Here we have a 1937 Ford Pickup on a homebuilt boxed frame - z'd rear end. It is powered by a 1971 Ford 302 out of a Torino with a 1974 Ford Mustang C4 transmission. I have no title for the vehicle - most states don't require you to have one, just a bill of sale for such an old truck (It has a # stamped into the cab but MA is too tough to get a title from) - or just drive her as is - this is what I've done! I've replaced the intake manifold, put on a new Edlebrock 650cfm carb, new water pump with new hoses, new electronic ignition with new wires, new radiator, new lines, new push rods, new aluminum valve covers, new tires and a new aluminum spun 10gal gas tank. It has an ez wire fuse box (lines need to be tightened up) with running oil pressure, amps, and temp guages. New lights (brake, head), high beams and horn. I've taken the truck to where it it is but have no time and have lost interest. Will start up and run but needs to be 'dialed in' - drops out sometimes when I shift it into drive. Truck is fun and gets tons of interest at local cruise nights, but I need something for the entire family. I'll be happy to try and answer any questions you have but I've listed just about everything I know about the gal. She's a rat, she's fun, and she needs a little love to finish her. All the work on her has been done by me. Good luck bidding, she is as is, where is. Buyer must pick up - I will not be responsible for shipping. A $500 non-refundable deposit is due within 24hours of auction end. I invite anyone who would like to check her out to set up an appointment to stop by - I will be available at request. Truck is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thank you!

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.
Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
Ford Fusion getting substantial refresh for 2017
Wed, 13 Aug 2014It's only been a couple of years since Ford rolled out the current Fusion, but if these spy shots are anything to go by, it's already planning what appears to be a substantial update for the mid-size sedan.
According to our paparazzi on the ground, the new Fusion is being prepared for launch late in 2016 or early 2017. Although heavily camouflaged to keep it from prying eyes such as ours, it appears that the updated Fusion will tone down the Aston Martin-style grille, ditch the small corner window with revised front side glass and tweak the vehicle's overall shape. But there's more to the new Fusion than a styling adjustment, and our spy photographers have caught a glimpse inside and taken us along.
Apparently the new Fusion is to get a completely overhauled interior with soft-touch surfaces and matte wood trim to make it seem more upscale. There's an all-new rotary gear selector (like you'd find on a Jaguar, for example) hinting at the implementation of a new nine-speed automatic transmission. The prototype appears to be packing the Microsoft SYNC system, suggesting that the new Blackberry QNX system isn't ready quite yet - though that doesn't necessarily mean it won't be ready by the time the new Fusion is.
