This truck started out as an Atlanta, GA built V8 5 star extra cab pickup in Sheridan Blue. It has had a hard life since then. As can be seen, the body panels are dented and rusty. There is no motor, trans, radiator, driveshaft, etc. Some of the interior pieces are missing as well. I would consider this a parts truck only or possibly use the chassis, cab, and bed for a rat rod starter project. The floor is rusty, the doors are rusty at the bottom, the cab corners are rusty, the running boards are rusty, the fenders are rusty, the hood is rusty, etc. I just took out the windshield because I need the stainless so the truck hasn’t been getting rained in from the front side. I have a tarp covering the cab now. Study photos carefully as they are a large part of the description. 

The frame appears in pretty good shape and the 3 spd trans crossmember isn’t cut up like so many of these old trucks. The truck appears to be used up but never taken apart so most of the peculiar fasteners and clips are in place. The RH front tire is busted but the other three air up. The truck steers and rolls easily. The grille and front edges of the fenders would look neat on a mancave wall; Salvage Dawgs (on TV) got $1200 for this same feature on a 48-50 grille—double your money!!! 

As a reflection of the sheetmetal condition, the opening bid is set at roughly twice scrap value; first bid buys it! I can’t ship it but I will help you load it. Less than 10 feedback contact me before bidding to avoid cancellation of bid. $100 Paypal deposit due with three days of auction end; rest of payment due in cash at time of pickup. DO NOT pay full balance with Paypal or I will be forced to charge you another 3% to cover their fees. No title for this type of vehicle in GA; sold with bill of sale only. I reserve right to end auction early. I can hold truck for up to three weeks after auction ends after receipt of deposit. Jason four 7 eight, two 3 three, three 2 nine 2.

VW walks away from Aurora after self-driving startup partners with FCA

Wed, Jun 12 2019

BERLIN — Volkswagen has ended its partnership with self-driving car software firm Aurora, two days after the Silicon Valley start-up said it would build autonomous platforms for commercial vehicles with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. "The activities under our partnership have been concluded," a VW spokesman said in a statement on Tuesday following an earlier Financial Times report on the move which said VW now wanted to work with Ford Motor Co on autonomous driving. Ford's majority-owned subsidiary Argo AI is building an automated "driver" that could compete with Aurora's technology. Aurora said Tuesday "Volkswagen Group has been a wonderful partner to Aurora since the early days of development of the Aurora Driver." The company's statement added that it continues to work "with a growing array of partners." The autonomous vehicle industry is still in its infancy, and alliances and strategies are fluid. Aurora has sought to remain independent and serve a number of would-be autonomous vehicle makers rather than be acquired. Aurora, which said in February it had raised $530 million in new funding, also has partnerships with Hyundai Motor Co and China's Byton to develop and test self-driving systems for automakers, fleet owners and others. After announcing its partnership with Aurora in early 2018, VW last June began discussions with Ford to develop a range of commercial vehicles, later extending the discussions to include electric vehicles and Argo's autonomous driving technology as part of an alliance designed to save billions in costs. VW and Ford have not announced partnerships involving electric or autonomous vehicle technology. Green Chrysler Fiat Ford Volkswagen Technology Emerging Technologies Autonomous Vehicles

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.

Ford highlights new F-650 and F-750 with full-size Tonka show truck [w/videos]

Thu, Mar 5 2015

Who among us hasn't been tempted by the prospect of buying a big yellow truck and painting the name Tonka along the side? Well apparently there were some folks over at Ford who were just as tempted, only they actually had the means to make that childhood fantasy a reality in the form of the truck you see here. Revealed at the NTEA Work Truck Show this week in Indianapolis, this Tonka show truck stands nearly 10 feet tall. It's painted bright yellow, just like the one you played with in the sand box (and probably still would given the opportunity and maybe no one else looking) and has a blacked-out nose treatment and special graphics. As you can see, it's also equipped with a working dump bed, and has a truly staggering 33,000-pound gross vehicle weight rating, built to showcase the Blue Oval's new line of medium duty trucks. Of course "medium duty" is a relative term, and the new F-750 is clearly a heavier piece of machinery than the company's own Super Duty pickups, but they're lighter-duty than a proper big rig. The new 2016 Ford F-650 and F-750 are just as tough as the models they replace, but they're now quieter and more comfortable to use. In fact, Ford says its 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 diesel is now 25-percent quieter inside the cabin at highway speeds, 45-percent quieter at idle and 35-percent quieter standing outside in front of the grille. Ford notes that it's the only medium-duty truck manufacturer that makes its own engines and transmissions. That Power Stroke diesel comes with 270 horsepower and 675 pound-feet of torque as standard, but can be upgraded to 300 hp and 700 lb-ft or all the way up to 330 hp and 725 lb-ft. Commercial buyers will also be able to choose between Regular, Super and Crew Cab models with a straight-frame, dock-height or tractor-towing frames, meaning that whatever it is you've got to haul, chances are high that the new Ford F-650 and F-750 can be set up to get the job done.
