RARE 1940 Panel Delivery 1/2 ton. A clear Kansas title is on it's way with a clear reading original frame stamped Vehicle ID number in the correct place. **The next to last picture is a file photo of "vision completed"; sculptured to it's 1940 showroom moment (WHAT THIS PROJECT IS CAPABLE OF BECOMING, & I think this one for sale was same blue color paint). The last photo is my fun 1940 pick up truck is last picture (seperately listed on Ebay for sale.
Solid metal throughout considering. Some inner original floor & side wood still in place. This truck is worth my Buy Now price even if you are going to just remove & install the body on another Ford chassis or onto a Hot Rod ready chassis. Both doors are solid with crank mechanisms; neither are latching, hinges are solid but need correct pins (no glass other then patterns stored in cargo). Rear doors seem decent.
It does roll & steer. The steering column/wheel is correct for original restore; steering wheel is not. There are no brakes; can be put into gear for transport position lock. Flathead motor is stuck/locked up. Has an ""extra fender"" to replace the much dented right rear fender. Has Mercury rippled/custom bumpers. Rear one installed, front one inside truck cargo area. Gas tank is totally bad; I will include a "fuel cell" with foams (about $200 value) for temporary restore fuel supply or for Hot Rod conversion. Beauty rings included. Call 904-881-3495 for info. As is sale. For sale/trade-cash up/down locally.
On Feb-01-13 at 05:20:53 PST, seller added the following information:
There is one of these (1940) a buyer can get for about the price mine is bid to now. It does not steer, frame is shot, body is falling down around frame/dragging on ground (no floor & not much cross support), no engine, no trans, no inner woods, rear doors shot, etc. Which means: you want this truck I have for sale that has some solidarity to it -BUCK up the moola; pay the price; accept the reality. This truck can be lifted off the frame, repaired/prepped for original or hot rod, and bolted back down to its solid frame or hot rod chassis. It won't crumble in the process. $30,000 + market value when done, whether it is made original or hot rodded. If you plan on waiting for a miracle (your price purchase around $3000), please MOVE ON. This will sell for around my price, or never! The frame without the body is worth $2000. Add the body (or fabricate one?) value & ownership clear title with a factory stamped frame; walla-your purchase price is my Ebay price as you see it. If you find another delivery truck WWII wholy grail project better than this at this price-buy it.

Ford, Renault have surprises in store for Le Mans
Tue, Jun 9 2015All those prototype and GT racers won't be the only attraction catching our eye at the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend. Two major automakers have also confirmed that they've got new metal to unveil. And while they're not saying exactly what they'll be, we've got some pretty good ideas. First up is Ford, which has announced a "major Ford Performance news announcement" on Friday. Chairman Bill Ford, CEO Mark Fields, and product development chief Raj Nair will be on hand for the announcement set to take place on Friday at 10:00 AM Eastern. The Blue Oval isn't saying just what it has in store, but the widespread speculation has been that it will present a racing version of the new Ford GT at Le Mans a good half century since the original GT40 raced there. Meanwhile, Renault has announced that it is marking the 60th anniversary of the Alpine marque at Le Mans this Saturday. The French automaker has been working on reviving the dormant marque, and looks poised to finally reveal its new sports car at its iconic home endurance race this weekend. Tipped to be called the Alpine AS1, the new sports car will bring the marque back out of retirement in a more real way than the ELMS-winning LMP2 prototype ever could. Expect it to be based on the mid-engined chassis underpinning the Renault RS 01 spec racer, but built for the road.

Radical RXC is a Mustang-hearted racecar for the road
Fri, May 30 2014Radical has been building fantastic open-cockpit racers and roadcars for years, for the track day enthusiast who wants a vehicle that looks like it could show up for a start at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The company's latest creation is the RXC, and while this coupe looks like a prototype racer, it's road legal in the UK and in some parts of the US. When testing a car this, um, radical, the first thought is likely to get it to the track for some big slides and wide open acceleration, but XCar Films takes the opposite approach in its latest video to learn how this racer fares on public roads. The version tested here is the standard RXC with the 3.7-liter V6 out of the Ford Mustang tuned to 350 horsepower with a seven-speed sequential gearbox; but Radical also offers the same engine with 380-hp, a 454-hp Ford EcoBoost 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6, or even a 500-hp V8. Even in the most basic guise, it's a handful to control in the wet, if this video is any indication. The cliche of a road-legal racecar is bandied around a lot in the motoring world, but it truly applies to the RXC. The only problem with seeing the RXC exclusively on the road is that it can never really open up and show its full potential. This racer is indeed chomping at the bit to rocket off into the horizon, but all those pesky road safety laws hold it back. Still, the video is a chance to get a better impression about this thoroughbred sports car. Scroll down to check it out. This content is hosted by a third party.

Ford, Chrysler and Mazda expand scope of Takata airbag recalls
Fri, Dec 5 2014The scope of the Takata airbag inflator recall is ballooning once again across the United States. Where Honda has elected to take its driver-side airbag campaign nationwide, Chrysler Group and Ford have now announced expanded regional actions to cover some passenger-side airbag inflators. Mazda is adding more regions, as well. For Chrysler Group, the campaign covers the inflators on 149,150 examples of the 2003-model-year Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickups. The recall is limited to vehicles sold or ever registered in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and the territories of American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, Saipan, and the Virgin Islands. The company will begin notifying affected customers on January 19. According to Chrysler's announcement of the action, the passenger side inflators in these trucks "are of a type that is not used in any of the other vehicles affected by Chrysler Group's regional field action." The automaker says that it's not aware of any actual failures or accidents in these pickups and even claims there are no "observed failures in laboratory testing of its airbag modules." The company is continuing to study the problem, though. Ford is taking a similar step by issuing a recall of inflators for 38,500 examples of the 2004-2005 Ranger and 2005-2006 Ford GT. The campaign only affects vehicles originally sold or ever registered in Florida, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Certain zip codes of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Guam, Saipan and American Samoa are also covered. There's already precedent for passenger-side airbags to be covered under the Takata inflator recall. When many automakers announced campaigns in June, BMW, Chrysler, Ford, Honda, Mazda, Nissan and Toyota all included that side in some of their repairs. Subaru subsequently did, as well. In addition, Mazda is expanding the scope of its recall to add Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Saipan, Guam, American Samoa, US Virgin Islands, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas to the affected areas. The company estimates that it has a total of 86,773 vehicles in need of repair. Mazda is also teaming with Toyota to begin independent testing of the Takata inflators.
