 This is an all steel 1936 Ford pickup titled as a 1936, body properly mounted on a 1989 Ford Ranger 2WD chassis. It has a good running 2.3 with an automatic trans power steering and power brakes. This setup makes this truck pretty reliable, good on gas and pretty easy to drive. It is a daily driver right now but could use a lot of finishing touches. Here's what it has. Working lights, working rear blinkers, and working rear flashers. It has a heater in it and I drive it in the winter on dry road days. Working speedo, fuel guage and temp, alt. guages. Recored flat head radiator. New exhaust, new timing belt, decent tires and decent brakes. It needs front blinkers, windshield wipers, front bumper installed, (I have it) headliner and interior trim to name a few things. I have the hood side cover for the driver side but the brake booster and power steering pump is in the way and would need to be moved. It's really about personal taste. I like it the way it is. I haven't washed it in two years because I like the just came out of a field look. It's just a cool old truck. The windows roll up and down and it has a sliding rear window. The front window has a crack but it's in my wifes line of vision not mine so it stays. It still needs some body work on one rear fender but the truck itself is pretty solid and very near ready to paint if desired but I've always felt it looks way to nice to mess up with shiny paint. It comes with a box of parts like all new door and window rubber, chrome trim pieces and other stuff specific to this truck. If you can't complete the sale please don't bid to much on it. If you really like it and want it bid alot and we'll work out the details. I'm not someone that's going to make all kinds of demands like: ASK YOUR WIFE FIRST!!!!! DEPOSIT WITHIN 3 SECONDS OF AUCTION END!!!!! AAAHHH!!! If you want the truck I'm sure we'll make it happen. Ask questions I'll answer quickly and honestly. I'm bidding on a car I have always wanted or I wouldn't even sell my truck. It is for sale locally so I might end the auction early if it sells locally. Thanks for looking.

Ford and Chrysler reducing summer plant shutdowns

Wed, 22 May 2013

Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.
Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.
Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.

New Ford dedicated hybrid due in 2018, will it fare better than C-Max?

Fri, Aug 22 2014

Everyone likes to go after the champ. When it comes to fuel economy, that means taking on the Prius, which is something that automakers not named Toyota have been trying to do for years. Just because no one has been able to beat the Prius for fuel economy numbers isn't stopping them from trying. Hyundai was just caught with a potential Prius-fighter and now we have news that Ford is joining the party. Well, is going to join again. The last time Ford said it was going to challenge the Prius, it didn't go quite as planned. The C-Max hybrid was heavily hyped as a Prius-beater and was originally rated at 47 miles per gallon. Of course, it later needed to be recalculated to just 40 mpg and sales tanked. So, it's back to the Blue Oval drawing board, according to Automotive News, which is reporting that Ford is readying a brand new gas-electric hybrid due in 2018 as a 2019 model year vehicle. A plug-in version is in the works, too, and the car will reportedly share a platform with the upcoming next-gen Focus and Escape models. About those C-Max sales. They have not been stellar for the C-Max hybrid, which started strong but suffered when the reality of the lower fuel economy was realized. So far in 2014 (through the end of July), Ford has sold 11,685 gas-electric models and another 4,759 plug-in Energi versions. The trend for the standard C-Max is downward (from 20,125 during the same time frame in 2013) and upward for the plug-in version (2,915 in the first seven months of 2013).

Ford F-150 EcoBoost in NHTSA probe for acceleration issue

Tue, 28 May 2013

According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching a probe into 400,000 Ford F-150 models over possible acceleration problems. According to the article, NHTSA has received 95 reports "alleging incidents of reduced engine power during hard accelerations" on 2011 to 2013 F-150 models equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
Automotive News reports that Ford has issued three technical service bulletins "related to intermittent stumble/misfire on acceleration from highway cruise in humid or damp conditions," according to the government agency's documents. About one third of the 95 reports NHTSA has received cited humid or rainy conditions when these problems allegedly occurred.
These technical service bulletins have allowed dealers to address a "condition related to moisture accumulation in the charge air cooler during extended highway cruising at constant throttle in humid or damp conditions," AN reports, citing NHTSA documents. Furthermore, the TSB outlines details for "reprogramming the powertrain control module with the latest calibration and installing a new CAC and air deflector plate."
