Keep in mind this truck is 72 years old, it is in great shape and restoration is not complete.This is a survivor before Ford shut down production to turn over their factory for the war effort.  The only  produced these for a few months. Vehicle is sold as is.  The engine runs strong and I believe it is the original Flathead V8, it was changed over to 12 volt.  The following has been done mechanically:
I have replaced the complete fuel system, new gas tank, sending unit, fuel lines, fuel pump, spark plugs & wires and carburetor.  The wiring has all been replaced except the  front end light harnesses's. Re-cored radiator, upper & lower
radiator hoses replaced,  radiator pipes replaced  with stainless steel, new thermostats, new batteries(2 6 volt batteries included) new starter and and original starter.  New motor mounts.  All hoses and belts have been replaced.  New water
pump.  Instrument cluster was completely rebuilt & re calibrated like new.  New head light switch and harness, starter button. Original heater, no leaks  Floor panels patched(see pictures) Needs wiper motor,  New hinge pins & bolts.  4 almost new white wide wall tires with little wear, other than me test driving.

I have over $5200. in receipts for parts and items that have been repaired or replaced. I have NOS muffler, stainless grill "jail bars", chrome plated hood latch assembly, chrome left mirror,  new running boards, new tail gate, headliner and interior kit with panels.  Dimmer switch.

These repairs seems to have been done by the previous owner:  Brake lines and brakes,  exterior work , wood floor for bed with stainless strips(see picture)  rear bed corners by tailgate. Some rear spring leaf's have been removed to lower. I have these also.  It appears to have the original blue paint and then the dark green as seen in the picture.  The body does need some work but I feel it wouldn't take much to get it ready. I have additional pictures that I can send.  If interested please email me.

Ford paying $750 million just to close plant in Belgium

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

According to a report from Reuters, Ford is shelling out $750 million in a severance deal that will see the automaker close its facility in Genk, Belgium. The automaker reached this deal with the 4,000 hourly workers employed at the plant last week, which means the company will pay out an average of $187,500 per worker.
Ford is still negotiating with the 300 salaried workers at the factory, which currently produces the Mondeo sedan. All told, Ford expects to lose around $2 billion in Europe thanks in no small part to the region's ongoing economic downturn, and two more plants are scheduled to be shut down in Europe this year. The company will log its $750 million payout under "special items" for this quarter.
As you may recall, Ford took a similar path in the US back in 2009 when the domestic market took a spill. Back then, the company shelled out around $50,000 per employee with at least one year of experience, plus either $25,000 toward a new car or an extra cash payment of $20,000. It would seem the cost of closing plants in Belgium is a much harder pill to swallow than in the States...

2013 Ford F-150 Limited

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.

Ford demonstrates Mustang's new Line Lock burnout feature

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

Been saving your pennies for a 2015 Ford Mustang? Put in a few extra shifts or some overtime? Got a great down payment ready? Well, however much you saved for your new pony car, start saving more - you'll need the extra money to spend on tires.
That's because the Mustang will come with a system called Line Lock, which can lock the front brakes electronically, allowing drivers to perform big, dumb, smoky burnouts without moving so much as an inch. It's sort of like launch control, only the average driver might actually use it.
Now, line locks aren't uncommon, particularly in drag racing. Usually, a flip of the switch locks the front brakes. The Mustang, besides offering the system from the factory which is unique in and of itself, looks a bit more involved.
