Here is one of my personal favorites so far!! 1952 Ford F-6 fire truck that was in service in Tennessee and sold from the fire house to the individual I bought from in 2007. At this point the truck had a full restoration including all new interior, glass, weather stripping, seals , paint interior and exterior , all new chrome, etc. With only 6,112 original documented mileage this truck is in amazing condition with no rust ever. Original flathead v8 starts and runs on a dime every time with no cooling problems. Added electronic ignition, new water pumps, rebuilt radiator, and full tune up. Very well detailed under the hood. Since I have owned it I have installed a 1952 period correct 4 speed full synchronized transmission ( 4syn) for easier driving and also had the drive shaft rebuilt. It has a fully functional 2 speed split shift rear end. From there had the hard to find 19.5 wheels added to get rid of the old 2 piece wheels. I had a complete brake job done including wheel cylinders, shoes, lines, hoses, drums, hardware kit, e brake lining, power assist, master cylinder axle seals and more. This truck stops great! All the fluids have been drained and filled. The truck has been completely rewired front to back with dual batteries installed. Full 12 volt battery conversion with battery isolator installed for running all the lights and etc.. Everything works on this truck mechanically and electronically. I have over 10,000 dollars in invoices for this truck that the previous owner had done between 2008 and 2009. That does not even touch the amount I have done in the past year myself. The two biggest things needed are the passenger side vent window needs replaced and the top of the driver side fender needs to be touched up where the paint has come off. The front lights on the bumpers are in perfect working condition I just have not wired them up completely yet. All the lights, siren, spots, etc.. all have been rewired and work great. I have never tried to pump water but its all complete and looks like it would work. All the gauges have been replaced for the pump (see pictures). The other added bonus is all the antique fire accessories that will come with the truck which is an easy 2,000 dollars worth of extras. I have collected enough parts from 3 trucks and planned on adding some of the accessories to this one. There is way to many parts to try to list here!!! Also have some of the original wheels, complete rebuilt set of brakes if ever needed, some extra 19.5 tires. When I bought the truck I towed it on a 20 foot heavy duty equipment trailer. Everything that comes with the truck should fit in the truck for easy hauling. This truck will also be for sale locally. Please email with any questions or to go over all the extra accessories.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job
Tue, 07 Jan 2014When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
Ford Announces Free Brake-Pad Offer If Customers Stop By Dealers
Mon, Aug 4 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers. "We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts. Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1. "This program reflects our commitment to providing customers with an excellent ownership experience regardless of the age of their vehicle," said Frederiek Toney, President of Ford Customer Service, in the company's announcement of the offer.
