I bought this truck and was told it is a 1942.  I have not checked the VIN on the frame to confirm this.  With the truck came a 1947 Frame with an Idaho Title.  These trucks also usually had the VIN number on a data plate attached to the inside of the glove box door.  I have the door and data plate with the VIN for the 1947 Title that matches the extra frame. 

The extra frame has all of the running gear except the motor.  The motor in the complete pickup is a six cylinder but I have not tried to turn it over.  It looks to be complete except for the air cleaner.  If you look at the pictures, you will notice the extra frame has 4 tires that hold air.  The truck has one or two that will hold air.  This has a 5 hole bolt pattern that is larger than a 1/2 ton Ford pickup.  These are 17” Split rims so however the truck is loaded it only has 5 or 6 tires that hold air.  The distance between the studs center to center of the stud is 4 inches.  And the studs are big. 

The truck has no glass in it except for broken glass in the door windows.  I picked 6 or 8 rocks out of the cab that took care of the windows.  I tried to show the rust hole in the floor.  I would plan on some work there.  The cab has rust in the cab corners but the doors look good.  The bed, other than dents and some cut out holes is not too rusty.  The wood is bad.  I tried to show the worst of the dents on the roof where it looks as if someone got on top.  All in all not a bad cab.  The wheelbase of this truck is 122 inches.  I thought it would probably fit on a later S10 or full sized pickup frame?? That’s where the glove box VIN might be handy.  That’s what I had planned to do with it but, as my wife told me, I have more projects already than I will get done in my lifetime.  Unfortunately she is right. If you plan to use the original frame the gentleman I got it from told me he understood the brakes had been re-done on the 47 frame.  I have not had anything apart to look at that so cannot confirm.

Extra parts include a hood with the latching mechanism and Ford trim, extra set of front fenders, inner fender panels, and grill.  I do have the side trim for the hood and a decent front bumper is in the bed.  Also I have what I believe is a decent gas tank that someone plugged the inlet to prevent water from entering. I also have a set of headlight trim rings and park light rings.  If you have any specific questions just ask.  I will be happy to help get it loaded to the best of my ability. 

I require $500.00 via Paypal within 48 hours and rest before or when picked up.

Just in time for the holidays, Snowkhana 3 is here

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The gift list for the 12 Days of Christmas is frightfully heavy on birds, so surely no one will mind if we sub out the three French hens for Snowkhana 3. Ford of Europe is back with another stop-motion video that – like versions one and two – throws a 1:64-scale Ford Fiesta in Ken Block livery around a fabulous world of action figures and make believe. This year's video "drives rings around some of the biggest YouTube hits," so those of you who've lost years of your lives to the greatest distraction since the human navel can put your knowledge to use. For anyone else just catching up, we'll help you get rolling: the opening Snowkhana scene channels Stalking Cat. You'll find the rest of your holiday homework in the video.

Ford partnering with MIT, Stanford on autonomous vehicle research

Fri, 24 Jan 2014

Ask any car engineer what's the biggest variable in achieving fuel economy targets, and he'll tell you "the driver." If one human can't understand human driving behavior enough to be certain about an innocuous number like miles per gallon, how is an autonomous car supposed to figure out what hundreds of other drivers are going to do in the course of a day? Ford has enlisted the help of Stanford and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to find out.
Starting with the automated Fusion Hybrid introduced in December, MIT will be developing algorithms that driverless cars can use to "predict actions of other vehicles and pedestrians" and objects within the three-dimensional map provided by its four LIDAR sensors.
The Stanford team will research how to extend the 'vision' of that LIDAR array beyond obstructions while driving, analogous to the way a driver uses the entire width of a lane to see what's ahead of a larger vehicle in front. Ford says it wants to "provide the vehicle with common sense" as part of its Blueprint for Mobility, preparing for an autonomous world from 2025 and beyond.

Forza Horizon 3 car list keeps on truckin'

Tue, Aug 9 2016

We've covered three weeks of car reveals for Forza Horizon 3, and this time we get a better look at the trucks, SUVs and other off-roaders you'll be able to use to explore Australia. This week's list kicks things off with two of the most legendary off-roaders in the world, the Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser and the Meyers Manx. They have different purposes; the FJ40 is for tough trail work and the Manx is for some light-hearted beach fun. But no one could deny the cultural importance of either. And both should be a blast in Horizon 3. In addition to this pair of classics, players will have a chance to get behind the wheel of both a race version of the Ford F-150 Raptor and its closest rival, the Ram Runner. And when traditional vehicles start to get boring, why not take out a full-blown Baja racer such as the Penhall Cholla or the Rockstar energy drink version of the little Polaris RZR XP 1000 side-by-side? Forza Horizon 3 is shaping up to have one of the most diverse car lists in a racing game in a long time. There are still cars left to be revealed, so stay tuned for further installments and see this week's full list below. 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2002 Ferrari 575M Maranello 1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth 2013 Ford Focus ST 1973 Ford Escort RS1600 1971 Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase III 2014 Ford Fiesta ST 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor Race Truck 1954 Jaguar XK120 SE 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 1986 Lancia Delta S4 2009 Lexus IS F 1957 Maserati 300 S 1994 Mazda MX-5 Miata 1967 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series 1971 Meyers Manx 2012 Mini John Cooper Works GP 1998 Nissan R390 1979 Opel Kadett C GT/E 2011 Penhall The Cholla 1971 Plymouth Cuda 426 Hemi 2015 Polaris RZR XP 1000 EPS Rockstar Edition 2013 Ram Runner 1993 Renault Clio Williams 1990 Subaru SVX 1979 Toyota FJ40 2005 TVR Sagaris 1990 Vauxhall Lotus Carlton Related Video: News Source: Playground Games / MicrosoftImage Credit: Playground Games / Microsoft Auto News Toys/Games Ford RAM Toyota forza exclusive ford f-150 raptor forza horizon forza horizon 3 toyota fj40 meyers manx
