1947 Ford Pickup Truck Rust Free California Body!! Shop Truck, Hot Rod, on 2040-cars
Ashland, Virginia, United States
Hey there, you’re looking at my 1947 Ford pickup truck. This is a California rust free example VERY RARE!! I found this truck in Utah a couple years ago and that gentleman purchased it out of California and had owned it several years. Looks to be a professional build based on the quality of the way it’s put together. Every nut and bolt has been touched and it has had a complete frame up build. Looks to have been originally completed in 1999 based on the car show stickers in the cab above the passenger windshield. Condition is still very good driver quality and the truck has been driven 10,600 miles since its build. It is NOT PERFECT and does show some wear so be aware of that. It has been well taken care of and drives so nice!!! The body, bed and tailgate are all original!! No glass or aftermarket sheet metal on this one!! Now the goodies … powered by a 289 Ford; motor is tight, no smoke and awesome oil pressure. The truck is backed up with a Hughes performance C-4 automatic transmission and a 9in Ford rear. Its geared for cruising, perhaps a 300 ratio? Cruises the highway speeds without any problems!! Built old school with a set of try Y headers, Smitty glass packs, Coker Classics and a retro tach to boot. Mustang Two front end with power disk brakes and power steering. Original frame, boxed in front. Just a nice old truck that gets thumbs up everywhere you go. It has a stainless fuel cell in back of bed and it does have lap belts and a charging jack under the seat for your phone, GPS etc. If you have any questions please feel free to email me or call, I can send any additional pics at your request. It is for sale locally so I can end this auction if I choose. Happy bidding, you will not be disappointed. My cell is 804-690-6364; ask for Michael, or by email, corvet4us@comcast.net. Winning bidder will be responsible for $1,000.00 deposit and shipping to be arranged by purchaser. Funds to be sent via wire transfer, certified cashier’s check or cash. Vehicle will not be released until funds are cleared. |

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
Ford pulls official support from top-level NHRA teams
Sun, 11 Aug 2013As the smallest team in the sport, it wasn't really a surprise when Dodge decided to pull out of NASCAR, but Autoweek is reporting that Ford is looking to pull the plug on its professional-level NHRA sponsorships following the 2014 season. With attendance and television ratings down, the article reports that Ford is just backing out of the top series but will remain active in the Sportsman classes of racing, which are geared more toward the grassroots and semi-professional racers.
This means that one of drag racing's biggest names, John Force, will be left looking for new sponsorship after next season. Force, 64, has been with Ford for 17 years, winning 15 championships in that time and winning almost half of all Funny Car events in his Mustang since he started working with Ford in 1997, but after 2014, there could be some big shakeups at John Force Racing.
According to the report, Force would consider is moving over to the Top Fuel dragster series, although he could also move to another manufacturer to remain in the Funny Car series. With Ford on the way out, this leaves just Toyota and Dodge as the remaining active automakers in the highest levels of drag racing.
Ford to show special edition Raptor on April 9
Mon, 01 Apr 2013There are precious few details, but what we do know is that Ford will be revealing images of "appearance upgrades" for a special-edition 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor on April 9. The slideshow will happen during a Motor Press Guild luncheon at Ford's Design Center Showroom in Irvine, California.
Without photos or further details, we're left to wonder about the extent of these changes, but aren't expecting anything too significant given the venue. Ford is understood to be revealing a next-generation F-150 with a big weight loss - as much as 700 pounds - for 2014, though it isn't yet clear if that's the truck's model year or simply its on-sale year. For at least a couple of years, Ford forums have been suggesting changes will come with the 2014 Raptor, so there could still be a bigger surprise in store. Either way, we'll know what all this means in a little more than a week. The press release below has the official details, but for the moment, we'll content ourselves by ogling the 2013 model above.
