Ford Econoline Pickup Rust Free 1961,1962,1963,1964,1965,1966,1967 on 2040-cars
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
This is a 1961 Ford Econoline pickup truck I bought in Arizona and it is still in Arizona and it is now and always has been a rust free truck. I took some pictures of the outside edge of the box and you can see all the original spot welds are still there also I took pictures of the bottom of the truck and as you can see there is no rust on the bottom of the truck. Look closely at the floor on the inside of the truck and you can see there is no rust repair at all just nice cleanly painted floors with no repairs. I own Kevins Klassic Cars in Cannon Falls Mn and you can look us up on U tube and look at our 200K plus cars going through Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale Arizona. The same guys painted this truck that does those cars (My shop employees) Obviously we didn't put a 30K paint job on this car but they certainly know what they are doing and this is a very nice paint job. The truck has been sitting for about 18 months so there is a small scratch in the passenger fender, there are two scratches in the front bumper and there is a small spider crack about the size of a silver dollar in the tail gate. The paint job is very nice but not perfect. I would say it is a 8 out of 10 and extremely respectable for this price range of trunk. The bottom of the box was professionally sprayed with bed liner and the back of the tail gate was sprayed with bed liner. We had them blend in the color of the truck with their product so it would all look the same. This was not done to hide anything as you can see the sides of the bed and the front of the bed have no bed liner on them. But I thought I would use the truck from time to time so I had that put in to save on the scratches. It has worked perfect because there are no scratches at all on the floor.(It might be because I haven't used it but who can say) The wheels, trim rings and the hub caps are all from a 69 Mustang. We media blasted the wheels and painted them all around and the wheels look excellent. The tires are brand new radial tires size 14 inch and they still have the nubs on them and the one still has the original sticker on it. The wheels and tires are excellent they add a lot to the truck. The front windshield is brand new and the gasket for the windshield is brand new, the corner windows are used and are not perfect but you cant buy them new but the gaskets they are sitting in are new. I have both the rear window and the side glass and you can see it in the pictures of the parts that still need to be put on. We rebuilt the wheel cylinders on the front wheels and got the brakes to work however this is only good for short distances and loading and unloading the truck the back wheels will still need to be done. The engine runs but as of right now we are using a gallon can for the gas source because the gas tank either needs replaced or cleaned out (Didn't try it but only guessing it needs cleaned out since it has sat in the desert state of Arizona) The carb on the trunk has been rebuilt and it starts very easily. We also put on a new exhaust manifold gasket and while we had that off we replaced the freeze plugs behind there just in case there was a problem. We didn't try the charging system so we don't know if the generator works or not. The water pump is leaking but for a car sitting around that is very common and a fairly easy fix. The truck can be started, driven and the brakes work, so if you send a company out to pick the truck up they can start it and load it no problem and we are glad to help. The bottom of the seats, the dog house, the battery box and pretty much so everything inside has been media blasted and painted as you can see from the pictures. The seat frames themselves will need to be media blasted and painted then have them recovered. I had a quote to have the foam put on and the seat covers installed for 500 dollars but I never got around to doing it. You will still need to buy door gaskets and felts and gaskets for the side windows. The wing windows I have both seals front and back for the wing windows on both sides. I also have new front turn signal lenses and rear tail light lenses they will be here by the time you pick up the truck. A lot of the work has been done on this truck all the paint and body work is done and ready to go. Mostly what needs to be done at this point is the seats and headliner on the interior, the rest of the dash needs to be put back together and the truck will need a battery we will supply a battery just to start the truck and load it but there is no battery in the battery box. Everything to this point has been done professionally and not half way. If you have any questions feel free to give me a call or you can come out and look at the truck. The truck is at a friends house of mine because he had a lift so I could take the pictures on the bottom. Thanks Kevin Manley. 612-275-8722 I have a clear Arizona title that comes with the truck. I have an extremely low starting price about 1/4 of what I have into the truck and then there is no reserve. Obviously I am hoping for a lot more then that but only the bidders will determine that. |

Weekly Recap: Volkswagen moves forward under Muller
