CHECK OUT THIS GREAT FIND!

Being a mechanic for more than 40 years, I can say that this is the most SOLID, TIGHT 1951 Pickup I have ever found. The undercarriage is solid and rust free as you can see in the pictures of the bed.  The boards were being taken out to be refinished, to give them a shine and did not get done.  So I left them off, that way you could get a look at how clean the body underside is.

This truck was restored approximately 9-10yrs ago... Then was put in a garage for several years.  I rescued it, dusted it off, put in some gas and a new battery.  Then started it up, it runs and sounds AWESOME! 

When the motor was reconditioned, replacement parts were as follows:  NEW DISTRIBUTOR, NEW STARTER SOLENOID, NEW VOLTAGE REGULATOR AND RECONDITIONED GENERATOR.

As far as I can tell the needs it has are:  A new water pump (this one leaks), and a new starter (this one drags sometimes).

The body of the truck looks terrific in the sun or light of any kind for that matter.  All of the rubber around the windows and doors has been replaced with new.  The wheels ( KEYSTONE RAIDERS) and tires are in good condition.  The paint job could use just a little TLC, as you can see in the pics, there are a few spots that were not prepped very good~ so the paint has bubbled in a few spots and you can see it has started a little surface rusting.  Some sanding and touchup would easily take care of that.   The running boards, cab, bed, tailgate, and rear fenders are rust free and the most solid and tight I've ever seen!

Inside the cab, the seat and door panels are recovered with a matching blue and white. VERY NICELY DONE.

I have set a very LOW RESERVE on this truck...comparing it to others I've seen in the last few months, if it sells for under $12,000 you can consider it stolen from me, LOL...

The truck is on a 10 day auction but could end early due to the fact that it is also advertised locally.  If you are a serious bidder... PLEASE, FEEL FREE TO CALL ME with any questions.   636-667-1000

Happy Bidding!

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

Ford Focus ST diesel estate in track showdown with Focus ST hatch

Sun, Jan 18 2015

Diesel hot hatches are still a concept that's gaining ground. Obviously, there are none for sale in the US, but European buyers have the choice of at least the Volkswagen Golf GTD and Ford Focus ST Diesel. What better way to find out how the new, high-performance oil-burner really stacks up than for Ford to stage a race against the gasoline-fueled Focus ST? On paper, the ST Diesel is at a big performance detriment here. Its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder makes 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque compared to 247 hp and 266 lb-ft for the gas version in this race. However while not a factor for this race, the oil-burner does offer better fuel economy and produces less CO2, which makes a difference for European buyers. Ford skews the race results by giving the ST Diesel Estate a two-second head start for this one-lap battle around the Castle Combe Circuit. Also, this is a video from the Blue Oval, which is going to further minimize the appearance of weakness for its vehicles. Still, both STs really get to show off their strengths, and it's worth seeing how the sibling rivalry shakes out at the finish line.

Ford to add more than 2,000 jobs in Kansas City

Thu, 02 May 2013

Continued high demand for the Ford F-150, along with the addition of the all-new Transit series of commercial vehicles, has led Ford to announce that it will add over 2,000 jobs at its Kansas City Assembly Plant. At the time of the announcement, the plant boasts 2,450 hourly employees working on two shifts. All told, Ford will invest $1.1 billion in the Kansas City plant to expand truck production and begin producing the Transit series.
According to the automaker, fullsize truck sales are up 19 percent through April of 2013, leading to an additional 900 workers and a third shift of production for the F-150. Production of the Transit series will begin in the fourth quarter of this year, requiring an additional 1,100 workers. In addition, Ford estimates that a total of 18,000 jobs will be created by suppliers to its Kansas City plant to support the additional vehicle production.

2016 Ford Explorer revealed with new 2.3-liter EcoBoost

Wed, 19 Nov 2014



A 2.3L EcoBoost four-cylinder takes over where the old 2.0 left off, making 270 hp and 300 lb-ft.
Right now, around 23 percent of all Ford vehicles sold in the United States is a utility vehicle. By 2020, Ford expects that figure to increase all the way to 29 percent. Put simply, SUVs and crossovers are very big business at Ford. So, when it comes time to update the Explorer, Ford's original sport utility vehicle, you can be sure that a whole heck of a lot of effort goes into the process.
