1955 Ford F-100 Marmon Herrington 4 Wheel Drive, Custom Cab, 4-speed on 2040-cars

Year:1955 Mileage:92681
Location:

1955 Ford Marmon Herrington  

This is a rare marmon herrington half ton truck, it is one of two that are known. I believe this truck belonged to the fire department because upper cab was painted a off white, it had a short wave radio in it at one time, it had a logo on the door, and upper front fenders also. This one is a red custom cab, and this one has the mid year change were they changed the front axle to match the rear which is Dana 44 axle. The truck runs good, but does smoke some, and I redone the brakes with new wheel clys, rubber hoses, and master cly. The truck is solid with one rust spot in the bottom door post on the drivers side that I have a patch panel for, along with new taillights, taillight wiring harness, wipers arms, wiper blades, ignition switch with key, cigar lighter, horn button, parking light lens, NOS seat upholstery, 16" wheels that were sand blasted and painted the correct torch red with new 6.50-16 super traxion tires. The color coded wiring harness inside the cab looks great, and everything works inside the cab like gauges, lights, heater, and so on. I have a Kansas title, but its not a open title, and Georgia will not give me a title because we were not a title state in 55, so it is being sold on bill of sale only. I reserve the right to end auction at any time. All zero are low feedback bidders please call me are I will have to cancel your bid. Please ask question are call 404-867-3163 cell.    

 Thanks Terry

2015 Ford Mustang Convertible makes inappropriate appearance in Detroit [w/video]

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

With the polar vortex fresh in the minds of Autoblog's Detroit-based staff, we're finding it funny that any manufacturer would choose January in the Motor City to show off a new and highly anticipated convertible to the general media and public for the first time. But Ford has done just that, giving us our first real peek at the new Mustang Convertible in the flesh.
The new Mustang Convertible is more or less unchanged from the standard coupe, with some subtle styling tweaks to accommodate the retractable soft top. Engine and transmission choices are identical to the hardtop, although we should expect slightly lower performance due to the hardware for the roof. Like the coupe, neither prices nor performance metrics have been published yet for the convertible.

Crowdsource funding push on to save historic Ford buildings

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Detroit has no shortage of old, abandoned buildings, both within the city and in the surrounding communities. Few, though, have the historical significance of the old Ford Highland Park facility. Home to the very first moving assembly line, Highland Park was designed by the legendary Albert Kahn, and was one of the homes of the Model T.
Now, the Woodward Avenue Action Association is attempting to buy both the 40,000-square-foot admin building, which is located off the historic Woodward Avenue, and an 8,000-square-foot garage. The WAAA's goal is to convert the buildings into an automotive heritage center. The Detroit News spoke to the interim director of the WAAA, Deborah Schutt, who commented, "[Metro Detroit has] not been very good at telling our own story. So we've decided, let's pull everything together and tell our story."
The WAAA made an offer of $550,000 to buy the two buildings, and has $400,000 from the Michigan Department of Transportation and another $15,000 from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation. It's trying to raise a further $125,000 through crowd-sourcing, starting a campaign called "Five Dollars A Day," after old Hank Ford's $5-per-day wage for line workers.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
