1948 Ford F1 Original Truck Old Antique Project Flathead Running Condition on 2040-cars
Bartlesville, Oklahoma, United States

This truck belongs to my father in-law who has had it for over 10 years. He does not have the time or mechanical ability to restore it or to even use or enjoy it, in it's present condition. The truck was bought from a rural pastor in Nebraska who had many years ago used it on a postal route. The truck is to the best our knowledge completely orignal. I would describe this truck as being in a very pure condition. We don't believe that It has not been changed, adapted or upgraded in the last 66 years. It has been most definitely painted with a brush 30-50?? years ago. This has probably helped to keep the body with very little rust. It has been driven over the 10-12 years, but very little. If you wanted to drive it without a restoration it would take very little work. BUT most of it's vital organs has received little attention for a lot of years. The tires will hold air but are in poor condition. The brakes I'm sure could use some TLC. I do want you to know that the "WORST" about the truck is its lack of attention many many years. This may also be the "BEST" about the truck.It would be rare to find many others this age that are as original and un-tampered as this one. My opinion is: the truck has very little rust. In places like the floorboard, the undersides of doors, the firewall and bed, the truck is showing almost no rust other than some surface rust and is all very solid. the truck appears to be "all there" We are posting a lot of pictures that should show its condition. Feel free to contact us if you need any additional pics or information. We have a reliable shipping contact that will ship anywhere in the lower 48 for approx. $1.00 per mile (one way) some areas are less and some are more. Call anytime Steve 918-804-2434 |

Volkswagen could outsell GM in China for the first time in nine years
Fri, 27 Dec 2013As of the end of November, Volkswagen had sold 70,000 more cars than General Motors in China in 2013, making it appear inevitable that VW will outsell GM there. The feat would return the German brand to the top of chart in China for the first time in nine years, but even the second-place getter won't be complaining too loudly: both automakers sold more than three million vehicles in a market pegged to hit 16 million sales this year.
Volkswagen said it could have sold more cars if it had had more production capacity in China. The arrival of a new-to-China Audi A4, a China-built A3 sedan, the VW Bora and Skoda Octavia, as well as an $18.2-billion-euro investment in the country to construct new factories, means VW should see its numbers grow in 2014. GM's lineup is expanding next year, too, adding four Chevrolet nameplates and two vehicles to its Baojun brand as it tries to get to five million in sales by 2015.
Among other automakers, Ford benefited from good product and woes for Japanese automakers over a territorial dispute with China, outselling Toyota by almost 32,000 units through the end of November. The Ford Focus is China's best-selling vehicle so far this year.
2014 Ford Mustang GT
Fri, 17 May 2013I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company
Thu, 03 Oct 2013
That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
