I hate to sell this because I was always looking for a SOLID pick up truck of this era and as soon as I found this one, my storage facility is being sold to settle an estate. This would be an excellent nostalgic truck to put together with just sealer for paint and have some fast fun with it or for a restoration. This is for the complete body and frame with no engine or transmission. The trim, fuel tank, heater, radiator, door and window mechanisms, etc… all appear to be there. The glass is there along with new weather stripping and seals. Since the glass is already out, I would recommend putting new glass in and it is readily available or the pieces that come with it can be used for patterns. The frame was cleaned and painted black with original front axle and it has a disc brake conversion. The engine and transmission mounts have not been altered so if you want to still use a Ford Flathead motor, the steel mounts for that are included. I believe the rear may be from a 1953 truck but cannot confirm that.

The body is VERY solid, especially the cab and doors. The fenders may have had some repair work done but this truck would take very little in body and prep work to make it look great. The bed and tailgate is not bad at all and the running boards will need a little rust repair but are good. I have learned the hard way that it is best to buy something in good shape and pay a little more than to pay big bucks for repair work.

I took pictures of the parts that go with the truck and it appears most of everything is there. There are some duplicate parts like wing window frames and window crank mechanism (see pictures) Used and reproduction parts are readily available. Below is a list of the new rubber and seals that are included:

· Division window bar and channel

· Rear window rubber

· Windshield rubber

· Back of front fender to cowl seal

· Door seal kit

· Vent window rubber seals

· Cowl vent seal

· Gas tank neck grommet

· Cowl lacing kit

Truck is located in Sinking Spring, Pa which is West of Reading and is for sale locally. Winning bidder pays $500 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of the end of auction. It is buyers responsibility to pick it up or make full shipping arrangements. This comes with a bill of sale only– no title. The missing title is not an issue because you can get new title based on the truck being put together with salvage parts.

J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."

Ford Mondeo with 1.5-liter EcoBoost debuts in China

Sat, 20 Apr 2013

Does the car above, posing fancifully in white, look familiar? Well, it should. Although it wears Mondeo badges in the form you see above for the Chinese market - as it does in Europe - the car is basically the same thing sold in the US as the Ford Fusion. Of course, it's what's under that shapely skin that counts.
Ford has chosen the Shanghai Motor Show as the venue with which to unveil its 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine. We'd heard about the engine before, but now we have a few performance estimates to share: 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet).
Those numbers pretty much confirm previous rumors indicating about 177 in each category, and it's right on par with what Ford's own 1.6-liter EcoBoost produces. Ford is claiming best-in-class fuel economy as well, but no specific figures have yet been provided. In any case, we'll surely have all the data soon enough, as the 1.5-liter mill is destined for the US Fusion in 2014.

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene

Tue, 13 May 2014

Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
