RARE 1940 Panel Delivery 1/2 ton.  A clear Kansas title is on it's way with a clear reading original frame stamped Vehicle ID number in the correct place.   **The next to last picture is a file photo of "vision completed"; sculptured to it's 1940 showroom moment (WHAT THIS PROJECT IS CAPABLE OF BECOMING, & I think this one for sale was same blue color paint).  The last photo is my fun 1940 pick up truck is last picture (seperately listed on Ebay for sale.

Solid metal throughout considering.  Some inner original floor & side wood still in place.  This truck is worth my Buy Now price even if you are going to just remove & install the body on another Ford chassis or onto a Hot Rod ready chassis.   Both doors are solid with crank mechanisms; neither are latching, hinges are solid but need correct pins (no glass other then patterns stored in cargo).  Rear doors seem decent.   

It does roll & steer.  The steering column/wheel is correct for original restore; steering wheel is not.  There are no brakes; can be put into gear for transport position lock.  Flathead motor is stuck/locked up.  Has an ""extra fender"" to replace the much dented right rear fender.  Has Mercury rippled/custom bumpers.  Rear one installed, front one inside truck cargo area.  Gas tank is totally bad; I will include a "fuel cell" with foams (about $200 value) for temporary restore fuel supply or for Hot Rod conversion.  Beauty rings included.  Call 904-881-3495 for info.  As is sale.  For sale/trade-cash up/down locally. 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


 


On Feb-01-13 at 05:20:53 PST, seller added the following information:

There is one of these (1940) a buyer can get for about the price mine is bid to now.  It does not steer, frame is shot, body is falling down around frame/dragging on ground (no floor & not much cross support), no engine, no trans, no inner woods, rear doors shot, etc.  Which means: you want this truck I have for sale that has some solidarity to it -BUCK up the moola; pay the price; accept the reality.  This truck can be lifted off the frame, repaired/prepped for original or hot rod, and bolted back down to its solid frame or hot rod chassis.  It won't crumble in the process.  $30,000 + market value when done, whether it is made original or hot rodded.  If you plan on waiting for a miracle (your price purchase around $3000), please MOVE ON.  This will sell for around my price, or never!  The frame without the body is worth $2000.  Add the body (or fabricate one?) value & ownership clear title with a factory stamped frame; walla-your purchase price is my Ebay price as you see it.  If you find another delivery truck WWII wholy grail project better than this at this price-buy it.

2015 Ford F-150 configurator is ready to go to work

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

Ford is inching towards the on-sale date for the eagerly anticipated, aluminum F-150 pickup. While we're preparing to drive the new truck (expect our take on it sooner rather than later), the best-seller has reached another, albeit more minor, milestone as its online configurator has officially been switched on.
We took to Ford's consumer website to mess about with it and see just how ridiculous of a truck we can build. Among the fun things we discovered were these two nuggets - the most expensive truck we could configure was not the top-end Platinum model, but instead the King Ranch, which rang up at $65,955. The other exciting discovery? The new truck would be available in a questionable shade called Blue Jeans (shown above with the optional contrasting Caribou paint). Yep, Blue Jeans.
You can head over to Ford's consumer page and build your very own aluminum F-150 now. Take a look.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
