Trusty farm truck for sale: This pickup belonged to an engine builder in Grass Valley California. His personal rig. He rebuilt the engine/transmission/clutch and then fell ill which forced sale to the old fellow I purchased it from in Live Oak California. He rebuilt the brakes/steering/kingpins and installed a new Drake tank as well as went through the cooling system. He owned it "Since the sixties", never registered it and only drove it around on his property. I have owned it for three years and used it to move plants and material around at my nursery. I sneak it out on the road from time to time but have driven it perhaps two hundred miles. I only keep a gallon or two of fuel in it so its fresh. Exterior is in primer and interior is original black. I replaced the grill with new Drake unit and replaced all fluids and installed a new coil. It runs fantastic. Drives great. Breaks work perfect. Transmission and Clutch shift buttery smooth and solid. The body has usual dings and dents but is solid and shows little but surface rust. The floor has been replaced. Hood is from a '41 and has louvers punched. Seat has been redone in green. Bed floor has been removed and replaced with plywood. Tailgate hinges are rusty. Rust at drivers door bottom and a little on passenger as well.Top rust is only thin surface. It is wired to run but that's it. Wood under cab needs replacing to correct stance. Rear bumper is not original. Hood latch is not functional. Lever shocks switched out at some point. I do not know about condition of gauges or lights. Included with sale is brand new set of glass for doors and windshield. Also new set of tail lights. Also included is correct vintage hood latch for forty including "V8" emblems. The truck always starts and runs perfect. It has been my most reliable piece of equipment since I acquired it. I have no paperwork to prove the rebuild, just what I was told by previous owner and the way it runs. I do not have title only Bill of Sale.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
Hertz goes Dutch with Ford Focus ST-H
Wed, 23 Oct 2013Want to take a performance car for a ride? Hertz can make that happen. Spin by your local rental location (depending, of course, on availability) and you can take out a Dodge Challenger, Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, even a Corvette as part of the Adrenaline Collection. Hertz's Dream Cars lineup even includes Porsches and AMGs. But the really interesting stuff is what you can't get anywhere else: cars built specifically for Hertz.
Back in 1966, Hertz had Ford cook up a special run of Mustang GT350H models in back with gold stripes. It became an icon in and of itself, and in 2008 Hertz had a new batch of Shelby GT-Hs made. Earlier this year, Hertz contracted Penske to deliver another fleet of specially-built Mustangs you can rent. But if your travel plans include a trip to the Netherlands, Hertz has a completely different type of specially-prepared Ford on offer for you.
Back in August, Ford delivered a couple of Focus STs made specifically for Hertz in Holland. Now it's expanded that fleet even further. The Ford Focus ST-H features the same 252-horsepower 2.0-liter turbo four (and everything else) as the standard Focus ST, but gets that signature black exterior with gold stripes and a black leather interior with Recaro buckets. So in case a trip to Amsterdam doesn't hold enough thrills, now you can throw a hot hatch into the mix as well. Scope out the press release (in Dutch - isn't that weird?) below.
Ford To Unveil Solar Hybrid Concept Car At CES
Thu, Jan 2 2014Ford plans to unveil at this month's International CES gadget show a solar-powered concept car that offers the same performance as a plug-in hybrid but without the need for a plug. The C-Max Solar Energi Concept car uses a gasoline engine combined with a gizmo that acts like a magnifying glass to concentrate the sun's rays on the vehicle's roof-mounted solar panels. The automaker says the vehicle's estimated combined city-highway mileage is 100 miles (160 kilometers) per gallon. The U.S. auto maker says that by using solar power instead of an electric plug, a typical owner will reduce their annual greenhouse gas emissions by four metric tons. The company says it sold about 85,000 hybrid or electric vehicles in 2013, including 6,300 units of its C-Max Energi plug-in hybrid. The sun-ray concentrator was developed by researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and uses what is known as a Fresnel lens, which concentrates light but can be made thinner than a conventional lens. A full day of sunshine is equivalent to a four-hour battery charge, or 8 kilowatts, Ford says. On a full charge, it should have a range of 620 miles (997 kilometers), the same as the C-Max Energi. The concept car also comes with a plug-in port for standard electric charging. Ford says that 75 percent of all trips made by an average driver could be powered by the sun. After showing off the concept car at the convention in Las Vegas Jan. 7-10, Ford Motor Co. says that it will test the vehicle with institute researchers to determine if it's feasible for mass production.
