Ford F1 Pickup Truck on 2040-cars
Eden, Utah, United States
|
1955 Ford F-100, Short Bed, Custom Cab, with a 292 V8. I have a clear Utah Title in my name. This truck was restored and optioned by the previous owner. It was parked in his family's farm shed in Kansas. The owner passed away and the family left the truck, unattended, for over 25 years. I own the truck and have moved it to Utah, but I need to sell it. I have too many projects and not enough time. Please closely read my description and review all of the photos. I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting. I highly value my 100% positive feedback on Ebay and I want the new owner to be satisfied with my truck The reserve on the truck is lower than its value.
The truck is very complete and comes with an extra, period correct, automatic transmission if you decided to change out the original manual transmission. This is a good restoration project. The major rust issue is in the driver's side floor. There are minor rust issues in the cab corners, but over all the rust problems are not serious and can be repaired without replacing panels. The Ford 292 V8 Engine is free and should start with a new set of spark-plug wires. The key to the locking gas cap is included along with the ignition keys. The wood bed slats are rotten and need to be replaced. The driver's side hood hinge doesn't work properly. The battery box has rust, but the battery box door and sides are in good condition. The truck has 1954 Chevrolet taillights that can be used or removed. The previous owner tried to wood panel the dash and door panels. The original metal is in good condition underneath the thin wood paneling. The interior was torn up and it is missing the seat. The seats are easy to find. Again, please look closely at all of the photos. If you have questions, please give me a call. My home phone number is (801) 745-0599 or email me through the Ebay message system. If you want to make a "Buy Now" offer, let me know. If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks on Ebay, please call or email me before bidding. I want this to be a good, straightforward, auction. I can store the truck for a reasonable time period, and I will gladly ship the truck anywhere in the world. The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and the truck is sold as is. You are welcome to come and see the truck if you want to. A $250.00 PayPal deposit is required within 24 hours of the auction closing - unless other arrangements are made. Good luck bidding. This is a good old truck that deserves a good restoration. |

Next Ford Raptor spotted wearing aluminum skin
Wed, 07 May 2014Well, look at what we have here. Judging from these spy shots, Ford is indeed working on the next generation of its off-road-ready F-150 Raptor pickup truck. We've made no attempt to hide our appreciation for the Baja-style truck, which combines most of the usability of a fullsize truck with heavy-duty suspension components to make a kind of performance vehicle that is unique in the market.
What we haven't known, until now, is whether Ford would push forward with its Raptor program now that it has a completely new F-150 to serve as its base. And that's especially true since Ford made the bold move of switching the bodywork of its best-seller from tried-and-true steel to aluminum. As you can see above, the front and rear of this silver truck are clad in current-gen Raptor bodywork, while the center section that houses the occupants appears to come from the upcoming 2015 F-150.
Dissecting the views above, we note a few interesting tidbits. First, there looks to be a bulge in the truck's hood. Second, we see a new grille between the current Raptor's headlights, sporting a mesh finish and two horizontal bars. Lastly, our eyes can't help but lock in on those burly A-arm suspension pieces down below, not to mention all that ground clearance the specialty suspenders bring to the table.
Ford hit by lawsuit over hybrid technology from, surprise, Paice
Fri, Feb 28 2014The name Paice will be familiar to anyone who's been deep in the weeds of hybrid history, but it will probably be new to anyone who simply drives one. The key part of the story is something called "HyperDrive," which is the name given to a gas-electric powertrain technology developed by Alex Severinsky and patented in 1994. HyperDrive is a way to get the energy from both the electric battery and the engine into the wheels, seamlessly. The patents are held by Paice, which is an unusual company (its HQ is a house in a retirement community, right by a golf course) that does nothing but litigate. You can read more on Paice here. The latest case targets Ford and the hybrid and plug-in versions of the C-Max and Fusion models as well as the Lincoln MKZ. Paice claims that it held "over 100 meetings and interactions with Ford" between 1999 and 2004, and gave the automaker, "detailed information about the hybrid technology that Paice had developed." The suit also alleges that: For more than five years, Paice answered inquiries from multiple departments within Ford, believing in good faith that a business relationship between Paice and Ford would be mutually beneficial and advance the acceptance of Paice's technology. ... After years of Ford learning the details of Paice's hybrid drivetrain technology, Ford elected not to enter into a business relationship with Paice. The suit is officially known as, "Paice LLC v. The Ford Motor Co., 14-492, U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland (Baltimore)" and you can read the PDF here. Ford told AutoblogGreen, "we do not comment on pending litigation." Toyota settled a similar patent-infringement case in 2010 and now pays Paice almost $100 for every hybrid it sells. Paice is still in court against Hyundai and Kia. In 2010, Ford also settled with Paice but they agreed to keep negotiating on other issues until at least January 1, 2014. With that date now in the past, it didn't take long for Paice to file papers to get the two sides back before a judge. That's where it appears to be most comfortable.
Ford board pushing Mulally for decision amidst fears story is drowning out other news
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Automakers and their executives rarely like to divulge information regarding future goings on, but the board of directors at Ford sound like they're getting a little antsy about chief executive officer Alan Mulally and his plans for 2014.
According to Reuters, as news of Mulally's possible departure to Microsoft continues to swirl, Ford's board is looking to push the affable executive to make a decision about his future sooner rather than later. Apparently, the board is growing concerned that this will-he/won't-he drama may end up distracting the media from covering Ford's other big news events next year - items like the debut of key all-new products like the Mustang and F-150.
So far, the picture for Mulally's eventual successor remains fuzzy, but it's understood that the leading candidate remains the company's chief operating officer, Mark Fields. Just recently, we heard that Mulally will stay until the end of 2014, but a few months ago, Ford seemed open to the idea of him stepping down earlier than that.
