This is a 1949 Ford F1 Pickup Truck. I do not know a lot of the history of this truck, but i do know this truck is mostly original. It was restored about 10 years ago. I bought it after an estate sale. I will tell you honestly what i do know. It is equipped with a Flathead Ford V8 engine and a 3-speed manual transmission with the shifter on the floor. The engine starts easily and appears to fire on all cylinders .Compression is 105-115 PSI  on all cylinders. The oil pressure is 35-50 lbs hot when checked with a Stewart Warner Gauge using fresh Valvoline 10w30 oil without any other additives. The factory oil gauge works well and is now being used. The Fuel and Temperature Gauges also work. The ammeter does not work. The transmission and rear axle seem to be ok. While much time and money has been spent on this truck, it is not perfect. It had not been driven for at least a year before i bought it. The clutch chatters somewhat, but is getting better the more it is driven. Also, the lifters tick. They are getting quieter as the truck has been driven. The front suspension feels somewhat loose, The master cylinder has been rebuilt and all the wheel cylinders and brake shoes have been replaced. Brake drums were turned. All new brake hoses. Radiator is in good shape and there are no coolant leaks. The gas tank has been boiled out and sealed with a ceramic sealer. All fuel lines are new, as is the fuel pump. The carburetor has been rebuilt. New fuel filter. Wiring is in good shape. This truck has a new factory style wiring harness. All glass appears to be new. Windows roll up and down easily. Air cleaner is included, but was removed for pictures. Bed floor is new. Running boards appear to be new. Please look at the pictures for more condition info. Better yet, inspect it yourself, or have someone you trust inspect it. I have a clear Florida title in my name. This is an as-is, where-is sale. Questions? I want you to be happy with your purchase. Call me (407)474-3782. thanks, jack

Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?

Mon, Feb 27 2017

We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.

Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
