Very low reserve Here's a 51 ford f-1 with 48 front end. I picked this up as unfinished project, which is how I'm selling it, I was told by previous 10 yr owner that has a 1977 ford rebuilt 460 with cam, auto c-6 trans gone through by local trans shop. The motor and trans starts drives shifts down the road, motor sounds good with no smoke, has a new HEI dist. and a New Aluminum race radiator keeps engine nice and cool no overheating. I would put a electric fan on it and take mech fan off, as it sits above the radiator, could get hand caught if not careful and would cool and look better. The engine sat for a spell so has old gas in it I would change feul filter and put new gas in it. Also does'nt have a choke so you have to pump gas to start. I would put a manual choke on to help with that. Has a 89 s-10 front end with all wheel disc brakes powersteering and power brakes all works well and feels like it goes down the road straight. Did'nt take over 55 mph. Frame has been boxed in the rear, welds look abit sloppy but not too awful, its solid. Has adjustable air bags in the rear. The truck has had body work done in the past, and will need finished. Has new Aluminum fuel cell mounted in rear. No Tailgate Bed was custom made and a nice job. Running boards are custom made look nice but will need bolted better to truck. Has a homemade dual exhaust. Has wheels adapters put on so ford wheels would fit on it. I Believe it wheel run chevy wheels when those are taken off. Tires are in good shape. Have the rear Glass and DS glass is ther but broken, PS glass and mechinism is gone. Having a new windshield made, it will be included in the sale. The doors shut ok but you have to shut the DS door hard for it to latch tight. Seast are Bolted down and sets at a good hieght to drive. Has new Dolpin Guages that seem to work , speedo works, The wiring for radio lights and radio will need finished, and the tailgights are just sitting in place not bolted in. Not sure what lights work and which ones if any do. Radio does'nt power up. Does'nt have a key start, just flip a switch and push button starter. The truck is drivable shifts good, needs a few odds and ends but would make a sweet Big Block truck when complete, or a sweet Ratrod, made to your liking, Comes with a clear open title in previous owners name. The hood is just sitting on truck, it is in rough shape , not sure if it can be repaired or not, I will secure it for transport eight in bed of truck or on truck. May consider trade or buy now offer. Buying this as-is Please ask questions before bidding. 500 deposit 24 hrs after auction final in 5 days certified funds. Pick in 30 days in Kingsville ohio 44048 Right off I-90

Winnebago re-introduces classic Brave RV [w/video]
Fri, Jun 6 2014Winnebago is saying 'Let's do the time warp again,' using its new Brave RV to do it – have a look at the first Winnebago RV from 1966 and you'll know exactly where this one comes from. The modern version of this swinging sixties motorhome is accurate from its size, either 26- or 27-foot version, to its trademark eyebrow above the front windshield. The foldaway bunk above the front seats that necessitated the eyebrow design has been updated, and is now a power bed that descends from the ceiling. It is among a set of standard features that also includes a 19-foot motorized awning, leveling jacks at all four corners, heated mirrors, LED ceiling lights, two available floorplans and detailing like a workstation for the front passenger, a sliding dash cluster and and a waterfall countertop in the kitchen with built-in extensions. The Brave sits on a Ford F53 chassis complete with its Triton V10 engine and five-speed automatic transmission. No word yet on any potential diesel alternatives. Naturally, that 1966 price of $4,000 will also come in for an update, but the company hasn't yet revealed it. The good folks from Winnebago will be happy to take you on a thorough personal tour of the Brave in the video below. This content is hosted by a third party.

Auto investor Kirk Kerkorian dead at 98
Wed, Jun 17 2015Kirk Kerkorian, among the most talked-about investors in the American auto industry in recent memory, died at the age of 98 in Los Angeles on Monday, June 15. The billionaire ran the investment company Tracinda Corp. and was the largest shareholder in MGM Resorts International. Kerkorian attempted to use his power as a well-financed investor to push the auto industry in some fascinating ways. In 2006, he used his nearly 10-percent stake in General Motors to push a merger with the Renault-Nissan Alliance. The deal made it as far as discussions, but eventually fell through. Kerkorian also attempted to purchase Chrysler - twice. According to Automotive News, the first effort came in 1995 with a $22.8-billion offer for the automaker, and soon after it failed the company merged with Daimler. Then in 2007, Kerkorian was back with a bid for $4.5 billion, but things eventually fell to Cerberus. The billionaire finished the trifecta by buying up $1 billion in Ford stock in 2008 to make Kerkorian the single largest investor in the company. However, the situation didn't last long, and by the end of that year, he had unloaded the shares. According to Automotive News, Kerkorian was ranked by Forbes as the world's 41st richest man in 2008 with a net worth of $16 billion.

Ford opens 88 new dealerships in China in a single day
Mon, 23 Jun 2014"Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last year." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China during the first half of 2014." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last month." None of those statements - even the last one - would seem unbelievable. Saying "Ford opened up 88 dealerships in China last Thursday," though, is a bit more dramatic.
Yes, on June 19 alone, Ford opened the doors on nearly 100 showrooms in the People's Republic, boosting the Blue Oval's total presence in the country to 750 dealerships. Of course, while an overabundance of dealers in the US proved troublesome for American manufacturers back in 2008 and 2009, there's no such concern in China. Considering the country's huge population and the breakneck pace of the local auto industry, you could be forgiven for being surprised Ford only has 750 outlets at this stage.
What's notable about this most recent push, besides the sheer volume of new stores, is their location. Over three-quarters of the new dealerships are in so-called Tier 4 cities, which are smaller towns that still contain millions of people. This fits with Ford's strategy in China of avoiding the bigger battlegrounds that are already dominated by competitors and focusing on setting up shop in newer markets that may have been overlooked, according to Automotive News.
