Up for bids is this 1939 ford truck. This is a very unusual not often seen truck. Most of these are gone by the way side. The few that are left are either rusted to the ground, fixed up into high dollar trucks, or have already been made into rat rods. The way this one sits you could do basically what ever you wanted to do with it. It could be restored into a show truck, rat rod, street rod, hot rod, or just a simple driver so its an open book on this one. I got the truck from another gentleman who had it sitting in his warehouse for around 20 years. He got it from another couple who had it sitting in there barn for 25-30 years previous to that so its been off the road and in storage for around 40-50 years. I guess thats why it is still here today. otherwise it would of probably been rusting away. The body is really pretty solid. It has several dents and dings but over all the main structure is solid. The frame, cab, doors, running boards, bed, hood, fenders are all pretty solid. The body is pretty complete except for the tailgate. The motor and transmission is gone. I guess it was a flat head V8 originally. It will steer and roll. The doors will need some adjusting to shut correctly. The hinges are stiff and need to be alligned some more. When I got this truck it was pretty much dissasembled. I guess this was going to be someones project along time ago and it never took place. I would love to see someone get this and make something out of it. You see alot of the run of the mill cars but not to many 30's model trucks left out there. I took pics of everything that goes with it. I have the windshield frame, some interior pieces, and a few other pieces. I have a clear title to it. If you have questions or need more info just let me know. I will require full payment within seven days of the end of auction. If you need more information and would like to talk to me give me a call at 318-278-1069.

Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.

2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.
