1955 Ford Truck F-100 Custom Cab on 2040-cars
Acworth, Georgia, United States
1955 Ford F-100 Custom Cab This is a Georgia truck that has been parked for 10 years now, and was kept inside, and has a very nice solid body with one small rust spot that is in the bottom seal where the door closes on the drivers side, and the very bottom of the head board panel where the wood goes in the bed. The drivers side post has a split in the metal that just needs to be welded, and smoothed up. Floor boards inside the cab, cab corners, bed, fenders, hood are all in great condition with only a couple of dents on the front fenders. It has a tilt wheel with a power steering gear box, but the power steering pump on the engine is missing. I'm not sure if they ever had the power steering working on it just the power steering box. It does steer easy like it is. Frame is original, and has not been sectioned as it still has the original front axle under it. I was told that it has a 390 engine in it with a automatic transmission, and ford 9" rear end. If you would like me to check any numbers on the running gear to confirm this I would be happen to do so. The data plate is missing on the glove box lid, but I know where you can get these, and they will stamp your info on it. The vin# is on the frame (see photo) of the vin#. I have not tried to crank the engine so I don't know the condition of it. The truck has some extra leaf springs in the rear that would be easy to remove if you wanted to. The front has air shocks on it that I aired up, and when I did the plastic fitting to the air line broke off so I wasn't able to kept them aired up. Glass is good except the back glass has a crack. Tires look to be in good condition. Over all this is a good project truck with a low reserve. Georgia was a none title state in 1955, so they want give me a title for it so it is being sold on a bill of sale only. If you have any questions you can contact me at 404-867-3163 cell Thanks Terry |

Ford recalls 2020-21 Explorer and Lincoln Aviator, 2021 E-Series
Mon, Dec 21 2020Ford announced safety recalls for the 2020-2021 Explorer and Lincoln Aviator along with the 2021 E-Series early Monday. The recalls address entirely different issues. In the case of the 2020-2021 Ford Explorer and Lincoln Aviator, that issue is motor mount hardware. Specifically, the fasteners that secure the passenger-side motor mount may back out. In Ford's words, this can result in a "loss of power," which is the entirely predictable result of an engine parting ways with the vehicle it powers. As alarming as that may sound, owners should not have to worry about anything extreme, as the passenger side mount is only one of multiple, and Ford says it is not aware of any incidents that have occurred with vehicles in customer hands. Ford says it impacts only about 1400 examples of the Explorer and Aviator in the States (plus two in Mexico and 65 in Canada) that were built at Chicago Assembly Plant between July 28 and 30, 2020. Ford is in the process of alerting its owners to the recall, and those with affected models will have their mount hardware replaced by their local Ford dealerships free of charge. The 2021 E-Series is being recalled for a potential heat management issue resulting from improperly aligned thermal insulation on the underside of its engine cover. In vehicles where this insulation was not properly installed so that it reaches all the way to the edges of the cover, the resulting heat bleed can cause high in-cabin surface temperatures, and direct contact them could result in burns. This is the larger of the two recalls, as Ford says it covers nearly 33,000 examples sold in the United States and Canada. Fortunately, as with the above issue, Ford says it has not been made aware of any customer incidents. Ford says the remedy is a set of insulation patches for the exposed areas. Related Video:
Ford E-Series chassis cabs and cutaways to survive mass Transit onslaught
Fri, 18 Apr 2014In March 2013, Ford announced we'd be getting chassis cab and cutaway versions of the Transit. Since incoming Transit vans will soon be rolling over the grave of the E-Series van, it was assumed that all E-Series models would go six feet under as well. According to a report from PickupTrucks.com, however, that's not the case, the report claiming that the highly modifiable E-350 and E-450 chassis cab and cutaway versions will continue being produced in Avon Lake, Ohio "at least until 2020."
Being decades old, the be-cabbed E-Series platform has found its way under an army of heavy-duty shuttle buses, work truck and ambulances. Ford spokeswoman Jessica Enoch verified the production horizon, telling Autoblog that the particular E-Series configuration "are a higher GVWR than the Transit chassis cab and cutaway (available this summer), which is more Class 2 and a new segment for us." So there you have it.
New Ford GT to carry $400k-price tag
Thu, Mar 5 2015The last time Ford made a GT, it built more than 4,000 of them and sold each one for around $150,000. Judging by the premiums at which they later traded, they were evidently worth a lot more than that. But this time, the new Ford GT will be far more expensive and far more scarce. Official performance, production and pricing figures have yet to be released, but upon the new American supercar's European debut in Geneva, Ford performance chief Dave Pericak indicated it would be priced competitively with the Lamborghini Aventador – which carries a base sticker price approaching $400,000, Car and Driver reported. Combine that with production expected to number in the hundreds, not the thousands, and you're not likely to be seeing any of these Blue Oval halo cars in your neighborhood anytime soon. The question then becomes: will the price tag will be justified? With carbon-fiber construction and more than 600 horsepower on tap, it very well could be. And if speculators are going to drive up the actual sale prices, we don't see why Ford shouldn't get what the product is worth. But whether the world is ready for a $400,0000-Ford is another question entirely. Related Video:
