1950 Ford F-1 Pickup with Clear Title. This Truck was customized some years ago. The restoration or resto-modification was started and about half way complete, when the owner passed away. The truck sat is storage for years and was recently completed. The Modifications consist of a modern V-8 Chevrolet Engine. The Engine is a 1960's model Chevrolet 283. It was refreshed with new internals, including Oil Pump and Timing Set and Seals and Gaskets. This is a low mileage engine and the Bore and Bearings were good, so it was not Bored or Turned. Everything inside is standard. The 283 has a Holley Manifold, Holley Valve Covers and Holley 4 Barrel Carburetor. The Engine also got an Accel Electronic Distributor and new Wires. The truck got a 5 Speed Manual Transmission from a 1990 Chevrolet Pickup. I believe this transmission is called an NV-3500. This gives the truck 5 gears and a Hydraulic Clutch. Along with the Transmission, the truck got a new Flywheel, Clutch and Throwout Bearing. A new Driveshaft was fabricated by a local Driveshaft and clutch shop. This was a little expensive, but so much better than hacking a couple of old driveshafts together. The Truck already had a later model Ford Differential, giving it a more street friendly set of gears. The Truck was changed over to 12 Volts and got a GM 1 Wire 90 Amp Alternator. There are also lots of other new parts including Starter and Fuel Pump. There is much more. The Truck now has Power Brakes with Discs in the front. Everything in the brake System was replaced, including Master Cylinder, Rear Wheel Cylinders, Shoes, Lines, Hoses and more. The Truck has Headers and Dual Exhaust that turns down near the center of the Bed. The Frame is very solid and is painted Black. The Body is solid with a little rust, here and there. The Cab has all new Glass and Window Seals. All of the Door Windows open and close properly. The Seat is a Vintage Ford Truck Seat that looks good with the Truck color. It was recovered some time in the 1960s or 1970s, but still looks good. The Seat is not perfect. It has some wear and tear from the years, but is just too cool to recover. The Truck has an Oldsmobile Tilt Steering Column and the High, Low Beam Lights, Turn Signals and Emergency Flashers all work through the Stock Column controls. The Gauges all work. The Fuel Gauge works properly. The Oil Pressure and Temperature Gauges seem to work backwards. I believe this to be because the truck was originally positive ground, but that is just a guess! The Speedometer was replaced with a tach. There is a power port installed on the dash. This is a good place to insert a power cord for your GPS. The GPS will give you an accurate speed reading. The truck also got a new Headliner and various other new parts from Dennis Carpenter. The Doors open and close well. I am posting pictures of the Cab Corners and Door Bottoms to show their condition. The Front Fenders are Fiberglass. The Hood, Grill and Center Section are Steel. There is a sheet of Steel, welded in the Bed. The Tail Gate is original and in good condition. The Tail Gate does need one Hinge to work properly. There is no Rear Bumper. The Wheels and Tires have only a few hundred miles on them. The Wheels are Chrome Reverse with Baby Moon Hub Caps and in good condition, not mint condition. They are all 15s, but the front Wheels and Tires are smaller than the backs. This gives the truck a lower look, in the front. The Truck has an attractive look with nice artwork on the door and a nice Patina effect. It is not a show truck, but a fun cruiser that gets plenty of attention. I tried to describe the truck well. I am sure I left out some things. I will try to answer any questions through email. I may be able to assist with delivery within a few hundred miles of Canton, Ohio. This Truck is being listed with a low start price and no reserve. It will sell to the highest bidder. Please look closely at the pictures. They are part of the listing.

Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes B-Class Electric Drive is a rock star, FedEx tests electric trucks
Thu, Oct 2 2014The Mercedes-Benz B-Class Electric Drive is in a new music video for I Lived by OneRepublic. The band's singer, Ryan Tedder, has also been brought on as a brand ambassador for the German automaker. OneRepublic will also be performing the song at the Mercedes-Benz Media Night on the eve of the Paris Motor Show. No word if Mercedes plans to offer hordes of screaming teenage fans as an option package with the B-Class Electric Drive. See the video (the car shows up around the four-minute mark) or read more in the press release below. FedEx is testing converted electric delivery trucks with diesel range extenders. Looking to shrink its carbon footprint, the company has converted a handful of trucks as part of a pilot program. In addition to battery packs, each truck is equipped with diesel turbine generators (supplied by Ian Wright's company, Wrightspeed) to provide electricity when the battery is depleted. Because the diesel motors aren't powering the vehicle directly, they can continuously run at their most efficient speed, making the trucks about twice as efficient as those powered by traditional means. Read more at Wired. Ford's new aluminum-bodied F-150 will be 5 to 20 percent more efficient, the company says. The fuel economy gains depend on the particular version of the truck, but the biggest improvement will likely come from the 3.5-liter V6 and the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V-6. Automotive News predicts the F-150 SFE to be rated at 21 mpg city/28 highway/23 combined, which are identical figures to the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel. The result could be a noteworthy fuel economy battle between Ford and Ram trucks. Learn more at Automotive News. The US Department of Energy is providing $25 million in funding toward reducing the price of algal biofuels. The goal is to get the price of these renewable fuels below $5 per gasoline gallon equivalent (gge) by 2019, and less than $3 per gge by 2030. The money will fund projects to develop better algal cultures that produce biofuel and other useful bioproducts, and projects to boost biomass productivity. The DOE says it wants to help develop a "bioeconomy" that provides jobs, helps the environment and ensures energy security. Read more at Energy.gov. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford, GM still doing new business with Takata amidst airbag crisis
Thu, Nov 20 2014Lengthy vehicle development times make it difficult for automakers to cut and run from the supplier. You might expect automakers to be fleeing any connection with beleaguered supplier Takata in the wake of the company's exploding airbag inflator crisis. After all, with a Senate hearing, pending lawsuit, plummeting stock value and demand for a national recall, the tier-one supplier isn't at its strongest right now. However, years of cooperation mean that automakers are standing by Takata, and necessity may be playing a role, as well. About 39 percent of Takata's business comes from airbags, and seatbelts make up another significant chunk of the operation too, says Bloomberg. The long-term relationships and lengthy vehicle development times make it difficult for automakers to cut and run from the supplier. "Takata has so much product breadth that I don't really see that they could just disappear," said AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan to Bloomberg. For example, Takata helped develop the unique front center airbag with General Motors in models like the Chevrolet Traverse and Buick Enclave. Outside of safety tech, it is also a partner with Ford on the adaptive steering system available on the upcoming 2015 Edge. These long-lasting partnerships make change difficult now that there's a problem. According to Reuters, automakers claim it would take a year or longer to set up with a different supplier for replacement airbag inflators. Switching to a completely different part for the repairs might not be a viable option either, because of the engineering time needed. BMW is taking action, though. According to Reuters, the Bavarian brand is working with the supplier to move inflator production from Monclova, Mexico, to a Takata factory in Freiburg, Germany. The Mexican plant may be the source of some of the faulty parts. News Source: Bloomberg, ReutersImage Credit: Jens Meyer / AP Photo BMW Ford GM Safety Takata airbag recall
Ford reveals all-new Everest SUV at Asia-Pacific forum [w/poll]
Thu, 13 Nov 2014While the Explorer may have shifted from a truck-based sport-ute to a car-based crossover, Ford still offers buyers on the other side of the Pacific a Ranger-based SUV in the form of the Everest. And at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in Beijing today, the Blue Oval revealed the all-new version you see here.
Previewed in concept form over a year ago and made specifically for the Asia-Pacific market, the new Ford Everest is designed to be more refined on the road and more capable off of it. Like the Explorer once was, the new Everest is based on a stretched version of the overseas Ford Ranger pickup. Depending on the specific market, Ford will offer the new Everest with a range of engines including a 2.0-liter EcoBoost turbo four and two Duratorq turbodiesels - a 2.2-liter four and a 3.2-liter inline-five - mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.
Earmarked to take on the likes of the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado (known in these parts as the Lexus GX) and the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the new Everest promises rock-crawlers even better off-road capabilities. It's got nearly nine inches of ground clearance, over 30 inches of wading depth, a 29-degree approach and 25-degree departure angles and a set of features including on-the-fly adjustable four-wheel drive.
