1937 Ford 1/2 Ton Pick Up Truck on 2040-cars
Jacksonville, Florida, United States
|
This is a mild custom original. Has a 50's Mercury flathead V8 with tri-power. Converted to 12 Volts. Also, has a 1997 S-10 five speed manual transmission which seems to be a perfect fit & easy shifting (& has a new clutch recently). Most else is original & well taken care of by long time owner. New tires have just been put on, with 16's, but bigger size in the back (spare is also new). New electric fuel pump, but a new original type mechanical comes with it also. It has sort of a VW horn (operated via foot button to left of clutch pedalL, but comes with a new ahooga horn. Starts easy & runs smooth. New mufflers make it sound mild hum/roar. Gauges work except for the gas gauge which needs to be calibrated to the new Ford sending unit ( I have the gentleman's name to get this done; otherwise just keep the new poly tank filled). The lights were working but the guy I bought it from said a new switch was needed & one is supplied with purchase. I may tinker to figure it out. The fog lights work on a seperate switch. There is a lighter socket plug in for a supplied handheld fan/heater (maybe defrost back-up). It probably could be mounted for more convenience. Truck is a hoot to drive & scoots for an old school HP. Comes with 7 period hubcaps & 6 beauty rings. Or, you can leave them off (see the driver side picture with all OFF; passenger side all hubcaps & beauty rings on for preferred look comparison; I prefer the hubcap & beauty ring look). Two extra rims & I think two tires. Needed items eventually: minimal rust at driver door back corner & rain catcher/gutter. Couple small bubbles on passenger door & less issue @ rain gutter. The new light installed, as mentioned. All the glass is excellent/new, but the driver's door roll-up glass has a crack. It rolls up/down smoothly & is not going to fall out. Passenger door window winds up/down smooth also. The bed wood looks to be original or replaced @ older restore. It is very solid antique wood/hold down strips. The truck underside/frame is excellent with no rust. The hood sections were just sat on for pictures & not latched tight (usually left off for cool engine seeing). The crank out windshield & air intake cowl port both work easily.
On Feb-05-14 at 12:14:24 PST, seller added the following information: As can be seen, every exhaust part is new. The doors close tight, evenly & snug with no drop in hinges or latches. On Feb-05-14 at 13:15:27 PST, seller added the following information: I meant to put in a picture of the bed wood, but do to limited picture loading on this format, I could not. I can send more pictures to any email or maybe thru ebay. The wood is aged but not rotting or need replacement. On Feb-05-14 at 15:31:31 PST, seller added the following information: Has two gas caps, one regular, one locking (whichever owner prefers). Has temperature gauge radiator cap. The added tach works. Also, a period dash glove box clock (would have to install; came on deluxe model?); could use new glass; I have the address of gentleman that has one & will install the new glass, free or inexpensively). |

Ford debuts Fusion NASCAR racer that edges closer to stock [w/video]
Wed, 20 Feb 2013The sixth-generation NASCAR Sprint Cup racecar, which will make its competition debut at the 2013 Daytona 500 this weekend, marks the closest thing to a "stock car" that the sport has seen in more than 20 years. No longer using just stickers to distinguish the different brands, the image above shows the lengths NASCAR and automakers went in order to create a racecar design that more closely resembles the individual cars they represent.
Ford, one of the more open and vocal OEMs regarding the Gen6 car's development, is giving us a closer look at its racing version of the Fusion with a pretty revealing side-by-side comparison with last years' racer (click above for an expanded view). Aside from the more realistic front end and production-like body lines, the overall shape, dimensions and proportions have also been designed to give the racecar a more stock appearance. Most of the new racer was designed by the Ford Design Center, which the automaker says was the first time it has been so involved in the design process since the 1960s. Of course, one area the Sprint Cup Fusion really differs from the production Fusion is its Ford Racing 5.8-liter V8 producing around 850 hp. Can you say Fusion SVT?
Scroll down for a quick video from Ford Racing showing a production Fusion morph into a Cup car.
