1959 Ford F250 / LWB Step Side Pickup
A Real Barn / Vineyard Find

Up for auction is a complete, unmolested 1959 F250 LWB Step Side truck, we acquired this as a truck to part out as that is our
main business parting out trucks for restoration projects and felt it was worth salvaging because of its history and
it is all original except the bed*, even the seat appears to have the original upholstery.
Current bed came from a Cal Trans Maintenance truck. The 223 6 cylinder engine runs beautifully, engine
does not smoke or knock. Overall truck is in good to fair condition, it does not have much rust and the only real rust through
is shown at the corners of the doors. We have rebuilt and replaced master cylinders, clutch slave, wheel cylinders and done a complete brake job.
The gas tank and fuel system has been flushed, Carburetor rebuilt and fuel pump changed. Also a major tune up has been done.
We have a clear California title and bill of sale for the vehicle. so if you were to register it I do believe you could drive it away.
As long as you don't go far. It does need a set of tires, we put a set of used 16.5" wheels and tires on the truck as it had 4 flats
on the original 17.5" rims when we acquired it, the original rims do come with the truck, if one wants to be totally authentic.

All of this said here is the history of the truck as we know it. It spent its life as a working vineyard vehicle in the Napa Valley of California.
The truck originally came with a step side bed which as happened in the day was discarded in favor of a home made flatbed for
hauling grape boxes from the fields to processing. Truck was parked behind a barn in 1999 and basically forgotten.
We acquired it about a year ago and have had it in a storage yard waiting to be parted out. We realized it should
be given another chance once we reviewed its condition. In our clean up tore off the old wooden flat bed, we also
had a LWB step side bed in nice condition to bring it back to more original so this is what we are doing.
If buyer does not want that we can accommodate.

Please look carefully at the photos of this truck before bidding and please contact us to answer more questions.

Vehicle is located at our shop in Sacramento, CA where we maintain regular business hours if you should wish to look at the truck.

We ship world wide and regularly ship to Europe, New Zealand, Australia and South America if you are an
overseas buyer we have excellent references regarding our abilities for shipping.

GM, Ford and Fiat Chrysler set target date for restarting production

Tue, Apr 28 2020

The parking lot stands empty at Fiat Chrysler's sprawling Belvidere, Ill., assembly plant. / Getty Images General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles are targeting May 18 to resume some production at their U.S. factories after shutting down plants in March due to the coronavirus outbreak, the Wall Street Journal reported. Executives from the companies in recent days tentatively settled on the timeline following talks with United Auto Workers (UAW) leaders and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's office, the Journal said on Monday, citing people familiar with the plans. The head of the UAW union last week warned it was "too soon and too risky" to reopen auto plants and Michigan's economy in early May, citing risks to workers. The companies are working with the union on drawing up safety protocols for reducing exposure risk for workers, but haven't finalized those terms yet, according to the WSJ report. GM, Ford, Fiat Chrysler and UAW did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment. Plants/Manufacturing Chrysler Fiat Ford GM coronavirus

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

Ford Focus EV's slow sales trigger massive incentives

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The Detroit News reports Ford is having real trouble moving its new Focus Electric. As a result, the automaker is offering substantial incentives in an attempt to lure in more buyers. How substantial? Try $10,750 off of a three-year lease. What's more, the EV can now be had for $37,995 ($2,000 less than its original base price) on top of an additional $2,000 cash discount to buy the EV outright - or you can opt for 1.9-percent financing if you work through Ford Motor Credit. None of which factors in various potential government incentives. Last year, Ford managed to sell a paltry 685 of the 1,627 Focus EV hatchbacks it built.
Ford isn't alone in trying to woo more buyers to its EV effort. Nissan cut the price of its Leaf by a whopping 18 percent for 2013, now down to $28,800 and built in the USA. The move followed the automaker's substantial incentives in 2012.
If you want a Focus Electric, you can now apparently get your hands on one for as little as $285 per month with $930 due at signing for a 36-month lease with 10,500 miles per year.
