1936 Ford 1 1/2 Ton Flatbed Truck **no Reserve** on 2040-cars

New Castle, Pennsylvania, United States

You are bidding on a 1936 Ford 1 1/2 ton flatbed truck that was originally found in Wyoming and brought to Western PA and stored in a climate controlled garage for the past 20 years.

It is a project that I will never get to and do not have room to store anymore so my loss will be your gain. I've seen a few of these trucks over the years but none in this good of original condition. It is a project truck with 98% of it's original parts in place and would be ready to drive with little effort. I recently started to get it ready for the road and just can't find the time to get it done. 

In the past 3 months I put in a new 6volt battery, replaced the original soft fuel lines, plugs and fan belt. I will also include the new parts I've started collecting for it as well as vehicle records that date back to 1974. It hasn't been started in 20 years but it was put into hibernation the proper way so with a little care and attention to detail, it will roar back to life pretty easy. The original V8 flathead has good compression and was a good runner before it was put away.

This truck was built and used as a derrick truck, or "pole derrick", and has pulled many logs out of the Wyoming wilderness over the years. The original derrick boom is no longer with us but the PTO driven winch is still in the bed and fully operational.

I only have a few good pictures of it to add to this auction but I would be more than willing to take pictures of what ever you want to see and email them to you. It will be listed local as well so I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime prior to receiving bids. Please ask any and all questions before you bid. $500 deposit will be required with balance due at time of pick up. If you plan to have it shipped, it will be up to you to arrange.

Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor to get 365-hp EcoBoost option

Tue, 20 Aug 2013

Speeders beware, the police are going to be getting quite a bit faster. Ford has just announced that it will be offering its 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged, EcoBoost V6 in the Explorer Police Interceptor. The new engine will be joining the existing 3.7-liter V6. The 365-horsepower, 350-pound-foot mill should be familiar to consumers as the powerplant that's found in the Ford Taurus SHO (and its LEO equivalent, the Taurus Police Interceptor) and the Ford Explorer Sport. It should also provide quite a kick in the pants to officers used to the naturally aspirated 3.7 and its 304 ponies and 279 pound-feet of torque.
The move to the more potent powerplant was born out of all the equipment officers need to carry on a day-to-day basis. These days, there's so much stuff that police need on a regular basis, that there's a genuine market for a faster Police Interceptor Utility, as it's known officially. The Explorer-based cruiser has already accounted for 68 percent of Ford's LEO sales in 2013, and that's with just the 3.7, and we'd only expect that number to increase once the twin-turbo, 3.5-liter V6 is available. Ford won't offer up any indication of what the take rate will be on the new engine, but we're guessing it'll be fairly high.
The success of the Explorer PI couldn't have come at a better time for Ford. The decision to end Crown Victoria production was not a popular one with police, and combined with Chevrolet and Dodge diving into the LEO market feet first, Ford hasn't been performing as well as it's wanted to. The Explorer has been helping it turn around, though. And with the inclusion of the EcoBoost, Ford also has a legit competitor for the Chevrolet Tahoe on the big utility side of the police market.

Ford celebrates 1 millionth Mustang built at Flat Rock

Thu, 18 Apr 2013

Yesterday, the Ford Mustang turned 49 years old, and Ford didn't miss the opportunity to celebrate the one millionth version of the Mustang rolling off the assembly line at the Flat Rock Assembly plant. Production of the Mustang at Flat Rock coincided with the fifth-generation design launching in 2004, and the one millionth car was the car shown above, a 2014 GT convertible painted in Ruby Red.
In total, Ford has sold more than 8.5 million Mustangs since the original car went on sale, but some of the key milestones over the car's nine years at Flat Rock include the Shelby GT-H, Bullitt, Boss 302 and, of course, the 662-horsepower Shelby GT500. Scroll down for a press release celebrating Flat Rock's milestone Mustang.

Tanner Foust tackles 'Ring in SVT Raptor

Sat, 16 Mar 2013

Here's a math problem: if Tanner Foust has a 24 hours to kill in Germany and one blue Ford Raptor, how long will it take him to decide he wants to lap The Nürburgring? Extra credit if you can get your answer precise to the millisecond.
A very truck-like and slidey lap of the 'Ring is exactly what happened when the Ford-sponsored rallycross driver took time off from set-up duties for his 'day job.' Thankfully no one even thought to worry about posting a time, but you can watch some Raptor skid marks getting laid down between the kerbs in the video below.
