1947 Ford COE 2-Ton. Model 798W. All original drive train. Heavy-Duty Mercury Flathead V8, 4-speed, Optional 2-speed rear differential and optional heavy-duty springs. This is the long-wheelbase model and has the Ford heavy-duty double frame rails (NO rust). This model is extremely rare and perfect for creating an all-stock rollback car hauler. The engine turns freely and has compression. One of the spark plugs broke off

and I was unable to remove it. Once that issue is resolved I am sure the engine will run. All the other spark plugs have been changed and the valves confirmed to move properly. The front grille was stepped on by a cow (on the farm where it sat for 40+ years), but is all there and ready to straighten. Good cab metal and floors. Please look at the pictures to see vehicle condition.

I would never sell this truck but I broke my back and have to pass on my projects to those able to enjoy them. While early Ford COE's are very rare, the long-wheelbase 2-ton model is quite a bit more rare as most of the COE's were 1.5 ton trucks with the single-speed axle. The Eaton vacuum-shift 2-speed axle makes any truck a blast to drive, providing better power AND better highway cruising. This is the last year for this classic style of COE and has all the available options.

Good Current Montana Title in my name.

Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Highest bidder wins the truck and is responsible for shipping.

Vehicle sold as is, where is.

Deposit due 48 hrs after auction, full payment 7 days after auction (cashier's check or bank transfer preferred).

After receipt of funds the notarized title will be sent via Certified U.S. Mail.

Thanks for checking out this cool old truck!

NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles

Thu, Nov 27 2014

US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.

2015 Ford Mustang to make world debut on Dec. 5 [w/video]

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Between a bevvy of spy shots, speculative renders and insidery images from the halls of Car and Driver, we've got a pretty decent idea of what the 2015 Ford Mustang might look like. Still, we're excited to see the real deal as soon as possible.
Turns out that Ford has told us just when that first official look might come, too, although it has chosen somewhat of a backdoor fashion for dropping the news.
The video below popped up on the Ford Mustang YouTube channel this morning, promoting a social media effort called #MustangInspires on. The video and hashtag ask fans of the pony car to share pictures of the car - or "photographic stories of inspiration" - on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc. But the truly interesting part of the video description is that which mentions taking "the cover off the all-new Mustang" on December 5. Consider our calendars marked.

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
