1955 Ford F-100, Short Bed, Custom Cab, with a 292 V8.  I have a clear Utah Title in my name.  This truck was restored and optioned by the previous owner. It was parked in his family's farm shed in Kansas. The owner passed away and the family left the truck, unattended, for over 25 years. I own the truck and have moved it to Utah, but I need to sell it. I have too many projects and not enough time.  Please closely read my description and review all of the photos. I want the new owner to know exactly what they are getting. I highly value my 100% positive feedback on Ebay and I want the new owner to be satisfied with my truck The reserve on the truck is lower than its value.

The truck is very complete and comes with an extra, period correct, automatic transmission if you decided to change out the original manual transmission. This is a good restoration project.  The major rust issue is in the driver's side floor. There are minor rust issues in the cab corners, but over all the rust problems are not serious and can be repaired without replacing panels.  The Ford 292 V8 Engine is free and should start with a new set of spark-plug wires. The key to the locking gas cap is included along with the ignition keys. The wood bed slats are rotten and need to be replaced. The driver's side hood hinge doesn't work properly. The battery box has rust, but the battery box door and sides are in good condition. The truck has 1954 Chevrolet taillights that can be used or removed. The previous owner tried to wood panel the dash and door panels. The original metal is in good condition underneath the thin wood paneling. The interior was torn up and it is missing the seat.  The seats are easy to find. Again, please look closely at all of the photos.  If you have questions, please give me a call.  My home phone number is (801) 745-0599 or email me through the Ebay message system. If you want to make a "Buy Now" offer, let me know.

If you have less than 5 positive feedbacks on Ebay, please call or email me before bidding.  I want this to be a good, straightforward, auction. I can store the truck for a reasonable time period, and I will gladly ship the truck anywhere in the world. The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and the truck is sold as is. You are welcome to come and see the truck if you want to. A $250.00 PayPal deposit is required within 24 hours of the auction closing - unless other arrangements are made.  Good luck bidding. This is a good old truck that deserves a good restoration.

Ford GT40 makes historic return to racing at Goodwood

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Is there a more iconic, American racecar than the Ford GT40? That may be a discussion for another day (although by all means, tell us how wrong we are in Comments), but this video of heaps of GT40s running in the Goodwood Revival races certainly has us thinking that Ford's Ferrari-killer might just be the best racer the Land Of The Free and Home Of The Brave has ever come up with.
That's completely ignoring the fact that the GT40 was largely developed by Brits using American money, but that's besides the point (there was also a rather brash Texan, who had a big role later in development). The resulting vehicle was dominant, besting the cars of Il Commendatore from 1966 to 1969, although it should be noted that Ford's GT40 was unable to beat Ferrari in its first two Le Mans outings in 1964 and 1965.
Those four years of dominance, which started with Ford sweeping the podium, were enough to establish the GT40's legend. And now, here we are almost 50 years later, celebrating the mid-engined monsters at Goodwood, in their first ever one-make race. Take a look below for the entire video.

Mulally wanted to kill Lincoln as late as last year, Fields vows to turn it around

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Lincoln fans might want to give incoming Ford CEO Mark Fields a pat on the back for having a hand in saving the brand from the chopping block last year. He's among the people spearheading the rejuvenation of the division away from its stodgy image to appeal to younger customers.
According to two unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg, CEO Alan Mulally was ready to kill Lincoln last year. Following the slow production ramp-up of the MKZ combined a with a costly ad campaign, Mulally was frustrated and openly suggested dropping the brand. However, Fields and Jim Farley, Ford's marketing boss, convinced the CEO that the brand was worth saving. They also created a plan to prevent similar problems for new models in the future.
It seems that one part of the strategy may involve waiting until new models are at dealers before starting a big ad campaign for them. Lincoln global director, Matt VanDyke, recently told Autoblog that the division is holding off on a full marketing push behind the new MKC crossover to prevent the supply problems that plagued the MKZ last year. Its big offensive begins in the fall when the CUVs are at all of the dealers and consumers are at home watching more TV. VanDyke also told Bloomberg that Fields, Farley and Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, have more direct oversight over new product launches now.
