I have a 1945 Ford pick up that I got from the 2nd owner (a family friend)-he had it since the early 1960's. his kids drove it to high school, then sometime in the late 70's the original flathead died and was removed. the truck sat in the barn unitl a few years back and then he had to push it outside to make room for another truck. He couldn't bear to let it sit and rot, so he sold it to me. I have too many projects and after buying it, I realized I don't have the time to invest in it.
condition-the truck is super straight. I'll start at the front and work my way back
the grille bars have a few bent ones, but look good and they are all there. the front fenders are straight and virtually rust free- there are a few really small bubbles of rust where the running board meets the fenders (pretty unnoticable and minor but it is there) the hood is great, the hood latch works. the hinges work without binding. the cab has one cab corner that has rust through-it is the size of an index finger about 3 inches by 1 inch. other than that it is great. dent free! there is a small drilled hole in the roof where a spot light was mounted (this was a GV-Government vehicle) there is no rot or rust around the 1/8 inch hole but again it is there so I don't want anyone to be surprised. the bed is surprisingly straight. the bed rails and front panel are in great condition. the stake pockets have a bit of rust through in the bottoms of each one. holes about the size of a quarter. the wood needs to be replaced. there is no tailgate. Running boards are really nice as well. the bottoms of the doors have some rust bubbles as well.
the inside of the cab is original, down to the key in the ignition. The guage panel is all there, the floor boards are great. the dash is great as well-a little rust on the defrost slat on the drivers side. the seat looks bad, but the springs have good bounce and a little padding and a seat cover or Mexican blanket and you are set to go.door panels are all present along with the handles which all work.
the motor is long gone (not present) the transmission is there with the bellhousing to hook up to a flathead 8. the rear end turns freely. stock steel rims, all four tires hold air. there is no drive line however. the underneath is solid, no issues.
black plate California truck. comes with a clean bill of sale. this is a honest representation of this truck. it is a great solid start for a restoration, hot rod, or rat rod. feel free to email any questions. you may have. a $500 deposit is due via paypal within 48 hours of the close of auction. the rest is due before the car leaves my house(within 1 week after the close of auction) the truck is in my driveway-I don't care how you get it but that is where it is and I cannot help transport in anyway. I will however make myself available to meet any driver or new owner at my house whenever they need to get the truck home.
Check out my feedback and you will see that I am an honest seller and a good ebayer.
good luck

2014 Saleen George Follmer Edition Mustang debuts at Lagun Seca
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Saleen used the occasion of the race-fueled Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca to announce its new Heritage Collection Lineup. The event was punctuated with the debut of the collection's first member, the 2014 Saleen George Follmer Edition Mustang.
Follmer's name will likely sound familiar to fans of American racing in the 1960s and '70s. The driver competed in Formula One with the Shadow team in 1973, ran the Indianapolis 500, was the Can-Am champion in 1972 and drove stock cars in NASCAR's Winston Cup as well. The multi-disciplined driver is now one of three -the other two being Mark Donohue and Swede Savage - with the honor of upcoming, limited edition Saleen-tuned vehicles..

Ford files trademark for 'EcoBeast' moniker
Mon, Dec 29 2014Ford has done some performance stuff with its EcoBoost line of vehicles, most notably with its Focus and Fiesta ST, the new, turbocharged Mustang and the luke-warm Taurus SHO and F-150 Tremor, but it's kind of avoided going wholly bonkers. That could be set to change quite soon, judging by a trademark filing with Uncle Sam. Ford has registered the name EcoBeast with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, listing it as "automobiles and automobile engines," according to the team at Motorlix, which discovered the filing. As always, it bears mentioning that companies are constantly filing trademarks, even if a good or service never emerges with said name. We agree with Motorlix, though – it seems highly unlikely Ford is going to just let this name languish. What vehicle or engine will wear this new badge is the real question. We're leaning towards something F-150 related, based on our last round of spy photos of the new SVT Raptor, although it's impossible to say for certain what the Blue Oval has planned. Here's hoping we find out in just a few weeks when Ford brings basically all of its performance merchandise to the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, let us know what you think Ford is planning with the EcoBeast.
2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 vs. 2019 Ram 1500 vs. 2018 Ford F-150: How they compare
Mon, Jan 15 2018The full-size pickup truck market is seriously hot right now. Both Ram and Chevrolet have introduced completely redesigned trucks, the 2019 Ram 1500 and the 2019 Chevy Silverado, and as the companies slowly roll each one out, more and more information comes to light. We've put together this comparison post to help you keep track of all the features and specifications of each of these new models, along with the updated 2018 Ford F-150. Among the stats we'll take a look at are engines, power, fuel economy, trim levels, weight and more. Weight savings Both the 2019 Ram 1500 and 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 have gone on a diet for the new model year, similar to the one the F-150 went on in 2015. The Silverado is the weight-loss leader, having shed 450 pounds when comparing quad-cab V8 models. The Ram 1500 lost 225 pounds compared to the current truck. Both trucks achieve their weight loss in part due to the use of aluminum parts. On the Silverado, the hood, doors, and tailgate are aluminum, while on the Ram, just the hood and tailgate are aluminum on the body. Compare that to the F-150, which uses aluminum for all exterior body panels for a total weight loss of up to 732 pounds, which makes the aluminum-intensive F-150 the weight-loss leader. View 160 Photos Engines and transmissions There's only a bit of overlap in powertrains on the Ram 1500 and Chevy Silverado. Each has a V8 for the top engine. The Ram's is a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 making 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque. The Silverado will once again use a 6.2-liter V8 as its range topper with the same 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque as the current model. Both of these V8s boast some extra fuel saving technology. The Chevy's 6.2-liter (and some 5.3-liters) comes with the company's latest cylinder deactivation system that can shut off any or nearly all of the eight cylinders. The Ram's V8 boasts an optional 48-volt mild-hybrid system that, in addition to likely helping fuel economy, can provide up to 130 pound-feet of torque right off the line. With the Ram, fuel economy sees an improvement of 2 mpg in the city and combined ratings for 17 and 19 respectively. Highway fuel economy improves by 1 mpg to 23 with two-wheel drive and 22 with four-wheel drive. The Silverado's 6.2-liter V8 only improves city fuel economy by 1 mpg to 16, and actually loses 1 mpg on the highway. The new 5.3-liter engine with the fancy cylinder deactivation does see an improvement over the simpler version.