Sat, Sep 26 2015Most stunning was the speed of it all. On the morning of September 18, Volkswagen AG stood atop the automotive world. It was profitable and sold more cars than Toyota and General Motors, its two main rivals for global supremacy. By nightfall, the company would be embroiled in scandal. Revelations the German auto giant cheated on diesel emissions testing in the United States reverberated from Washington to Wolfsburg, Germany. What started out as a problem with 482,000 VWs and Audis in the US exploded into an international scandal. Millions of vehicles have the rigged software, meaning VW broke environmental rules as its cars spewed pollutants all over the world. The fallout began immediately. Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn – one of the most respected and capable executives in the business – apologized on Sunday and Tuesday. On Wednesday he resigned. As the week progressed, the company's stock took a beating and credit agencies threatened to drop their ratings. VW dealers and owners said they felt betrayed. The automaker hired a law firm that defended BP after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The EPA is already extending its testing procedures to look for "defeat devices" like the ones used by Volkswagen. On Friday the company announced a major restructuring. Matthias Muller, Porsche's chief for the last five years, took over as CEO of Volkswagen and is charged with picking up the pieces of a shattered company facing regulatory action and lawsuits. With GM, Toyota, and Takata scandals still fresh, Volkswagen will likely experience unprecedented levels of scrutiny. Additionally, VW's markets in the United States, Canada, and Mexico will be combined into a North American region under the leadership of former Skoda boss Winfried Vahland, though US chief executive Michael Horn will stay on. The company is also realigning its brands by specialty and streamlining its board. Firings, government action, restructurings, and international outrage – things that usually build up over months or years – all occurred in about a week. With dizzying speed, Volkswagen's future has changed dramatically. It all happened, it's still happening, so fast. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Buick Cascada to start at $33,990 Buick hasn't made a convertible in 25 years. That's a whole person who can drink plus a kindergartner. So it's been awhile. Enter the 2016 Buick Cascada. It has top-shelf Opel engineering, slinky design, and it's reasonably priced.
Ford gets its Movement on, releases 'Sounds of Focus' tracks
Sun, 25 May 2014Ford has, for at least the second year in a row, teamed up with techno promoter Paxahau and a couple of artists to make music in recognition of the Detroit Movement music festival. This time, Movement performers Ataxia and Secrets were selected by Ford, and were invited to spend some time at the automaker's Michigan Assembly Plant, which gives birth to the Ford Focus and Focus Electric models.
Now that we know the what, how about the why? According to Ford, "Detroit is uniquely tied to the origins of the electronic music scene. In the 1980's variations of electronic music stemmed from inspirations of industry, including the automotive sector." So, there you go. If you're interest is piqued, feel free to read the press release, watch the video and listen to the tracks below.
Autoblog's June 2019 Editors' Picks
Wed, Jul 10 2019Each year we review, test and rate hundreds of brand-new cars, trucks and SUVs. We rate these vehicles using the Autoblog score, giving a select few our Editors’ Pick. Here are the best cars we drove in June 2019. 2019 BMW 8 Series Everyone on the Autoblog staff loves a good grand tourer, so we were excited to get behind the wheel of the revived BMW 8 Series, specifically an M850i Coupe. A good GT needs to be as fast as it is stylish and comfortable, and the new 8 Series delivers. We particularly like the 523-horsepower twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8Â’s copious power and smooth ride quality, even on MichiganÂ’s pockmarked post-winter roads. We dig the interior design, too, though not everyone was in love with the exterior. ItÂ’s not the best-handling car in its class, and doesnÂ’t hide its sizable proportions very well, but itÂ’s still worth a look if youÂ’re looking for a big, fast cruiser. 2019 Ford Expedition Crossovers may be the hottest vehicles on the market, but thereÂ’s still a sizable demand for traditional body-on-frame SUVs like the Ford Expedition. These behemoths offer plenty of space in addition to truck-like capability. We like the Expedition's smooth ride, powerful twin-turbo V6 and sharp exterior design, though the interior can feel a bit cheap, especially on some of the more expensive trims. Adding options quickly puts it into Lincoln Navigator territory, and itÂ’s hard to recommend the Ford over the Lincoln when the latter packs the same capability into a far nicer package. Still, the Expedition is as good or better than the competition in most respects, and thatÂ’s why itÂ’s one of our picks. 2019 Toyota 86 Few cars at any price point are as much fun as the Toyota 86 (and its twin, the Subaru BRZ). We like the 86Â’s balanced chassis and sharp steering, and while itÂ’s not as nimble as its close rival the Mazda MX-5 Miata, the ToyotaÂ’s back seat and trunk make it a more usable vehicle. But while we like the 86Â’s driving position, the rest of the interior feels cheap and dated, especially the infotainment system. We complained about the anemic powertrain back in 2012, and itÂ’s only gotten worse as the years have gone by.
