1952 Ford F1 Rare Deluxe Five Star Extra Cab on 2040-cars
Albany, Texas, United States
|
RARE TRUCK!!! THIS TRUCK IS A 1952 FORD F1 WITH (AS FORD REFERRED TO IT AS) "THE DELUXE FIVE STAR EXTRA CAB PACKAGE" WHICH MEANS IT CAME WITH STAINLESS TRIM AROUND THE WINDSHIELD AND HOOD SIDES, (ONE HOOD SIDE TRIM MISSING), IT INCLUDED THE INSIDE CAB LIGHT WHICH IS STILL IN PLACE, A LOCKING GLOVE BOX WHICH I STILL HAVE THE KEY FOR, KEYED DOOR LOCKS ON BOTH DOORS, I HAVE THE KEYS FOR THOSE TOO, UPHOLSTERED DOOR PANELS AND ARM REST WHICH ARE STILL THERE BUT NEED ATTENTION, DUAL WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND DUAL SUN VISORS ALL OF WHICH ARE ON THE TRUCK, CIG LIGHTER, TWIN HORNS, FOAM PADDED SEAT AND EXTRA SOUND DEADENING MATERIAL THROUGHOUT THE CAB. IT ALSO CAME WITH A FACTORY INSTALLED GRILL GUARD WHICH IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND HAS KEPT THE GRILL AND HEADLIGHT BEZELS IN PERFECT SHAPE. BOTH DOORS OPEN AND SHUT WITH EASE, THE HOOD OPENS AND SHUTS NICELY BUT HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE FINAL LATCHING. HOOD HINGES WORK GREAT.
THE TRUCK HAS A 239 V-8 FLATHEAD WHICH IS IN THE TRUCK AND COMPLETE.....NOTHING MISSING EXCEPT ONE PLUG WIRE. IT HAS A 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION WHICH SEEMS TO WORK GREAT...THE SHIFTER IS STILL ON THE ORIGINAL STEERING COLUMN. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL TITLE FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AS WELL AS THE REGISTRATION PAPERS UP UNTIL AROUND 1968 WHEN IT WAS PARKED ACCORDING TO ONE OF HIS FAMILY MEMBERS. I BELIEVE THE ENGINE WOULD RUN PERFECT WITH A LITTLE TLC.... I HAVE MARVEL MYSTERY OIL IN THE CYLINDERS AND AM SURE IT WOULDN'T TAKE MUCH TO TURN IT OVER AS THE ENGINE APPEARS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN LEFT OPEN OR TO THE WEATHER. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 11,000 MILES AND THAT MAY VERY WELL BE CORRECT. REAR END IS ORIGINAL AND ROLLS PERFECT. AS WITH ALL 62 YEAR OLD TRUCKS IT HAS SOME RUST BUT IT'S REALLY NOT BAD AT ALL COMPARED TO MOST I SEE. THE LOWER FRONT FENDERS AT THE RUNNING BOARDS HAVE SOME RUST BUT I HAVE NEW PATCH PANELS FOR BOTH SIDES THAT GO WITH THE TRUCK. ALSO HAS SOME RUST ON THE FRONT FENDERS NEAR THE FRONT BUT SMALL PATCH PANELS WOULD FIX THESE EASILY. THE FLOOR HAS SOME RUST ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ONLY, BUT AGAIN NOT A BIG DEAL. THE RUNNING BOARDS AREN'T VERY GOOD BUT THERE IS A USED SET IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK THAT ARE SOLID WHICH ALSO GO WITH THE TRUCK. IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO BUILD A "PATINA" TRUCK, JUST FIX THE FLOOR BOARD AND LEAVE THE REST....IT'S COOL LIKE IT IS!!!! IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO ASK THEM. THE RESERVE PRICE IS FAIR BUT I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE IT AWAY. THIS IS A RARE NICE TRUCK, SO BID ACCORDINGLY. IF YOU HAVE NO MEANS OF PAYING FOR THE TRUCK, PLEASE DON'T BID..... I'VE HAD MY SHARE OF DEADBEATS OVER THE YEARS... I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION AT ANYTIME PRIOR TO THE RESERVE BEING MET AS IT IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AS WELL....IF YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE A REALISTIC OFFER FOR ME TO END THE AUCTION PLEASE DO SO, BUT PLEASE DON'T ASK WHAT THE RESERVE IS. I ACCEPT CASH IN PERSON, WIRE TRANSFER FROM YOUR BANK TO MY LOCAL BANK DEALING WITH BANK PRESIDENT, PAYPAL IF YA HAVE TO BUT WOULD RATHER NOT DUE TO THE FEE'S THEY CHARGE BUT IF THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE MOST COMFORTABLE WITH THAT WILL BE FINE, PERSONAL OR BUSINESS CHECK....BUT ALL FUNDS (REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY'RE MADE) MUST CLEAR BEFORE THE TRUCK LEAVES MY PROPERTY.... I'M AN HONEST MAN AND EXPECT THE SAME.....I ASK THAT THE TRUCK BE REMOVED FROM MY PROPERTY ASAP AS I DON'T HAVE THE SPACE TO STORE IT...THERE WILL BE A 30.00 PER DAY CHARGE FOR STORAGE FEE'S AFTER 3 WEEKS FROM SELL DATE UNLESS PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE.. |

