I'm selling my 1952 Ford F-1 4x4. I bought the truck a year ago and all it was was a painted shell with a 350 that barely ran. Since then I have wired, plumbed, replaced the drivetrain except the engine, and installed the interior. Drivetrain parts: new mad dog 700r4 non electric trans, rebuilt transfer, new driveshaft, new shocks, new brakes, new steering box , new power steering pump, new alternator, new water pump, new flexlite fan with 3 in spacer, new cold air intake, new edelbrock performer intake, rebuilt quadrajet carb , new battery, new electric fuel pump. Interior/exterior parts: All new glass except drivers door cracked, new wing windows and felt, new window cranks, fat cat dynamat, new carpet, new cd player amp and speakers, new vintage air heater/defroster, new wiper motor , arms and blades, new steering wheel. The entire cab was dynamatted before any interior was installed. It also comes with 5 brand new falken tires and rims, custom spare tire holder and a metal storage box in the bed.There are a couple of bad things. The bed has dings in the floor from being used and the front clip was made into a one piece tilt by the previous owner and when they did the body work it wasn't to good so you can see where there are a couple of lines in the front fenders, also the door poppers need adjusted. I'M sure I forgot something just email me and I will answer as soon as I can. Due to the fact that the winning bidder was a turd, I am having to relist. There is over 4000 dollars worth of brand new parts in the truck not counting the vehicles worth alone. This time I AM GOING NO RESERVE to show I am a serious seller. The only reason that I am selling this truck is I need a bigger cab for the family. IF I could I would keep it this has always been my dream truck. So for sure my loss is someone's gain good luck. If you don't have money please don't waste each other's time.

I wanted to help clear the condition of the truck. Overall it is in good condition. No known or seen rust there are spots through out that rocks and what not have hit the truck. I did not do the body work or paint I bought from a guy who had just got it done. At least thats what I was told. I can say that when the guy made the one piece front clip the is wear on the body where the hood rests and the is a couple of lines in the front fenders where the weight of the steel pieces have caused the lines in the paint. Thats why I am not expecting crazy money this is not a show truck. But a good ole set of wheel you can jump in to get the job done. But on the othet hand I dont want to giveit away. I figure the money it would cost in body work is all you need to spend since mechanically the truck is brand new minus the bottom end of the engine. The truck runs and drives, I use it to go all over town. The four wheel drive even works. If you buy this truck it is a get in and drive the only work needed is to adjust the automatic door poppers that I installed, other than that enjoy the ride

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford announces e-bike project, Honda Accord Hybrid availability catches up

Thu, Mar 5 2015

Supplies of the Honda Accord Hybrid have apparently caught up with demand. Honda originally launched the Accord Hybrid for the 2014 model year, but lack of availability plagued interested customers and eager dealers alike. Honda cited "component supply constraints" - likely batteries, electric motors and the like - for the lack of available vehicles. Now, "The supply of Accord Hybrids in general is in line with the supply of the regular Accord sedan," according to Honda's Angie Nucci. Read more at Green Car Reports. Apple is seeking a resolution to a lawsuit accusing the company of poaching employees from lithium-ion battery maker A123 Systems. A123 has requested a court order stopping a former employer from breaking an employment agreement, as well as keeping Apple from encouraging the person to do so. Apple has requested more time to respond to that court order. A123 has also filed a suit accusing five employees of breaking nondisclosure agreements and going or trying to go to work for Apple. Insiders say that Apple is developing an electric car that could go into production as early as 2020. Read more at Automotive News. South Dakota's Ethanol Infrastructure Incentive Program is helping retailers fund ethanol storage. The state government has set aside $300,000 as part of the program to fund ethanol storage tanks at gas stations. The program, which originally set out to reimburse retailers for building ethanol flex-pumps, is now helping them expand their ethanol capacities. Retailers can apply for funds for pumps and storage through June 30. Read more at Argus Leader. Ford is expanding its Global Mobility Plan with the Handle on Mobility electric bike experiment. The foldable MoDe:Me e-bike is for personal use and commuting, while the MoDe:Pro is built for commercial duty, with both powered by a 200-watt motor and 9-amp-hour battery. The bikes use an iPhone app called MoDe:Link, which provides various information and controls important bike functions. Through the app, the bikes offer navigation (with traffic data, available public transportation and charging locations included), with handlebar vibrations letting the rider know when and where to turn and automatically activating turn signals. The bike can sense and alert the rider to other vehicles on the roadway. Pedal assist is based on heart rate, allowing the rider to arrive at their destination comfortably. See the bikes in the video above, and read more from Ford.

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.
