1950 FORD F1 V8 FLATHEAD 3 SPEED MANUAL WITH 373 GEAR REAREND. THIS TRUCK WAS RESTORED IN 1997 BY MR. PAGANS , BUT HE SOON PASSED AWAY. IT WAS GIVEN TO HIS SON IN 1997 AND PARKED IN HIS GARAGE. OVER THE LAST 16 YEARS HE PUT 2000 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND BASICALLY FORGOT ABOUT IT. I PURCHASED THE TRUCK FROM HIM AND PUT A NEW ALUMINUM 3 CORE RADIATOR ON IT, NEW SPARK PLUGS, WIRES, DISTRIBUTOR PARTS, FUEL PUMP, BATTERY, ALL WHEEL CYLINDERS, SOME BRAKE LINES, BOTH THERMOSTATS , AND ONE MANIFOLD GASKET. THIS IS NOT A SHOW TRUCK THERE ARE SOME FLAWS OM THE 16 YEAR OLD PAINT JOB. THIS TRUCK HARDLY HAS ANY RUST AT ALL. THERE IS A SMALL AMOUNT IN THE FRONT FENDERS AND SOME ON BACK FENDER. I DONT THINK ALL TOGETHER THEY ARE AS BIG AS MY HAND. I DROVE THIS TRUCK ALL WEEKEND AND ALL GAUGES FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE SPEEDO DOES NOT WORK , BUT I PLAN ON ADDRESSING THAT ISSUE BUT NO PROMISES. IT TRACKS PERFECT, STOPS GREAT AND STARTS EVERY TIME. IT HAS VACUUM WIPERS THAT WORK BUT ARE WEAK. IT HAS A MODERN CD PLAYER AND SPEAKERS (UNDER SEAT). THE INTERIOR LOOKS GREAT AND WINDOWS ROLL DOWN WITH TWO FINGERS. THEY ARE THAT EASY. THE UNDERNEATH OF THIS TRUCK IS SOLID WITH NO RUST EXCEPT TWO FENDER BRACES THAT EASILY REMOVE AND YOU CAN REPLACE FOR LESS THAN 50 DOLLARS. THE DOORS OPEN PERFECT AND SHUT FLAWLESSLY. ALL THE GLASS IS PERFECT EXCEPT FOR WINDSHIELD THAT WAS CRACKED IN 97 WHEN INSTALLED. THIS IS TRULY A RARE BARN FIND THAT I HAVE DONE ALL THE MECHANICAL WORK AND IT RUNS GREAT. THE TIRES STILL HAVE KNOBBIES ON THE SIDE AND THIS TRUCK CLEANS UP WELL. WHEN MR. PAGANS SON WAS WILLED THIS CAR IN 97 HE WENT AND BOUGHT A CHEAP TENT TYPE NYLON CARPORT THAT THE WIND BLEW INTO THE TRUCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND SCRATCHED THE PAINT. THE SON PUT PRIMER OVER SCRATCHES TO ENSURE THEY DID NOT RUST. THE BED WOOD IS A 6 OUT OF A TEN BUT COULD USE SANDING DOWN AND NEW VARNISH. IT HAS TRUE DUAL EXHAUST COMING OUT OF THE REAR.

Ford Focus Electric gets $6,000 price drop, now starts at $29,995
Mon, Oct 20 2014In early 2013, the Nissan Leaf shed a massive $6,500 from its $35,200 base price to offer a new starting price of $28,800. Since then, we have seen numerous other plug-in vehicles get smaller price tags, from the Honda Fit EV (lower lease price) to the Chevrolet Volt (around $5,000 lower) to the Mitsubishi i (a $6,130 drop). Last year, Ford lowered the $39,200 price of the Focus Electric by around $4,000, but that hasn't been enough to get the Ford EV to really compete, saleswise, with other plug-in vehicles on the market. But wait, as they say, there's more. This past weekend, Ford lopped another $6,000 from the price of both the 2014 model year Focus EVs currently on dealer lots as well as the redesigned 2015 models that are now rolling out (they're basically the same car, minus some appearance changes). Ford spokesman Aaron Miller confirmed to AutoblogGreen that the Focus EV will now start at $29,995 and said that reducing the price should make the Blue Oval's only pure EV competitive. "We hope by reducing the price we're giving consumers another reason to consider it," he said. Through the end of September 2014, Ford has sold just 1,534 Focus EVs in the US (the model sold 1,335 in the first nine months of 2013). For comparison's sake, the Nissan Leaf starts at $29,010 and sells around 3,000 units a month in the US. Miller notes that the Focus EV has been selling the best on the West Coast, and is also doing well on the East Coast. After that, he said Atlanta and the Great Lakes area also see decent sales of model's admittedly small pie. We can only assume that offering the EV for under $30,000 will make that pie somewhat bigger.
A tribute to William Clay Ford
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
Watch these Australian Ford and Holden muscle cars duke it out
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Australia's Motoring has put together a little video on two of the great performance vehicles available down under - the Holden VF Commodore HSV GTS and the Ford Falcon FPV GT R-Spec. And while both FPV and the Falcon might be on their way out, there's still plenty of time for a little head-to-head comparison between the two.
The cars aren't all that well evenly matched, though. The Ford boasts a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, which the Aussies measure out at 449 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The HSV, though, with its Corvette-derived, 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 is just too powerful - 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Predictably, it doesn't end too well for the Ford. As the guys from Motoring point out, the new VF Commodore is just too new and too good, with its extra power and its adaptive dampers (GM's excellent MagnaRide). Interestingly, Motoring did point out that the Holden's electric steering is better than the Ford's hydraulic steering, which is a lot like a Porsche purist saying they prefer water-cooled engines to air cooled.
