1946 Ford COE, 1.5 ton.  Has a 1939 grill (AS SEEN IN PICTURES).  390 T-Bird motor, 4 speed.  Has 13 ft. steel flat bed with hoist (no leaks, will stay up for days without dropping).  This would be an awesome truck to build, I am selling so I am able to put money into my business.  Has all window in working order, there cracks in the side windows, they do roll up and down, front windows tilt out as you can see in the pictures, no rot arond the windows. THis is a very solid truck.  It sat all winter, and I started it right up and drove it out of the pasture no problem.  The brakes work but with no assist, the E-Brake works.  I am in the process of getting the title from the state, so a title will be available with the purchase.  Very little rust, any place that there is rust, they make after market replacement panels.  This truck is pretty near dent free.  Please see the pictures.  I have taken pictures of the areas that most will rust in or be beat up in, and you can see in the pics that this truck is very solid and very restorable or drive as is.  The throw out bearing is froze up, you have to shut it off to shift it. I will be working on that, and may be able to get it freed up.  My dream was to make a car hauler with this,however, I have 6 other projects I am working on, and this is the most valuable and has great potential.  This is a very sweet truck!   This truck was last licensed and on the road in 1990. 

**Also available is an original 1946 Ford Flat Head V-8 motor that needs a rebuild, that can go with the truck if interested.

If you have questions, please call me.  Tony 507-272-6720.  We are in Harmony, MN.   I have hauled this on a 20 ft car trailer with no problems.  Will request that a down payment of $500 be put on paypal within 3 days of purchase, and the remaining balance be paid in cash at pick up (within 7 days of purchase) unless other arrangements are made.  I can help load this when it is picked up.  Buyer is responsible to pick up.

Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.

Ford fights back against patent trolls

Fri, Feb 13 2015

Some people are just awful. Some organizations are just as awful. And when those people join those organizations, we get stories like this one, where Ford has spent the past several years combatting so-called patent trolls. According to Automotive News, these malicious organizations have filed over a dozen lawsuits against the company since 2012. They work by purchasing patents, only to later accuse companies of misusing intellectual property, despite the fact that the so-called patent assertion companies never actually, you know, do anything with said intellectual property. AN reports that both Hyundai and Toyota have been victimized by these companies, with the former forced to pay $11.5 million to a company called Clear With Computers. Toyota, meanwhile, settled with Paice LLC, over its hybrid tech. The world's largest automaker agreed to pay $5 million, on top of $98 for every hybrid it sold (if the terms of the deal included each of the roughly 1.5 million hybrids Toyota sold since 2000, the company would have owed $147 million). Including the previous couple of examples, AN reports 107 suits were filed against automakers last year alone. But Ford is taking action to prevent further troubles... kind of. The company has signed on with a firm called RPX, in what sounds strangely like a protection racket. Automakers like Ford pay RPX around $1.5 million each year for access to its catalog of patents, which it spent nearly $1 billion building. "We take the protection and licensing of patented innovations very seriously," Ford told AN via email. "And as many smart businesses are doing, we are taking proactive steps to protect against those seeking patent infringement litigation." What are your thoughts on this? Should this patent business be better managed? Is it reasonable that companies purchase patents only to file suit against the companies that build actual products? Have your say in Comments.

Ford UK exec says EVs are a good way to lose a fortune

Wed, Mar 19 2014

Stateside, Ford execs are quick to point out the automaker's expansion in the plug-in sector. And despite a minimal presence in the pure EV space, the Blue Oval has been promoting its plug-in vehicles as part of an overall effort to boost fleetwide fuel economy. Too bad the company's UK chief didn't get the memo. There's "no point in us getting behind [EVs] and losing a fortune" - Ford's Mark Ovenden Mark Ovenden, speaking rather frankly at the Geneva Motor Show recently, said he didn't have real high hopes for substantial electric-vehicle adoption and said the company's money was better spent on smaller gas- and diesel-powered engines, the UK's Daily Mail says. Ovenden said of EV development that there was "no point in us getting behind it and losing a fortune," adding that his goal was to have variants of Ford's EcoBoost engine in 40 percent of the company's vehicles. Ford has about a 15-percent market share in the UK. The UK doesn't appear to be as kind to the EV as the US. Nissan last year cut the price of its all-electric Leaf there last year by about $4,000, while the company rolled out a promotion for the Leaf late last year, including allowing Leaf drivers to borrow a gas- or diesel-powered Nissan for free for as long as two weeks a year during the first three years of Leaf ownership. In the US, Ford sold just 229 Ford Focus Electrics during the first two months of the year after moving 1,738 units in 2013.
