1955 Ford F-100 V8 Original Barn Find Survivor on 2040-cars
Wichita Falls, Texas, United States
|
Here is another from my collection up for sale. A 1955 Ford F100 original survivor. The clean and clear Texas title is ready to be transferred over to the new owner. The vin shows that this is an original truck out of the Dallas plant and goldenrod yellow since day one. Also shows the 239 v8 and three on the tree as original as well. A real survivor which was last registered in 84. My only goal on this truck was to bring it back to running condition since it had been sitting untouched for years under a cover in a garage. I did a complete oil change with filter, new fuel filter, fuel lines front to back and complete gas tank clean out. I completely disassembled the carb and cleaned it, I lubed and oiled all rockers,checked all of the pushrods, installed new intake gaskit when going back on as well. I had the original started rebuilt and a installed a new factory fuel pump. The first start was good with no unusual noise or smoke of anykind. I ran it last night in 38 degree weather for about 20 minutes and I believe it awake and nearly ready to go after years of sleep. The only thing that I would do is new brakes, a battery charge and possibly an alternator to get it road worthy. I forgot to mention, I also just installed a full set of 5 new cooper tires on it. As you can see it is very straight. I have found one rust area inside the rear driver fender at the bottom on the edge. Probably one of the best places for it to be. It cannot be seen from the outside either. The interior is nice as well. the windshield has a crack but can still be bought online. the side glass is new. I also have new handles andcranks that have not yet been installed. The rubbers all good too. This really is a survivor. WIth a buff and polish it would be real nice, i have not even cleaned it. The truck could be back on the road in a weekend! I might consider trade on a 69 chevelle if anyone has one. Thank you for looking, I will be happy to help in arranging shipping or help in loading the truck. Sold as is where is.
On Dec-06-13 at 18:38:37 PST, seller added the following information: I have had a couple of emails asking if this truck is show quality.I thought I would say that it is super clean and straight but not show quality. It is a nice and cool 58 year old truck. Thanks for all of the interest. |

eBay Find of the Day: Mk1 Ford GT40 with interesting history
Sat, 03 May 2014You might expect a rare Ford GT40 to cross the block at some sort of prestigious auto auction from RM or Gooding, not show up on eBay for over $2 million. However, that's exactly what we have here. The seller claims the car is a late-build Mk1 GT40 from 1969, and it's currently owned by the director of the Hublot watch company in Switzerland.
According to the listing, GT40 #P1108 started life as Mk1 car that was built from factory spares in 1969 and was first sold in 1971. However, the auction is somewhat confusing. According to an image in its gallery, the vehicle was actually built from one of the seven spare Mk3 tubs when production of the iconic racers ended.
This GT40 was never built as a racecar - it lived on the streets its whole life. After assembly finished, it was sent to Germany and was eventually registered for the road. The first owner kept the car until 2005 and sold it with 7,300 miles on the odometer. The current owner bought it in 2012.

Are we about to see a real SUV revival?
Wed, Mar 23 2016Now that the marketplace has been oversaturated with cute-utes, crossovers, and CUV coupes, are we about to see a resurgence of real, honest-to-God SUVs? Ummm... maybe. The stars seem to be aligning in that direction, at least that's the sense I'm getting. We know an all-new Jeep Wrangler is only a few auto shows away; and that Jeep is about to introduce a new Grand Cherokee Trailhawk for 2017, in the same rugged spirit of the successful Cherokee and Renegade Trailhawks. Ford has hinted at a neo-Bronco, after showing the concept above in 2014 to wet the mouths of all those Duck Dynasty-types out there. And, and... wait for it... I recently learned that Subaru sent a questionnaire out to some Forester owners asking if they might be interested in an off-road package if it were offered. The items listed were pretty hardcore, serious stuff, such as: integrated tow/recovery hooks, additional ground clearance, more rugged wheels, skid plates, altimeter, front-view off-road camera, improved approach and departure angles, advanced differentials, Inclinometer, full-size spare tire, upgraded off-road suspension components, more aggressive tires, off-road driving mode (engine, transmission, throttle, and steering settings), more rugged styling, low-range gearing, and a more advanced traction management system. Folks that's not my wish list (well, actually it is), but those are words from Subaru, asking if that's what customers would like to see. Need proof? Go to the SubaruForester.org website. It's in a discussion there. So... no promises or guarantees here, and feel free to call me a rumormonger if you like; but the next few years could prove very interesting for those who actually do go off road. If this pans out, remember, you read it here first. Related Video: Image Credit: Ford Ford Jeep Subaru Crossover SUV Off-Road Vehicles open road
