Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"This F-1 pickup was restored 12 years ago. It has been in the barn for 6 years. The paint needs to be removed and repainted. The tires are weather checked and need to be replaced. After the tires are replaced, it can be driven home."

Up for auction today is a 1949 F-1 pickup truck that was restored in 2001. This truck was not restored to original condition. It was updated to a 1967 Buick 430 cubic inch engine by Kenny Bell Racing, along with a Mustang 2 front end with disc brakes. The transmission is a 400 GM with a 2800 stall converter and a 9 inch Ford rear axle. The work was done by professionals and I have some receipts. The total cost of the restoration was $20,000 in 2001 value of money.

This truck was driven for 6 years and was put in the barn. We have now removed the truck from the barn and the condition is as follows:
It needs the paint stripped because it is cracked and peeling, I am told the primer has failed.
The tires are cracked and weathered and will need replaced. No, you cannot drive this home with existing tires!! I have not put new tires on it because they may not be the rims that the new buyer wants to use. If you decide to drive it home after putting 15 inch tires on it, it will make it without a problem.
The truck starts, drives forward, drives backward, it stops, has turn signals, no seat belts, no radio, but is just a cool truck.

I have decided not to do the restoration because it may not be what a new owner would want, ie; paint color, size of wheels, width of tires, upholstery, etc.

This truck is a solid base with the hard work done(except for paint). You can make it as you would like it, rat rod, low rider, with satin black and moonies or high gloss two tone paint or old school. It is up to you. The base is there.

The condition of the body is as follows:
There is some rust starting at the bottom of the door pillar where it was previously repaired.
There is some repair around the hood's front edge.
The paint has cracked and peeled from the cab and the bed.
The bed's wood floor has one piece that has deteriorated and needs replaced.
The pictures show the problem areas.
If you need additional pictures, let me know.

Ford motor company only made this body style for 3 years. Then they went to the F-100. You can drive this truck with new tires on it and not do anything. These trucks are getting more rare to find, especially in this condition. The standard verbage here on eBay is, "I have too many projects and this one has got to go" and it is true in my case. Watch for future auctions as I will list other projects that I will never get to .

I will not ship this vehicle. However, I will help load and assist a transporter. Your best bet is to contact Uship.com or a broker and the preferred way is to come and get it. We are located in Charlotte, MI approximately 20 miles South of Lansing, just off Interstate 69.

Payment of $500.00 earnest money deposit from the winning bidder, which is NON-REFUNDABLE, within 24 hours of the close of the auction via Paypal, cash or wire transfer. The balance must be paid by cash, cashiers check or personal check, however, all funds must clear my bank before the title is delivered and the vehicle leaves my property.

I reserve the right to cancel the auction early because I have this truck listed elsewhere and is for sale locally.

Now that all the legal requirements are met, I will add that in my view, this is a nice truck. It is going to take some work to restore to showroom condition, but I am not ashamed to drive it in its present condition. In fact, I got thumbs up driving it from the barn to the shop. People are stopping to look at it every day that it has been outside.

Good luck bidding!!

Mustang, Camaro, Challenger gallop onto USPS pony car postage stamp set

Tue, Jul 19 2022

Some of America's most iconic cars are about to be immortalized on postage stamps. A new set by the U.S. Postal Service will celebrate the the golden era of pony cars, featuring five classic examples of Detroit iron. Each one is beautifully illustrated in oil-on-canvas style, with subjects in motion and sunlight glinting off the chrome, and would add a nice touch to any first-class letter. The pony car segment was all about (relatively) small, sporty alternatives to the full-size land yachts of the 1960s. They typically came equipped with 6-cylinder engines or small-block V8s. The category was named after the Ford Mustang, henceÂ the name. Some, though, argue that the Plymouth Barracuda, which was launched a couple of weeks before the Mustang, is the first. Luckily, the Falcon-based Mustang's distinct styling generated a sales sensation, or we might be calling them fish cars. Appropriately, one of the featured cars is a Mustang. But it's not just any Mustang. The 1969 Boss 302, seen here resplendent in Bright Yellow, was created for the hotly-contested SCCA Trans-Am racing series. One of its main rivals would have been the 1969 Chevy Camaro Z/28, also created specifically for the series, and is included in the set in Fathom Green. Representing Auburn Hills in the set is a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T in Plum Crazy, while Southfield's American Motors gets a nod with an AMC Javelin in Big Bad Orange. The Mustang's platform cousin, a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR-7, is portrayed in a gorgeous Burgundy Poly that almost looks incomplete without Neko Case on the hood. It's not the first time the USPS has honored America's rich car culture on its stamps. In 2013, it issues a series of muscle car stamps with the help of Richard Petty. That set featured a 1966 Pontiac GTO, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1970 Chevelle SS, 1970 Plymouth Hemi ’Cuda and, of course, a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona. Another set in 2016 featured classic pickup trucks. Going further back, a 2008 release had chroed and finned automobiles of the 1950sÂ and a 2005 release featured sporty American cars of the same era. The pony car stamps will debut on August 25 at the Great American Stamp Show in Sacramento, California in partnership with theÂ American Philatelic Society. The public is free to attend the dedication ceremony, but you must RSVP first. After that, they will be available at local post offices and on line at the USPS store.
