1950 Ford F1 Base 4.2l on 2040-cars
Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States
I've got too many toys, its time to thin the heard. Up for grabs is my beloved "hog truck". Its a 1950 ford f1 with killer patina. The body is very straight and super solid. The motor powering it is a good running 327 chevy with double hump heads and an edelbrock 4v carb. The motor was transplanted into the truck way back in the day using an adaptor to mate it to the stock 3 speed floor shift tranny. Shortly after I started driving the truck, 2nd gear lost a couple teeth. At that time the tranny was pulled and everything inside the case was replaced. Within the last two years the truck has been completely rewired, brakes rebuilt, new aluminum radiator, and a tune up. The seat is a bench out of an early s10. It has been reupholstered with a faux bomber jacket leather looking material, for an older look. This truck gets a crazy amount of attention cruising around town, and at car shows. There is no doubt in my mind that the winner of the auction will be very happy with this great little truck. This is a no reserve auction. However I do reserve the right to end the auction early, being the truck is for sale locally. $250 deposit through paypall due at auctions end. Remaining balance within a week in the form of cash or cashiers check. Good luck and happy bidding! More pics to come! |

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp
Mon, 17 Nov 2014
Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.
Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
Ford opens 88 new dealerships in China in a single day
Mon, 23 Jun 2014"Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last year." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China during the first half of 2014." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last month." None of those statements - even the last one - would seem unbelievable. Saying "Ford opened up 88 dealerships in China last Thursday," though, is a bit more dramatic.
Yes, on June 19 alone, Ford opened the doors on nearly 100 showrooms in the People's Republic, boosting the Blue Oval's total presence in the country to 750 dealerships. Of course, while an overabundance of dealers in the US proved troublesome for American manufacturers back in 2008 and 2009, there's no such concern in China. Considering the country's huge population and the breakneck pace of the local auto industry, you could be forgiven for being surprised Ford only has 750 outlets at this stage.
What's notable about this most recent push, besides the sheer volume of new stores, is their location. Over three-quarters of the new dealerships are in so-called Tier 4 cities, which are smaller towns that still contain millions of people. This fits with Ford's strategy in China of avoiding the bigger battlegrounds that are already dominated by competitors and focusing on setting up shop in newer markets that may have been overlooked, according to Automotive News.
