Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"This F-1 pickup was restored 12 years ago. It has been in the barn for 6 years. The paint needs to be removed and repainted. The tires are weather checked and need to be replaced. After the tires are replaced, it can be driven home."

Up for auction today is a 1949 F-1 pickup truck that was restored in 2001. This truck was not restored to original condition. It was updated to a 1967 Buick 430 cubic inch engine by Kenny Bell Racing, along with a Mustang 2 front end with disc brakes. The transmission is a 400 GM with a 2800 stall converter and a 9 inch Ford rear axle. The work was done by professionals and I have some receipts. The total cost of the restoration was $20,000 in 2001 value of money.

This truck was driven for 6 years and was put in the barn. We have now removed the truck from the barn and the condition is as follows:
It needs the paint stripped because it is cracked and peeling, I am told the primer has failed.
The tires are cracked and weathered and will need replaced. No, you cannot drive this home with existing tires!! I have not put new tires on it because they may not be the rims that the new buyer wants to use. If you decide to drive it home after putting 15 inch tires on it, it will make it without a problem.
The truck starts, drives forward, drives backward, it stops, has turn signals, no seat belts, no radio, but is just a cool truck.

I have decided not to do the restoration because it may not be what a new owner would want, ie; paint color, size of wheels, width of tires, upholstery, etc.

This truck is a solid base with the hard work done(except for paint). You can make it as you would like it, rat rod, low rider, with satin black and moonies or high gloss two tone paint or old school. It is up to you. The base is there.

The condition of the body is as follows:
There is some rust starting at the bottom of the door pillar where it was previously repaired.
There is some repair around the hood's front edge.
The paint has cracked and peeled from the cab and the bed.
The bed's wood floor has one piece that has deteriorated and needs replaced.
The pictures show the problem areas.
If you need additional pictures, let me know.

Ford motor company only made this body style for 3 years. Then they went to the F-100. You can drive this truck with new tires on it and not do anything. These trucks are getting more rare to find, especially in this condition. The standard verbage here on eBay is, "I have too many projects and this one has got to go" and it is true in my case. Watch for future auctions as I will list other projects that I will never get to .

I will not ship this vehicle. However, I will help load and assist a transporter. Your best bet is to contact Uship.com or a broker and the preferred way is to come and get it. We are located in Charlotte, MI approximately 20 miles South of Lansing, just off Interstate 69.

Payment of $500.00 earnest money deposit from the winning bidder, which is NON-REFUNDABLE, within 24 hours of the close of the auction via Paypal, cash or wire transfer. The balance must be paid by cash, cashiers check or personal check, however, all funds must clear my bank before the title is delivered and the vehicle leaves my property.

I reserve the right to cancel the auction early because I have this truck listed elsewhere and is for sale locally.

Now that all the legal requirements are met, I will add that in my view, this is a nice truck. It is going to take some work to restore to showroom condition, but I am not ashamed to drive it in its present condition. In fact, I got thumbs up driving it from the barn to the shop. People are stopping to look at it every day that it has been outside.

Good luck bidding!!

Three electric vehicles — none produced by an American manufacturer Â— will compete next month for the title of 2024 World Car of the Year, it was announced Monday. The finalists are the Kia EV9, the Volvo EX30Â and the BYD SealÂ (shown above). The latter two are built in China. The three top finalists in five other categories were also named at the Geneva Motor Show in Switzerland. The winners in all six categories will be revealed live during an awards ceremony at the New York International Auto Show on March 27. This year marks the 20th year of the World Car Awards and the partnership with the New York show. Besides car of the year, the other finalists are: Electric vehicle: BMW i5, Kia EV9, Volvo EX30; Luxury car: BMW 5 Series/i5, Mercedes Benz E-Class, Mercedes Benz EQE SUV; Performance car: BMW M2, BMW XM, Hyundai Ionia 5 N; Urban car: BYD Dolphin, Lexus LBX, Volvo EX30; World Car Design: Ford Bronco, Ferrari Purosangue, Toyota Prius. Only Ford among U.S. companies has an entry in the final selections, and only in one category, design, for the Bronco. BMW has four vehicles in the finals, Volvo has three, Kia and Mercedes have two each. BYD from China has two entries as well. The Seal went on sale in in its home market in 2022 and is now available in most of the rest of the world. The BYD Co. (which stands for Build Your Dreams) has surpassed Tesla to become the worldÂ’s biggest maker of electric vehicles, and has its sights set on the U.S. The selection process for World Cars involves 100-plus automotive journalists from 29 countries who vote, as they review and test-drive the eligible vehicles for the 2024 awards. Their journey is captured virtually on World Car TV. Design/Style Geneva Motor Show BMW Ferrari Ford Hyundai Kia Lexus Mercedes-Benz Toyota Volvo Best Cars World Car of the Year

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."
