1941 FORD PICKUP
THIS IS A SOLID TRUCK FOR IT'S AGE. IT LOOKS TO HAVE A HAD A REPAINT YEARS AGO. THIS WAS AN OLDER HOT ROD THAT HAD AN OLDS ENGINE AND TRANS IN IT. THE PREVIOUS OWNER REMOVED THE ENGINE AND TRANS, BOXED THE FRAME, INSTALLED A 9" FORD DISC REAR END FROM A BABY LINCOLN AND WELDED IN A MUSTANG II FRONT END, THAT WAS AS FAR AS HE GOT. WHEN INSTALLING THE FRONT END HE REMOVED PART OF THE FACTORY VIN STAMP ON THE FRAME NOT KNOWING IT. I FOUND PAPER WORK IN THE GLOVE BOX FROM AN ANTIQUE AUCTION IN 1989 LISTING THE FULL VIN. THIS TRUCK COMES WITH A BILL OF SALE ONLY-NO TITLE!
THE HOOD, FRONTEND AND GRILL ARE IN GREAT SHAPE. THE WORSE PART OF THE CAB IS THE LOWER RIGHT A PILLAR WHERE IT CONNECTS TO THE FLOOR. THE DRIVER'S DOOR LOOKS REAL GOOD, BUT THE RIGHT SIDE HAS SOME RUST NEAR THE BOTTOM EDGE. THE DOOR GLASS AND REAR GLASS ARE GOOD, THE FRONT GLASS HAS SOME MILK AND SUN DAMAGE.
THESE RESTORABLE TRUCKS ARE GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO FIND. THIS ONE HAS ALOT GOING FOR IT. WE ALL KNOW WHAT THESE BABIES GO FOR RESTORED OR HOT RODDED. NOW IS YOUR CHANCE TO SNATCH ONE UP BEFORE THEIR ALL GONE FOR A GREAT PRICE!
ALL I HAVE IS WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL 479-238-1122 OR 479-228-4304. I CAN ALSO DELIVER THE TRUCK IN THE U.S. FOR $1.50 A LOADED MILE (ONE WAY). THANKS, MIKE

Texas plumber shocked his old Ford F-250 is now in terrorists' hands [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Do you ever wonder what the a owner is doing with your vehicle after you trade it in? Mark Oberholtzer of Mark-1 Plumbing in Texas City, TX, has no need to imagine, but it's probably his worst nightmare. That's because an image of his old Ford F-250 is now on Twitter as a gun platform in the Syrian Civil War. While the image only appeared recently, Oberholtzer traded the truck in last November. Somehow since then the F-250 made its way from Texas to Syria. According to a report from television station WHOU, the dealer that took the trade said the pickup immediately went to auction. Unfortunately, along the whole route no one ever took Mark-1 Plumbing's name and phone number off the door. So when the image went up on Twitter, everyone knew whom the Ford previously belonged to. The plumbing company makes it abundantly clear that this whole bizarre situation is simply a coincidence, and it has absolutely no ties to the conflict in Syria. However, that isn't preventing people from phoning the business with angry calls and threats. Things are so bad that Oberholtzer keeps the phones unplugged for relief. Scroll down to watch a video of the guy's flabbergasted reaction to finding out what his F-250 is doing now. This content is hosted by a third party.

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.
This 2,000-hp Mustang is in serious need of wheelie bars
Tue, 25 Feb 2014The Ford Mustang on the right is drag racing with the standard technique. The Mustang on the left, driven by David Measell, is using a new "rear bumper only" technique that evidently surprised everyone at the South Georgia Motorsports Park strip - including Measell.
Measell said his outfit just bought the car the week before the event, noting that it has more than 2,000 horsepower. Speaking of his "flying" run, Measell said, "We turned it up to dip on down," by which he meant they turned up the power in order to get his time down. Turns out all that power and all that traction sent the nose straight up into the air almost as soon as the race began.
He told an interviewer afterward that this was his first race in a "regular car" since he normally drives a pro-mod. "I like my wheelie bars," he concluded. You can see how he got there in the video below.
