This is a recent build custom 1929 model A Ford Roadster Pickup truck with an all steel body. The truck's body resides over the boxed custom frame for a channeled look. The grille is a 1932 "Duece" with a custom made hood (off in most pictures). All the undercarriage is painted and detailed to match the body with all high quality components and nothing skimped on. The undercarriage has mounted external battery post (see capped in pictures) for easy access if needed and a battery tender pre wired lead. The Drivetrain is a 350 crate motor mated to a TH350 automatic turning a Ford 8". The motor has an Edelbrock intake and carb, High energy ignition system, Sanderson Lakester Headers with removable patented baffles that work very well. The car has presence but is not too loud with the baffles. The sound is very comfortable at cruising speeds and just right when accelerating. The aluminum radiator temperature stays at 180 and has a thermostat controlled electric fan. The interior is very well done with bomber seats and red to highlight the black body. All gauges are fully functional as well as turn signals, all lights and a 3 speed heater for chilly rides home from the local ice cream parlor.

The truck drives excellent and you can take your hands off the wheel at any highway speed and it drives straight and true. The suspension works very well with coil overs and panard bar in the rear and a really well set up dropped front axel with disc brakes, chromed shocks, stabilizer and hair pins. 

This truck is ready to show or drive and will draw a lot of attention wherever it goes. Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer and I will assist in any way I can to make sure pickup goes without any issues. I utilized J.J. Best and the Bank of Bristol TN who holds the title to finance a portion of this truck which will be retrieved upon payment of balance.

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.

Ford increasing Super Duty production by 15 percent

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Ford has announced a hefty $80 million investment in its Kentucky Truck Plant, which is responsible for building the F-250, F-350, F-450 and F-550 versions of the Super Duty pickup. The influx of cash will add 350 jobs to the factory.
The investment is also good for a 15-percent increase in annual production thanks to retooling and other facility upgrades, which equates to an extra 55,000 units of production. Considering that Ford makes even more money off its Super Duty than it does on the hot-selling F-150, this could mean some serious coin to Ford's bottom line.
Hop below for the full press release from Ford on its latest investment.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