Ford recalls 382k vehicles across six campaigns
Wed, Sep 30 2015Ford needs to repair a total of 381,633 vehicles in North America across six newly announced campaigns, including five safety recalls and one compliance recall. By far the largest of these campaigns covers the 342,271 examples of the 1998-2003 Windstar to double check an earlier recall repair. Among these, 283,413 are in the US and 58,858 are in Canada. The combination of corrosion and stress can cause cracks in the rear axle and eventually lead to the part to snap completely. The company reports a small number of accidents might be connected to this, but there are no injuries. The minivans were recalled for this issue back in 2010, and it was investigated by NHTSA. According to Ford's latest announcement, the reinforcement brackets on some of these models might not have been installed correctly. This time, dealers will perform an inspection. Minivans with incorrectly installed brackets will get a new rear axle. The rest of the owners will be offered a deal to replace the part at a reduced cost. The next largest campaign covers 36,857 examples of the 2015 F-150 to fix a problem with the adaptive cruise control. Specifically, there are 33,481 affected trucks in the US, and 3,376 in Canada. According to Ford, "when passing a large, highly reflective truck" the radar in the system can misidentify a semi as being in the same lane as the pickup. The collision warning system would then activate, slowing the F-150. There's one report of an accident with this happening but no injuries. The fix is simply an update to the adaptive cruise control module software. Ford also has a recall for 1,477 examples of its 2016 F-53 and F-59 stripped chassis models, and they're all located in the US. A manufacturing issue might allow the trucks to shift into reverse without the driver first applying the brakes. There are no reports of any accidents from this, though. To repair the problem, the models get a new transmission shift control bracket and an adjustment to the shift cable. The Blue Oval's safety compliance recall covers 708 examples of the 2016 Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, including 658 of them in the US, 28 in Canada, and 22 in Mexico. On these models, a manufacturing problem with the fuel tank could allow it to crack in a crash, which isn't allowed under federal rules. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires. The fix will be a new fuel tank for all of them. The company is also repairing 251 units of the 2015 Taurus and Lincoln MKS, plus the 2016 Explorer.
Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86
Wed, 26 Jun 2013On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.
How and why Ford is rolling out Vignale in Europe
Wed, 09 Oct 2013
We know that Ford is positioning the new, upscale Vignale brand in Europe to fill a niche market of customers who want a bit more luxury, a lot more service and the same reliability and dependability that a non-Vignale Ford offers. But so far, we've been in the dark regarding how the Blue Oval will sell Vignale vehicles, how many of them will be created, and what the new sub-brand has in store for the future.
Gaetano Thorel, Ford's European marketing head, recently was interviewed by Automotive News and shared details about Ford Vignale. Thorel says, "The Vignale trim line will be priced like an ST model but attract a completely different type of customer." Specifically, he says it will attract customers in the upper 15 percent of the price band who don't want a performance-oriented ST model. He adds that Vignale cars will be about 10 percent more expensive than Titanium-trim cars. About 500 of Ford's European dealers will sell Vignale Fords, Thorel says, "in areas that make sense." The automaker expects 10 percent of its European sales to be Vignale cars, which equates to about 5 percent of its global sales. When asked if there are any other Vignale models planned beyond the Mondeo, Thorel said, "There is nothing written in stone yet."
