1950 Ford F1 Pickup Truck, Nice Solid Body, V8 Flathead on 2040-cars
Acworth, Georgia, United States
1950 Ford F-1 Truck I got this truck from a lady, and it was her great grand fathers truck, and it appears to have been keep inside most of it life because it is so solid. The wood in the bed appears to be the original wood, and it is still in good solid condition. It has the original ford windshield, one vent window, and back glass, but the back glass needs to be replaced because it has a crack in it. The V8 flathead runs great, and doesn't smoke, you just hit the starter, and it fires right up, and the brakes are in working condition. I just changed the oil, oil filter, and spark plugs. It has the rarer 3-speed on the column, you just don't see many 48 to 50 ford trucks with this option most where floor shift. It has a older repaint in the original color, and it still looks good with the normal paint chips here and there. The body is in great solid condition with no rust repair are patch panels, it does have some small beginning places that are in the lower front of both doors, and one small spot in the lower right front fender just below the grill, but these places are small, but did want to point them out, I took pictures of these three small areas. All the fenders where they meet the running boards are solid, and rust free. All the doors, hood, windows, and front air vent work as they should. Everything works except the speed-o-meter, the gauges, heater, lights, and wiper all work. The gas tank, and radiator are clean, and in great condition. The front rims, and spare are the original ford 15" rims, but the rear rims are a later 15", the tires need to be replaced if you are going to drive it on the road, they have some dry rot, and some flat spots from sitting in the garage for the past 7 years. The truck is being sold on a bill of sale only, but I can get a current Georgia tag for it if you need it to get a tag are title in your state. Georgia didn't have titles until 63 so I can't get a title for it. All zero feedback bidders please check with me before bidding are I will have to cancel your bid. I reserve the right to end the auction early. If you have any questions you can email me are call my cell at 404-867-3163 |

New UAW boss Williams talks tough, vows 'no more concessions'
Sun, 08 Jun 2014Dennis Williams, the newly elected president of the UAW, had some tough words for American automakers in his inauguration speech at the 2014 UAW Convention, striking down the possibility of any additional concessions from the 400,000-strong union.
"No more concessions. We are tired of it. Enough is enough," Williams said during his speech. UAW employees have not received a raise in nearly 10 years, according to Reuters.
Considering the recent strong results for Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, the union's demands are likely to carry a bit more weight in next year's negotiations. And considering Williams' tough stance, we could be in for some fireworks once negotiations commence.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
Ford Mustang GT Bi-Fuel CNG
Tue, 23 Jul 2013Highly intrigued, we recently visited a Southern California Gas Company office to check out several hybrid vehicles promising something new. Unlike more commonplace gasoline-electric hybrids, we were there to evaluate innovative gasoline-compressed natural gas (CNG) hybrids - yes, they run on unleaded gasoline and compressed natural gas. According to the experts on hand, this arrangement delivers extended range and reduced emissions while chipping in with lower operating costs than pure-gasoline vehicles. There are advantages over its gasoline-electric counterparts, as well.
The program is part of a three-way collaboration between The Carlab, a Southern California-based automotive consulting firm, Landi Renzo USA, a company specializing in alternative fuel solutions, and America's Natural Gas Alliance, a group that promotes CNG. Long story short, the team has engineered a way to allow a modified internal combustion vehicle to seamlessly switch between two fuels (gasoline and CNG) with no driver intervention. In theory, and if it works as well as promised, it's a win-win for the vehicle owner and the environment.
Parked at the Gas Company office were six different gasoline-CNG hybrid vehicles. To demonstrate the technology's versatility (just about any gasoline vehicle may be modified) Carlab brought a varied assortment of bodystyles, each from a different automaker. After taking a quick glance at the half-dozen in the parking lot, we made a beeline for the performance-oriented Ford Mustang GT - a 2012 model - with the six-speed manual gearbox.
