1928 Model A Ford Pickup on 2040-cars
Durango, Colorado, United States
|
1928 Ford Model A Closed Cab Pickup ( aka Telephone Booth) with
Willy’s Jeep 4X4 drive train. I bought
this as a project several years ago but have now realized I will never finish
it. The first picture is from when I
bought the truck. This truck is all original Henry Ford Steel except for the firewall
and lower cowl panels which were replaced because they had been cut with a
torch. I have removed the original gas
tank to make room under the dash. There
is NO rust on the body, fenders, doors, or bed.
The fenders are clean with no cracks, dents, or splits, as are the doors
and pickup bed. Running boards are rust
free. There are 2 interconnected fuel tanks installed over the rear axle. The engine is a 350 cu.in from a ’68 Camaro according to the
block casting #’s. Rebuild .30 over with a mild Pro Comp Street cam, camel hump heads with 1.94 Intake and
1.5 inch exhaust valves, Edelbrock intake, and 4 bbl. carb. Custom exhaust
manifolds. Transmission is a rebuilt T-90 3 speed. Transfer case is a rebuilt Dana T-18. Rear end is rebuilt with 3.73 gears. I have
the gear set to rebuild the front dif from stock Willys 5.38 to 3.73. New drive shafts front and rear. The pictures speak for themselves. There are lots of new, still in the box, parts
including Griffin radiator, Chrome radiator grill, wiring harness, VDO gauges,
seat, Ididit tilt steering column, custom steering wheel, new power brake /
clutch master cylinder set, New chrome alternator, electric fuel pump,
headlight halogen inserts, new tail lights, steel floor panels, 4 brand new tires, etc. All old parts were bagged and labeled. I’ve have over $20k in this project. Brought from California and showing a CA DMV Serial #. I have a clear Colorado title showing this truck registered
as a 1928 Ford Model A pickup. The reserve is well below my investment cost. Please don’t waste my time with low ball
offers. Thanks for looking.
Happy bidding. |

Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
Ford invests $682 million in Edge-producing Canadian facility
Sun, 22 Sep 2013Ford announced that it's investing $682 million in its Oakville assembly plant in Ontario, Canada, to make it a global manufacturing plant, which the automaker also says secures 2,800 jobs there. Including this injection of cash, Ford has invested over $2 billion in Canada in the last decade, starting with nearly $1 billion for Oakville in 2004, and over $570 million for its Essex Engine Plant in 2010.
The move to make Oakville a global manufacturer of Ford vehicles means, "If consumers suddenly shift their buying habits, we can seamlessly change our production mix without having to idle a plant," says Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas.
Ford says that the latest investment will help it meet North American demand for the Oakville-produced Edge crossover, which is on track this year to beat 2007's US sales record of 130,000 Edges. The Ford Flex and Lincoln MKX and MKT are also manufactured at the plant.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
