Up for Auction is my 1927 wood body wrecker. I purchased this body and bed on a chassis that I think was about a 1922. The chassis was in poor shape and needed about everything. It just happen that I was able to get a 1927 Model TT chassis that looked to be in good shape. I sold the chassis that came with the body and mounted the body on this newer chassis and tried to start the engine. After a little time I was able to get it to run, but it was not running right. Pulled the head and found a crack in the block. I had another block but it was a 1925 engine and I started to rebuild it. The bearings were good on the rods and mains. I did put new high compression pistons in it. I also had all the exhaust seats replaced and all new stainless valves with new springs and lifters. I put oil dippers on the rods and drilled the rod caps. I kept the 27 transmission and totally rebuilt it. All new bushings and roller tail bearing. I balanced all the rotating parts and magnetized the magnets. Replaced the mag. coils with a rebuilt one. Rebuilt the coils, starter, and generator. It starts on mag and runs like a top. I put a warford three speed transmission in it to help it move a little faster down the road. It also makes it great for parades in the low gear too. All four tires are new. replaced any parts needed to make it reliable and save to drive. I brush painted the chassis with black chassis paint. I had to paint the hood due to dents and missing paint, but I have not painted the fenders or any of the body parts. The fenders have some rust at the lower area by the running boards. I did have a new seat cushions made for it. I put the Weaver wrecker unit on it and the fuel tank. It has a compression whistle, exhaust train whistle and ahooga horn on it. They all work great. I did put the cowl lights on it for looks and all the headlights and brake lights work great. I might have put 200 miles on it since everything was rebuilt. I have a clear Indiana title for the truck.

This wrecker gets looks everyplace I take it. I put a 1924 plate on it that my brother happen to have and it is not included with the truck!!

Please ask questions before bidding!!!!

Former Ford CEO Mulally won't run for president

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

Alan Mulally will not be following his successful term as president and CEO of Ford Motor Company with a run at an even bigger presidency. Rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would make a run at the White House sprouted after his apparent dodging of a reporter's questions about a potential candidacy during a forum in Indianapolis.
"I really think it's important that we all pull together. We really need to pull together around a compelling vision for our country and a comprehensive strategy to do it and work together. We really need to do it," Mulally said at the conference, according to The Detroit News.
He's since clarified by saying, "[I'm] honored at the suggestion, but that is not a role I am considering."

Martin Smith retires, Joel Piaskowski in as Ford Europe design chief

Thu, 29 May 2014

The mind behind the look of much of the modern Ford global range is retiring. Martin Smith, Head of Ford Design in Europe, will give up his position on July 1 and will leave the company altogether at the end of the year. He will be replaced by current Strategic Concepts Group leader Joel Piaskowski (pictured above).
Smith has led Ford of Europe design for the past 10 years, and he was partially responsible for the brand's Kinetic Design language with a large grille and swept-back headlights found on the Focus, Fiesta and C-Max, as well as several other vehicles abroad. After stepping down on July 1 until his retirement at the end of 2014, Smith will work on a project to decide the future direction of the company's look with Moray Callum, its vice president of design.
Piaskowski already has some impressive credentials in terms of automotive design as well. He joined Ford in 2010 as director of exterior design and led the teams responsible for the 2015 Ford Mustang and next-generation F-150. He was also previously design director at Ford Asia Pacific. Before working at the Blue Oval, Piaskowski held positions at Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai and General Motors. Scroll down to read the complete announcement of this changing of the guard.

FCA to pay buyers $1,700 to swap out of scandal-mired VWs

Tue, Oct 6 2015

FCA is trying to gain some sales from arch-rival VW in the competitive European market by offering potential buyers in Italy up to $1,700 to swap into an FCA group car. While the promotion isn't specifically targeted at TDI owners affected by the emissions scandal, it is clearly intended to turn dissatisfaction with VW's defeat device cheat into additional sales, Bloomberg reports. The 500-1,500 euro incentive (roughly $560-1,700, depending on vehicle) stacks on top of any other rebates or deals applicable, and applies if a buyer brings in any of Volkswagen Group's cars – including Audi, Skoda, and SEAT, among (many) others. As Bloomberg notes, it's normal for automakers to offer "conquest" deals Â– giving a buyer cash for trading in a competitor's vehicle. Those deals aren't usually limited to one company's products, however; FCA's program looks specifically to take advantage of VW's legal and public relations nightmare. FCA isn't the only automaker trying this trick in Italy. Automotive News Europe also reported that Ford is offering approximately $840 in incentives across its entire range to owners of VW vehicles seeking to trade in for a Ford. No word of yet as to whether these incentives will spread beyond Italy or to other automakers.Related Video:
