A "now" driver. If it doesn't start in 10 seconds (cold start, or running temperature), $500 off agreed sell price. BODY/PAINT: Very solid frame & body (unrestored; "farmer" respectfully kept condition). That means, didn't push/pull a tractor or push the fence down with it. Couple scratches, dings, decent paint job years ago with some non-peeling crackle. Magnet sticks to everything-all areas of both doors, etc, etc. No accidents. Doors do not fly open hitting bumps or turning corners at 90MPH (of course kidding about cornering @ 90mph, but not about doors staying closed on all cornering). MECHANICALS: Yes, truly starts in 10 seconds or less. NO oil burn smoke *anytime*. Clutch never slips. Never runs hot (does have an auxillary electric cooling fan, but I have never had to turn it on even in Florida scorch time of day). Old tranny is a slow top loader floor shifter, as was expected from new. Brakes are safe. Has an electric fuel pump (w/mechanical in place also as just show). Steering box is smooth original with minimal play ( even new in 1940 it wasn't el perfect tight) & no kinking/rough feels. Tires are not dry rotted. Could use a carb rebuild or removal & tightening of lower gasket screws at some point (little seapage on bottom; doesn't effect performance). No other over-all system leaks as of this writing. Roll up windows work good. Cowl vent opens for that 1940 A/C. ELECTRICS: No shorts. New battery 4 days ago (old one had 2 bad cells). All lights work except maybe dash gauge lights. Oil, charge & added temp gauges work. INTERIOR: New (a pinch of upgrade) seat; cardboard surrounds; interior light added (again, pinch of upgrade); mat; glass, etc. New jeweled/chrome exhaust tips. All glass seals fairly new. OWNERSHIP: requires a knowledge of market, old vehicle mechanicals, & the ability to decide on unique time capsule ownership worth paying for. All others need not apply. If you want a hot rodded, or "up graded" modernized rendition-need NOT apply. For your viewing pleasure, seller, Howard. Call for a GOOD TIME ANTIQUE TRUCK: 904-881-3495. You will not be dissappointed (& if you are looking at these type of relics-won't miss the purchase money; you & your heirs won't be dissappointed). As a great philosopher "Howard" once said: "Time for another time machine". *If u want to own it, gotta step up to the plate & home run it". This is the lowest priced "nice/usable" 1/2 ton on market (believe it or not). Most of you know, what most are expecting depending on conditon of each truck. Doesn't matter how long you wait, the price will still be more than mine. If its restored its $40k. If its a project drive it next year (maybe). If its a correctly & nicely done hot rod, its $40k Make sure the frame is good on others in this period (especially projects; prepare for new frame or cut & paste welding of 2 frames.). They tended to rust up & over the rear axle big time (collapsable potentials). My 1940 for sale has NONE of these frame problems, or make-shift frame support repairs. Buyer: take as long as you want to contemplate ownership. The truck will not desintegrate for at least 300 more years, give or take 100 years..........................

Ford recalls 591,177 vehicles in four separate campaigns
Wed, Apr 29 2015Ford is issuing recalls for a total of 591,177 vehicles worldwide, in four separate campaigns. The announcement comes just days after the discovery of door-latch problems in 390,000 of the automaker's cars. The largest of these new recalls covers 518,313 examples of the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ from the 2013-2015 model years, plus the 2015 Edge. Of these, 487,301 of are in the US and 31,012 are in Canada. For vehicles in cold-weather areas, the bolts that hold the steering gear motor can corrode and fracture. If this happens, it could cause the power steering to fail, but manual control would be retained. There are no reported accidents or injuries from this problem. To fix things, dealers will replace the bolts and seal them. The next campaign covers 50,157 examples of the 2014 Focus, Edge, Escape, and Transit Connect, plus the Fiesta from 2014 and 2015. Of these, 45,505 are in the US, 4,618 in Canada, and 34 in Mexico. All of them exhibit a problem with the fuel pump where the nickel plating can cause the part to seize and the engine to stall, if this occurs. (All of which sounds like recent problems with Nissan and BMW models.) According to Ford, there is one allegation of an accident from this problem. Dealers will replace the fuel delivery module to fix the problem. Ford is also recalling 22,616 units of the 2015 Lincoln MKZ because when the headlights are on, the parking lamps are brighter than they are allowed to be. The light could affect the vision of other drivers. This campaign includes 21,435 of them in the US, 1,066 in Canada and 115 in Mexico. There are no accidents or injuries from the issue, but Ford is updating the software to dim the lights on these sedans. Finally, Ford has a safety campaign for 91 examples of the 2015 F-150 because an underbody heat shield might not be properly installed or not present at all, which can be a fire risk. There are no reports of any actual accidents or fires, though. The affected pickups will have the parts replaced or added, as necessary after a dealer inspection. To see the specific build dates for the models affected by each of these campaigns, you can read about them in the press release below.

Ford F-150 pulls semi truck through snow-clogged Chicago streets
Wed, Feb 4 2015Earlier this week, the Midwest was crippled by a massive snowstorm that dumped a foot or more of powder in some areas. The result was, of course, transportation gridlock. It's a fortunate thing for this stranded semi-truck driver, then, that a Ford F-150 EcoBoost stumbled upon him. Despite a tow rating of just over 11,000 pounds, the four-wheel-drive, turbocharged pickup managed to dislodge the big rig from a snow-covered street. Of course, the Ford didn't get the semi moving all on its own – watch the video towards the end and the semi was quite clearly spinning its rear tires. Still, it's an impressive feat that we've little doubt F-Series fans are celebrating. Related video:
How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.
