46 Ford Pickup With Title Ratrod Project Patina on 2040-cars
Year:1946
Mileage:0
Location:
|
1946 Ford pickup. I have a clean Missouri title in my name. The V.I.N. on the title matches the number on the frame and the transmission. You will get a frame that is in good shape, the rear of the frame has some damage to the cross member and the rear frame rails have bit of damage. I don't think it is very serious and could be fixed easily. There is a banjo rear end mounted in the frame, it spins freely. I will include an 8.8 Ford rear end with 3:73 gears and a limited slip that came out of a 96 Explorer with a 5.0. I have two drive shafts, one for the 8.8 and another one that came with the truck. The front axle is a straight axle with drum brakes. The brakes do not work on the front or rear. I have it sitting on four tires that hold air so that it can be rolled around. The cab is in need of work, there are no floors except where the seat should be, there is no seat or interior of any kind. I have braced up the cab and tack welded the doors shut to help keep the cab in shape. It has a dash and instrument panel, though the gauges are in sad shape. The steering column has been removed I will include it but it is not really any good. There is no door glass and the window and door latches are inoperative and may be missing most of the mechanisms. There are no door handles. The right side windshield is there but foggy, the drivers side windshield is missing. Some of the windshield frame is still there. The rear glass is missing. The bed needs a floor and has a lot of dents and dings, the tailgate is there but has no way of making it functional without some fabrication work. The bed will need to be braced and rebuilt. The rear fenders are missing. There are no tail lights. The truck has no wiring or electrical system at all. The front clip has fenders and inner fenders and a grill. They are all dented and are in need of work, it does have headlights I don't know if they are any good though. I have running boards, they are in need of work. This truck needs everything, it is truly a project and it is completely covered with surface rust, I planned to make it a rat rod, but time and funding problems have forced my hand. I have other projects going so it is time to thin the herd. Please keep in mind that this is a disassembled non running vehicle that will need everything to make it roadworthy. There is no engine included but I do have the original transmission with V.I.N. stamped on it that matches the frame, I do not know the condition of the transmission. I have other parts that came with the truck that i will include, some of them may be useful others not so much. This truck will need to be towed. since it is in numerous pieces the buyer will need to come pick it up. I will help you load it, but the buyer is responsible for all shipping charges. Sold as is where is. Feel free to ask any questions, if I haven't covered it here.

Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.
Ford Fiesta rally car warms up in Sweden
Tue, 18 Mar 2014Rallycross is seeing a sudden surge in popularity with two series bringing the racing to the US and Europe. The Ford OMSE team is competing in both championships this season, and it saw no reason not to hold practice with a highly modified Fiesta in the snow of Northern Sweden. It brought together Andreas Bakkerud from the European-focused FIA World Rallycross Championship and Patrik Sandell from the North American-focused Global Rallycross series for some training and fun. They certainly appear to be enjoying themselves, too, with some lovely pirouettes in the powder.
If you're unfamiliar with rallycross, the discipline combines the best of rallying and circuit racing. Drivers (with no co-drivers) race rally cars over a circuit that generally mixes dirt and asphalt, and unlike traditional rallying, multiple cars compete side-by-side at once. Even better, it's often a very two-fisted form of motorsports with lots of car-to-car contact. Global Rallycross and World Rallycross will both kick off their seasons in May. With spring on the way, scroll down to watch the Fiesta kick up some of the last snow drifts of the year.
2015 Ford F-150 brings big aluminum to the Rust Belt [w/video]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014Just when you thought you'd figured the fullsize truck market out, Ford goes and throws us a massive curve ball with the 2015 F-150. The big headline news aren't tow or payload ratings, though we're sure those figures will be fully competitive if not class leading, they haven't yet been announced. Instead, the big headline news Ford is highlighting are the truck's new aluminum-intensive structure and 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
And with good reason - all that aluminum means that Ford was able to cut a massive 700 pounds from the truck's curb weight. That is going to cause all sorts of great things to happen to the 2015 F-150's driving dynamics, performance and fuel efficiency, not to mention its ability to haul heavy loads. For those customers worried about the strength of aluminum versus the more conventional steel, Ford is quick to point out that many military vehicles, such as the HMMWV and Bradley Fighting Vehicle, use a very similar sort of aluminum alloy in their construction.
It's also worth mentioning that the backbone, a fully boxed ladder frame, is hewn from high-strength steel. Ford says "2015 Ford F-150 is the strongest and most durable F-150 ever," for what it's worth, claiming that "torture tested" in labs and in the real world for more than 10 million miles. What's more, the truck, in disguised form, completed all 883 miles of the Baja 1000.
