For sale are these 1942-1947 Ford 1/2 ton pickup body panels from a dry Montana truck - they are the only pieces for sale, not the chassis. I bought this for the frame and don't know much about the body except what I have to say here.

Montana metal is the best! No road salt, dry climate - most of the original paint is still on the body! Why fight rust when you don't have too? If you blasted these, you'd have some solid parts to work with. Look at what these parts go for repro/used and you'll see this is a good package deal.

Obviously, ask questions and shoot me an offer.

You get:

1) Cab - very nice shape, only surface rust except cab floors (floors are rusty and need replacement panels), solid firewall/drip rails/window frames, uncut dash, includes valuable gauge cluster (not reproduced) and heater, comes with seat back springs (nice shape, still with some covering) but no bottom cushion, gas tank, reproduction passenger door (no drivers). I believe this cab fits 1937-47, but please check yourself.

2) Bed - fairly straight, has spare tire carrier, original metal floor covering, no tailgate, no wood subfloor. I believe this bed fits 1942-50 half tons, but please check yourself.

3) Rear Fenders - these aren't even reproduced except in fiberglass - no cancer but would need plenty of work repairing dents and tears

4) Running Boards - each has a 2 inch hole where pipe was welded on sticking upwards (not sure why), serviceable but would also need work

Buyer is encouraged to inspect these in person; located in Belgrade, Montana, near Bozeman. Parts are sold as-is and where-is and buyer is responsible for asking questions before bidding, and for shipping. You get no title, frame or running gear with this, only the parts listed above. I require a $500 PayPal deposit and the balance in cash upon picking up the parts, which are loose from the frame and ready to load. I will be happy to answer any inquiries. Thanks! 406-594-3075

Ford tells Congress it collects and protects some driver data

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

Last month Ford's Jim Farley made waves at the CES when it was reported he told show attendees, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone." Farley and Ford later partially retracted and clarified that statement.
Spurred by a desire for further transparency on data collection policies, Ford representatives answered questions from Congress, specifically Senator Al Franken (D-Minn.), about driver privacy.
The Detroit News reports that Ford told Congress it does collect some vehicle location data in an effort to "troubleshoot and improve our products" on behalf of the driver. Ford went on to say that it only collects limited data after receiving permission from owners.

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.
