Engine:Flathead Eight
Drive Type: Rear
Make: Ford
Mileage: 0
Model: Other Pickups
Warranty: Vehicle does NOT have an existing warranty
Trim: goofy eBay here
The F5 has been in the family since the 1950s and is very low mileage and virtually rust free (cab, floorboards, etc, with minor surface rust)
The F3 one ton is also very nearly rust free, except in the base of the box and the floor of the box itself.
It has dents and the dash of the F5 was modified to accept a later radio many years ago.
No attempt has been made to crank the flathead engine and so no assertions regarding it can be made, except that it is intact and accessories are present.
It is a candidates for restoration, perhaps with other parts. It would greatly help an otherwise good running truck that needed a solid cab.
Cab has broken glass and dents. The hood of the F5 is probably damaged beyond anything but a major rehab.
I have a title - for the F5, and will supply "AS IS" Bill of Sale for all parts (both identified trucks)
I will also accommodate the dismantling of the F5 if the buyer wants only the sheet metal parts (for a fixed additional cost we can discuss and agree upon ahead of time.)
The Pluses:
* You might see on the surface of the two cabs but it is just that, a thin layer of easily removable surface rust.
* It is a Montana vehicle, for at least the past 40 years. As such, much of the corrosion and rust issues of other regional cars is not there.
* Some of the flat glass may need replacing, but then that is no problem.
* There is a clear title in my hot little hand.
The frame, rocker panels and underbelly appear to be very solid. The trucks appear to have never been wrecked or substantively repaired. There is no visible bondo or other filler anywhere.
The Negatives:
* There is isolated rust. floor pans seem very solid, indeed.
* There are a couple of the flat glass windows which are cracked - easily replaceable just about anywhere.
* There are a number of minor dents and the F5 hood, espceially, is pretty dinged.
* The interior is largely complete. Some of the nobs and handles are missing.
* It needs all the standard attention any unrestored 60 odd-year old trucks would likely need.
This is an awesome project package or very nice replacement cabs for rolling stock you may have.

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
Weekly Recap: Chevy and Alfa plot comeback strategies
Sat, Jun 27 2015Chevrolet and Alfa Romeo were two of the 20th Century's most iconic automotive brands. Chevy embodied America's post-war power and confidence. Alfa was the definition of the stylish Italian sports car. They reached halcyon heights in the 1950s and '60s, before declining precipitously amid new competition, changing consumer tastes, and uneven corporate management. Both say 2015 is the start of something better, and this week Chevy and Alfa laid out ambitious plans and showcased new cars that they hope will make them more relevant this year, and in the coming years. Each brand sits at its own crossroads, and their paths forward are as different as the Chevy Cruze and the Alfa Romeo Giulia. Chevy is still a sales beast, as evidenced by its volume of 4.8 million vehicles sold around the world last year. Chevy executives are fond of saying one of their cars is sold every seven seconds, which illustrates the strength and reach of a car brand that is the fourth largest in the world. "Make no mistake about it, we are a brand for the people," said General Motors North America president Alan Batey. But he wants consumers to want to buy a Chevy for its design and technology, not simply because it's affordable. That starts with all Chevys now featuring a distinctive a family look, with sporty cues from the Corvette or strong lines that riff on the Silverado pickup. "We want people to fall in lust with our cars," said Mike Pevovar, executive design director for Chevy passenger cars. "That initial emotional attraction has to be right on the exterior, and that's where form comes into play." Chevy is also loading up its cars, like the freshly unveiled 2016 Chevy Cruze, with technology to appeal to a younger crowd that prizes connectivity. The Cruze will offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with its MyLink infotainment system, and OnStar with 4G LTE and wifi. Seeking out younger buyers is also sound business practice: Millennials now outnumber Baby Boomers as the largest single age group in the United States. Younger buyers also can improve a brand's image, which is another area where Chevy would like to improve. Chevy ranks 82nd on Interbrand's Best Global Brand's list, behind 11 other automakers. Apple is No. 1. "We need our own variation of the Genius Bar," Batey said. 2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia View 3 Photos Meanwhile, Alfa is in different shape.
This unique '64 Mustang was Edsel Ford II's first car
Thu, 02 Jan 2014You probably had the same dream when you were a teenager. Your sixteenth birthday is coming up, or Christmas, or maybe both, and all you want is a muscle car to call your own. That dream has come true for some, and one of them was none other than Edsel Ford II.
Henry Ford's great grandson turned 16 on December 27, 1964 - two days after Christmas and eight months after the original Mustang went on sale. And that's just what was waiting for him in the driveway, courtesy of his father (and reigning chief executive) Henry Ford II.
The specially-prepared pony car had a pearlescent cream paintjob with narrow blue racing stripes, functional hood scoop, chrome trim, Euro-spec fender-mounted mirrors, a blue leather and aluminum interior, a monogrammed fuel cap... and a 289-cubic-inch V8 under the hood.
