This 1953 Ford pick-up is being sold in the condition in which I bought it.  Wanted it as a project and never had time to work on it, though it was off to a good start when I got it.  Chasis, suspension, wheels and brakes are all in good shape. The 305 V8 Chevy engine runs good.  This is definitly a drivable vehicle and I have used it to get to work on a regular basis. The three speed automatic transmission needs some work.  It makes a ticking sound in first gear, and it shifts a little hard.  Fluid has leaked from the bellhousing at times.

Body work and paint job had been done by the previous owner, but over the last three years some chips and cracks have developed and there are a couple rust bubbles begining.  Both driver and passenger side windows work, but the passenger side vent mirror is broken.  The right side bed side panel has a small hole. (paint chips, rust, and damage seen in pics)
Bed boards have been replaced and are in good condition, but unfinished.  There is no tail gate.
The interior has been repainted red.  Original bench seat has been recovered in red vinyl.  The cardboard door panels and kick panels are warped from moisture, but the paint underneath is good.  New Dolphin gauges are set in wood and all work, but speedometer needs to be recalibrated.  Most interior accesories are missing, (i.e. rearview, visors, knobs)  Heater and windshield wipers are not functional.  Head lights and LED tail lights work, but after a recent storm, the turning blinkers shorted out.  There are some wireing issues beween the ignition switch and the starter motor and some times I have to give it a quick jump to get it started.
I like this truck a lot and love driving it around town, but like I said, I never had time to work on it.  It would make a great project and, with a little work, would make a good "rat rod" style truck or even a daily driver.
additional pictures available upon request.  Please feel free to email me any questions you might have.

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]

Sun, 16 Jun 2013

In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.

Toyota Camry, Honda Civic inventories mounting as US automakers make inroads

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Two of the hottest-selling cars in America aren't quite as hot as they used to be. The Toyota Camry and Honda Civic are both seeing dealer supplies increase in the face of renewed competition from the much-improved Detroit Three.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the Camry's dealer inventory is 15 days higher than its seasonal average, while the Civic is 25 days above average. Things aren't expected to get better for Toyota and Honda, as RBC Capital Markets analyst Joseph Spak marked the two Japanese offerings as "at risk for reduced output."
The Detroit Three, meanwhile, are seeing supplies dwindle as demand increases, especially for the Ford Fusion, which has seen an 18-percent increase in 2013 sales, and the Chevrolet Cruze, which was second only to the Camry in June 2013 sales.

Lego provides one of the cheapest ways to own a Bugatti Chiron

Tue, Jan 3 2017

Just over a month ago, we got a look at one of the latest Lego Speed Champions sets when Ford revealed the GT and GT40 kit. Now we get to see the rest of the lineup, and it's chock full of F1 and supercar goodness. The official Lego images show that the Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Ferrari FXX K, and F1 cars from Ferrari and Mercedes all made the cut. Each set gets some unique features and most include interchangeable wheel covers. The Chiron comes with some tiny cones suitable for desk slaloms and the Mercedes-AMG GT3 gets an alternate nose. The FXX K comes has the most impressive selection of accessories, though, as it includes a dyno and engine run stand. The F1 sets are divided similarly, but with Mercedes getting more extras. The Brick Fan also reports that the Mercedes kit may be exclusive to select stores. The Ferrari kit only comes with a starting light, but the Mercedes set includes a garage, starting lights, and winner's circle. It'll be up to you whether you put Hamilton or Rosberg in that winner's circle. According to The Brick Fan, these kits are set for release in winter 2017. Since the Ford GT set has a release of March 1, we expect the rest will hit stores in the next couple of months. They're sure to be great additions to anyone's existing Lego garage.
