1958 Ford F-100 1/2 Ton Flareside Shortbed on 2040-cars

Leesville, Louisiana, United States

1958 FORD F-100 1/2 Ton Flareside Shortbed with the 289 Straight 6 Engine and a 3 Speed Standard Transmission on the Column. I have recently replaced tons of parts on it including,

New Mastercraft Avenger G/T 255/70R15 Tires

New Clutch, Throwout Bearing, Release Bearing, Slave Cylinder, & Master Cylinder

New Front Brakes & Brake Cylinders

New Rear Brakes, Brake Cylinders, & Brake Lines

New U Joints

I have also just installed new wood in the bed. It fires right up when you turn the key and runs great but it can still use alittle more work to get it to perfect shape. Stuff like the drivers side window is cracked and needs to be replaced, the radio is no good and could use a new one, the engine runs good but I have not done any work to it, and I think it could use some new shocks also. Was restoring for someone when health issues arose resulting in this truck being put up for sale or will also consider trades. Email me for trade discussions prooilxchange@bellsouth.net, keep in mind I will require seeing and driving the trade options before agreeing to a deal and I live in Leesville, LA this is where you will be bringing it to me for review. It is for sale or trade locally so I reserve the option of canceling all deals if it sales prematurely.

Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost sales robust in early going

Tue, 13 May 2014

Okay, okay, okay, so I was just a smidge wrong. Those that read my review of the Ford Fiesta with the new 1.0-liter, EcoBoost engine will know that while I really enjoyed the torquey little three-cylinder, I was concerned that Ford's decision to force 1.0-liter owners into a manual transmission, steel wheels and one trim level might hurt sales of the new engine. I was also concerned that the promised 45-mile-per-gallon highway rating wouldn't be enough to tempt buyers into trying an engine that's so far outside of what the general public is use to. My concerns, though, seem to have been for naught.
While not doing a booming business on the triple-equipped Fiesta, Ford is seeing a take rate of four to eight percent per month in the engine's first few months on sale. Now, four to eight percent might not sound like a lot - if, like last year, the Fiesta sells around 71,000 units, there'd be barely 5,600 1.0-liter models on the road. It is also small potatoes relative to the take rate on EcoBoost-equipped vehicles across the Ford range, which US sales analyst Erich Merkle estimates to be roughly 35 to 40 percent of retail sales. Still, according to The Detroit News, the 1.0-liter is getting adopted at roughly the same rate as the sparkling Fiesta ST, which should be a solid indication of just how well this little engine is doing.
The 1.0-liter's success "really speaks volumes, not just to what we're doing with the Fiesta, but with EcoBoost in general," Merkle told Autoblog.

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014



The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.

Ford F-150 Tremor to pace NASCAR Truck Series this weekend

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

Ford's bro-tastic F-150 Tremor will be pacing this weekend's NASCAR Camping World Truck Series at Michigan International Speedway. The Tremor fills a gap in the Ford F-Series lineup that we imagine the NASCAR set have clamored for - a hot-rod pickup truck.
Where the F-150 Raptor is designed to go quick on anything, the Tremor and its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 are designed to tackle the road. The 365-horsepower and 420-pound-foot EcoBoost is unchanged from the rest of the F-150 line, but it combines the shortest drive ratio with the lightest two-door body, making it a bit of hot rod.
Ford will be offering hot laps with Michigan native Brad Keselowski behind the wheel of the Tremor for fans that arrive in the Irish Hills on August 14. The main showing for the new pickup will be the August 17 race, though, when it'll lead the field at the start of the race and through cautions.
