1935 Ford V8 flathead pickup. partial restoration was started by original owner probably about 30 years ago? with some work to the cab and rear fenders . We would categorize this wonderful old truck as well preserved , in not running condition. No serious rust. Repair replacement Parts for these old pickups are very easy to get and many speed shops have any part you need from A to Z. we tried to clean it up so buyer can see everything down to the original "Henry Ford" steel !. Truck is solid and the doors close like a bank vault. A nice old 79 year old survivor ! many parts we worked on were professionally carefully sand blasted down to original bare metal. The High performance Mercury 8CM engine came with the truck. we were told it was a rare "4 Stroker 8CM Mercury V8 flathead. which was the engine everyone wanted back in the 1930's -1950's. "Bonnie and Clyde exclusively used the large HP V* flathead due to its power ! we were told that the crank alone on this engine is worth $900++ and that these amazing power plants can fetch $5000 and more when rebuilt for the flathead racing market.. This truck is a real attention getter..as they are so rare folks flock to see it...
Some parts on the truck may be missing,.. its not 100% but looks incredible! We cleaned it up and had it on display until recently. A real head turner for sure . motor looks sweet but will really need rebuilding and condition is honestly unknown. truck had been converted at one time to "Juice" modern hydraulic brakes, and 12 volt system (battery included)...it will need master cylinder and wheel cylinders either replaced or rebuilt. Truck has never been chopped etc. we sand blasted everything we could (down to metal ) and applied a preservation coat of paint in preparation for long time dry storage. Any dents or dings, normal cracks were purposely not repaired for the simple reason we wanted NO BONDO on any of the parts were preserved, ......VIN *Number on TITLE AND FRAME ARE MATCHING 1935 ..buyer is responsible for shipping and nothing will leave the garage until full payment is made...cash or cashiers check only with $500 paypal non refundable deposit required within 12 hours following end of auction. Clear title ..a great head start for someone looking for that entry level restoration or a daily driver or RAT ROD! the cool factor is truly off the hook with these old 35-36 pickups..nothing compares !!

Holy crime-fighting Ford F-150, Batman!

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

What would Batman drive for his weekly trips to Home Depot for the bits and pieces needed to keep his lair deep below Wayne Manor in tip-top condition? Certainly not the Batmobile - there's no way a 4x8 sheet of plywood will fit between the wheel wells, not to mention the fact that jet turbine engines have an unfortunate tendency to set trailers on fire when towing...
No, what Batman needs is a pickup truck. The boys from Ford teamed up with Galpin Auto Sports to build just such a machine, and it has just debuted at Comic Con. Designed by Jared Barris, grandson of the legendary kustomizer George Barris, the 2012 F-150 pickup you see here, dubbed Crime Fighter, is painted Tuxedo Black with Ferrari Red highlights and is affixed with fins on each side of the truck bed. It's nothing if not unique.
Well, it's at least unique for now. According to Ford, Galpin in Southern California is willing to take orders for customers looking to don a cape and hit the town for a night of crime-fighting action. Or trips to Home Depot. Check out our high-res image gallery and then scroll down for the official description from Ford. We're waiting for details such as pricing and build time from Ford, and we'll update this post if and when we hear back.

Ford, GM to collaborate on 9- and 10-speed transmissions

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

Back in October, there were reports that General Motors and Ford Motor Company were hard at work co-developing new nine- and ten-speed automatic transmissions, and now both automakers have confirmed this joint operation. While there are no specific vehicles mentioned to receive either transmission, a collaborative press release issued by GM and Ford mention that the transmission will be designed for front- and rear-wheel-drive cars, crossovers, trucks and SUVs.
These aren't the first powertrain components developed jointly between these cross-town rivals, either. The six-speed automatic currently used in vehicles like the Ford Edge, Ford Fusion, Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Equinox was engineered in a similar fashion. As is the case with this existing transmission, both automakers will assist in the design, development and testing of the new transmissions, but each will build its own units in its own factories. Scroll down for the official press release.

Ford previews updated Police Interceptor Utility for Chicago debut

Tue, Feb 3 2015

With more law enforcement agencies across the United States alone than we'd care to count (or ever encounter), selling police cars means big business for American automakers, with Ford, Chevy and Dodge competing to fill the motorpools of every police department, sheriff's office and government agency in the land. For its part, Ford offers the Taurus-based Police Interceptor sedan and the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility, and it's preparing to unveil a revised version of the latter at the upcoming Chicago Auto Show in the same city where it's built. Dearborn hasn't given us much to go on with this teaser, showing just a darkened front shot of the vehicle in question with its emergency lighting all aglow. But it's fairly clear that the Interceptor Utility has been given many of the same updates applied recently to the Explorer on which it's based. That starts with the revised sheet metal, but considering that the Interceptor Utility exclusively packs V6 power, the 2.3-liter EcoBoost four that was one of the biggest updates to the civilian Explorer isn't likely to carry over. Ford does, however, promise that the revised Police Interceptor Utility will be "even better" than the model it replaces" and pack "more high-tech features." Related Video:
