1948 "f1" Ford Pickup on 2040-cars
Portland, Michigan, United States
|
I have owned this truck for 20 years. Purchasing it in August of 1994 from a man that brought it to Michigan from Soddy-Daisy, Tennessee. It has the factory 6-Volt electrical sys., the 226 cu.in., 6-Cylinder, 95 hp, flathead engine, with 6.8:1 compression ratio, 1 barrel carb., 3.73:1 axle ration and the "Non"- Synchromesh factory 4-speed transmission w/ granny gear. The restoration was done in 1993, when the flat glass was replaced, fiberglass running boards were installed, red oak bed boards installed and the truck was painted in single stage Black. I have had the carb, generator and radiator rebuilt, along with having the gas tank dipped & coated. Replaced the distributor cap, rotor, points, plugs & wires along with the belt and hoses ( general tune-ups ) over the years. I added a Dennis Carpenter 'RED' headliner / kick panel kit, along with beauty rings and hub caps and a quality 'California' brand truck cover. Note: The engine runs strong but is wound tight between 55- 60 mph with the factory flathead power train and the factory 3.73:1 gear. Last but not least I have all receipts dating back to 1993. PS: Note to those of you who I have told I would re-list the truck on June 25th. I have been changing over to a new Internet Provider. If any of you are entertaining this 'think it over again', this is the first day in 5 days that I have been able to connect to the internet for any extended period of time. It will drive you nuts ! |

Ford reveals EcoBoost-powered Riley prototype for Daytona 24
Tue, 01 Oct 2013It's not the first time Ford has participated in the Daytona Prototype class as an engine supplier, but in revealing this new EcoBoost V6-powered Riley Technologies prototype for the new United SportsCar Championship, Ford is making a statement: "We want to show Ford EcoBoost's capabilities as an engine that provides both performance and fuel economy, on and off the track," says Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing.
In addition to supplying the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, Ford had its production designer Garen Nicoghosian give the racecar brand-inspired design cues with support from Ford Racing chief aerodynamicist Bernie Marcus.
The car is scheduled to compete at next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25-26, but before that, Michael Shank Racing is working with Ford at another goal. Driving his Ford Thunderbird, NASCAR champion Bill Elliott set the track's top speed record at 210.364 miles per hour during a qualifying run for the Daytona 500 - way back in 1987 -- and Ford thinks it's about time for that record to fall. What better time the introduction of this new Ford-powered Daytona Prototype? Michael Shank Racing plans to use the twin-turbo V6-powered racer to beat Elliott's record, and it expects to begin prepping for the top-speed run on October 9. Scroll down for the full press release below on Ford's latest race effort.

A tribute to William Clay Ford
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
