Beautiful Classic Truck, Great Driver, Patina Rustic Paint Work * 8' Bed * Clean on 2040-cars
Raleigh, North Carolina, United States

Up for purchase is a very unique Ford pickup truck. I have owned this truck for years, however I don't frequently drive it. Great looking stance (lowered - budget spring cut), great mechanical condition and reliable with every start attempt. Starts and drives every time, shifts very well, brakes are functional, windows roll up and down, radio is missing but the wiring is there. The engine was rebuilt about 6-7k miles ago, transmission has less than 500 miles since rebuild (oil pump and torque converter). Holly carb, e-cam, shorty headers, flowmaster exhaust - all else is stock. Cosmetically the truck had surface rust from the paint and clear coat fading over the years, however we did apply a topical rust treatment and then proceeded to freehand a variety of copper, blue, gold, brown and pearl shades to the paint. We then clearcoated the truck with a satin finish clearcoat (plastidip). It can easily all be removed if someone were to opt for a full or partial restoration. Interior is stock and nearly mint - including a brand new dash pad and new upgraded bench seat. The bed floorboard had rust from having trash and debris stored in it for years (held moisture) however the bed is functional again because of the new wood floor bed insert that was fabricated for it. The truck I believe was equipped with factory air since new, but I don't believe it's functional anymore. Heat works. Tires are in good shape and are fairly new. The ride is very stiff and bouncy due to the lowering procedures - however there's a great deal of aftermarket support for these platforms and a smooth suspension can be installed very inexpensively per the new owner's preference. I built this truck as a display piece and occasional cruiser around town. It's been parked in front of my shop for awhile now and I am ready to let it go to a new home. If you have trade offers or would like to inquire about additional work you'd like done to this truck, I can quote that and make arrangements for completion. It's a mechanically reliable, head-turning long bed truck - use it for whatever you'd creatively think of. I own a specialty fabrication shop in Raleigh NC and i'd love to answer any questions you may have about the truck. Please call or text before bidding if you are unsure about your decision - I will report any unpaid activity. My number is 9one92642OO7 Feel free to make trade offers. Happy bidding. |

Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1
Mon, 21 Apr 2014Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.

Production Ford Escort heading for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Ford's long-dormant Escort nameplate returned affixed to a sedan concept at last year's Shanghai Motor Show. While not exactly a beauty, it showed a clean, straightforward take on Ford's current styling. The Blue Oval said at the time that it wanted to create a model that was stylish "but not one that is arrogant or pretentious." Job done. A year later, it looks like the minimalist vehicle might make its production debut at the Beijing Motor Show.
Autocar claims that the streetgoing version has been confirmed to it for the upcoming show, but so far, Ford isn't saying. If unveiled, the Escort is likely to be produced locally for the Chinese market with a domestic partner. Powertrain details remain a secret, but it seems highly likely that any production model would use a small three- or four-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. Sales in other major world markets like ours are unlikely, but a test car was recently spotted in Europe.
Autoblog contacted Ford for confirmation, but the automaker demurred, with a spokesperson saying only, "At the moment, we are not confirming any vehicles planned for the show." It looks like we will have to wait to know for sure.
