 RARE TRUCK!!! THIS TRUCK IS A 1952 FORD F1 WITH (AS FORD REFERRED TO IT AS) "THE DELUXE FIVE STAR EXTRA CAB PACKAGE"  WHICH MEANS IT CAME WITH STAINLESS TRIM AROUND THE WINDSHIELD AND HOOD SIDES, (ONE HOOD SIDE TRIM MISSING), IT INCLUDED THE INSIDE CAB LIGHT WHICH IS STILL IN PLACE, A LOCKING GLOVE BOX WHICH I STILL HAVE THE KEY FOR, KEYED DOOR LOCKS ON BOTH DOORS, I HAVE THE KEYS FOR THOSE TOO, UPHOLSTERED DOOR PANELS AND ARM REST WHICH ARE STILL THERE BUT NEED ATTENTION, DUAL WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND DUAL SUN VISORS ALL OF WHICH ARE ON THE TRUCK, CIG LIGHTER, TWIN HORNS, FOAM PADDED SEAT AND EXTRA SOUND DEADENING MATERIAL THROUGHOUT THE CAB. IT ALSO CAME WITH A FACTORY INSTALLED GRILL GUARD WHICH IS IN GREAT SHAPE AND HAS KEPT THE GRILL AND HEADLIGHT BEZELS IN PERFECT SHAPE. BOTH DOORS OPEN AND SHUT WITH EASE, THE HOOD OPENS AND SHUTS NICELY BUT HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE FINAL LATCHING. HOOD HINGES WORK GREAT.

THE TRUCK HAS A 239 V-8 FLATHEAD WHICH IS IN THE TRUCK AND COMPLETE.....NOTHING MISSING EXCEPT ONE PLUG WIRE. IT HAS A 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION WHICH SEEMS TO WORK GREAT...THE SHIFTER IS STILL ON THE ORIGINAL STEERING COLUMN. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL TITLE FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AS WELL AS THE REGISTRATION PAPERS UP UNTIL AROUND 1968 WHEN IT WAS PARKED ACCORDING TO ONE OF HIS FAMILY MEMBERS. I BELIEVE THE ENGINE WOULD RUN PERFECT WITH A LITTLE TLC.... I HAVE MARVEL MYSTERY OIL IN THE CYLINDERS AND AM SURE IT WOULDN'T TAKE MUCH TO TURN IT OVER AS THE ENGINE APPEARS TO HAVE NEVER BEEN LEFT OPEN OR TO THE WEATHER. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 11,000 MILES AND THAT MAY VERY WELL BE CORRECT. REAR END IS ORIGINAL AND ROLLS PERFECT.

AS WITH ALL 62 YEAR OLD TRUCKS IT HAS SOME RUST BUT IT'S REALLY NOT BAD AT ALL COMPARED TO MOST I SEE. THE LOWER FRONT FENDERS AT THE RUNNING BOARDS HAVE SOME RUST BUT I HAVE NEW PATCH PANELS FOR BOTH SIDES THAT GO WITH THE TRUCK. ALSO HAS SOME RUST ON THE FRONT FENDERS NEAR THE FRONT BUT SMALL PATCH PANELS WOULD FIX THESE EASILY. THE FLOOR HAS SOME RUST ON THE PASSENGER SIDE ONLY, BUT AGAIN NOT A BIG DEAL. THE RUNNING BOARDS AREN'T VERY GOOD BUT THERE IS A USED SET IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK THAT ARE SOLID WHICH ALSO GO WITH THE TRUCK. IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO BUILD A "PATINA" TRUCK, JUST FIX THE FLOOR BOARD AND LEAVE THE REST....IT'S COOL LIKE IT IS!!!!

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, FEEL FREE TO ASK THEM. THE RESERVE PRICE IS FAIR BUT I'M NOT GOING TO GIVE IT AWAY. THIS IS A RARE NICE TRUCK, SO BID ACCORDINGLY. IF YOU HAVE NO MEANS OF PAYING FOR THE TRUCK, PLEASE DON'T BID..... I'VE HAD MY SHARE OF DEADBEATS OVER THE YEARS... I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION AT ANYTIME PRIOR TO THE RESERVE BEING MET AS IT IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AS WELL....IF YOU'D LIKE TO MAKE A REALISTIC OFFER FOR ME TO END THE AUCTION PLEASE DO SO, BUT PLEASE DON'T ASK WHAT THE RESERVE IS.

I ACCEPT CASH IN PERSON, WIRE TRANSFER FROM YOUR BANK TO MY LOCAL BANK DEALING WITH BANK PRESIDENT, PAYPAL IF YA HAVE TO BUT WOULD RATHER NOT DUE TO THE FEE'S THEY CHARGE BUT IF THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE MOST COMFORTABLE WITH THAT WILL BE FINE, PERSONAL OR BUSINESS CHECK....BUT ALL FUNDS (REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY'RE MADE) MUST CLEAR BEFORE THE TRUCK LEAVES MY PROPERTY.... I'M AN HONEST MAN AND EXPECT THE SAME.....I ASK THAT THE TRUCK BE REMOVED FROM MY PROPERTY ASAP AS I DON'T HAVE THE SPACE TO STORE IT...THERE WILL BE A 30.00 PER DAY CHARGE FOR STORAGE FEE'S AFTER 3 WEEKS FROM SELL DATE UNLESS PRIOR ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE..

Ford Focus ST checks into Jay Leno's Garage

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

In a change of pace from the high-end vehicles that often appear in Jay Leno's Garage, Ford sends its hottest hatchback (in the US, at least), the 252-horsepower Focus ST, to be featured on Leno's show. Accompanying the five-door hatch is its chief engineer, Jamal Hameedi.
Riding on stylish 18-inch wheels with summer tires and with a spoiler that doubles as a lunch tray, Hameedi and Leno walk us through the finer points of what makes the ST special, which also includes bigger brakes, torque vectoring, a manual transmission and, of course, 252 hp and 270 pound-feet of torque from the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, which is made possible by 21 psi of turbocharged boost.
Watch the video below to see what Leno thinks of the global Focus ST.

Ford fixing 130k vehicles in three recalls

Wed, Oct 28 2015

Ford is issuing three new safety campaigns that cover a total of 130,801 vehicles in North America, but the company has no reports of accidents, injuries, or fires from any of these issues. The largest of these campaigns covers 128,823 examples of the 2009-2010 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX that are currently registered or originally sold in rust-prone areas of North America, including 110,636 in the US. On these crossovers, "corrosion under the reinforcement brackets where the fuel tank is mounted" can potentially result in a fuel leak. To fix the issue, dealers will inspect the tank and will repair or replace it as necessary. The affected locations are: Connecticut, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia, Wisconsin; and the Canadian provinces of New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Quebec. Ford is also recalling 1,906 North American examples of the 2016 Mustang, including 1,900 in the US, because of possible damage to some components during shipping to the factory. On the affected pony cars, "dealers will replace front and rear seat belt assemblies, rear seat buckle assemblies, and child tethers," the company says in its statement. Finally, the smallest campaign is for 72 units of the 2016 Ford E-Series cutaway and chassis cab in North America, including 65 in the US. On these, the trailer brakes don't activate when pressing the brake pedal, and dealers need to update the powertrain control module software.

Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy

Tue, 07 May 2013

With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
