FIRST I WANT TO START BY SAYING YES MY EBAY ACCOUNT IS NEW. I RECENTLY WENT THRU A DIVORCE AND SHE GOT EVERYTHING RIGHT DOWN TO THE EBAY ACCOUNT WE HAD FOR OUR FAMILY. I HAVE BEEN ON EBAY SINCE 2001 BUT THIS IS MY NEW ACCOUNT. SO ON THAT NOTE. GOOD LUCK BIDDING. I START MOST OF MY AUCTIONS AT A DOLLAR WITH NO RESERVE.

1938 3/4 ton Ford Truck. The logos are very faint but I think it is an oId Union Pacific RailRoad Truck. I bought this truck from kansas about 5 years ago. I hunted for a while to find one that had no rot. I wanted to a rat rot shop truck to run around town. Frame, cab is super solid. Bed has one rust hole thru in the stake pocket that can be see in pics. It has a sunbaked / surface rust patina. I had treated it with what these rat rod guys use to keep the look(mineral spirits and linseed oil mix). Needs to be done again. I had it shipped to our shop in charleston sc. We did some trading and got a rebuilt carb from Bobby at Old Crow Speed Shop in california. We repaired the distributor. The engine spins free but the starter is hanging up. That is as far as I got. PICTURES WERE TAKEN BEFORE WE REDID THE CARB AND DISTRIBUTOR.

The seat needs to be redone but the frame is there. The bed needs wood and so does the cab floor. Needs glass. All are available aftermarket. Tires hold air and have for 5 years I have had the truck but needs new tires. The truck rolls free. I feel like it would run and be driving with a few weekends work. Obviously this is an old truck and as you get it running I am sure some things will pop up. I have some manuals I will let go with the truck. I have too many projects and no where to store or work on them right now.

Ask Questions. As Sales Finals. I have more pictures of every inch of the truck just ask.

On May-15-14 at 19:53:59 PDT, seller added the following information:

There is a dent on roof. Forgot to mention it . Not serious. No rust. Doesnt leak. Can see it in pics from right side of truck above passenger door. Email me if you want link to see more pics

Seat was removed for recovering. It is all there just out of the truck.

Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."

Rowan Atkinson crashes at Goodwood Revival

Sun, 14 Sep 2014

To quote Harry Hogge (played by Robert Duvall) in Days of Thunder, "rubbin, son, is racin'." That can mean some unfortunate damage to high-end racing machinery, which may be repaired easily enough in stock car racing, but when it comes to vintage racing, the stakes can be that much higher. And yet incidents do occur, like at this weekend's Goodwood Revival.
Among the many competitors taking part in the retro racing event in England was none other than Rowan Atkinson, the actor perhaps best known for playing Mr. Bean. Driving a classic Ford Falcon Sprint in the Shelby Cup event, Atkinson (pictured above at the 2012 revival) reportedly crashed head-on into another car on track.
According to reports, the two cars up spun out. The driver in between managed to avoid a pile-up, but Atkinson couldn't steer clear and hit the obstructing vehicle. Fortunately Rowan walked away unscathed (and, we imagine, in a humorous manner), but while we don't know how extensive the damage was to the Falcon, it was enough to take it out of the race.

Project Ugly Horse: Part VIII

Fri, 17 May 2013

Now With More EcoBoost
There's an EcoBoost 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in there somewhere, and it's headed straight for Ugly Horse.
For the second time in my life, I'm staring at an engine in the back of a truck with no concept of how to get it safely into the garage by my lonesome. The first time this happened, I dragged home a $300 International 345 V8 in the back of my Scout Terra only to discover that the bounds of my manliness terminated well before my ability to muscle that 800-pound cast iron block out of the pickup bed.
