1950 FORD F1 V8 FLATHEAD 3 SPEED MANUAL WITH 373 GEAR REAREND. THIS TRUCK WAS RESTORED IN 1997 BY MR. PAGANS , BUT HE SOON PASSED AWAY. IT WAS GIVEN TO HIS SON IN 1997 AND PARKED IN HIS GARAGE. OVER THE LAST 16 YEARS HE PUT 2000 MILES ON THE TRUCK AND BASICALLY FORGOT ABOUT IT. I PURCHASED THE TRUCK FROM HIM AND PUT A NEW ALUMINUM 3 CORE RADIATOR ON IT, NEW SPARK PLUGS, WIRES, DISTRIBUTOR PARTS, FUEL PUMP, BATTERY, ALL WHEEL CYLINDERS, SOME BRAKE LINES, BOTH THERMOSTATS , AND ONE MANIFOLD GASKET. THIS IS NOT A SHOW TRUCK THERE ARE SOME FLAWS OM THE 16 YEAR OLD PAINT JOB. THIS TRUCK HARDLY HAS ANY RUST AT ALL. THERE IS A SMALL AMOUNT IN THE FRONT FENDERS AND SOME ON BACK FENDER. I DONT THINK ALL TOGETHER THEY ARE AS BIG AS MY HAND. I DROVE THIS TRUCK ALL WEEKEND AND ALL GAUGES FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE SPEEDO DOES NOT WORK , BUT I PLAN ON ADDRESSING THAT ISSUE BUT NO PROMISES. IT TRACKS PERFECT, STOPS GREAT AND STARTS EVERY TIME. IT HAS VACUUM WIPERS THAT WORK BUT ARE WEAK. IT HAS A MODERN CD PLAYER AND SPEAKERS (UNDER SEAT). THE INTERIOR LOOKS GREAT AND WINDOWS ROLL DOWN WITH TWO FINGERS. THEY ARE THAT EASY. THE UNDERNEATH OF THIS TRUCK IS SOLID WITH NO RUST EXCEPT TWO FENDER BRACES THAT EASILY REMOVE AND YOU CAN REPLACE FOR LESS THAN 50 DOLLARS. THE DOORS OPEN PERFECT AND SHUT FLAWLESSLY. ALL THE GLASS IS PERFECT EXCEPT FOR WINDSHIELD THAT WAS CRACKED IN 97 WHEN INSTALLED. THIS IS TRULY A RARE BARN FIND THAT I HAVE DONE ALL THE MECHANICAL WORK AND IT RUNS GREAT. THE TIRES STILL HAVE KNOBBIES ON THE SIDE AND THIS TRUCK CLEANS UP WELL. WHEN MR. PAGANS SON WAS WILLED THIS CAR IN 97 HE WENT AND BOUGHT A CHEAP TENT TYPE NYLON CARPORT THAT THE WIND BLEW INTO THE TRUCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND SCRATCHED THE PAINT. THE SON PUT PRIMER OVER SCRATCHES TO ENSURE THEY DID NOT RUST. THE BED WOOD IS A 6 OUT OF A TEN BUT COULD USE SANDING DOWN AND NEW VARNISH. IT HAS TRUE DUAL EXHAUST COMING OUT OF THE REAR. IF YOU ARE SEEKING A GREAT DRIVER THIS IS IT. ITS NOT SHOW QUALITY BUT IT IS ONE OF THE MOST SOLID 50 FORDS I HAVE SEEN IN A LONG TIME. DONT MISS THIS THE RESERVE IS LOW.

Uber hopes facilities in Detroit will help shape its autonomous future
Mon, Sep 19 2016Hot off the heels of unleashing its fleet of self-driving vehicles in Pittsburgh, PA, Uber announced plans to open a new facility in the Detroit, MI area, reports Automotive News. The new facility was announced at an event hosted by Society of Automotive Engineers in Detroit, MI. Uber's vice president of global vehicle programs Sherif Marakby revealed the news, reports Automotive News. The facility is meant to help the ride-sharing company collaborate with suppliers and automakers in the area. There's no word on where Uber will build the new facility or how big it will be, as those factors have yet to be determined. Just like Pittsburgh, PA, Detroit, MI could become another testing ground for the ride-sharing company. The latest move to open a facility in the Detroit area comes after Uber offered users in Pittsburgh the chance to ride in one of its autonomous vehicle as it looks to gain vital real-world testing. Uber is utilizing a fleet of modified Ford Fusions. Earlier this year in April, the automaker announced a partnership with Google, Lyft, Uber, and Volvo to develop autonomous cars. A new facility in Detroit would strengthen the partnership and help Uber, as well as Ford put autonomous vehicles on the road faster.

Ford F-150 SVT Raptor sales jumping to new heights
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Ford can't seem to build F-150 SVT Raptors fast enough. The off-road-ready trucks have been one of the Blue Oval's most reliable sellers, with record sales in eight of the last 10 months and a 14-percent jump in 2013. That's impressive enough, considering that the least expensive Raptor starts at $44,000. Factor in the modded F-150's fuel economy (it's rated at 11 miles per gallon in the city and 16 on the highway) and a national average gas price, as of this writing, of $3.55 per gallon, and its success is as unlikely as Ford's home team, the Detroit Lions, winning the Super Bowl this year (sorry, Lions fans, we're just quoting the experts in Vegas...).
Yet for some reason, Raptors spend an average of just 15 days on dealer lots before being snapped up, which is a quarter of the 60-day industry average. According to Ford's truck group marketing manager, Doug Scott, it's capability that keeps the Raptor selling strong. "What's helping drive Raptor sales is that Raptor delivers unmatched off-road performance to our customers. Raptor is also proof of our commitment to offer a truck for every customer and continuously improving them to meet our customers' evolving needs."
To address the strong demand for Raptors, Ford will bump production from three trucks per hour to five. Not much, we agree. But building an extra 48 trucks per day, at most, seems like a prudent way of addressing demand without oversaturating what is ultimately a niche market. Check out the press release below for more.
