A "now" driver. If it doesn't start in 10 seconds (cold start, or running temperature), $500 off agreed sell price. BODY/PAINT: Very solid frame & body (unrestored; "farmer" respectfully kept condition). That means, didn't push/pull a tractor or push the fence down with it. Couple scratches, dings, decent paint job years ago with some non-peeling crackle. Magnet sticks to everything-all areas of both doors, etc, etc. No accidents. Doors do not fly open hitting bumps or turning corners at 90MPH (of course kidding about cornering @ 90mph, but not about doors staying closed on all cornering). MECHANICALS: Yes, truly starts in 10 seconds or less. NO oil burn smoke *anytime*. Clutch never slips. Never runs hot (does have an auxillary electric cooling fan, but I have never had to turn it on even in Florida scorch time of day). Old tranny is a slow top loader floor shifter, as was expected from new. Brakes are safe. Has an electric fuel pump (w/mechanical in place also as just show). Steering box is smooth original with minimal play ( even new in 1940 it wasn't el perfect tight) & no kinking/rough feels. Tires are not dry rotted. Could use a carb rebuild or removal & tightening of lower gasket screws at some point (little seapage on bottom; doesn't effect performance). No other over-all system leaks as of this writing. Roll up windows work good. Cowl vent opens for that 1940 A/C. ELECTRICS: No shorts. New battery 4 days ago (old one had 2 bad cells). All lights work except maybe dash gauge lights. Oil, charge & added temp gauges work. INTERIOR: New (a pinch of upgrade) seat; cardboard surrounds; interior light added (again, pinch of upgrade); mat; glass, etc. New jeweled/chrome exhaust tips. All glass seals fairly new. OWNERSHIP: requires a knowledge of market, old vehicle mechanicals, & the ability to decide on unique time capsule ownership worth paying for. All others need not apply. If you want a hot rodded, or "up graded" modernized rendition-need NOT apply. For your viewing pleasure, seller, Howard. Call for a GOOD TIME ANTIQUE TRUCK: 904-881-3495. You will not be dissappointed (& if you are looking at these type of relics-won't miss the purchase money; you & your heirs won't be dissappointed). As a great philosopher "Howard" once said: "Time for another time machine". *If u want to own it, gotta step up to the plate & home run it". This is the lowest priced "nice/usable" 1/2 ton on market (believe it or not). Most of you know, what most are expecting depending on conditon of each truck. Doesn't matter how long you wait, the price will still be more than mine. If its restored its $40k. If its a project drive it next year (maybe). If its a correctly & nicely done hot rod, its $40k Make sure the frame is good on others in this period (especially projects; prepare for new frame or cut & paste welding of 2 frames.). They tended to rust up & over the rear axle big time (collapsable potentials). My 1940 for sale has NONE of these frame problems, or make-shift frame support repairs. Buyer: take as long as you want to contemplate ownership. The truck will not desintegrate for at least 300 more years, give or take 100 years..........................
No "second chance offer" at the end of this auction.

Ford moving medium-duty F-Series production from Mexico to Ohio
Thu, 27 Feb 2014
A few more Ford trucks will be built in the US in the near future with news that production of the F-650 and F-750 medium-duty trucks will move from Mexico to Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, OH. Ford hasn't confirmed a precise timeline for the move, but The Detroit News claims the Blue Oval will make the shift later this year or in early 2015.
As Ford spokesperson Mike Levine reminded us, back in 2011, Ford announced in an investor release that it would shift production "after the [Ohio] plant stops current production of the Ford E-Series vans." According to that release, the Ohio factory will also receive $128 million in upgrades to build the new trucks, plus the F53 motorhome chassis and F59 commercial chassis.
Recharge Wrap-up: Ford HQ gets giant solar array, Chevy City Express gets 24 MPG city
Sat, Aug 16 2014Ford will be building Michigan's largest solar array at its Dearborn headquarters. With funding from DTE Energy, the solar carport will provide covered parking, as well 30 charging stations for electric vehicles. The array is expected to generate 1.13 million kWh per year for Ford's operations, and offset 794 metric tons of carbon emissions. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet announced the fuel economy for the 2015 City Express, at 25 mpg combined. The cargo van is rated at 24 mpg in the city, and 26 mpg on the highway. Chevy credits the van's inline four-cylinder engine and continuously variable transmission for its impressive city mileage. For its customers - which are mainly businesses - "The fuel economy of the City Express will help stretch their dollar at the pump and give them the flexibility to invest the savings back into their business," says Chevrolet's Ed Peper. The City Express starts at $22,950. Read more in the press release below. Engineers at the University of Wisconsin have developed an efficient engine that runs on a diesel-gas blend. The engine, which uses a computer to control the blend proportions, is about 15 percent more efficient than the any diesel engine according to mechanical engineering professor Rolf Reitz. The team has put the experimental reactivity controlled compression ignition (RCCI) engine in a demonstration car - a 2009 Saturn. "This vehicle can do 50 miles per gallon," says Reitz, who believes the system could be improved further. Read more at Wisconsin Public Radio. The Southeast Alternative Fuel Conference and Expo will take place in October in Raleigh, North Carolina. Held at the NC Clean Energy Technology Center from October 22-24, the event will feature a variety of exhibitors, speakers and, most importantly, alternatively powered vehicles. "The three day conference will be a one-stop shop for fleet and transportation related decision makers to learn about return on investment, efficiency and alternative transportation fuels such as biodiesel, electricity, ethanol, propane and natural gas," says Anne Tazewell of the NC Clean Energy Technology Center. If you can't make it to Raleigh for the Expo, you can still enter to win a free two-year lease of a Nissan Leaf at the Center's website. Learn more about the event in the press release, below.
Ford Escort is ready to focus on the Chinese market
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Ford officially revived the Escort name in China, showing of the new, four-door compact at the Beijing Motor Show. Painted in a stylish brown-bronze, the new sedan wears a number of global Ford styling cues while sharing its platform with the Ford Focus.
Power for the new model comes from a 1.5-liter four-cylinder, although Ford doesn't specify just how much power is on offer, simply saying that the fuel economy of the new mill will be "outstanding." It's unclear what transmission will be distributing the engine's power, although based on the images we've seen, the Escort will definitely offer a two-pedal setup.
The layout of the cabin is fairly clean, although as we mentioned in our initial post on the new Escort, it's a decidedly sparser environment than we've grown use to in US-spec Fords of late. If anything, it's like a weird blend of current Ford switchgear with an overall look that reminds us of older Ford layouts. Still, it looks like a comfortable way of moving five people about without too much fuss. There's ample space both front and rear, and a rather spacious trunk.
