This beautiful 1950 Ford truck was built in Canada and is virtually the same as the F1 build in the US. The only differences I have noticed between the F1 and F47 are the heavy duty oil filter, the built in engine block heater, and the heater box in the cab. The original flathead v8 looks and runs like new. This vehicle went through a frame off restoration in the early 1990's. Since then I believe there have only been 640 miles put on the truck. I have had it 2 years and have put on less than 100 miles. This vehicle even has the original oil filled air filter. the bed conditions and underside are in excellent condition.

The vehicle includes 5 new correct Coker tubed tires.

The car starts right up and runs great. Just performed a full tune up and replaced all fluids. 12 Volt conversion. Everything works, wipers, headlights, brake lights. I have replaced the 2 water pumps and the radiator. I still have the originals and will include.

I did add the rear bumper from LMC so I could pass inspection in NY.

The only known issue is that the heater core in the heater box leaks. I pulled it out and sent it for repair, but it just came back leaking.

Negatives of the original restoration project are available.

Former Ford CEO Mulally won't run for president

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."

Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list

Mon, 20 Jan 2014

Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.

Tanner Foust tackles 'Ring in SVT Raptor

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

Here's a math problem: if Tanner Foust has a 24 hours to kill in Germany and one blue Ford Raptor, how long will it take him to decide he wants to lap The Nürburgring? Extra credit if you can get your answer precise to the millisecond.
A very truck-like and slidey lap of the 'Ring is exactly what happened when the Ford-sponsored rallycross driver took time off from set-up duties for his 'day job.' Thankfully no one even thought to worry about posting a time, but you can watch some Raptor skid marks getting laid down between the kerbs in the video below.
