Completing this rare ‘30s pickup is a restored cargo box that remains unused and completely fresh.

Ford unveils all-new 2016 F-650 and F-750 at NTEA
Tue, 04 Mar 2014Medium-duty work trucks might not be the most exciting vehicles, but they perform necessary jobs everyday. Ford is in the process of a complete refresh of its entire commercial vehicle lineup over the next 18 months, and it is debuting the all-new versions of its F-650 and F-750 trucks at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, IN.
"The all-new F-650/F-750 allow us to leverage our strengths and sales leadership in Classes 1 to 5 to create a better F-650/F-750 that's designed, engineered and built by Ford in the USA," said Ford spokesperson Mike Levine to Autoblog via email.
Huge amounts of torque is vital for trucks like these, and both models are offered with some of Fords biggest engines. Buyers can opt for either the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel with TorqShift 6-speed automatic with available power takeoff or a gasoline-fueled 6.8-liter V10 with a 6-speed automatic. The V10 can also be ordered from the factory to be fueled by compressed natural gas or liquid propane gas.
Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school
Thu, 01 Aug 2013The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.
Ford Explorer gets appearance pack for 2015
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Remember when Ford launched the totally new Explorer in late 2010, and people were skeptical about how the now-crossover would fare, after ditching its traditional SUV roots? Well, we're several years in, and I think we can assuredly say that Ford made the right decision. Sales are better than ever (in fact, May was the current Explorer's best month yet), and the crossover is finding its way into the hands of a whole host of new Ford buyers.
A wholly refreshed Explorer is still forthcoming, but to keep its strong-selling crossover fresh, Ford is offering a host of improvements for the 2015 model year, including the attractive appearance package available on the XLT trim level, pictured above. Outside, the pack gets you goodies like 20-inch machined aluminum wheels, black bodyside cladding and roof rack rails. Contrasting Magnetic Metallic accents are found on the grille, mirror caps and liftgate appliqué, and there's an "Explorer" hood badge and body-colored door handles. Inside, there are new Miko suede inserts in the seats, and the package includes the automaker's Sync connectivity with MyFord Touch infotainment.
Elsewhere in the Explorer range, the Class III trailer tow pack is now standard on the Sport, base models get new 18-inch aluminum wheels, and there are three new colors on offer: Bronze Fire Metallic and Magnetic Metallic.
