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.

Ford shutters Genk assembly plant in Belgium

Tue, Dec 23 2014

Ford has become the latest automaker to close one of its European assembly plants. The facility in question is located in the Belgian city of Genk and has been in operation since the early '60s when it started building the Taunus, Ford's first mass-produced, front-drive model. As part of the plan first announced over two years ago, the Genk Body & Assembly Plant is now closing its doors after half a century in the business and over fourteen million vehicles built. Although the plant itself employed some 5,000 workers, once you take into account the suppliers built up around the plant, the overall impact on employment in the area edges closer to 12,000. Genk Body & Assembly had until recently been tasked with producing the Mondeo sedan (which in its current iteration we know as the Fusion) as well as the S-Max and Galaxy minivans. Production of the Mondeo shifted in 2013 to the company's plant in Valencia, Spain, which also handles the Kuga crossover and Transit Connect cargo van, and will soon take over the minivans from Genk as well. The move follows a similar decision undertaken by General Motors to close the Opelwerk plant in Bochum, Germany. It also reflects a scaling down of automobile production in Belgium specifically: although Audi still manufacturers in Brussels and and Volvo in Ghent, Opel closed its plant in Antwerp in 2000 and Renault ceased production in Vilvoorde back in '97. However Ford still maintains its famous proving ground half an hour to the north in Lommel, Belgium.

Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.

How Ford secretly used customers to test its aluminum F-150 [w/video]

Fri, 30 May 2014

Automakers getting clever about disguising development vehicles isn't anything new. Between mules wearing the sheetmetal of other cars and prototypes decked out in as much camouflage as is practical, automakers know how to make it very difficult for the general public to get an exact idea of what kind of vehicle is in development. Ford, though, is rapidly becoming the master.
We knew that the Blue Oval originally tested the durability of the aluminum construction being used for the 2015 F-150 by building an all-aluminum 2014 truck and entering it in the Baja 1000 off-road race. That's no longer a secret. What we didn't know, though, is that the aluminum development dates back to before even that, and that some of the people in question had no idea what it was they were working with.
Ford says this is the first time prototypes have ever been handed over to the public.
